2024 Fall Sermon Series
August 25 – October 27, 2024
In music composition, there is a type of chord that is played to create tension. It’s called a chord of dissonance. Composers will use this chord in their compositions to create feelings that long for resolution. They may prolong this dissonance so that when the chord of resolution comes, it is a much welcomed and anticipated feeling of relief.
Often times in our culture, it may feel like we are living through one big chord of dissonance, and this may create feelings of hopelessness as we long for resolution. What is the Christ follower to do in seasons of such conflict? How do we not get swept up in the conflict and emotion of the day?
Join us this Fall as we learn how we can sing a song of resolution, a song centered on living out the Fruits of the Spirit (peace, patience, self control, love, etc), that can only come from loving Jesus and having his Spirit inside of us, so that we can provide a sense of relief and resolution to the world.

Lent Sermon Series 2024
2/18/2024 – 3/31/2024
The gospel of John tells us in the beginning of his text, that Jesus came into the world, and to His own people, but the world and His own people knew Him not.
They did not understand the weight of the importance and truth of this newborn baby at Christmas, nor the engaging and convicting teacher before them, nor the significance of His life and ministry among them.
Some called Him Elijah or John the Baptist, others called Him a prophet of old that has returned. Other than Peter, even His disciples were not sure of who exactly they left everything to follow.
Fortunately for us, we have the Gospels in the New Testament to show us exactly who He is. The Gospel of John records seven specific signs Jesus performed to demonstrate to the world the weight of exactly who He is–The Son of God…The Christ.
Journey with us this Lenten season as we discover each of these signs and how they point to the glory and knowledge of Jesus the Christ, so that we may have full eternal life in His name.

Ezekiel: From Dry Bones to Resurrecting Grace

Feb '24
2024 Main Sermon Series
January 7 – August 18, 2024
The Old Testament is filled with several books of prophecy by people raised up and called by God to deliver a message to His people. These messages are interwoven with God’s enduring love, grace, and mercy, while also dealing with His sinful people who so often chose to disobey and reject Him.
Because of this subject matter, the Old Testament can be heavy material. The Israelites did not welcome these prophecies, which served as warning of judgement and impending destruction to come due to their sinfulness and rejection of the one True God. And now, modern day Christians can also balk at the seemingly harsh message from the Creator of the Universe, however, there is good news to be found in the midst.
God desired to breath new life into the “dry, dead bones” of His people, and He desires to do the same to the rest of the world – you and I – to bring new, resurrected life that we crave.
Join us in 2024 as we study one of these books, Ezekiel, and discover the tremendous message of God’s glory, mercy, and restorative grace that runs throughout the book even in the midst of a broken imperfect world, inhabited by broken, imperfect people.

Advent 2023 Sermon Series
December 3 – December 25 2023
The season of Advent, leading up to Christmas morning, can be one of the busiest and spiritless times of our lives.
The end of the year is drawing near, school projects are due before Christmas break, cookies need to be made, presents need to be bought, and deciding how the family is going to split their time up visiting everyone can become a huge joy kill during a time when we are supposed to be experiencing the true joy of the Savior.
Is that God what desires for us? Or does He have something better in mind as prepare for the birth of His Son, Jesus?
Jesus is the embodiment of the Sabbath Rest God gave to creation in the beginning. God set apart the seventh day to rest from His work, so that the fruit of His work would experience who He truly is as He dwelled with them.
As we set apart this time of the year called Advent, let us find the moments to experience rest from the busyness of this season, and experience who Jesus truly is–God with Us, Emmanuel.
