Pastor Marcus concludes the Ancient/Future sermon series with this message, Yesterday/Day. You don’t have to live in your strength. You don’t have to muster up the effort to prove yourself. God is working in you and through you. There is nothing he will ask of you that he will not accomplish in you. The invitation is to surrender. Surrender your life, work, and gifts to God and live by his strength, hold to his teaching, and extend his love.
As Nehemiah and his crew begin rebuilding the walls of the Jerusalem they encounter opposition. But, we see in Nehemiah’s leadership that they are prepared to continue to build as they find their refuge in the Lord. In the same way we are called to defend ourselves agains the lies of the enemy and find our refuge in Christ’s ultimate victory over all that would oppose God’s people.
Pastor Marcus continues our Lenten sermon series Redux with a message Retell. We all see and feel the deep cynicism of our world. The great gift of retelling the same story of God is that it invites into a different way of being shaped not by cynicism, but by joy and thanksgiving.
In Pastor Marcus' message Rebuild, mourning reminds us why we rebuild. It reminds us that things are not as they should be, and God is inviting us into more.
As a faithful remnant return to Jerusalem to rebuild the temple, we are invited to live as a faithful remnant today as we build rituals in our lives that center us around God’s Word Made Flesh, the One who has brought us home to God.
We begin our Lenten sermon series Redux with an Ash Wednesday message from Pastor Marucus, Report.

As the author of Hebrews invites us to find endurance to follow Jesus in the lives of the saints who have gone before us, we have the opportunity to hear from our sister in Christ, Yarimar Cherney, share about how she follows Jesus in her role as executive director of Family Life Services. As we dig into our text and hear from Yari, we are ultimately pointed to our savior who endured the cross with joy for each one of us.
Pastor Marcus continues our series on Ancient/Future with the message Drew Near/Draw Near. When God’s people meet together, something profound happens. He shows up in that place. He draws us into the truth that changes everything.
Doesn’t matter who we are or what we believe we can’t help but recognize that we live in a moral universe. This means we can’t help but have to deal with our own moral failings and feelings of guilt. The author of Hebrews recognizes this and insists that the way to deal with it is not through self-justification, but through trust in the new covenant given to us through Jesus sacrifice on the cross.
We continue our Ancient/Future series with a message on Held Fast/Hold Fast from Pastor Marcus. Hold fast to him, hold fast to his grace, hold fast to his promises,
because he is holding fast to you.
