Are our children at risk? Does the future generation faces new challenges with this technology? Of course! From critical thought to having good role models, the next generation faces new, ever evolving threats with the birth of such a rapidly changing technology. Its vital in a time like this we help children and young people see the only person they can trust is the living God and the importance of rooting their faith and life in the ultimate truth, The Bible

 

Join us this week as we learn how to protect the next generation, the importance of truth and trusting the one who knows all, God.

The one constant in your life will be change. Relationships, culture, and most importantly, technology. God has designed the world in such a way where things change and we have to learn how to adapt. How will we handle this change? In a season such as this, we have to trust that it’s in God's hands and what’s ahead of us is a victory already granted. Will you trust God and wear the armor He’s given or follow the whims of culture?

Join us this week as we learn about the leadership of Joshua, how things we have are given by God, and how God uses His people for His plans.

What happens when man tries to create something in his own image? What happens when we try to build things as massive as A.I.? Just like the ancient Babylonians, we too are trying to build something great out of our own image, we too are trying to make ourselves bigger through this new technology that is rapidly slipping out of control. God reminds us that He is always there and will intervene to save humanity from themselves because of His love. Although humans have nasty tendencies to destroy themselves, we are reminded that God’s love and care is greater than anything we could ever build.

 

Join us this week as we learn about Genesis, the fall in the garden of Eden, our similarities to the Babylonians and God’s plan to intervene and save us.

Where do you find security? Where do you find hope? In a world that moves faster than we can keep up with and technology we don’t fully understand, it’s vital we find a rock to stand on. It’s vital to find that security not in material things or false idols, but the one true living God and what He did through the sacrifice of Jesus. No matter what happens, God's hand is constantly moving and working together for His plans and His purpose, no matter how confusing the world may seem. Although we may not know where things are going, we know God has a purpose and can find peace in that.

Join us this week as we confront the realities of A.I. and technological advancement, the unpredictability of a fast-moving world, and where we as Christians can find peace and hope.

How can we change the world? How can we find a deeper meaning in the law? This week, we learn that there is more to simply being taught the law, there is more to the law than what it says. It points to something greater. Much like how Jesus’ ultimate goal was above the law, politics, or world domination, it was for something much bigger. To change the world. It’s understandable how these things may be difficult to grasp as Jesus’ very own disciples had difficulties understanding. But through the study of what Jesus is saying we can really catch what He’s saying.

Join us this week as we uncover where the law points, the importance in believing, how to really catch what Jesus is saying, and how we can change the world with it.

Gods love is deeper than the material things He provides. It’s deeper than the mana He gave the Israelites in the desert. The true life He has for us is not given through people or things but with a direct relationship with Him. It’s given through a relationship with the Father and the Son. We learn how a relationship with God and the Son of God is vital and how rejecting a relationship with the Son is rejecting the Father. Through this we also learn the value of communion and what protestantism means.

Join us as read through John 6 and learn of the parable of the wicked tenants, the meaning of communion and the way which eternal life is provided to us.

Have you ever struggled with a hurting or empty heart? In this week's sermon, we learn how the heart can hurt in many unique ways: when looking for approval from the world, when looking for solutions through vapid and superficial solutions to our deep struggles, and when we’re not grounded in greater love. Reading through the Gospels and Romans, we learn how God's love for us is greater than anything we could imagine and what our heart really needs. We learn how if God is on our side, no one can be against us.

Join us as we read through the Gospels and parts of Romans to learn how the sicknesses of the human heart can only be cured through a love greater than we can imagine.

This week we study John chapter 6 and learn about how Jesus fed the 5000 and make connections to the Israelites in the desert surviving on manna. Through these stories we learn the importance of relying on God to provide for our needs and how an active and consistent relationship with our creator is the what we truly need to be satisfied. Not just receiving the care He provides but digging deeper to find relationship and meaning.

Join us as we learn how God provides for His children and looks for relationship in each of us.

In this week’s sermon, we go through John 5 and parts of Ecclesiastes. We learn how material things and life accomplishments aren’t what our heart truly needs and how a relationship with Jesus and fulfillment through Him is the greatest miracle He could perform in anyone's life. We understand how Jesus makes His identity as the Son of God clear and stated, and how He changed the way the Sabbath was understood.

Join us this week as we dive into John and start to understand the importance of the Sabbath, eternal life, and a strong connection with Jesus.

As we read through Romans 7-8, we learn the story of Paul and how he gained a new understanding and a changed view of how he sees himself through Christ, and how through understanding Jesus' sacrifice, our approach to life changes. By studying how Paul describes sin, we understand the impact of following the law and the dangers of misdirected zeal.

What is the most difficult thing to accept about yourself? How does Paul change your understanding of who you are?

Join us this week as we explore Romans 7-8 and discover what it means to find fullness through not just the law but a relationship with Jesus, and understanding what it means to be changed through Christ.
