How can God make something good and beautiful and redemptive out of a bad situation? This week we start a new series on Joseph, one of the sons of Jacob and quickly becoming a target in his dysfunctional family. Brett Bellamy leads us into the middle of the action in Genesis, setting the stage for the trials ahead and the God who is faithful through it all.

What happens when the power of God meets a willing heart? Last week we were invited to “come and see” the empty tomb! This week Brett Bellamy will explore what it means to live empowered by the Spirit as witnesses for Christ, so we can go and tell, sharing the hope of the gospel not in our own strength, but through His power at work within us.

In the final moments of His life, Jesus said, “It is finished.” But what was He talking about? Brett Bellamy shares the incredible truth of all that “it” means, and why Christians all over the world for centuries have celebrated Good Friday and Easter Sunday above all of the other days in history.

Is sin really that bad? Brett Bellamy explores the punishment our sin demanded and how we can be accepted because Jesus was forsaken. The great truth of the gospel is that we can have a restored relationship with God because Jesus paid for all of our sins.

Forgiveness is not for the weak. As we continue reflecting on the Final Words of Christ from the cross, Brett Bellamy explores Jesus's prayer of forgiveness for those who put Him there. It's not only a powerful testimony to who Jesus is, but a call to follow His example.

From a place of great pain come words of great hope. Brett Bellamy leads us to the cross through the eyes of two criminals, and the life-giving words that Jesus spoke there. Join us as we prepare our hearts for Easter by exploring the Final Words of Christ from the cross.

What do you do when the enemy comes for you? Spiritual life can be confusing and spiritual warfare intimidating. In this final installment of One Hope, Brett Bellamy brings us Paul's encouragement to stand firm under fire because of all we have in Christ.

What is at the center of your home? In week two of Gospel Parenting, Trent Heaton explores what it looks like to bring up our children in the instruction of the Lord. This calling goes beyond managing behavior. It is about shaping hearts. When Jesus is truly at the center of our homes, it changes everything.

What does it look like to parent with the gospel at the center? Brett Bellamy opens Ephesians 6 and invites us to see parenting not as a pursuit of perfection, but as a daily opportunity to reflect the grace, truth, and hope of Jesus in our homes. As the gospel shapes our hearts first, it changes how we lead, love, and disciple the next generation.

Have you ever struggled to forgive someone, even when you know it was the right thing to do? Brett Bellamy continues our One Hope series with a second installment on the topic of forgiveness.

Serve Sunday invites us to look at the heart of Jesus and His call to serve others. Brett Bellamy will teach from John 13:1–17, where Jesus, knowing the cross was before Him, humbly knelt to wash His disciples’ feet. This message reminds us that serving is not about position or recognition, but about reflecting the love of Christ through humble obedience. As we follow His example, we learn that true greatness in God’s kingdom is found in loving service.

Have you ever considered that marriage is one of God’s loudest sermons to the world? Brett Bellamy continues our One Hope series by exploring how Christian marriage is designed to reflect the oneness, love, and faithfulness of Christ and His church. This passage calls us beyond cultural expectations and personal fulfillment, inviting us to see marriage as a living picture of the gospel that points others to Jesus.

When you think about marriage and the roles of husbands and wives, what emotions or thoughts come to mind? Brett Bellamy continues our One Hope series and helps us see the beauty of marriages that imitate Christ. This isn’t about power, but about the invitation to lives surrendered to Jesus. As we all submit to Christ first, His love shapes how we live, love, and flourish.

*This week, our One Hope, The Gospel Changes Everything series may be a sensitive topic for some as we dive deep into sexual sin in Chapter 5 of Ephesians. This teaching is not intended for young children and we invite parents to decide for their families what is best for their kids, but we feel like it is an important message for our church. Have you ever felt like you’re fighting the same fight again and again? Ben Phebus continues our One Hope, The Gospel Changes Everything series and reminds us that we aren’t fighting alone. Jesus not only calls us to walk in the light, He gives us the power to leave old patterns behind. In Him, we find real strength, real change, and real victory, from even the most destructive sins.

What do you turn to when you are tired, overwhelmed, or running on empty? Brett Bellamy continues our One Hope series and reminds us to live wisely being careful about what we allow to fill us. In this passage, Paul contrasts being “drunk” on things that promise escape or relief with being filled by the Spirit. One leaves us empty. The other brings life.
