As we conclude our I Am More series, Pastor Joe reminds us that the Gospel of John was written with purpose–to give us enough to believe. Through John 20:31, we see that faith in Jesus is personal, rooted in the truth that he is both Savior and Son of God. And in believing, we don’t just gain knowledge–we step into the kind of life Jesus promised: full, abundant, and unshakable. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Zach walks us through John 15 and reminds us that healthy things grow–but that growth isn’t actually our job. Using the image of the vine and branches, he shows that real spiritual growth comes from staying connected to Jesus, not from trying harder. Instead of striving, we’re invited to simply abide–to stay with him–and trust that he will do the work in us. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series this Easter, Pastor Zach walks through the story of Thomas in John 20 and what it means to wrestle with doubt in light of the resurrection. He reminds us that Easter isn’t just a celebration–it’s a claim that demands a response, because if Jesus truly rose from the dead, it changes everything. Through Thomas’ story, we see that doubt isn’t something to hide from, but something that can actually lead us closer to truth. Pastor Zach shows that Jesus meets us in our questions, invites our investigation, and calls us to belief grounded in real evidence. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Joe walks through Jesus’ powerful claim in John 14 that he is the way, the truth, and the life. In a moment when the disciples were anxious and uncertain, Jesus offers both clarity and comfort–showing that the path to God isn’t a set of directions, but a person. Pastor Joe unpacks how Jesus reveals who God is, exposes our need for him, and ultimately offers himself as the only source of true life. This message invites us to stop striving and instead trust the One who has already made a way. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Zach looks at John 11:17–27, where Jesus Christ declares, “I am the resurrection and the life.” In this message, we see how real death and loss can lead us into quiet resignation, believing that what’s broken, gone, or lifeless in our lives is beyond hope. But Jesus shifts the focus from a future promise to a present reality. Resurrection isn’t just something that will happen one day; it’s found in him right now. This message invites us to stop settling for what feels final and instead bring every “dead place” to Jesus, trusting that he still brings life where we thought the story was over.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Joe looks at Jesus’ words in John 10:10–15, where he reveals himself as the Good Shepherd who brings life in abundance. In this message, we’re reminded that like sheep, we are prone to wander and in need of a shepherd to guide and care for us. Unlike the hired hands who abandon the flock, Jesus proves his love by laying down his life for his sheep. This message invites us to recognize our need for the Good Shepherd and trust him to lead every area of our lives. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Zach explores Jesus’ powerful statement in John 10:11: “I am the good shepherd.” In this message, we see how Jesus contrasts himself with the false shepherds who use and abandon the sheep, revealing instead a shepherd who truly knows, protects, and lays down his life for His people. Jesus doesn’t lead from a distance–he walks with his sheep, calling them by name and guiding them toward life. This message invites us to trust the voice of the Good Shepherd and follow where he leads. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Zach walks us through Jesus’ bold declaration in John 8:12: “I am the light of the world.” In this message, we explore what it looks like to step out of confusion and darkness, and into the clarity and life that Jesus offers. Our world–and often our own lives–can feel chaotic, full of fads, anxiety, and stumbling in the dark. But Jesus isn’t just pointing the way; he is the way. He shines light on our path, leads us forward, and invites us to share that light with others. Whether in your relationships, your work, or your faith, Jesus calls us to live fully in His light.

As we continue our I Am More series, Pastor Joe walks us through Jesus’ powerful declaration in John 6:35–40: “I am the bread of life.” In this message, we explore what our souls truly need, where lasting life is found, and how to stay connected to the One who satisfies us. While we often chase fulfillment in relationships, success, or comfort, Jesus reveals that real, sustaining life – the kind that fills the soul – is found in him alone. Pastor Joe reminds us that just as our bodies need daily nourishment, our souls need an ongoing relationship with Christ. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

As we begin our I Am More series, Pastor Zach walks us through Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding in Cana, showing how God meets people in ordinary, everyday moments. He highlights how what seems small or inconvenient to us often carries deeper need – and Jesus responds with abundance, care, and purpose. At the center of the story is a Savior who reveals his glory not through spectacle, but through quiet provision. Pastor Zach reminds us that More Life begins when we trust Jesus with the moments we might otherwise overlook. Looking to keep the conversation going? Learn more here.

This weekend, Pastor Mike walked us through Mark 10:42–45 and challenged our instinct to pursue significance by putting ourselves first. He showed how Jesus confronts a culture of power and status by redefining greatness as becoming a servant, not just serving occasionally. At the center of the message was Jesus himself—the Son of Man—who came not to be served, but to serve and give his life as a ransom for many. Pastor Mike reminded us that real growth happens when we say yes to a life shaped by humility, service, and following Jesus’ example.

As we continue our More Life series, Pastor Joe walks us through Ephesians 3:20–21, drawing our attention to a powerful benediction that captures God’s heart for our lives. This message reminds us that more life is found right in the middle of three realities: a God who is greater than our past pain, present needs, and future fears; a power at work within us that is stronger than sin, shame, and opposition; and a glory that outlasts every fleeting version of success our culture offers. Together, we’re invited to trust God’s abundance, rely on his power, and live for a glory that truly lasts—now and for generations to come.

As we continue our More Life series, Pastor Zach takes us from Genesis 15 to Revelation 7 to show us the scope of God’s mission—from a promise made to Abraham to a future fulfilled among every nation and people. This message reminds us that God is not small or passive, but visionary and determined to bring more life to more people in more places. Along the way, we’re invited to see ourselves as part of a story that will succeed—and to consider what it looks like to join God in what he’s already doing.

As we continue our More Life series, Pastor Joe walks us through Psalm 19 to show how God has always desired abundant life for his people. He invites us to experience more life by learning to look for God’s glory in creation, read Scripture as life-giving nourishment for the soul, and pray with honesty for God to both reveal and restrain what shapes our hearts. This message challenges us to raise our perspective, deepen our time in God’s Word, and invite him into the unseen places of our lives. The result is a vision for 2026 marked not by external success, but by deep, lasting spiritual renewal.

As we begin our More Life series, Pastor Zach points us to John 10:10, reminding us that Jesus’ mission is clear: to bring life, and life abundantly. He unpacks how the enemy’s greatest tactic is convincing us that God wants less for us, when in reality, separation from the Shepherd is what steals, kills, and destroys. The path to more life, Pastor Zach challenges us, starts with surrender—firing ourselves, trusting Jesus, and obeying him as the true source of life in every area.
