We're living in a time in which our culture has some radically different values. The truth is that God created man to glorify Him and to live lives filled with joy, hope, and peace as we obey His instructions for life. 

Families are a gift from God and are meant to be treasured. Some of you have such overwhelmingly painful family memories that cause you to never want to think of those times again. You might even fear that because you lived through those times, you will never be able to have a good family experience of your own in the future.

Thankfully, we have some amazing family values and principles we can glean from Scripture. Join us this Sunday for the start of Pastor Stan's brand new series: How's Your Family?

This message might not be the kind of Christmas series you were expecting.

What's it like to live in a home or work at a company where NO ONE ever says a sincere "thank you?" What actually changes when we become genuinely thankful? Can thankfulness deepen our relationship with God?

Are you thankful? Like, REALLY thankful? Is your thankfulness born out of obligation to be a good person or is it from a deeper spiritual heart that truly hears from God?

As people who long to follow God's ways and Christ's ways, it can be frustrating to move through this life. One of the most helpful instructions that Jesus gives his followers is in Matthew 13 where he identifies the people and passions that turn our attention from God. Have you learned what defeats your ability to be fruitful for God? Join us this morning for part 3 of Pastor Stan's Becoming Good Hearted.

How can we produce good fruit in our lives as believers and avoid having rocky hearts? What keeps our heart rocky and resistant to solid Truth? Join us for part 2 of Pastor Stan's series on the Parable of the Soils.

How often are you given seeds from the Kingdom? Who is sowing seeds of truth into your life? How well are you using the seeds? Join us for the start of Pastor Stan's new October series "Becoming Good Hearted" as we dive into the Parable of the Soils.

What one verse in the New Testament helps us to obey all of the other instructions in the Scriptures? What verse, when ignored, keeps us from being able to apply the other verses? This part of Ephesians is not to be taken lightly.

The blessed man of God finds His delight in meditating on the Word of God. Listen as Pastor Stan takes us into the next installment of his series on Psalm 1.

What happens to me if I let ungodly, worldly and wicked counsel into my mind and thoughts? What are the consequences? Listen as Pastor Stan continues his Psalm 1 series Rooted, Grounded, Growing.

What is the greatest benefit of following God? What Psalm sums up all of God's plan for mankind? Listen as Pastor Stan launches his brand new series "Rooted, Grounded, Growing."

Guest speaker Dave Nielsen brings an encouraging message from Esther 4.

How many excuses can you make about your prayer life? Listen as Pastor Stan takes us into the next installment of his Survival Skills series.

Youth Pastor Josh Wattier brings a special message on suffering. 

What does it mean to truly die to yourself in pursuit of Christ? How can you save your life by losing it? These may seem like complicated contradictions or paradoxes to our minds, but in the Kingdom of God, they fit right into the way that Christ-followers are supposed to live each and every day. Listen as guest speaker Phillip Snodgrass takes us into this amazing study! 

If you could just refocus on one area of your life for the year 2021, what should you make a priority? 

Listen to the next installment of Pastor Stan's Refocus series as we unlock the answer to this question and much more! 

Why should you go to church? What should the atmosphere of a healthy church include? Listen as Pastor Stan takes us into the next installment of his Refocus series and we examine God's specific design for church community! 

Every year in our fast-paced, materialistic, self-centered American culture, people miss the true meaning of Christmas entirely. They exert all of their time, energy, and money prioritizing gifts, decorations, lights, family gatherings, Santa, and good cheer. Even as Christ-followers, we occasionally do the same. 

But this time of year is about so much more than what's under the tree or who's coming over on Christmas Day. It's about the birth of a Savior in a stable! 

Listen as Pastor Stan takes us into part one of his series "The Cradle, Cross, & Crown" and invites us to pause, step back, and take a look at the bigger picture and the full power and wonder of what we refer to as "Christmas."

What are you standing firm on in order to have stability through the storms of life? If there’s one year in which we all need a little more stability, it’s definitely 2020! 

Join us today for the last installment of Pastor Stan’s Don’t Worry series!

As political, social, and cultural uncertainty swarms around us, believers can know that their eternal hope is secure in Jesus Christ and His Word! Why? Because we've been given a hope that will never disappoint! We don't have to live in fear or uncertainty.

Listen as Pastor Stan takes us through the next installment of his Don't Worry series and shows us several passages that reveal the comfort and beauty of our hope in God.
