Peter makes an interesting and powerful statement in his letter to the churches that fills me with wonder. He says, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.” That phrase, “born again to a living hope,” is filled with power and meaning and is worth diving into! Today we started a short series where we will break down the meaning of this statement, how Peter applies it to the entirety of his letter, and discuss what it means for us today.

After showing Thomas His scars, Jesus speaks beyond the moment—toward us. Thomas saw and believed, but Jesus celebrates those who trust without seeing. That’s faith. Today we looked at what it means to live that kind of faith—not just for salvation, but in our everyday lives. Come be part of it.

The resurrection shows us that Jesus is not distant from our pain—He moves toward it. Wherever hope has been crushed and trials have overwhelmed us, He brings new life and real victory. Today we looked at Mary Magdalene and saw how Jesus met her in her darkest moment—when hope felt completely gone—and restored it in a way she never expected. If you’re walking through something heavy, this is a space to be encouraged. A reminder that even in your darkest places, resurrection is not far off—and hope may be closer than you think.

Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey, and the crowds celebrated—hopeful and convinced He was the long-awaited Savior of Israel. But what began as celebration quickly turned. By the end of the week, it led to betrayal and the death of Jesus. From hope… to hope lost. Today, we’ll talk about what it feels like when hope slips through our hands—and how we can still find Jesus in the middle of it.

Today marks the final Sunday before Passion Week. As we near the end of Lent, we’ll focus on the nature of “waiting” on the Lord in this season and how we can respond to it. If you’re in a season of waiting for God’s movement in your life, you don't want to miss this message!

Today, we took our next step in the journey of Lent. Lent is not simply a season on the church calendar; it is an invitation to slow down, clear away the distractions of life, and refocus our hearts on what matters most: loving Jesus above all things. In a world full of noise and competing priorities, as that love grows, something else begins to change as well—sin loses its appeal. The more we treasure God, the less we desire the things that pull us away from Him. Today we will spend time focusing on that kind of love—learning to love God so deeply that turning away from sin becomes the natural overflow of a heart captivated by Him.

Today we continued our journey through Lent as we focused on the gift of repentance. Repentance is one of those church words that preachers have used for years that can sometimes feel heavy or overwhelming, and at times it can feel that way. But when practiced daily, repentance can bring life to us in a way few other things can. Today we talked about what repentance really means and how it can become a life-giving practice in each of our lives.

Today's message explores the powerful difference between remorse and true repentance. We looked at how a right understanding of Christ’s love and His finished work on the cross frees us to run to Him—not hide—when we stumble. Discover how knowing that He loved us first, even at our worst, releases us from performance-driven faith and draws us into a transforming friendship with Him.

Today we finished up our “New Thing” series. We looked at one of the most profound “New Things” from the Old Testament that is mirrored in the New Testament. We also looked at Jeremiah 31 and Hebrews 8 and at what the New Covenant means for us today!

Today we continued our conversation on Isaiah 43 and the "New Thing" God is doing. We explored three specific examples from the Old Testament and discussed how we can apply those lessons to our lives today.

Today we dove into the commitment God has given us to keep doing new things in our lives. With Isaiah 43 as our backdrop, we will focus our attention on listening to and enjoying Jesus as we follow him into the things he has for us.

Last week we laid a foundation for ourselves of how God views us and how we can experience him in times of hardship in our lives. We are his children and he fights for us. This week we will continue on in Isaiah 43 and look at God’s expectation of us and our responsibility in our relationship with Him...actions that do NOT lead to dead religion but active intimacy.

Advent is the time each year when the church slows down to focus on the words of the angels in Luke 2: "For behold I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people." What is this good news and why does it cause great joy? This holiday season, we will take a dive into both, explore their meaning, and why it can bring breakthrough in each of our lives!

Our fall series reminds us that the kind of influence Jesus had—the kind that changed the world—didn’t come through large crowds. It happened as He intentionally focused on one person in need, one at a time. This fall, we’ll celebrate stories from scripture that show us how to influence like Jesus—shaping our community with the hope of shaping the world. That influence begins One at a Time.

Today we joined believers across the globe for Pure Religion Sunday. Together, we paused to pray and reflect on God’s heart for vulnerable children and families, and celebrated the ways our church family gets to live out the call of James 1:27 in our community and beyond.
