A Timberline Church family, passionate in spending our lives sharing the life and love of Jesus! Let. Love. Live!
"Legacy" – Celebrating Our Senior Pastor's Final Service Join us as we honor the incredible journey and faithful leadership of our Senior Pastor in his final service before retirement. His legacy of love, service, and unwavering faith has shaped our church and touched countless lives. "Well done, good and faithful servant!" – Matthew 25:21
On the greatness of Easter Weekend we celebrate what it means to live under the rule and reign of King Jesus!
If Thanksgiving is the season of gratitude, and Christmas is the season of generosity, then Easter is the season of forgiveness. So if it is such a prominent topic in our Christian faith, why can it be so hard to talk about?
Join us for a powerful Orphan Care Weekend as we explore Adoption as a Mission—a call to change lives and reflect God’s heart for the vulnerable. Together, we’ll dive into how adoption and foster care embody the Gospel, bringing hope, love, and transformation to children in need.
This weekend concludes Luke’s account of Paul’s life, Luke’s account in its entirety, and the last weekend Timberline Church’s Lead Pastor, Dary Northrop, will be with the Timberline Windsor church family. And yet, somehow, the main point isn’t about any of that… It all comes down to Acts 28:31!
Headed to Rome to stand trial, Paul’s journey was marred by hardship & doubt. But God meets him in the midst of the despair, promising him and all who are with him deliverance. When we face despair and then the divine assurance of salvation, will we respond in action? (Why wouldn’t we?!)
Paul’s arrest continues to play out like a courtroom drama. All the while, however, Paul has never been more sharp, and never been more focused. The ways in which this man’s faith is bolstered in the midst of hardship and injustice teaches us something powerful and convicting about the truth he was living and dying for.
As Paul turns to Jerusalem (in many ways modeling Jesus's fateful turn toward Jerusalem), we explore ways in which God shares wisdom and even caution with people, but perhaps not to deter them but to more fully prepare them. When facing some of the greatest hardships (as Paul undoubtedly was), God often graciously takes steps to ensure we have counted the cost and fortified our strength, and yet perhaps not our full understanding.
In Paul's final stretches of ministry free from imprisonment and impending martyrdom, we find him taking long voyages and long stretches of time to speak with and encourage the believers. The ways in which Paul sets his priorities in these final days reminds and challenges us to proactively set our priorities so that distractions and disorientation cannot disrupt the greater plans of God in us and through us.
Across a power-packed passage, this weekend we find a special opportunity to lean into the Lord in seeking healing. What does it mean to trust the Lord in seeking physical healing when we are not promised a particular outcome?
Today we explore the Apostle Paul's missionary journey to Corinth, where he faces opposition but remains steadfast in spreading the Gospel. The Gospel is available to all people, regardless of their background or past. Drawing parallels between ancient Corinth and modern cities like Las Vegas, we see how the Gospel can shine brightly in the midst of a sinful world. Through the story of Paul and his encounter with the synagogue leader Crispus, we encourages believers to share their stories of transformation and to continue spreading the hope of Jesus to those who are far from God.
Across three different situations, and through the faithful missions extension of Paul and company, the Gospel meets communities uniquely where they are. God's faithful reach to all people is greatly highlighted this weekend, and is the sort of thing that each of us has the opportunity to participate in. God meets individuals and communities in the midst of their unique questions, and then so much more!
Facing hardship, opposition, and violence, Paul and Silas find themselves imprisoned, only to take that opportunity to begin a midnight prayer and worship night. That point, that moment served as the pivot-point for everything in the story. Then and now, the truest Freedom Fighters proclaim that worship changes everything!
The fingerprints of God are found all over the movements of the very-early-church. In this weekend’s passage we find God powerfully prohibiting, redirecting, and opening peoples’ way to his will. Where are God’s fingerprints in our own lives? Where are we yielding to his surpassing power?

Join us for our annual Family Service with message led by Pastor Dick Foth
Joseph was in for quite the rude interruption with the pregnancy of his fiancé, Mary. But God met him in the midst of his doubt and pain and brought him divine reassurance. Joseph’s experience reminds us that while God doesn’t always do EASY – He does always do FAITHFUL!
Mary was an incredibly impressive teenager, harshly interrupted and yet humbly submissive to the promises that God was giving her. Her call to ‘magnify the Lord’ leads us to a weekend of reflection, perspective, gratitude, and praise.
In this Advent Series (Divine Interruptions) we will focus on the angelic messengers who foretold of the coming of Jesus - each bringing the “Good News” that would radically change (a.k.a. INTERRUPT) and shape the lives of those who heard and received it. We will explore the different ways the people responded, the different positions they found themselves in, and ultimately the unexpected way the creator of the universe came to rescue his people.
On Paul and Barnabas’s first Missionary Journey they encounter a people understandably all over the place without a firm foundation upon Jesus. Ultimately the truth they must come to not just cognitively believe but practically live out is, ‘If God has come in the likeness of man, listen to Him!’
In the midst of vast expansion and an explosion of influence of the early church… comes conflict. For the church, then and now, it is critical that we know who it is that we are facing in conflict, and that we ‘fight’ accordingly.
Peter yet again is miraculously rescued from what would've been certain martyrdom under Herod. Elsewhere there are people of the church that tragically lose their life to the fury of persecution coming against the young church. This is a lesson of the sovereignty of God - So how can we make sense of his reign when he seems to act at some points and not at others? Join us on this journey this weekend.
We assume God’s will is to take us the shortest, most efficient distance between where we are, who we’re dealing with, what it takes, to where he wants us to be. But God often uses inefficiencies and detours, because he’s INVITING! God’s purposes and his church are supposed to take what he does in and through us from the INSIDE-OUT!
Synopsis: Ever questioned God’s movements or his timing? Ever found it difficult to extend forgiveness to another? Ever found yourself disoriented and maybe even anxious in waiting? This message is for you!
God’s Kingdom reaches EVERYONE! Journey with Jesus’s movement through the young church and glean the ways God is still calling ordinary disciples to do extraordinary things.
A young man named Saul becomes the pivot point, not just for the book of Acts, but for the expansion of the Gospel worldwide. While the enemy intended to snuff out the expansion of the church, Jesus in turn begins his surprising pursuit of the church’s greatest enemy – and of you and me!
Right in the very midst of massive church expansion is a serious cost in people’s lives. If it was true with Jesus, if it was true with the early church, if it’s taught throughout the New Testament, why would we think it would be any different for us? Is our faith worth dying for? How about living for?
In this message Pastor Mackenzie Matthews explores the power of living “All-in” as we see it in Acts chapter 4 and 5. We unpack the shocking moment of dishonesty with Ananias and Sapphira, and how we approach knowing ourselves honestly before God.
When God desires to do a fresh thing in us and through us, his Spirit enlarges our capacity and empowers us. The more we recognize and live in this sort of filling the more boldly we will live. But for lives that may already feel (or truly be) full, how much more ‘full’ can we get? How full is full?
On the day of the birth of the Church, we see the Spirit of God working in both high-drama and faithful obedience spaces. The very same God is in power and at work in our seasons of high drama/intensity and also steady seasons of faithfulness.
Acts chapter 1 begins the hinge-point, transition-point between Luke's Gospel of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and the accounts Acts of the Apostles. Postured in awe and amazement with everything they have seen and experienced from Jesus, the final words of Jesus calls his people to wait upon him to enter into what he has for them next.
Join us as Pastor Brent brings us the final stand alone message of the summer as we lead into our fall series on The Book of Acts next week.
Because our souls so often need a refresh and perspective away from ourselves, Pastor John leads us on a journey of overviewing the book of Revelation for this week’s stand-alone sermon.
Join us as our Windsor TSM director, Sami Gutierrez delivers the message for our annual Student Weekend Celebration
Join us for a special message from our TSM Director, Sami Gutierrez
What is God looking for in our extensions of generosity (giving, serving, etc.)? Why would an Almighty, limitless God care about the details of the ways in which his people do (or don’t) give? How does giving practically and spiritually impact our lives and the Kingdom?
In baptism season in the life of the church, Pastor John explores Jesus’s baptism in light of the Great Exchange it extends to all who choose to accept it.
For a stand-alone weekend, Pastor John explores the ways Jesus’s call to ‘turn the other cheek’ is even more shocking than most of us realize. Jesus is not merely posturing his people in the midst of conflict and violence, he is presenting a way to overcome!
Finishing off the Walk of Becoming series on the Fruit of the Spirit, Pastor Mackenzie leads us in an exploration of self-control. While in many ways self-control entails a restraint of things, it also develops a freedom and a release that is unparalleled in the Christian life.
Experiencing the fruit of gentleness stands in opposition to aggression and dominance. And yet a gentle response can be strong, firm, and clear - but without any of the harmful aspects attached to those things. Especially these days, it seems like there is not a lot of gentleness going around - which is why it is such radical experience and development for us all.
Especially in Christian circles, we proclaim God’s faithfulness (his worthiness of our belief, our trust) - and rightfully so. But just because this may be true, what happens when we are not seeing it or experiencing it? What are we supposed to do when God isn’t showing up like we thought he would?
What is 'goodness'? How do we define this flavor of the Fruit of the Spirit? In order to grasp what it is we are experiencing in the goodness of God, we need to first come to grips with how God defines goodness (instead of our own definitions and standards). From there, because we increasingly look like those we are around the most, we will increasingly see goodness grow in us and through us.
If we allow ourselves to focus on how God’s kindness is lavished upon us as a response to our sin, we will discover how incomparably rich we are – and how rich in kindness we can afford to be.
Among all of the Fruits of the Spirit, 'patience' tends to be the one most people desire the least. But more than something we need to work on, the patience of the Lord towards us and within us develops something entirely different than what our flesh or the world can offer. Join us in 'Experiencing Patience' this weekend!
Peace, shalom, with God and then with one another has always been a challenge for the people of the church. Yet it is a vital fruit of the Spirit's presence and movement in our lives. How might we posture ourselves to receive this fruit anew and then allow it to overflow in and around us?
The second fruit of the Spirit found in Galatians 5 is Joy. Far surpassing happiness, and then enduring beyond all circumstances, ‘joy’ is one of the most precious productions of the Spirit we experience!
While it might seem obvious, the nature of love is a foundational matter at the core of God's very identity as well as the fruit he desires us to experience. More than just an emotion or a state of being, love is very practical in the relationships and world around each of us.
As an introductory weekend to the Walk Of Becoming series we will be in for the next 10 weeks, Pastor John shares the critical context behind the Fruit of the Spirit. From that, we learn that the Christian life is not merely about performance but transformation!
