04.19.26 - Love Notes
2026/04/21
You can be right in every relationship and still get it completely wrong if love isn’t underneath it all. This week we’re getting honest about the ways we fake love, miss love, and how God’s love actually reshapes the way we treat people.
04.12.26 - My First Rodeo
2026/04/13
We all walk into relationships like we’ve done this before, but the truth is we’re all figuring it out as we go. What if the key to healthier relationships isn’t being right, but learning to lead with grace?
04.05.26 - Prove It
2026/04/07
Easter is built on one unbelievable claim: a man died and came back to life. If that's true, it changes everything. If it's not, it's nothing. This Sunday, we're looking at the story of Thomas and asking the question most of us are already thinking, "Can this actually be trusted?"
03.29.26 - Christ on the Cross
2026/03/30
If God is loving, why was the cross necessary? And what does it actually accomplish? This message dives into the tension between justice and mercy and why the cross still matters today.
03.22.26 - The Man Who Never Meant to Follow Jesus
2026/03/23
Some moments in life you plan for. Others hit you out of nowhere. And then, there are moments you don’t realize are life-changing until much, much later. Join us as we look at a man who was unexpectedly pulled into Jesus’ story and how one encounter didn’t just change his life; it changed his entire family line.
03.15.28 - The Last Supper
2026/03/16
Great artwork is a mirror, reflecting our own emotions back to us, allowing us to view and examine them from another angle. Leonardo Da Vinci’s painting, The Last Supper, clearly shows a full range of human emotion - But how can this famous work of art shed new light on a familiar story? Join us this Sunday, March 15th as we begin a new series called “Inspired by” where we study works of art inspired by Jesus’s final days and uncover what they have to teach us about Jesus, the disciples, and ourselves.
03.08.26 - Why We Trust This Book
2026/03/09
Can you wrestle honestly with the Bible and still trust it? This Sunday we tackle some of the hardest questions about Scripture, from genocide to war brides, and ask whether the Bible is reliable, inerrant, and truly authoritative. If you have ever read something in the Bible and thought "What the ..." this message is for you.
03.01.26 - the Way Out
2026/03/03
We've spent this series naming the ruts that quietly shape our lives - shame, people-pleasing, comparison. But the gospel doesn't just expose ruts; it promises renewal. In this message we look at a powerful teaching from Paul that shows us the true steps of renewal and the true steps out of a rut.
02.22.26 - The Comparison Pit
2026/02/23
We live in a world obsessed with scoreboards: Our careers, our bodies, our parenting, and our faith all get compared and even ranked. In this message, we look at a time when Peter falls into this rut, and discover how comparison quietly steals joy, fractures community, and pulls us off our calling.
02.15.26 - The People-Pleaser Trap
2026/02/16
We all think people-pleasing is just being nice, being thoughtful, keeping the peace. But what if it's actually a master we didn't realize we were serving? In this message, we look at King Saul's slow unraveling and ask a hard question: whose approval is shaping your life?
02.08.26 - The Shame Spiral
2026/02/09
Most of us don't get stuck because we chose something bad, but because something once made life easier. In this message, we explore how shame quietly becomes a rut that keeps us hiding and shrinking, and how Jesus meets us with a truth and compassion instead of condemnation.
02.01.26 - Same Old, Same Old
2026/02/03
Most people do not end up stuck because of one bad decision.They get stuck because of small, repeated patterns that slowly shrink their lives.
In this five-week series, Ruts, we will explore how people get trapped in emotional and spiritual patterns like shame, people-pleasing, and comparison, and how God offers a better way forward.
Rather than blowing up our lives, the gospel invites us into transformation from the inside out. Scripture shows us that real change is possible, renewal is real, and we do not have to stay stuck.
01.25.26 - Dear God, Don't Let Greed Destroy Us
2026/01/26
It's easy to believe that if we could just make a little more money, acquire a few more possessions, get that big promotion, or go on that fancy vacation, then we would finally be at peace - We'll finally be happy. Desires like this rarely feel dangerous, so how can we know when our greed crosses the line into something more destructive?
01.18.26 - Dear God, Don't Let Loneliness Destroy Us
2026/01/19
Have you ever felt isolated even when life is full and people are close by? Loneliness has a way of creeping in during the seasons of pressure, loss, and uncertainty, leaving us questioning where we belong and what really holds us together. This sermon explores how faith is formed not by escaping hardship, but by discovering God's presence in the middle of it. Together, we'll reflect on what shapes us when comfort disappears, how loneliness exposes what we lean on most, and how God invites us into deeper faith and real community. Join us this Sunday as we name the ache honestly and consider what it looks like to choose presence, faithfulness, and connection when life feels overwhelming.
01.11.26 - Dear God, Don't Let Politics Destroy Us
2026/01/13
Politics has become one of the most powerful forces shaping our fear, identity, and hope. This message looks at Daniel 6 to ask a harder question than who's right or wrong. The question is who are we trusting with our hearts? If you've ever freaked out about politics, this message is for you.
