A message from the series "Behind the Veil." Our message series “Christ in the Old Testament” will continue Sunday with a focus scripture of 1 Peter 2:4-8. In this text, the book of Isaiah is quoted, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone.” God is telling us that in His grand plan there is the one main building block, Jesus Christ the “Living Stone”, on which a new spiritual temple will be built one believer at a time. Take time this week praying over this scripture and other related references in your bible.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." On Sunday, we will continue with the message series, “Christ in the Old Testament.” Pastor Chris will take us to Romans 5:12-21. In this scripture, we have “one man” the First Adam and the Last Adam, “one man” Jesus Christ. The first Adam was given dominion over the old creation; he sinned and lost his kingdom. Jesus Christ the Last Adam came as King over a new creation and undid all the damage that the First Adam’s sin effected. As you read, pray, and study over this portion of God’s word, keep in mind how in God’s plan Jesus Christ was the preeminent even as events in the Garden played out.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Dave will continue with the message series, “Christ in the Old Testament.” We will turn to Isaiah 6. In preparation, please read in its entirety. When praying and studying keep this theme in mind, “I saw the Lord high and lifted up” and ask this question, when Isaiah saw the Lord who did he see?

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This past Sunday, Pastor Dave kicked off a new summer series “Christ in the Old Testament” exalting Jesus in all scripture. Scripture is the “means to the end and the end is knowing and exalting Jesus”. On Sunday, we will continue by turning to Genesis 3:1-15. When Adam and Eve sinned, they lost more than a garden. They lost the name that God had given them as image bearers. In their shame they hid from God. The Lord God came calling, not with anger and wrath alone, but with a promise of a Name above all names that would crush the serpent. The first gospel promise (3:15) leads us to Jesus, who restores to us the name of “Child of God”.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." The message from Pastor Dave this Sunday will be the kick-off of the summer series. All of scripture from Genesis to Revelation is the story of Jesus Christ. This message will focus on exalting Christ in the Old Testament. Our scripture reading will be 2 Timothy 3:13-17. Please take some quiet time this week reading and studying in preparation for our time together in the Word.

A message from the series "A Spirit-Filled Home." This Sunday, we will conclude our three-part miniseries, A Spirit-Filled Home, from Ephesians 6:1-4. Having looked at Paul’s instruction to children, to fathers, and to parents, we now look at the amazing reality that God is our Father!

A message from the series "A Spirit-Filled Home." On Sunday, we will continue with part two of the mini-series “A Spirit-Filled Home” from Ephesians 6:1-4. This past Sunday, we looked at “A Word to Children”. Now we will look at “A Word to Parents”. Pastor Dave encourages you to read in your bible the entire chapter of Deuteronomy 6 keeping a special focus on verses 4-9. A command that must first live in the heart of the parent and then be communicated to the children, the next generation. Take some special time this week reading and praying over these portions of God’s Word.

A message from the series "A Spirit-Filled Home." This Sunday we will return to our long-anticipated study in Ephesians. We will pick up on Paul’s teaching of Spirit-filled relationships with a particular focus on verses 1-4 in chapter 6 “Children and Parents”. Keep in mind as you read and study that spiritual harmony in the homes and lives of Christians begins when we are submitted to the lordship of Christ.

A message from the series "Standalone." On Sunday, we will turn to Genesis 22:1-18 in our bibles and look at the account of God’s test for Abraham and the sacrifice of Isaac. For Abraham, this truly was a trial of his faith and obedience. By being in God’s will, he knew there would be provision. His trust in God’s promise carried him through and he never doubted or faltered. As you read and study in preparation for the message, keep in mind how this story is a picture of the Father and the Son and the cross.

A message from the series "Standalone." Pastor Dave has decided to wear his purple shirt one more Sunday and conclude the series of Easter messages from Luke 24. Our focus this week will be on verses 36-53. As Jesus appeared before the disciples, he calmed their fears by speaking God’s Word in scripture and reminding them of what He had taught. From His lips, he proclaimed that “repentance for the forgiveness of sins should be proclaimed in His name to all nations”. Then Jesus spoke of the coming of the Holy Spirit followed by the miracle of His ascension. Keep all of these themes in mind as you read and prepare for the message.
