It's not afraid of adversity. It doesn't run from trial. Sickness, poverty, death.. nothing stops it. Joy just keeps going--thriving--deep down in your soul. And with joy comes peace and strength.

True ownership requires sacrifice, perseverance, and a willingness to step up even when the work is difficult. On Sunday, October 25, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan shares a powerful message on ownership, reminding us that we are building something bigger than ourselves

Vision is more than a catchphrase or an inspirational slogan. Iit gives your life direction, fuels your purpose, and helps you pursue what God has called you to do. On Sunday, October 18, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan reminds us when God gives you favor, you need a vision to live it out.

Some days, working hard is easy. Some days, it’s difficult. Some days, it feels impossible. On Sunday, October 11, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan challenges us to trust God, work hard, and be encouraged. Faith in action can lead to favor.

God calls us not only to pray, but to take action. Like Nehemiah, we must remember that the One who is in us is greater than anything we face.

On Sunday, October 4, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan continues his FInding Favor sermon series, challenging us to take steps of faith and move in God's calling.

Faithfulness is more than a spiritual principle. It’s an everyday commitment that demonstrates integrity and loyalty to those around you. God honors our commitment to Him. God honors our faithfulness to others. On Sunday, September 27, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan begins the story of Nehemiah and shares four ways to live faithfully: where you are, through fear, with integrity, and with favor.

If you want to see God’s blessing and favor in your life, it doesn’t begin with making a plan or presenting God with a list of demands. It begins with reflection. It begins with humility, alignment with God, and, perhaps most importantly, repentance. On Sunday, September 20, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan preached from the book of Nehemiah and challenged us with three questions we must be willing to ask ourselves if we desire to walk in God’s favor.

Maybe you have big things ahead right now. Or maybe you are tired of being in a rut. Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed. Or maybe you are excited about the days ahead. No matter what you are facing, you need God's favor. You need God to work on your behalf. On Sunday, September 13, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan started a new sermon series, Finding Favor, based on the books of Ezra & Nehemiah.

The time to live faithfully and make a difference for eternity is now. On Sunday, September 6, 2026, Pastor Chad Gilligan wraps up the Cautionary Tales sermon series and warns us that Jesus is Coming Soon.

Playing it safe can feel like the wise thing to do. We often think that if we avoid risks, protect what we have, and stay comfortable, we are making the right choices. But in Matthew 25, Jesus shows us that playing it safe can actually cost us everything.

God has entrusted everyone with something. It may be money. It may be opportunity. It may be influence.
