God is searching for those who look to Him with expectancy, hope, and a willingness to wait upon His promises. When we surrender fully to Him, we are open to what God wants to do even in the ordinary moments of life. To live God-expectant is to wake up each morning believing that God is present, active, and speaking in our daily routines. This year, let us lean forward with faith—seeking God, listening for His voice, and trusting Him in every season.

In this message Pastor Evan encourages us to let the first coming of Christ, Christmas, point us to the second coming of Christ and how that should shape the way we live. Because Jesus is coming back may he find us being watchful and waiting for him.

Perhaps the hardest word for believers in Christ to hear is wait. We want to obey, we want victory over struggles in our lives, we want to see God have His way, and we long for the return of Christ. And we want to know it now! Why would the Lord have us wait? What profit is there in waiting?Our Bible School Principal, Jon Forrest, joins us today for the first episode in our three-part series leading up to Christmas.

This sermon explores Mary's song (the Magnificat) as a model for experiencing joy that transcends circumstances. Pastor James examines how Mary, despite facing potentially devastating circumstances as an unwed pregnant teenager, responded with profound joy rooted in her personal relationship with God and His faithfulness throughout history. The message challenges believers to move beyond circumstance-based happiness to a deep-seated joy that comes from knowing God personally, spending time in His Word, staying connected to community, and maintaining a kingdom perspective that reverses worldly values. The sermon emphasizes that joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit that provides strength during trials by focusing on God's promises rather than temporary conditions.

Steve welcomes Ivey Gruber, President of the Michigan Talk Network, for a heartfelt and eye-opening conversation about faith, family, and the state of our culture. The two share their personal journeys of growing deeper in their faith and why planting firm roots in the church has never been more important.
