As we step into the new year, we're excited to begin a new series, What's Your Next? This particular message focuses on Loving Christ. In every season, there's a next step to grow deeper in faith—whether through the Bible, worship, prayer, or praise. Take a moment to reflect: What's one intentional step you can take this year to grow closer to Christ?

Who really can follow Jesus? Many people think they've got that question figured out! The truth might be obvious, but is your faith obvious?
In our fast-paced world, it's easy to overlook the importance of rest, but God has given us a special day for just that—the Sabbath. What does it mean for us as Christians? Are we free to spend it however we choose?
Another way to spend time with God is by fasting. Romans 12:1 says, "I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. This is powerful! You can turn a basic need into a desire for the Lord! Learn how this Sunday, Pastor Greg continues the series, Follow Who?: Follow in the New Way.
We have been learning who the one we follow really is in the the Gospel of Mark. In this message we see Jesus as a healer, one who does miracles. This is much deeper than what it looks like on the surface.
Elder Jack Jones inspires us to reflect on our faith journey. Are we truly following Jesus by fully placing our confidence in Him, or are there signs that our faith might be wavering?
Jesus is: __insert the blank___Learn who Jesus is as our Savior, the chosen one, promise keeper, all powerful, perfect, and more. He is omniscient.
Learn how to be ready to fight the spiritual battles.
The church can face anything when it's filled with leaders who adopt the attitude of Jesus, followers who accept their authority, and when both exhibit a spirit of humility.
When we think of suffering, often we think of pain and hurt. Let's look at how to expect, prepare, and accept four important truths about suffering that equip us with a different mindset. Hear how suffering produces joy, blessings and more.
Last week we learned that suffering can be a sign of victory for Christ. But how do we keep suffering over and over for Him? Peter gives us a final summary in this section.
What is sin? How are you sinning? Why are some convicted with sin and others aren't? How are we to reflect in God's image?
We're back in the book of 1 Peter and we will finish it in this series of messages. In 1 Peter 3:13-17 he calls his readers to not give up on their passion for the good, and it's for a very good reason.
Every structure needs a strong foundation. In the vital family a foundation is built when we hear and do the words of Jesus. We look at that in this conclusion of this series.
We don't learn everything on our own. We've all had people in our lives showing us the way—some good, some not so much. So, in the vital family, how do we choose others to guide us well and how do we guide others well?
In our culture it's easy to treat church as something we just consume, like we do an amusement park, a concert, or a movie. Just another thing on our list that we "do." But what is that teaching the next generation?
In this new sermon series, Vital Family, we'll learn what one thing can lead to more satisfaction with your life, increased health, better marriages, and your children being less anxious, depressed, and lonely.
Here's a bonus assumption to add to our last series on assumptions people have about Christianity: that churches are all about money. Let's see what God's word has to say about it.
Some people think Christianity is just another self-improvement movement but Jesus says self-improvement isn't enough. How can we truly be helped?
Not everything has to be political, but a lot of people think Christianity is just about conservative politics. Is Christianity just about being on the right, politically?
In this message we look at the assumption that Christianity hates... (fill in the blank). Yet, God's word clearly tells us we're to love all people. Let's unpack these 2 disparate views and learn what to do about the huge gap between them.
