Services & Sermons

Virtually every life transforming event recorded in Scripture includes a journey, a process the people involved go through that leads to insight, transformation and new life for all willing to engage that journey. The journey always includes elements of sacrifice, worship, trust and faith.  Christmas is about Jesus making the journey from heaven to earth, for the Magi it was the journey from wisdom to humility.  For us, it is a journey to wonder and new life.

Psalm 1 provides a blueprint for spiritual life, and helps us see how Jesus grew into His Messianic role.  Psalm 2 broadens from individual growth to God's MESSIANIC PLAN for the world and takes in the entire sweep of history.  This Sunday we are in an Advent state of mind.  Next Sunday we celebrate Christmas in July through the eyes of the Magi.  

Be strong and courageous" isn't God telling you to try harder. It's an invitation to rest in the victory He has already won.

Psalm 23 is a beautiful song of trust, declaring true freedom, daily provision, and a grace that aggressively pursues us in every season of life.

"All things work together for good." What does this famous promise actually mean? God brings true good, not through our overzealous striving, but through the empty tomb.

Naaman the mighty man of war has leprosy, but his story shows us how human pride expects a show while God brings true healing through the small, ordinary, and unimpressive things.

A more in depth look at the most popular psalm in the Bible, and also one that you have probably never heard discussed in a sermon.

While the "glory days" of the past are tempting, Elijah passing the mantle to Elisha reminds us to put down our swords and walk forward by His Spirit.

Burnout happens when we think it's entirely up to us to fix the world. Elijah flees into the wilderness and discovers how God meets us in our exhaustion, speaking in a still small voice, and freeing us from the pressure of having to do it all.

Stop exhausting yourself trying to earn God's favor through frantic human religion, and learn from Mount Carmel what it means to simply trust in what Christ has already bought.
