    We all want to be happy, but did you know the more advertisements you see the less happy you are? Ads show us all the things we're missing and they promise us happiness if we get the thing. The problem is, they can't deliver on the happiness promised. If acquiring more stuff won't make us happy, what will? Jesus gives us an unintuitive truth: “It's more blessed to give that receive.” This week pastor Ivey shows us why we'll find happiness in giving rather than getting.

    We dedicate our time to the things we care about most. It makes sense for Christians to dedicate our time to God. How many hours do you dedicate to your relationship with God? Many Christians dedicate an hour a week on Sundays. Which is a good start, but a relationship needs more than that. Life is busy already! How can we give more time? If you need help in your relationship with God, watch this week's message.

    Have you ever been in a situation where God was your only hope of survival? You're not alone. That was basically the life of King David. This week Pastor Ivey takes us to the 124 Psalm, where David shows us how he has made it through life's most difficult days. On his own, David would have been a dead man, but with the Lord's help David could make it through the impossible. Watch this week as we finish out series in the Psalms.

    At the beginning of this new year we are starting a new five-week series in the Psalms. This week Pastor Ivey takes us through Psalm 1. In this Psalm the writer reveals the secret to happiness. The way he does this is kind of backward. Rather than giving us all the steps to be happy, the Psalmist shows us three places we look for lasting happiness and never find it. His surprising revelation is that we need to be less like culture and more like a tree if we want to be happy.

    Summary: Names can tell us so much about a person. So when God sent his Son he gave him four names to describe the type of Messiah he would be.

Whether your dad was good, bad, or complicated, we'll see all the ways that Jesus is the father we've all dreamed about. Then we see why that matters in our lives.

This wasn't just any child, this was God. This week pastor Ivey shows us how this child born more than 2000 years ago makes a difference in our lives today.
