Communion with God is more than an act of ritual. It is an invitation to a lifestyle of intimacy, dependence, and remembrance. The imagery of bread and wine shows us how easily we fill our lives with culture, work, and even good things, while neglecting the true fulfillment that only comes from remaining in Christ. In this message, Pastor Aaron Kennedy shares how the practice of Communion reminds us to reorder our priorities, abide in Christ, and find lasting fulfillment in His presence, an invitation that can transform every part of our lives.

Communion was never meant to be common. It was always meant to be communal. In a world divided by politics, culture, and pride, the table of Jesus calls believers into unity. The Lord's Supper is not just a personal act of remembrance, but a communal practice that proclaims the Gospel and reflects God's heart for unity. In this message, Pastor Michael Chandler unpacks Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians, reminding us that Communion is both a tangible expression of the Gospel and a call to discern the body of Christ rightly, by cultivating unity and welcoming all to the table.

Communion is more than a ritual. It is a sacred practice that connects us to God and one another in a deeply relational way. By tracing its roots back to the Old Testament sacrificial system, we see how Jesus fulfilled and transformed this ancient practice through His ultimate sacrifice. Communion reminds us that we are invited to fellowship with God, called to live set apart lives, and shaped by the significance of Christ's sacrifice.In this message, Pastor Michael Chandler shares how Communion reveals God's relational heart and invites us into a deeper connection with Him, making this ancient practice profoundly relevant for our lives today.

True restoration doesn't come through our own efforts but through the power of God's Spirit. When we try to rebuild in our own strength, we burn out and fall short. But when we allow God to guide the process, He brings lasting change and renewal. In this message, Pastor John Conway shares how to rebuild God's way.

When the exiles returned to Jerusalem and rebuilt the temple, they expected the glorious promises of the prophets to come quickly, but instead, disappointment set in. Over time, their devotion cooled, their worship became routine, and they began offering God only their leftovers. Through the prophet Malachi, God confronts their casual faith, their misplaced priorities, and their growing disillusionment with His timing. In this message, Pastor Mike Adkins shares how to return to wholehearted worship, align our relationships and priorities with God's will, and trust His perfect timing even when the wait feels long.

As we step into seasons of rebuilding, whether in our lives, our families, or our faith, it's easy to focus on our own strength, skills, and plans. But the truth is, lasting restoration comes only through the power of God's Spirit.In this message, Elder Elliotte Pearson shares how we can rely on God's Spirit, not our own might or power, to rebuild what's broken and step boldly into the future He's calling us to.

After years in exile, Israel had returned home, but their hearts still needed to be rebuilt. Through the prophet Zechariah, God called His people to return to Him, rebuild His temple, and trust His Spirit to accomplish the work—“not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit." Every step of obedience, no matter how small, matters in God's Kingdom. In this message, Pastor Mike Adkins shares how that same call to return, rebuild, and rely on the Spirit applies to our lives today.

In Scripture, Zephaniah's warnings of judgment against those who rejected God's authority show how their downfall was the result of aligning with lesser powers.
