Living In The Overflow pt 2 -Pastor Mike McCord, 3/8/20

In part 2 of this series, we look at the scene depicted in Ezekiel 47, where there is a river flowing from the temple of God. We note the source, size, strength, and scope of this river, and we are encouraged because we know that God is our source, and his power is strong and well able to flow into the hard or dead places in our lives, and give us new flow and new life! 

Living In The Overflow -Pastor Mike McCord, 3/1/20

Beginning this new series, Pastor Mike highlights the importance of water in nature and in scripture. This message tells us the importance of living a life flowing with the 'living water' Jesus provides for us, and the characteristics of living water. We are given encouragement, knowing that Jesus did not promise a small stream or trickle of life for us, but a river! 

Better Together pt 3 -Pastor Mike McCord, 2/23/20

For the final part of this series, Pastor Mike addresses the fact that there are many divisions in our world, but Jesus has broken down the barriers between all people and given free access to all who call on his name. We learn God loves diversity, but not division, and the solution to every division we have is solved through the cross!

Better Together pt 2 -Pastor Mike McCord, 2/16/20

In Part 2 of this series, Pastor Mike gives us some great insight on how to see improvement in both marriage and non-marriage relationships. We are encouraged knowing that every relationship has its own issues, but we choose whether we react negatively or with love & grace. 

The God of Mercy & Grace -Richard Bolte, 2/9/20

In this incredibly encouraging message from our friend Richard Bolte, we are challenged to make up our minds that we truly want to know Jesus in a better way, and then go and make the necessary adjustments to see that happen. We are challenged to live our lives in a way that truly reflects the fact we have Jesus as an important part of our daily life. 

Better Together -Pastor Matt Chambers, 2/2/20

To kick off this series about marriage & relationships, Pastor Matt gives us some insight from the story of Mary & Joseph. We learn that Joseph had a relationship with God that was first & above his other relationships, he had a trust in the Lord, as well as exceptional courage and patience. We learn we can take these principles for our lives, and see results in our relationships. 

Be The Change pt 4 -Pastor Mike McCord, 1/26/20

In the final part of this series, Pastor Mike gives us insight from the story of Joseph. We are encouraged knowing that as believers in Jesus life happens for us not to us, and God can use our setbacks to give us greater than what we had before. We are encouraged to literally 'be the change' in order to see change in our lives and our world!

Be The Change pt 3 -Pastor Matt Chambers, 1/19/20

In 'Be The Change' part 3, we continue our new year series by being challenged to continually grow into our God provided protection, continually allow the Spirit of God to have freedom in our lives, and to continually be dressed in the armor of God.

Be The Change pt 2 -Pastor Mike McCord, 1/12/19

In part 2 of this new year series, Pastor Mike describes the qualities of a 'game changer'. We learn game changers are passionate about important causes & purposes, they play to their strengths, verbalize their goals, and they inspire other people.

Be The Change -Pastor Mike McCord, 1/5/20

"Be The Change" is the first part of our 2020 new year series, and it sets the vision and gives inspiration for the upcoming year. We are inspired to be willing to make the changes necessary in our lives to move forward into what God has for us, set clear & realistic goals, and make an ongoing commitment to say no to an average lifestyle. We are also given hope knowing God is with us and we are not alone, and change begins when we say about ourselves what God says about us.
