In Colossians 2:1–10, Paul warns the church against teachings and philosophies that could lead them away from the truth of Christ. His message is clear: when Christ is above all and we build our lives completely around Him, we experience a fascinating journey of faith, rooted in truth and protected from deception.

In Colossians 1:15–18, Paul reminds us of the supremacy of Jesus Christ. He is the image of God, the Creator and Sustainer of all things, and the Head of the Church. Christ needs no additions or improvements—He is above all, deserves first place in everything, and is more than enough!

n this message, Personal Worship Practices, we explore practical ways to deepen our relationship with God through daily personal worship. Worship is more than what happens on Sunday morning—it’s about intentionally seeking the Lord, delighting in His presence, spending time in His Word, singing His praises, confessing our sins, and bringing our needs and the needs of others before Him. Discover simple, meaningful practices that can help you grow in your faith, develop a deeper prayer life, and make worship a daily part of your walk with Christ.

Through Psalm 100 and other passages of Scripture, we’ll explore how worship shifts our focus away from ourselves, cultivates a heart of gratitude, and changes the way we see our problems. Even in life’s most difficult seasons, we can choose to rejoice in the Lord, trusting that He is greater than any challenge we face.

What does personal worship look like? Pastor Scott explores Jesus’ example in Mark 1:35, reminding us to prioritize time with God, seek Him away from distractions, and draw near to the Father with hearts devoted to Him.

In this message from John 4:24, we explore what it means to truly worship God together as the body of Christ. Pastor John looks at the biblical meaning of worship and the five essential aspects of corporate worship: the Word, prayer, singing, giving, and fellowship.

In Romans 11, Paul points us to the unfolding mercy of God throughout redemptive history. From the faithful remnant preserved by God, to the Gospel reaching the Gentiles, we see that God’s purposes are not finished.

Through Romans 10:1–16, we’ll discover how God’s saving plan moves us from being lost to being saved, and how the Gospel is carried from one person to another through those who are willing to share the Good News.

Discover what Romans 9 teaches us about God’s sovereignty, His calling, and how our response to Jesus reveals where we stand with Him.

In Judges 6–7, we discover a powerful principle: God wants to work IN His people before He works THROUGH His people. Before asking, “God, change them,” we may need to ask, “God, what do You want to change in me?”

In this message, we’ll discover what forgiveness truly means and what it doesn’t mean. Forgiveness isn’t forgetting, excusing, or pretending the hurt never happened. It’s choosing to release the pain and the person into God’s hands, allowing Him to heal what has been wounded within us.

In this message, we’re reminded that true security isn’t found in what we accomplish, what others think of us, or what we can control it’s found in Christ. When our identity is rooted in Him, we can surrender our fears, let go of control, and live with confidence in who God has called us to be. Our security isn’t in ourselves. Our security is in Christ.

Have you ever felt like you don’t belong? In Week 3 of Whole Heart / Broken Heart, we look at the deep need for acceptance and the truth that, through Jesus, we are accepted and adopted into God’s family.

In Part 2 of our Whole Heart / Broken Heart series, Losing Heart, we explore the epic struggle for our hearts and the ways we can become disconnected from the God who created us for love, relationship, and purpose. Though we were created in the image of God and designed to live from the heart, sin has separated us from God and turned our focus inward toward ourselves.

Join us for Whole Heart / Broken Heart, a new series exploring what Scripture teaches about emotional and spiritual health. Together, we'll discover how our hearts influence our thoughts, choices, relationships, and walk with Christ. Through God's Word, we'll learn to recognize the warning signs of an unhealthy heart, guard it with wisdom, and allow Him to restore and strengthen us from the inside out.
