A New Kind of People
If you are in Christ, you belong to God and we belong together. This morning, Pastor Ben will help us explore Colossians 3:1-17 in his message, “A New Kind of People,” as we consider what it means to put off our old ways and put on Christ. The result is that God forms us into a new kind of people: a community marked by humility, forgiveness, love, and unity.
You Were Made for Family
We weren’t meant to follow Jesus alone. Today Pastor Markcontinues The Jesus Way as we begin our BELONG movement and discover what it means to be part of God’s family—a community where we are known, loved, encouraged, and formed to become more like Jesus. If you’re our guest today, welcome! We’re so glad you’re here and hope you feel at home.
Led by the Spirit
Today in The Jesus Way, Pastor Mark continues our ABIDE journey with “Led by the Spirit.” How do we recognize the Spirit’s leading and learn to follow? Together we’ll discover how God’s Spirit forms the life of Jesus in us from the inside out. Today’s text is Galatians 5: 16-26.
Abide in Me
Our prayer is that today you’ll draw closer to Jesus and experience His presence and love. In Week 2 of The Jesus Way, Pastor Mark shares “Abide in Me” from John 15—what it means to stay connected to Jesus and let His life change ours.

Follow Me
Today we begin The Jesus Way, a new fall series about more than knowing what Jesus taught—it’s about actually learning to live the way Jesus lived. Pastor Mark begins with “Follow Me,” Jesus’ simple invitation that changed the lives of His first disciples and still changes lives today. Wherever you are in your journey with Jesus, our prayer is that these weeks will help you move beyond simply knowing about Him to becoming more like Him in every area of…
Revival
The book of Nehemiah is, of course, known for its account of the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem. Following the completion of that wall, something even more remarkable occurred: a revival, a “rebuilding” of the spiritual life of the people. This morning we look at the spiritual renewal—what it is, and what it isn’t in Part 8 of our series in Pastor Steve’s message, “Revival.”
Walking Strong
Today’s message focuses upon Nehemiah 6:1-16. John DeLancey shares a “pictorial message” offering more contextual background of the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem by Nehemiah. The message is entitled, “Walking Strong.” In this chapter Nehemiah completes rebuilding the walls in 52 days despite the challenges and obstacles. We can walk strong in our faith as we place our faith in Christ as our sure foundation! John serves as the Director of Biblical Israel Ministries & Tours.
Fixing What’s Broken Inside
Today we continue our Hand Me Another Brick journey through Nehemiah as Pastor Mark shares the message, “Fixing What’s Broken Inside.” We also have the joy of celebrating with several men, women, boys, and girls who are taking the step of following Jesus in believers’ baptism! Have your Bibles open to Nehemiah 5 and be ready to follow along.
Our God Will Fight for Us
Opposition is inevitable, but God’s people are never left to face it alone. In Nehemiah 4, we see that prayer is our dependence on God, our defense against the enemy, and our faithful duty in every battle. Today Pastor Ben will help us explore how God works powerfully through our weakness, reminding us that victory doesn’t come from our own strength but from trusting God who fights for his people.
Beyond the Wall
What, really, does an ancient account the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s wall have to say to us in our day Today’s passage for our current sermon series from the Book of Nehemiah recounts the beginning of the actual construction of that wall. That project, and its place in God’s larger story of redemption, has more to say to us today than we might realize. Pastor Steve explores that meaning to us in today’s message “Beyond the Wall.”
Leading the Way on our Knees
Today Pastor Mark resumes our summer series, Hand Me Another Brick, a chapter-by-chapter journey through Nehemiah. Though written over 2,400 years ago, this ancient book has a timely message for our lives today. This morning’s message, “Leading the Way on Our Knees,” reminds us that God does His greatest work through people who depend on Him in prayer.
The LORD, My Shepherd
This week children filled our campus for Emerald Crossing VBS discovering the life-changing truth of Psalm 23. Today we continue that journey as Pastor Mark shares a message titled “The LORD, My Shepherd.”
