In order to extend the love of God to others, we must be on guard against our own self-righteousness. Jesus tells a parable that challenges those who look religious, but don’t have the heart of the Father. From Luke 15

We live in a world that gives two conflicting messages. One says “you are enough” and the other says “you aren’t enough.” One leads to arrogance and the other to defeat. But the message of Jesus acknowledges our insufficiency and the all sufficiency of Christ. From Romans 3 and Ephesians 2 // Pastor Tony Mest

Community is an essential part of our walk and growth in Christ. Without it we can’t fulfill the command to love one another. But how do we build that? From Romans 16 & Galatians 6.

Much of our life is spent avoiding pain. Yet pain teaches us that something is wrong and needs correction. Similarly, God uses our pain to grow us into greater Christlikeness. From Romans 5 & 1 Peter 4.

God works and provides for us in amazing and miraculous ways. Yet we don’t stand on the sidelines. He has invited us to work with him. Are you responding to his invitation? From Matthew 17:24-27.

One of the ways God grows us is through his discipline in our lives. While it is common to resist or ignore it, the writer of Hebrews counsels us not to take it lightly. From Hebrews 12.

Special guest speaker Paul Evans is bringing the Message this morning.

Today’s special guest speaker is Tony Tripi. Prayer can be so powerful when we understand how to pray. Tony will unpack several different texts throughout the Bible, teaching us how to pray while also showing us that God wants us to build a relationship with him through prayer.

Join us as we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

We are in Matthew chapter 2 this morning looking in to the the journey of the 3 three wisemen. Even though the wisemen had a shining star to follow and show the way they still got lost. Instead of giving up, Jesus was worth the journey. Today we hope to encourage you not to give up. No matter how far or impossible the destination is, that Jesus is worth the journey.

This isn’t an ordinary Christmas message. This is the scandal of Christmas. In this series we will open up the book of Matthew and take a deep dive into Mary and Joseph and the controversy surrounding Jesus’s birth. Today we will find out that God had a plan for Mary and Joseph that the world just didn’t understand.

Night to Shine is a ministry of the Tim Tebow Foundation that celebrates individuals with special needs. Today, we celebrate the impact of this ministry.

As the Israelites are called to defend their treaty with Gibeon, they come against a powerful enemy. As he has done before, God moves the resources of heaven to defend and fight for his people. He has also done the same for you in Christ. From Joshua 10.

Joshua falls for big deception that prohibits him from being fully obedient to God’s instructions. How will the Israelites handle the mistake and move forward? What the enemy intends for destruction, God, in his mercy, can redeem for his purposes. From Joshua 9.

After suffering an embarrassing and costly defeat, God gives Israel a second chance to walk in obedience. When they do, they will experience his victory. When they experience it, they recommit follow his ways. It is a great reminder we can experience that same restoration. From Joshua 8.

As the Israelites move beyond Jericho in their first big victory, they suffer a terrible defeat in the next city. The reason? One person’s secret sin defiled the whole nation. In his attempt to cover it up, God uncovered it. However, we can choose a different way. When we uncover our sin, God covers it with his grace and mercy. From Joshua 7.

The Israelites were outmatched, yet God wanted them to take the city of Jericho. To make matters worse, God’s battle plan seemed ludicrous. But when the Israelites obeyed, victory came. What was required of them is also required of you. From Joshua 6.

As the Israelites cross into the land, God has a couple of first priority items of business to do that they have neglected. As they renew the covenant and celebrate the Passover, God prepares them for the journey ahead. We need the same preparation as we live our lives as well. From Joshua 5.

We are in Joshua 4 and the Israelites are still crossing the Jordan. God has done the impossible by splitting the Jordan river in half just like he did for Moses.

Today we learn about being a Living Stone a stone that tells the story of God’s glory.

As the Israelites approach the flooded Jordan, God instructs them to cross into the land he promised to give them. But how? After 40 years, why now? God was revealing something to them that we need to learn as well. From Joshua 3.

As the Israelites get ready to cross the Jordan, two spies encounter a lady in Jericho named Rahab. By external appearances, she is an unlikely to be much value. But God had a different story in mind. This outsider becomes a central figure in the lineage of Jesus. From Joshua 2.

Everyone wants to be strong & face obstacles with courage. But where does that inner fortitude come from? As Joshua faces an enormous challenge ahead, God provides insight not only on what he is to do, but what will sustain him in the battle. From Joshua 1.

After their deliverance from slavery, God gives his people a vision for their future. The odds seem overwhelming and everyone wants to turn back. Only two, Joshua & Caleb, lean in with faith. Will we be like Joshua or the crowd? From Numbers 13-14.

The return of Jesus may feel like it has taken forever. Yet the confession of the church has always been, “Jesus is coming soon.” Because it is soon, Peter encourages believers to make every effort to be ready to welcome him. Are you ready and excited? From 2 Peter 3:3-14.

There is a lot we can worry about in the world. Left unchecked, anxiety creates numerous problems. But God is big enough to handle the burdens we carry and invites us to release them to him. When we do, we resist the attacks of the enemy. From 1 Peter 5:6-11.

Marriage is hard work, even in the best of circumstances. Peter speaks to husbands and wives to challenge them to go against the cultural norms and focus on the most important thing. In doing so, he gives hope to those who are struggling in this primary relationship. From 1 Peter 3:1-7.

Our great enemy certainly uses outside influences against us. But he also has a strategy to use our own desires to self sabotage. Peter wants believers to have a heads up and a plan to resist his tactics. From 1 Peter 2: 11-17

In light of God’s work in our lives and his calling to be holy, some old things need to go. When we get rid of those things, we desire to be filled up by him. Just as a newborn baby craves milk, the born again believer should crave to be fed the word. From 1 Peter 2:1-10.

Christians swim upstream in the world. The call to “be holy” is an enormously difficult, but essential in living a life for God. How can we do that? Peter offers us some instruction. From 1 Peter 1.

Trials and hardships are a universal human experience. It is so easy to wonder why we are experiencing this pain. In today's text Peter is going to help the believers understand that God is using those trials to refine their faith and make it stronger. From 1 Peter 1:6-9.
