The Coronavirus has changed everything but God is on the throne!  How should the church respond to the changes and challenges that we are facing today?  Join us this Sunday for a live cast at 10:15 and the sermon to follow, “Blessed to Be a Blessing.”

This Sunday we will be continuing our series through Romans as we look at chapter 14. In this chapter, Paul calls the church of Rome to be unified despite their divisions and different convictions. While we may no longer have divisions over Kosher or Sabbath laws such as the church of Rome did, we still face many divisions within our church. Whether it’s political parties, theological differences, or how to live within our current culture, many people within our church hold different views on these topics.

Since we are not able to meet together, a video recording of the sermon is available here.

It’s an election year and we are already tired of all the advertisements, media coverage, and the nastiness that politics brings.  How does a follower of Christ respond to all of that? 

When you understand who Jesus is and what He has done for you, how do you respond to it?  What does it look like to be “all in” for Jesus? 

Ever face a person or situation where you assumed something that was later proven wrong?  Of course you have.  We have all made snap judgements of our routines as well as people.  Ever made some of those snap decisions when it comes to God? 

Most people can tell what Christians are against, but do they really know what we are for?  The Gospel is Good News and it’s the only news that will give people eternal life.  For all of us who have friends and family that don’t know the Lord and for all of those who are not sure of their eternal destination, this message is for you.

On Superbowl Sunday, it doesn't matter if your favorite team is playing or not, one team will declare victory today.  For those who follow after Christ, you, too, can declare victory in life.

Chances are this past week you said something you shouldn’t have.  I bet this last week that you felt guilty for something. What’s wrong with you? It’s the same thing that is wrong with me and was wrong with the Apostle Paul. It's the War Within

We wrestle today with a lot of the disagreements and questions that Jews and Gentiles had thousands of years ago, such as “How do we balance God’s grace and freedom in Christ with His commands?” or “What’s the difference between following God in a legalistic way versus following God by the Holy Spirit?” How do we respond today to these questions?

Martin Luther, as he spoke about temptation, said it well, “You cannot keep birds from flying over your head but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair”. The question is, “How do we keep them from building their nests?”  Join us this Sunday as we continue our “Gospel Truth” series in Romans in, “How To Avoid Temptation.”

In Leadership magazine there was a cartoon by Mary Chambers of two women in a Bible study together. One of the women says to the other, “Well, I haven’t actually died to sin, but I did feel kind of faint once.” How do we understand when Paul says in Romans 5:20, “but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more.”?

Have you sensed the darkness creeping in more and more?  I am not talking about Daylight Savings time but the physical weariness and spiritual oppression that seems so tangible in our lives today?  Join us this Sunday as we talk about both the helplessness we feel as well as the hope we can find in Christ as we look at Romans 5

If someone handed you $5.00 without any conditions, would you take it?  Jia Jiang, an entrepreneur who was paralyzed by the fear of rejection, decided to face his fears by handing out $5.00 to total strangers.  How does his experiment relate to our justification by faith?

Most of us have an occupation, but each of us also has a calling. Because of the daily tasks that demand our attention, it is easy to become preoccupied with our occupation and miss our calling. A journey with Peter through John 21 will help us discover what holds us back, and how to step out of our fears and into our calling.

Ken Sande, author of Peacemaker, recently said that Christians often think of the Gospel as two doors. The door of conversion by which we are saved, and the door of heaven, that assures us where we will go when we die.  He went on to say, that many Christians live in between those two doors according to the law.  The Apostle Paul uses the life of Abraham to show us what justification by faith looks like in our lives today.

It was two hugs that made the national news.  What would cause the brother of a slain man and a District Court Judge to hug a condemned murderer?  Join us this Sunday as we look at Romans 3 in “Getting Right With God.”

Excuses. We all make them whether it’s about the mess we left behind, why we were late for work or class, or the things we say to get out of a ticket or trouble.  But do we have any good excuses when God is the One we are talking to?  Join us this Sunday as we face the sobering reality of being in the courtroom with God as our judge.

There are so many things people have done in the name of religion to get right with God. How about you? Are you religious? Join us as we look at what it means to get right with God.

Ever jump to the wrong conclusion about someone?  Ever find yourself passing judgement on others?  Of course you have!  This Sunday, let’s take a closer look at this common sin in our lives in, “Judging Others.”
