Suicide and depression have occupied the public consciousness with the recent losses of Kate Spade, Anthony Bourdain, and, most recently, Pastor Jarrid Wilson. Statistics further warn that, as we gather each Sunday to worship and sing praises to God, we may stand shoulder to shoulder with people who are battling great sadness or depression. This Sunday, Pastor Kevin comes to the end of the Jonah series and will discuss these important (but often undiscussed) topics and how the gospel gives us hope.

At some point in our life, we will all likely find ourselves exactly where Jonah did, at the bottom. It’s here that we find out "who" or "what" we put our trust in and where we learn more about the heart of God. Join us this Sunday, as Nigel Anderson helps us better understand the heart of God and the hope He gives during the hard times.

The story of Jonah is much more than a colorful and entertaining story about a man being swallowed by a big fish; it is the tale of God’s redemption for a lost and broken world. Through Jonah’s bizarre journey, Pastor Kevin will help us better understand the incredible mission of God and extend the invitation for each of us to follow God wherever He deems best.

The story of Jonah is really all of our stories. Each of us can look back at some point in our lives and see where we have attempted to run from God. What many of us "runners" have discovered is that, while we can run from God, we cannot outrun God!

When you think of God's love and pursuit of you do you often feel like your response to Him falls short? This week, Nigel Anderson will help us unpack Romans 12:1-2 and consider our intentional response to living the full life to which God has called us.

The pursuit of happiness is a goal for many people and a strong value in our country today. The challenge of pursing happiness is that it is temporary and often based on our circumstances. This week, Pastor Kevin continues the series "More Than" where we will see how Jesus provides us with a lasting joy that radiates from within and is anchored in our relationship with Him.

Yes, God’s goodness overcomes our sin by faith. Even so, who among us cannot honestly admit that you have been guilty of disobeying God at times? Paul writes to a wide range of believers in Romans 2 dealing with this very issue. We will see how these passages encourage us today and that God’s kindness is intended to lead us to the right place, relationship with Him.

The world we live in often tells us the way to happiness and fulfillment is in what we own or what we earn. After we chase those things, we are often left wondering is this as good as it gets?This week, Pastor Kevin begins the series "As good as it gets" where we will look at some of the questions Jesus asked people as a means of helping them be open to receiving the fullness of life that He offers.
