The Ancient Road: Justice For All

Rob Hastings — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 09:22:49 +0000

Today, we set aside worldly definitions of justice and turn to Scripture for God’s truth. Through Christ, we are offered justification—a gift deeper than forgiveness that grants us true freedom when we accept Him as Lord. In response, we are called to reflect His justice to the world around us. Join us as Pastor Rob continues his sermon series, "The Ancient Road," exploring biblical justice and how we can live it out every day.

The Ancient Road: The Love of God

Rob Hastings — Sun, 02 Aug 2026 10:04:13 +0000

Today, we had the privilege of hearing from the students who attended The Send Conference as they shared their testimonies of how God moved in their lives. As we continue our journey along The Ancient Road, we come to a vital theme: loving God through obedience. During their time away, many of our students sensed God's calling on their lives. Some were challenged to start Jesus Clubs in their schools, while others felt called to evangelism or missions wherever God leads them. Christ has demonstrated His immeasurable love for us, and our response is to love Him in return through faithful obedience to the call He has placed on our lives. Pastor Rob concludes the series with a challenge for each of us: How can we love God well by faithfully serving where He has placed us? Join us as we wrap up our series, The Ancient Road.

The Ancient Road: Holy Then, Holy Now

Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Jul 2026 10:06:29 +0000

Holy then. Holy now. The holiness of God has never changed. He is not our co-pilot, our assistant, or an addition to our lives—He is Lord. From the beginning, God has been wholly set apart, transcendent above all creation, beyond our understanding and imagination. Though we can know Him truly, we will never fully comprehend the depths of His holiness. And yet, this holy God has drawn near to us. What we could never attain through our own righteousness, Christ has freely given through His life, death, and resurrection. The only way we can be made holy is because His righteousness has become ours. As we walk the Ancient Road, we are reminded that holiness is not an outdated idea or a forgotten virtue—it is the unchanging nature of God Himself. Join us as we behold the holiness of God, humble ourselves before His Lordship, and discover what it means to live as a people made holy by grace.

The Ancient Road: Obedience - The Blessing of "Yes"

Rob Hastings — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 09:31:01 +0000

Obedience is one of the most misunderstood words in the Christian life. We often associate it with fear, rules, or performance, but Scripture reveals something entirely different—obedience begins with grace. This week, Pastor Rob continues our series, "The Ancient Road", exploring God's call to hear His voice and faithfully follow Him. Through Scripture, we'll discover that obedience isn't about earning God's love, but responding to it. When we build our lives on His Word and walk in obedience, we find wisdom, freedom, and the firm foundation God intended for us.

A Sermon on Repentance

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 09:28:54 +0000

Today, we take a deeper look at the biblical meaning of repentance and discover that it is far more than simply saying "I'm sorry." Throughout Scripture, repentance is described in several ways—returning home to God, experiencing godly sorrow over our sin, allowing Him to transform the way we think, and turning our hearts fully toward Him. True repentance is not rooted in shame or behavior modification, but in God's grace, mercy, and His invitation into deeper relationship with Him. As we walk with the Lord, repentance becomes a continual posture of the heart. The Holy Spirit lovingly convicts us, not to condemn us, but to lead us into greater freedom and holiness. Just as David prayed, "Search me, O God," we are invited to continually return to the One who calls us home. Repentance is not a one-time moment—it is an ongoing act of surrender that transforms every part of our lives.

One Nation Under God

Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Jul 2026 09:33:07 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob continues his message on our nation and the freedom we enjoy with a powerful Independence Day sermon. Throughout Scripture, we're reminded that while the world is constantly changing, the Lord and His Word remain the same through every generation. Culture changes. Traditions change. The songs we sing may even change. But God has established timeless truths that never will. As followers of Christ, our greatest calling is to live according to His ways above all else. We are grateful to live in America, but our highest allegiance is to the Kingdom of God. May we be a people who seek Him first and truly live as one nation under God. Join us for this special Fourth of July message!

America: Gratitude, Goodness, and God's Calling

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Jun 2026 09:31:35 +0000

America has been richly blessed, and as Christians, we have much to be grateful for. This message explores what makes a nation truly great, the importance of pursuing goodness, and our calling to pray with humility for our country and its leaders. While we celebrate the freedoms we enjoy, we're reminded that our ultimate identity isn't found in any earthly nation. As followers of Christ, our true citizenship is in heaven, and our lives are called to reflect His kingdom above all else.

Fathers as the Foundation

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Jun 2026 09:23:29 +0000

Dads, you're doing a good job—and if you feel like you've fallen short, it's not too late. This Father's Day, Pastor Rob shares a powerful message about the responsibility and calling of fathers, the lies that men often believe, and how to stand firm in Christ while living in a broken world. He challenges fathers to lead with faith, encourages young men to steward the gifts God has given them, and reminds us that manhood is a gift from God. Pursue righteousness, walk in strength, and embrace the calling God has placed on your life. Join us as we celebrate fathers and reflect on God's design for biblical manhood. Happy Father's Day!

A Life Poured Out: Fully Given to Jesus

Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 09:24:28 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob continues our series "Empowered" by highlighting key truths about living a life surrendered to Christ. One of the most important is having a clear understanding of what the Gospel truly is. The Gospel is Jesus Himself—His life, death, and resurrection. It is not simply a message meant to make us feel better, but the life-changing good news we are called to believe and share. As followers of Christ, we are invited to pour out our lives as living sacrifices to the Lord. This surrender is lived out through daily, often unseen choices that reflect obedience and devotion to Him. So the question is: how will you surrender this week? In both the big moments and the small ones, how will you give your life to Christ? Join us as we continue this series!

Fearless in the Friction

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 Jun 2026 09:24:25 +0000

Courage isn't the absence of fear—it's obedience in the face of it. In a world filled with spiritual battles, opposition, and difficult conversations, God calls us to stand firm in truth while leading with love. Join us as we discover how to live with spiritual courage, hold compassion without compromise, and remain faithful to Christ even when following Him comes with friction.

Standing Firm in a World of Idols

Rob Hastings — Sun, 31 May 2026 09:29:06 +0000

In Part 3 of our Empowered: The Mission That Changed the World series, we explore what it means to stand firm in a culture filled with competing values and modern-day idols. Looking at the example of the early church and Jesus' message in Revelation 2:12-17, we'll discover how God calls His people to be set apart, remain faithful to His truth, and live in the world without becoming of the world.

Unstoppable: The Promise of Power

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 May 2026 10:46:55 +0000

This message explores the power and purpose of the Holy Spirit in the life of every believer. Jesus called us to go into all the world and preach the Gospel—the good news—and He did not leave us to accomplish that mission alone. Through the Holy Spirit, God gives us dunamis power: dynamic, explosive power that enables us to live boldly and effectively for Him. The Holy Spirit is not a reward for spiritual achievement or a prize to be earned; He is a gift to be received. Just as electricity flows through a lightbulb to produce light, the Holy Spirit works through us to reveal Christ to the world around us. The Spirit empowers us to be witnesses, equips us with spiritual gifts, helps us pray, marks us as God’s own, and strengthens us to live for Him. Pentecost was not simply about people feeling spiritual—it was about ordinary people being filled with God’s power and then stepping into a harvest of transformed lives. When the Holy Spirit moves, things change. We change, and the people around us change. Each of us has unique circles of influence that no one else can reach. This sermon is a reminder that we do not work for God’s power—we work from God’s power, boldly carrying the Gospel wherever He sends us.

When the Story Becomes Real

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 May 2026 09:33:29 +0000

Today, we hear from Pastor Rob as he shares about his trip overseas. As he and his family walked through the streets of Ephesus, Corinth, and Athens, the stories of the Bible came to life in a powerful way. He reflects on the truth and reality of God’s Word—that these were not just stories, but real men and women who lived their lives fully devoted to Christ. Join us as we begin part one of a brand-new series!

Teresa Hoffman

Teresa Hoffman — Sun, 10 May 2026 09:19:30 +0000

This Mother’s Day, we had the privilege of hearing from Teresa Hoffman as she shared the Word and encouraged the moms in our church family. Teresa speaks on the importance of caring for others and reminds us of the deep love and care Jesus has for His children. As moms, you are constantly pouring into the lives of those around you—it’s part of how God designed you. Today, Teresa brings a reminder that while you care for others, God also desires to care for you, fill you up, and draw you into a deeper, more intimate relationship with Him. Join us today as we hear the Word from Teresa Hoffman. Happy Mother’s Day!

Prayer

Mickey Hall — Sun, 03 May 2026 09:23:24 +0000

Today, Mickey Hall brings us the Word from the book of John as he shares about the power and significance of Pentecost and the lasting impact it had on the Christian world. Through Scripture, we are reminded that Pentecost was not just a moment in history, but the beginning of a transformed life through the presence of the Holy Spirit. Mickey speaks on the importance of recognizing the Holy Spirit in our daily lives and learning how to approach Him personally and intimately. Too often, we can overlook the Spirit’s guidance, comfort, conviction, and power, yet Jesus promised that we would not walk through life alone. This message encourages us to grow in relationship with the Holy Spirit, to listen for His leading, and to live boldly through His strength and presence. Join us this Communion Sunday as we gather together in worship, remember the sacrifice of Jesus, and dive into a message about the power, presence, and work of the Holy Spirit in the life of every believer.

Finding God's Purpose

Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 09:21:28 +0000

In this sermon, Jason encourages us to trust God with our direction and to recognize that purpose is often revealed through a journey rather than a single moment. He talks about the seasons we all experience—times of sacrifice, times of stepping out in bold faith, and times of learning to depend fully on God’s leading. He also introduces the idea of a “golden thread”—the way God weaves together different parts of our lives to guide us toward His purpose. This can be seen through the gifts He’s given us, the burdens we carry, the opportunities that open and close, our life experiences, and the deep desires He places in our hearts. All of these things work together to point us toward why God has placed us here and how He is calling us to live. Join us as we hear this encouraging and challenging word about trusting God and walking in the purpose He has for each of us.

Resurrection People Live with Purpose

Rob Hastings — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 09:31:49 +0000

As we build on the truth of living hope, we’re reminded that our hope in Jesus isn’t just something we hold onto—it’s something that shapes the way we live. Because we have a living hope, we also have a purpose. In this message, we’re challenged to ask ourselves if we’re actually living with that purpose in mind, or if we’ve drifted into comfort and routine. God hasn’t just saved us from something—He’s called us into something. Each of us has a role to play in reflecting His love and pointing others to Him. Together, we’re encouraged to step into that calling with intention. Even when we feel unsure or unqualified, God is still working through us. Our purpose isn’t about having everything figured out—it’s about being willing to follow Him, wherever He leads. Ultimately, we’re reminded that when we truly live in the hope we’ve been given, our lives begin to carry meaning, direction, and impact far beyond ourselves.

The Living Hope

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 09:39:25 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob preaches on the call to fully trust God, even when we don’t understand what He’s doing. He emphasizes that faith isn’t just about belief, but about surrender—choosing to follow God’s direction over our own plans. Throughout the message, we are reminded that God works in ways we can’t always see, and that growth often happens in seasons of uncertainty. We are challenged to examine where we may be holding back and encouraged to step forward in obedience. Ultimately, the takeaway is clear: when we place our trust in God and remain faithful, He is shaping us, guiding us, and working all things for His purpose.

Easter Sunday

Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 09:20:18 +0000

Easter is more than a moment of celebration—it’s the turning point of everything. In this message, we reflect on the resurrection of Jesus and what it truly means for our lives today. The same Savior who was welcomed into Jerusalem, crucified on a cross, and laid in a tomb is the One who rose in victory—defeating sin, death, and the grave. But Easter isn’t just about what happened then—it’s about what Jesus is still doing now. This sermon invites us to move beyond simply knowing the story of Easter and into experiencing the power of it. Because the resurrection isn’t just something we celebrate—it’s something that changes us. Will we just remember the empty tomb… or will we live in the new life it offers?

Palm Sunday

Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Mar 2026 09:28:56 +0000

Today we reflect on Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. He entered as our King—not only to be welcomed in the city, but to take His rightful place in our hearts. The crowds celebrated Him as a king in a moment that felt like a coronation. Yet He did not come to conquer by the sword, but to bring a deeper freedom—one that transforms and restores us from within. Jesus came as the King we truly needed, even if He wasn’t the king people expected. Join us as we continue our journey to the cross.

The Rising Hope

Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Mar 2026 09:34:29 +0000

As we continue our Journey to the Cross, we arrive at the powerful moment when Jesus calls Lazarus out of the grave. Lazarus had been dead for several days—his story, by all accounts, was over. Yet Jesus spoke a promise to Mary and Martha: they would see their brother again. They assumed He meant the future resurrection, but Jesus was pointing to something even more immediate—that Lazarus would live again here and now. What an incredible promise, and an even greater miracle to witness. We often carry things in our own lives that feel just as final—dreams, hopes, or situations we believe are beyond revival. But Jesus is the only one with authority over the grave. He alone can bring life where there was once death. So the question we’re left with is this: what might Jesus be calling back to life in you today?

From Promise to Presence

Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 09:32:29 +0000

The Jewish people had been waiting generations for their Messiah. They knew the Scriptures and longed for their King to come. But their expectations shaped what they were looking for—a ruler who would take a physical throne and deliver them from Roman oppression. When Jesus came, He completely overturned those expectations. Instead of arriving as a conquering king, He came as a humble servant—riding on a donkey and walking among those society called “sinners.” Jesus didn’t come in the way or timing the people expected, but in the perfect way and timing of the Father. While many tried to take matters into their own hands, God had already set His plan in motion. How often do we do the same? How often do we try to rush God’s timing or take control of His plan? Join us as Pastor Rob teaches on God’s promise and presence, and what it truly means to surrender everything to Him.

The Promise

Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Mar 2026 09:29:55 +0000

The Old Testament holds a powerful promise of hope for the future. Even in the very beginning, after Adam and Eve fell into sin, God made a promise that He would send a Redeemer—His only Son—to rescue them and all of humanity from the grip of sin. From the start, God was already writing a story of redemption for His people. Since the beginning of time, He has been working toward our restoration, weaving His faithfulness through the brokenness of mankind. Throughout Scripture, we see that God’s promises are never fragile or uncertain. Instead, they are forged in the midst of our failures, reminding us that our shortcomings do not cancel His faithfulness. Because of this, we can find deep comfort and lasting hope. The promises of God are trustworthy, and they point us forward to the fulfillment of His plan through Jesus Christ. No matter our past or present struggles, we can place our confidence in the God who keeps every promise He makes.

Paradise Lost

Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Mar 2026 09:18:48 +0000

This morning, Pastor Rob walks us through the foundations of Easter, explaining the meaning of Ash Wednesday and the season of Lent. These sacred times are set aside to help us recognize the reality of our sin and our deep need for God’s grace. While we live on this earth, we are called to pursue holiness and righteousness—but that pursuit begins with humility. It begins with remembering that we are broken and in need of a Savior. Scripture reminds us that without the shedding of blood—without the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus—we would be without hope. As we prepare our hearts for Easter, may we first take time to reflect, repent, and recognize our need for the One who saves.

They Will Not Meet You Where They Left You

Bishop Abel Oyaro — Sun, 22 Feb 2026 10:09:57 +0000

Bishop Abel and his wife, Bea, join us today to share an update on their ministry in Kenya and all that the Lord has been doing. Bishop Abel also brings a powerful message about the life-changing impact of an encounter with the Living God. Through the story of the lame man in Scripture, we see the Holy Spirit move through Peter as he commands the man to walk—and he is instantly healed. For years, people had known him only as a cripple and a beggar. Yet after one encounter with the Lord, he was transformed from the inside out. Join us as we hear this powerful testimony and are reminded to trust in the Lord’s perfect timing and healing power.

More Than Words

Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Feb 2026 10:04:56 +0000

The greatest calling is to love God and love people. This is not optional—it is a direct command from God. Yet we live in a self-centered world that often prioritizes self-love and expects others to meet our needs before we meet theirs. Love becomes easier to understand when we recognize that it is not merely a feeling but a choice. Each day, we must choose to love others, set aside our pride, and seek God’s guidance in loving Him and those around us. In this Valentine’s Day message, Pastor Rob teaches about the different kinds of love, what they mean, and how we can live them out sincerely.

The Habit of Letting Go

Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:14:50 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob continues our Habits of a Healthy Heart series by teaching on the importance of having a forgiving heart and a spirit that is not easily offended. This topic can be challenging and sometimes uncomfortable, but it is essential that we look to Scripture and ask the Lord for the strength to forgive those who have hurt us. We are called to entrust our pain and our situations to Him — and to do it well. Pastor shares what true, healthy forgiveness looks like and how we can practically live it out in our everyday lives. Join us!

Steadfastness

Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Feb 2026 09:43:11 +0000

Join us for the fifth part of our Healthy Habits series. Today, our Elder, Mickey Hall, will share the Word of God and challenge us to live a steadfast life of faith. Throughout Scripture—and even in the lives of believers today—we see powerful examples of what it means to remain faithful. We are called to build spiritual strength, resist the temptation to give up, and trust that God will carry us through every season until we stand before His throne. Join us as we continue on in the Healthy Habits series!

Get Rid of That Shame

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Jan 2026 09:16:00 +0000

Shame has a way of lingering in our hearts, quietly shaping how we see ourselves, God, and others. In this message, we’re reminded that shame was never meant to define us. Through Scripture, we’ll explore how Jesus meets us in our brokenness, removes the weight of shame, and invites us into freedom and healing. God desires healthy hearts—hearts that are no longer bound by past failures, guilt, or fear, but restored by His grace and truth. Join us as we learn how to release shame and walk in the freedom Christ has already secured for us.

The Habit of Making Space

Rob Hastings — Sun, 18 Jan 2026 09:31:37 +0000

As believers, we often find ourselves caught up in the busyness of everyday life—getting the kids to school, finishing projects at work, juggling practices, extra events, and family time. Somewhere in the middle of it all, we’re also supposed to make time with the Lord. It can be easy to wonder why we haven’t heard from God in a while, without pausing to recognize that we are often responsible for creating space to meet with Him. Intimacy requires intentionality. So how do we live this out practically? How do we create space to receive from the Lord in the midst of the chaos? Join us as we continue our series on Habits.

The Habit of Simplicity

Rob Hastings — Sun, 11 Jan 2026 09:19:59 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob encourages believers to cultivate a healthy heart by practicing simplicity in their daily lives. It explores how removing unnecessary distractions and excess can create space to focus on what truly matters—our relationship with God. By learning to live with contentment and intentionality, we are reminded that a simpler life helps align our hearts with God’s priorities and brings greater peace and clarity. Join us as we continue our series!

The Habit that will Heal Your Heart

Rob Hastings — Sun, 04 Jan 2026 09:20:09 +0000

Happy New Year, Church! Today we begin a brand-new series, Habits of a Healthy Heart. As we step into the new year, our prayer is that we would cry out to God and invite Him to search our hearts. True life change begins when our habits change—but that requires us to dig deep. Often, self-deception quietly takes root in our lives, shaping our thoughts and actions without us realizing it. How do we recognize these patterns? How do we confront them with truth and allow God to bring transformation? Join us as we kick off this new series and start the year by pursuing hearts that are healthy, honest, and fully surrendered to God.

Disruptors

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Dec 2025 09:34:52 +0000

Throughout history, certain moments and inventions have disrupted the world and changed the way we live. When Jesus came into the world, He was the greatest disruption of all. History was forever changed. The shepherds encountered the Savior, yet they returned to their everyday lives—still tending sheep, still living in the ordinary—but with hearts transformed by Christ. They waited for the day Jesus would publicly change the world, faithfully serving in the meantime with renewed hope and obedience. Many of us find ourselves living on this same side of Christmas—the ordinary, in-between moments. The question is how we will live there. Will we be changed by the grace and love of Christ’s birth, or will we wait for the next big moment? Join Pastor Rob as he explores the challenge and calling of living faithfully in the everyday, and how believers are meant to thrive on this side of life.

The Love of a Baby

Nancy & Josue Lemus — Sun, 21 Dec 2025 09:35:03 +0000

This morning, we are blessed to welcome Nancy and Josue Lemus, visiting us from Guatemala. They will be sharing an update on the Jeremiah Project and bringing a powerful message centered on the love of Christ. Jesus came to dwell among us—not in majesty or splendor, but as a baby born in humility. He entered the world as one of us, fully human, choosing to walk our roads, share our struggles, and reveal His glory through a life lived in obedience and love. From His birth to His life and ultimately His sacrifice, Christ showed us the depth of God’s love. Join us as we celebrate the fourth and final week of Advent, reflecting on the love that came down for us.

Joy to the World

Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Dec 2025 09:32:08 +0000

“Joy to the World—the Lord has come, and we await His coming again.” During the Christmas season, we celebrate the first coming of our King, Jesus, and the deep joy His arrival brings. Yet for many, this season can also carry hardship—marked by loss, fear, or loneliness—making it both the best and the hardest time of year. In Advent, we hold these truths together. God has faithfully fulfilled His promise in the first coming of Jesus, and He gives us enduring hope as we look ahead to the second coming of Christ. Our joy is not rooted in circumstances, but in the goodness and faithfulness of God, who carries us through every season. Join us for Advent Week 3 as we reflect, seek the Lord, and celebrate the true and lasting Joy found in Christ.

More than a Baby in a Manger

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 Dec 2025 10:12:06 +0000

It’s not just the quiet peace of a tiny baby in a manger—it's so much more. Today, Pastor Rob shares the Christmas story through the lens of Revelation. In this deeper context, we see that Christmas is not only about a child born of the Virgin Mary, but about the powerful King—our Lord God—who came to earth in the form of a baby to save us. Jesus came to rescue, restore, and redeem. We must recognize that the Jesus we see on the cross and risen from the grave is the same Jesus in the manger we celebrate on Christmas Day. And this same Christ offers us true peace—shalom—the perfect, overwhelming peace that surpasses understanding. We need only to trust Him, seek Him, and follow Him.

The Hope That Keeps Us Looking Up

Rob Hastings — Sun, 30 Nov 2025 09:36:26 +0000

The word Advent comes from the Latin adventus, meaning “the coming” or “the arrival.” The Israelites longed for the advent of their promised Savior, and today, as the Church, we live in anticipation of His second coming. As we enter this Christmas season, we want to fix our hearts on the hope found in Christ’s arrival—both His first and His future return. While this is a joyful time of family, celebration, and tradition, may we keep our focus on our King as we look forward to His coming again.

The Power in Being Thankful

Rob Hastings — Sun, 23 Nov 2025 09:36:33 +0000

Join us for a meaningful look at the power of gratitude. In this message, Pastor Rob reflects on the first Thanksgiving—its journey, its challenges, and the unexpected grace that followed. Through this story, we’re reminded that genuine thankfulness flows from humility: recognizing our own needs, being open to receiving help, and seeing God’s faithful care woven through every part of our lives. As we gather, we’re invited to embrace a posture of continual thanksgiving, remembering that the Lord is good and His mercy endures forever.

The Unchanging God

Rob Hastings — Sun, 16 Nov 2025 09:35:49 +0000

The God we serve is unchanging. He did not shift between the Old Testament and the New Testament—His character has remained constant from the beginning. He is a God of justice and love, gracious and forgiving, yet also holy, righteous, and almighty. As believers, we cannot look to Scripture—or to the world—and expect them to adjust to our preferences. Instead, we are called to realign our lives to God’s unchanging standards and His perfect will.

The Greatness of God

Rob Hastings — Sun, 09 Nov 2025 09:29:47 +0000

Our view of God shapes everything—our lives, our understanding of the world, and even how we see ourselves. If we have a poor view of God, we will also have a poor view of the world. But when we study Scripture and focus on the attributes of God, it transforms us completely. It changes how we see the world, how we see ourselves, and ultimately shapes us to become true worshippers, wholly dedicated to our Lord and Savior. Join us today as we continue exploring the Character of God!

The Character of Jesus

Mickey Hall — Sun, 02 Nov 2025 09:26:03 +0000

Elder Mickey Hall continues his sermon series on the character of Jesus. As believers, we know we can never fully comprehend who God is—but we are called to study His Word and learn who He says He is. Through this, we grow in our understanding of His nature and deepen our relationship with Him. Join us as we continue this powerful study on the character of God and allow our understanding of our Creator to be stretched and strengthened.

More of Jesus

Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 10:13:41 +0000

Join us this Sunday as Elder Mickey Hall walks us through John 2 — the story of Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding in Cana. In this powerful passage, we see ordinary water transformed into extraordinary wine, revealing Christ’s glory and pointing us to the transforming power of His presence in our lives today. Come be encouraged to trust that when Jesus steps in, He can turn the ordinary moments of life into something miraculous.

What do you Think About God?

Rob Hastings — Sun, 19 Oct 2025 09:27:40 +0000

"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us" - A.W. Tozer So, with that said, what do you think about God? Do you base your idea of Him off of how you feel or off of scripture and truth? Do you base it off of stories or opinions? How do you live your life according to your ideas? These are the questions we will be diving into over the next few weeks as we start a new series on God, His Character, and how you fit into the story. Join us as we dive into a new series!

Is God Good?

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Oct 2025 09:24:52 +0000

How can we know that God is good? What does “goodness” even mean, and how can we recognize it? These are deep and honest questions—ones that both Christians and non-believers wrestle with. To truly understand the goodness of God, we must look beyond our own definitions of right and wrong and turn to Scripture, where God reveals His character and design for humanity. The Bible gives us insight into what goodness really is, why it matters, and how God Himself is the ultimate standard of it. Join us as we take a deeper look into God’s Word and explore one of life’s most foundational questions: Is God truly good?

Your Birthright to Happiness

Jerry Lewin — Sun, 05 Oct 2025 09:29:06 +0000

Today, we welcome Pastor Jerry Lewin from Great Commission Media Ministries (GCM) as he shares a powerful and encouraging message about God’s enduring promise to Abraham—and how that same promise still holds true for us as believers today. Even as we face loss and mourning in this life, God offers renewed joy to those who trust in Him and place their hope in His promises. Join us as Pastor Jerry brings a word of hope and also shares an exciting update on the work of Great Commission Media Ministries.

One Body, Many Roles, Shared Responsibility

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Sep 2025 10:02:01 +0000

Think of an orchestra. It’s made up of many different musicians, each playing a unique part, and every single one is essential. If the orchestra were made up of only trombones, it might sound interesting, but it wouldn’t have the richness and power of a full ensemble. In the same way, the family of Christ is made up of many people, each with their own God-given gifts. No one is extra, and every gift has a purpose. Together, we are called to use those gifts as one body to seek and save the lost. Join us today as Pastor Rob shares about gifting's, callings, and our responsibility to live them out.

He Will Do It

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Sep 2025 09:34:15 +0000

We are called to be fully surrendered to Christ—to lay every part of our lives before the King and trust Him to do as He wills. He has promised to use us, to bring His plans and purposes to completion. What He calls, He commits to. What He speaks will surely come to pass. God is faithful to fulfill every promise He has made. The question is—will you be faithful in return? Will you allow Him to work through you? To step into the broken places of your life and remind you that you are called, chosen, and set apart with a purpose and a plan? Will you open your heart and let Him speak?

We are the Church

Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Sep 2025 09:28:29 +0000

This Sunday, Pastor Rob brings a message of encouragement to our church family after a week marked by loss. In the closing chapter of 1 Thessalonians, we are reminded that we are the Church—each of us uniquely gifted by God. We see people using their unique gifts as missionaries, pastors, teachers, even in 9-5 job places, and their ministry should be challenging us to do the same. God longs for revival, even more than we do. The question is: are we willing to step forward in faith, using what He has entrusted to us, without fear of the future? Join us as we conclude our series on 1 Thessalonians with a call to live boldly in the gifts God has given.

The End Times Pt. 1

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 Sep 2025 09:29:53 +0000

Today we’re diving into 1 Thessalonians 5 as we continue exploring what Scripture says about the End Times. With so much turmoil happening in the world, we as believers are called to live ready for Christ’s return. But what does that really mean? How do we prepare our hearts? How do we shine brightly in the midst of darkness while we wait? Join us this Sunday as Pastor Rob unpacks the hope of Heaven and shares powerful insights on the End Times.

The Heavens

Mickey Hall — Sun, 31 Aug 2025 09:30:20 +0000

Today we hear from Pastor Mickey Hall, who teaches on truths and thoughts on heaven. What will heaven look like? What will it be like? These are questions you have asked or are currently asking. Join us as Mickey teaches on scripture and shares powerful stories about heaven!

Life After Earth

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Aug 2025 09:25:00 +0000

Today, we’re looking at what happens to Christians after death and what Scripture says about the End Times. The Bible speaks of the seven-year tribulation, the end of the age, and how believers are called to live in the meantime. The big questions are: Where do Christians go when they die? What will happen in the end? And how should we live faithfully while we’re here? Join us as we dive into 1 Thessalonians chapter 4!

Love Lived Out

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Aug 2025 09:30:08 +0000

Today, We Hear About Love Not the ooey-gooey kind we felt as teenagers, but real, genuine, self-sacrificing love—the kind that calls us to die to ourselves. Love is more than a feeling; it’s a way of life. As followers of Christ, it’s a state of being we’re called to live in daily. So how do we actually live this out? If the God of the universe loved us enough to send His only Son to die for our sins, how can we not extend that same love to others? Join us as we continue our study in 1 Thessalonians 4, and discover what it means to live in true, Christ-like love.

Sanctification

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Aug 2025 09:26:42 +0000

This week, we’re studying 1 Thessalonians chapter 4—a powerful exhortation from Paul to the believers. He urges them to live godly lives, to be set apart, and to put Christ above all else. Paul emphasizes that Christ calls us to be sanctified—to live lives that are holy and dedicated to righteousness. But what does sanctification really mean? What does God expect from us in this process? And how should we respond? Join us today as Pastor Rob explores the meaning of sanctification and how it should shape the way we live.

Abounding in Love

Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Aug 2025 09:31:57 +0000

How do you feel when you see others succeeding in their walk with Jesus? Does it bring you joy? Do we celebrate and encourage them? What about when we see our enemies stumble? Do we feel happy when they fall? Do we think, “Serves them right”? Jesus taught that we’re called to live in an upside-down Kingdom—one where we love our brothers and sisters, love our enemies, and pray for those who persecute us. So how do we actually live this out? Join us as Pastor Rob explores chapter 3 of 1 Thessalonians and shares practical guidance on how to love those around us.

Our Crown of Joy

Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Jul 2025 09:29:07 +0000

This life and this world are not the end of the story. Throughout the New Testament, we see the apostles living with their eyes fixed on eternity with the Lord God Almighty. They were not consumed by the temporary concerns of this world, but faithfully served Jesus in every word and action as they awaited His return. What about you? What are you looking forward to? Are your goals and plans shaped by this present life—or by the life to come? Join us as we explore the powerful truths and timely challenges of where our focus should truly be while we live here on earth.

The Word of God

Rob Hastings — Sun, 20 Jul 2025 09:25:52 +0000

The Word of God is alive—it’s not just a collection of ancient stories or moral guidelines. It’s a living handbook, a manual for life. Today, Pastor Rob shares a powerful message on the importance of regularly reading and engaging with Scripture. He challenges us to overcome excuses and resist the pull of laziness when it comes to spending time in God’s Word. Join us as we explore the vital and transformative role the Bible is meant to play in our daily lives.

1 Thessalonians: Examples of Christ

Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Jul 2025 09:24:49 +0000

Today we hear from Pastor Rob as he teaches on the journey of Paul in Thessalonica, and his other missionary journeys. As we look at chapter 2. we read that it is our duty to lead, to be examples of Christ, to shine bright to non believers and young believers. Are we doing this well? What can we change? Join us as we continue our Summer Series in Thessalonians!

Our Ministry

Mickey Hall — Sun, 06 Jul 2025 09:34:16 +0000

Today we hear from Pastor Mickey Hall as he dives into chapter 2 of Thessalonians. Pastor Hall teaches on our calling to be ministers, not to decieve or trick people into Christianity, but to speak with truth, kindness, and boldness. As Paul did with the Thessalonians, we are also meant to care for the broken around us, to share the hope of Christ, and to do so with joy. Join us as we continue our study in 1 Thessalonians!

Faith That Spreads

Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Jun 2025 09:29:23 +0000

When you throw a rock into a body of water, it creates ripples that spread outward from the point of impact. As believers, we are called to live our lives in a similar way—leaving a lasting impact wherever we go. Whether it's at work, in public, or within our relationships, our lives should reflect something noticeably different, prompting others to ask, “What is it about them?” In the first chapter of 1 Thessalonians, Paul expresses gratitude for the believers’ strong faith and the influence they had on others. Their faith had a ripple effect that spread far and wide. So we must ask ourselves: Are we having that same kind of impact? Would our church, families, and communities testify to the faith they see in us? Join us as we explore 1 Thessalonians chapter 1 and consider how our lives can leave a godly ripple effect in the world around us.

1 Thessalonians: Growing in Christ

Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Jun 2025 09:25:40 +0000

Today we start a new series on 1 Thessalonians. Many scholars believe that the letter to the Thessalonians was the first Paul wrote, and the church in Thessalonica holds great significance. This church was made up of devout believers who loved God and were striving to serve Him. Paul wrote to them to encourage, challenge, correct, and teach them. As we step into this series, our encouragement for the church is that we would do the same—pursue God with all we have, while also being open to correction, counsel, and teaching. Join us for our new summer series!

5 Traits of a Godly Man

The Road to Pentecost Pt. 2

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 May 2025 09:31:17 +0000

Jesus said "it is finished" on the cross. but it didn't mean that the everything was finished. The disciples were told to wait to share the Good News until the Holy Spirit came, until they were filled and anointed by His power. So what did it mean that Jesus was finished? Why didn't we get the Spirit in the beginning? Join us today as Pastor Rob continues his teaching on the Road to Pentecost and our part in this journey.

The Road to Pentecost

Rob Hastings — Sun, 18 May 2025 09:28:42 +0000

We begin a new journey today as we lead into Pentecost Sunday. What is Pentecost? Where did it come from? Is it even important? Join us as we dive into this new series!

Created Different

Pastor Rob & Shannon Hastings — Sun, 11 May 2025 10:37:45 +0000

Happy Mothers Day! Today we hear an important message on the uniqueness of man. God created us in His image, meaning we each carry aspects of the Father. We are created different, but that is a beautiful thing! How can we use this to better the Kingdom? How do we honor the Father and one another in our identities? We also hear from Shannon Hastings as she has walked her journey, and how the Lord has used her uniqueness as a mother. Join us as we dive into scripture!

Created Different

Pastor Rob & Shannon Hastings — Sun, 11 May 2025 09:27:44 +0000

Let It Go

Mark Johnson-of Forerunner Ministries — Sun, 04 May 2025 09:24:06 +0000

Today we hear from Mark Johnson from Forerunner Ministries. He shares an encouraging message about letting go, trusting and getting to know the Holy Spirit. How do we know the Holy Spirit? We often come up with our ideas or get stuck in the fear or Him, but He will reveal Himself, He will deepen our understanding, ONLY if we allow Him to. Join us today as we dive into a special message from Mark and Jangle Johnson.

I AM: The Vine

Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Apr 2025 09:28:06 +0000

When a branch is disconnected from the vine, it begins to wither, the fruit begins to fade, and the branch eventually dies. This is us. When we are disconnected from the Vine, we no longer produce fruit, and we wither in our faith. Christ taught that He is the Vine, and apart from Him, we can do nothing. Are you connected to Him? Do you need to be grafted to Him? Or are you withering? Join us today as we dive into our final part of I AM!

I AM: The Resurrection & The Life

Rob Hastings — Sun, 20 Apr 2025 09:25:42 +0000

Happy Resurrection Sunday! Today, we continue our I AM series with the incredible power of Christs Resurrection. Jesus just 3 days prior died on the Cross and was buried. After time of sorrow and doubt, He revealed Himself to His disciples, fulfilling scripture, and defeating death. What an awesome gift we have been given! Have you accepted this gift?

I AM: Peace

Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Apr 2025 09:25:07 +0000

The Jews had long awaited the coming King. The one who would save them from the oppression of the Romans, who would give them freedom to do as they pleased, to worship how they wanted to. The arrival of Jesus probably shocked them when He did not ride in on a steed, when he did not use violence with the Pharisees, and when he took the beatings from the Romans. These things all showed the True Peace that Jesus came to bring, which is Shalom. Today we dive into the peace that Christ actually brought, and why it is so much more important than the peace that we think we want. Join us as we dive into part 6 of I AM.

I AM: Love

Rob Hastings — Sun, 06 Apr 2025 09:27:13 +0000

What is love? What does it mean when the Bible says that God loves us? Why is there still pain and division if God is love? These are all very important questions that we ask, and there are answers to them! God is so vast, so holy, and he holds a love like no other. So what does godly love look like? Join us as we continue through the series on the I AM Statements of God.

I AM: The Good Shepherd

Rob Hastings — Sun, 30 Mar 2025 09:26:12 +0000

Sheep are pretty dull animals. They need a lot of care, guidance and protection. That is the Shepherds job, to care and to look after the sheep. They take them to where they should graze, and protect them at night from the darkness and the animals that lurk. That is who we are following, the Good Shepherd. Do you trust that today? Do you recognize what He is keeping you from? Join us today as we talk about how Christ is our Good Shepherd and how He protects us.

I AM: The Door

Rob Hastings — Sun, 23 Mar 2025 09:18:49 +0000

What is your protection? Do you trust yourself or do you trust the Lord? Jesus is the Shepherd, the one who protects us, leads us into good things and keeps us from danger. We have to trust that He will open the door at the right time, and keep it closed when the time is right. Do you trust Him to keep the door open or close the door at the right times?

I AM: The Light of the World

Rob Hastings — Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:30:43 +0000

There are lots of different kinds of lightbulbs. White light, hinted yellow light, or even blue light. But none of them compare to the true light that the sun offers us. The light that actually brings life to our bodies and minds. But we are often drawn to fake light, trying to find that perfect match that boosts our serotonin. How often we are drawn to the lights of this world, when our Savior and Lord tells us that He is the Only True Light of the world. What lights are drawing you in? Join us as we dive into part 4 of "I AM".

I AM: The Bread of Life

Rob Hastings — Sun, 09 Mar 2025 09:32:22 +0000

Jesus said He is the Bread of life. He alone can and will sustain us. But we often gravitate towards the quickest fix, something that will only temporarily satisfy our hunger. This leaves us dry, empty and hungry for more. How do we seek Jesus as He calls us to? How do we trust that He alone will sustain us? Join us as we continue our series on I AM.

I AM: Who is Jesus? - 2025/03/02

Rob Hastings — Sun, 02 Mar 2025 09:25:23 +0000

Today, we look at the Gospel of John. It differs greatly from the other gospels. The purpose of this is to show and prove the identity of Jesus as the Son of God. We often look at Jesus through the lens as the descendant of Adam and David, but He is beyond that, and we must see Him as such. But how? How do we know who is Jesus is? What can we learn about His character in this gospel specifically? Join, us as we answer more questions about "I AM: Jesus"

I AM - 2025/02/23

Rob Hastings — Sun, 23 Feb 2025 09:24:37 +0000

What is God's name? Is it God or is it something more? We can learn so much about who God says He is through His name. He gives us a clear description when He tells Moses what He should be called. We learn more about His name when The Father sends His Son. The Great I AM is almighty, all power, constant, faithful, loving, just and so much more. Join us as we dive into week 1 of "I AM".

Everyone Has a Part to Play - 2025/02/16

Rob Hastings — Sun, 16 Feb 2025 09:32:07 +0000

In 2 Kings, there is a little girl who helps in the healing of Naaman. We never find out this servant girl's name, but she plays a vital role by telling him about Elisha. We see stories similar to this time and time again in scripture. Long before Jesus gave us the command of the Great Commission, people still served to tell of prophets and the Good Works God had done. What are you doing in your part? Are you carrying out Jesus' command? Join us today as we dive into the important topic of playing our part in this life.

Better: Witness - 2025/02/09

Rob Hastings — Sun, 09 Feb 2025 09:31:15 +0000

What is a witness? Jesus calls us to be His witnesses when He is leaving earth. We are to teach what He taught, allowing the Spirit to flow through us to others. We are called to love one another in spirit and in truth, not just in love. We are called to be His representatives. So how do we do all of this? How do we implement this in our daily lives, and how to we get better at this Call? Join us today as we dive into Part 3 of Better!

Better: Better Choices - 2025/02/02

Rob Hastings — Sun, 02 Feb 2025 09:30:35 +0000

Hot pockets are pretty toxic. They contain poor ingredients, with low nutritional value. Yet, we find ourselves eating them and keeping stock of them in our homes. This can be the same with other things in our lives; people, hobbies, even our attitudes. Today we dive into how we can make better choices in the new year. How can we let go of old things, replace them with godly things, and start to change the toxicity in our lives. Join us we dive into part 3 of Better!

Better: Better Relationships 2b - 2025/01/26

Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Jan 2025 09:34:15 +0000

Today, we continue to hear about relationships. Healthy relationships start with a healthy you. God desires and even calls us to look at ourselves and examine our hearts. What is in my life? Am I producing fruit? Am I a healthy person to be in relationship (friendship included!) with? Join us as we wrap up part two of Better Relationships!

Better: Better Relationships - 2025/01/19

Rob Hastings — Sun, 19 Jan 2025 09:26:17 +0000

In the beginning, God created man, and said it was not good for him to be alone. Although He was physically walking with him, He knew Adam needed a life long partner who would be by his side through it all. King David had a soul deep friendship with Jonathan. Paul had a friendship and close ministry relationship with Barnabas. We see close friendships and relationships throughout scripture! How can we pursue these kinds of relationships? What does it mean for us to have biblical and healthy relationships today? Join us as we dive into Part 2a on Better: New Year, Better You.

Better: Kingdom Minded - 2025/01/12

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Jan 2025 09:25:35 +0000

As believers, we have a lot of opinions about certain topics in the Bible. Will we experience a rapture before the tribulation? Will we live through the tribulation? Will we experience part of the tribulation? This is one example of a topic we may disagree on. But the truth of this question is that it shouldn't affect how we live, how we pursue Christ and how we treat others. Today Pastor Rob talks about priorities, beliefs, truth, and what our focus should be on while we are here on earth. Who and what is your focus on? What are you basing your life on? Join us as we hear the Word of God!

Walking Into Gods Plan - 2025/01/05

Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Jan 2025 09:34:22 +0000

What is God trying to point out in me? Am I hiding sins? Have I been living in a way that is unpleasing to Him? These are questions we should be asking moving into 2025. Our hearts ultimate desire should be to live our God given purpose and plan, but how can we do that? Today, Pastor Rob preaches on the questions we should be asking and the things we should be changing as we follow Jesus. Join us as we dive into the New Year!

Reflection Aids Direction - 2024/12/29

Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Dec 2024 09:28:45 +0000

We often look back on our past year and find ourselves very anxious over the things we didn't do. We then proceed to make a resolutions list that is beyond achievable. This is all in hopes that we will "do better" next year. But this isn't quite how we are called to live. Pastor Rob shows us Philippians 4:6 which says "Don't be anxious about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done." Join us today as we hear the word, and get helpful tools of how to start a new year, how to make achievable resolutions, and how to look back at 2024 and look forward to 2025.

Christmas Eve 2024 - 2024/12/24

Join us for our Christmas Eve Candlelight service! Celebrating with those in person and online.

What does it mean to have Joy? - 2024/12/22

Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Dec 2024 09:30:45 +0000

Joy doesn't come based on circumstances, but we often expect it to. We pursue this feeling of always have "Joy" as Christ instructed us. But perhaps we are seeking the wrong "joy". Joy goes beyond a feeling and a mindset but it is in fact an internal understanding of who God is. When we know this, we can confidently live and walk in TRUE joy. How do we do this? How do we live in joy? Join us today as Pastor Rob brings the final Sunday of Advent.

What About the Women? - 2024/12/15

Nancy & Josue Lemus — Sun, 15 Dec 2024 09:34:36 +0000

Today we have the pleasure of hearing from Josue Lemus visiting from Guatemala. He shares about the Jeremiah Project, the students and team there, and he dives into a message on love. Jesus never forgot the women who served Him, in fact, He noticed them, and used them in many mighty ways. Josue dives into scripture to point out how often Jesus remembered those who would have been forgotten otherwise. Join us in week three of Advent!

Peace Makers vs. Peace Keepers - 2024/12/08

Mickey Hall — Sun, 08 Dec 2024 09:38:25 +0000

Christ came as our peace maker. He came to pour our His perfect peace, and to encourage us to keep in perfect peace. But what does this mean? Are we called to be peace keepers or peace makers? What is the difference? Today, Mickey Hall brings us week two of Advent and dives into scripture to show us what peace Christ offers, and how we should be pursuing His peace and not our own. Join us!

Hope In Him - 2024/12/01

Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Dec 2024 09:32:42 +0000

Advent in Greek is Adventis which translates to "coming". The promise of Christ was made at the beginning, and for those who lived throughout the Old Testament, the coming Messiah couldn't come any sooner. The same translated for the disciples in the New Testament. When would His second coming happen? It can be the same in our lives. When will the next good thing happen? We often get side tracked, putting our hope in temporary things. Today we look at what it means to hope and where we should be putting our hope. Join us as we dive into His hope!

The First Thanksgiving - 2024/11/24

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Nov 2024 09:31:43 +0000

The First Thanksgiving. We have come a long way, maybe too far from where it began. Today, Pastor Rob dives deep into the first Thanksgiving, the Puritans traveling to Plymouth, and the trust they kept in God while doing so. They kept an attitude of Thankfulness, not just gratefulness. Join us as we hear the difference between those two words and challenge if we have been practicing thankfulness in our own lives.

What Are We Doing? - 2024/11/17

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Nov 2024 09:30:36 +0000

In Matthew, Jesus calls the disciples out of their lifestyle and tells them He will make them Fishers of Men. As they go throughout their ministry, we see that each one of those disciples has been given a gift. Each one is able to help people and the ministry in their own way. We too have been given unique and personal gifts. The question is what are we doing with them? Pastor Rob brings us a challenging message on our Call today as Believers. Are you answering the call Christ has placed on you?

What Now? - 2024/11/10

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Nov 2024 09:48:29 +0000

In 1990, 90% of the adult population in America claimed to be Christian. Today, 67% CLAIM to be Christian. What happened? We are going the wrong way, and why is that? The last words Jesus spoke to His Disciples, to us, was to go out into all the world, preaching the gospel and making disciples. Are we doing that? Are we even following Christ wholeheartedly? Today, Pastor Rob asks some difficult questions, and brings up some powerful points about where we are at in the world, what is happening, and how we should be living. Join us as we dive into todays message!

Why Do We Do What We Do? - 2024/11/03

Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Nov 2024 09:31:32 +0000

Why do we brush our teeth with the same hand every time we do it? Why do we pour cereal first and then milk? Why do we do things the way we do them? Today, we talk about this important question and how it is linked to our Walk. It is important to understand how we function, how we live, and why in order to grow, to change if needed, and to strengthen our personal relationships and maturity in Jesus. Join us as we dive in!

Salt & Light - 2024/10/27

Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Oct 2024 09:30:30 +0000

Salt is a big deal, in fact, it is essential to life. But as Believers, we've become less salty in the areas we need to be. Today, we look at Matthew 5, when Jesus calls us to be salt and light in the world. Not in the church, but outside of it. How do we do that practically and what does it mean to be salt and light in a dark world? Join us as Pastor Rob preaches on this important topic.

Who Do You Say I Am? - 2024/10/20

Mickey Hall — Sun, 20 Oct 2024 10:18:41 +0000

(Second half of the stream from 10/20) Mickey Hall brings us a message on who God says you are. In a chaotic world, there are so many voices telling us how to behave, and who we should be, we often get side tracked and forget who God calls us to be and what He calls us. Join us as we hear from Pastor Mickey today!

Who Do You Say I Am? - 2024/10/20

Mickey Hall — Sun, 20 Oct 2024 09:27:15 +0000

Mickey Hall brings us a message on who God says you are. In a chaotic world, there are so many voices telling us how to behave, and who we should be, we often get side tracked and forget who God calls us to be and what He calls us. Join us as we hear from Pastor Mickey today!

Truth, Lie, Fact, Fiction... What is what? - 2024/10/13

Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Oct 2024 09:32:16 +0000

Disinformation. A new word that can be defined as ways people spread things to confuse people. Which, today, has become like second nature. We have things like AI, news, and social media that are being used and abused to confuse people, to spread rumors, and to impersonate people. The question is, what can we believe? Where should be spend our time? Today, we dive into this topic and learn how to discern truth from the lies. Join us!

Whole Hearted Living - 2024/10/06

Rob Hastings — Sun, 06 Oct 2024 09:29:34 +0000

It's a scary proposition to follow the Lord wholeheartedly... until you do it. So, what does it mean to live wholeheartedly for Jesus? How do we do so? Today, Pastor Rob dives into this topic on how we are supposed to live when we accept Christ. It isn't a half hearted commitment, it isn't that we can come in and out when it pleases us. It is a committed relationship and fellowship where we wake up and choose the cross every day. Join us as we dive into this topic and how to apply it practically.

How to be Successful - 2024/09/29

Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Sep 2024 09:28:38 +0000

There are so many successful people and leaders in Scripture. We focus specifically on David today. David was named as the man after God's own heart and he found success in all things he did, and why is that? Is it his great faith in God? His obedience? The answer is yes. Join us as we dive into 1 and 2 Samuel and look at the life of David, an imperfect man who served the Lord faithfully.

Jerry Lewin: GCM Ministries - 2024/09/22

Jerry Lewin — Sun, 22 Sep 2024 09:21:12 +0000

We have a special guest speaker, Jerry Lewin, from Great Commission Media Ministries. We have had Pastor Dave Ogren in place for many years, and as he has retired, Jerry has taken the place of US Missions Director. Today, he shares more about the ministry, what they have done in the past year, and plans moving forward. He also shares a wonderful message on peace and hope for our lives and the promises God gives us. Join us as we hear from Jerry!

Checking In - 2024/09/15

Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Sep 2024 09:36:24 +0000

Today, Pastor Rob takes time to discuss the importance of standing next to one another in periods of trial and trauma. This past week for a lot of people may have been challenging, traumatic, or a loss. For others it may have been a much needed break, a time to spend with family, even a vacation. Whatever it may be, we want to be sure we are talking with one another. Checking in on friends that may have lost work or even a home during the fire. We need to gather to encourage and lift one another up in prayer. Join us, and we pray that you feel comforted and encouraged this morning!

Sunday Sermon: The Desert - 2024/09/08

Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Sep 2024 09:34:59 +0000

Sometimes God sends us into the desert. Sometimes we put ourselves there. Sometimes we just go into the desert. Being in the desert is hard, dry and sometimes painful. The Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years before they experienced the Promise Land. We don't always know how long it will last, or how challenging it may be, but while we are there, we need to pursue our Creator, trusting in Him, and allowing Him to lead us through it all. We are called to walk differently than the rest of the world. Today, we hear as Pastor Rob talks about the challenges of the desert, but also how we are called to live during those seasons.

Not Made for the Mountains: Learning to Thrive - 2024/09/01

Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Sep 2024 09:40:27 +0000

The Word of God is the Truth. But sometimes we can skew the context of the scripture, and it gets confusing. It is the same with the world around us. We get lost in the ideologies of the secular world, that we lose our focus. Our main goal should be to lose the world and gain our soul. We need to be sitting, walking, and standing in the ways of the Lord. But how do we do that? How do we focus on Christ when our lives are a whirlwind around us? Today Pastor Rob shows the difference between the World and Heavenly truth, and how we can fix our gaze and hearts upon Christ.

Not Made for the Mountains: Life on the Plains - 2024/08/25

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Aug 2024 09:33:21 +0000

There was a study done awhile ago about the state of mind/being that people live in. People either survive, strive, or thrive. Reminds you of the seasons, doesn't it? It can be so easy to get stuck in survival mode, and often it is difficult to get out. Today, Pastor Rob reminds us of a couple vital truths that we need to remember and walk in while we navigate the plains; the ordinary.

Not Made for the Mountains - 2024/08/18

Rob Hastings — Sun, 18 Aug 2024 09:23:55 +0000

Patience comes to those who wait... this is saying w e have lost, sadly. Society has moved so fast that everything is expected to come NOW. We don't want to wait for the good things to come. Christianity is a marathon, not a sprint. Today Pastor Rob preaches about what it means to be patient during the challenging seasons, and to wait for our mountain top times to come at the right time.

Lessons From Lazarus - 2024/08/11

Rob Hastings — Sun, 11 Aug 2024 09:32:27 +0000

Jesus allowed Lazarus to die, why? We look at John 11 and see that Jesus waited for him to die, yet he was saddened by his death. What a confusing chapter! But there is so much more in what we read, and today Pastor Rob shows us that there was an important lesson behind the death and resurrection of Lazarus, a deeper lesson than just Jesus revealing His power. Join us as wee look at Johns Gospel!

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made - 2024/08/04

Rob Hastings — Sun, 04 Aug 2024 09:33:12 +0000

You are fearfully and wonderfully made because you were made by the Creator. That is a powerful statement, and it is easy to overlook it, ignore it, or not understand it. But it is vital we understand this truth as we are called to more than what we are living now. We are called to leap out in faith and strive to become all that the Father created us for, and therefore knows we can be. Join us today as Pastor Rob speaks in truth about Your Truth!

Life Lessons from the Kid's - 2024/07/28

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Jul 2024 09:38:20 +0000

This week, we hosted our church's first VBS: Vacation Bible School. It was so incredible see how God worked in the kid's hearts, opening them up to what the teachers and parents had to bring. It was incredible seeing so many people rally together for such a big event and also be changed and shaped. In the book of Matthew, Jesus tells them to let the little children come to Him. He cares deeply for them, and they have a deep understanding of Him. Today, Pastor Rob shares what HE learned from the young ones this past week. Join us in the boat as we hear the Word!

Our Need for More - 2024/07/21

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Jul 2024 09:35:09 +0000

Today we have a lot to celebrate as Pastor Rob returns from his 10 week Sabbatical. We hear all that the Lord did during this time, and a tid-bit of what is to come. We are excited for this season as a church, for what the Lord is doing and we are reminded that there is so much more in store. No matter how much we may think we have, we do, or participate in as believers, Christ always has more for us to have and to experience. Our need and desire for Him should increase daily. Join us as we welcome back our Pastor and receive the Word.

The Hope of Resurrection - 2024/07/14

Zach Hafner — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 09:32:02 +0000

Hope is crucial to the human experience... Charles R. Snyder. We all need hope, and we have been given a hope that is unique to the Christian faith. Today, Zach Hafner brings a word on hope and how as believers, we have to shift our thinking. Christ promised so many things for the end times, things that we are to look forward to, but many of us have forgotten. We encourage you to listen to this powerful word from Pastor Hafner as he shares his heart and brings the truth.

How We Should Pray - 2024/07/07

Joel Comiskey — Sun, 07 Jul 2024 09:38:31 +0000

Today we hear part two of Joel Comiskey's sermons. Joel leads us into how we should pray. There are so many ways to pray, but in John we read that we are called to pray according to scripture and to the Lord's will, not our own. We are called to pray with thanksgiving. We are called to persistently pray and in faith, believing that God will answer our prayers. Join us as we read and study the Word in this special message!

Jesus' Prayer For Us - 2024/06/30

Joel Comiskey — Sun, 30 Jun 2024 09:26:28 +0000

Today we hear from Joel Comiskey on James 17. We are shown a powerful prayer that Jesus prayed, and how He prayed it specifically for us, His followers. We see how Christ interceded for us often, and we are encouraged to do the same. Join us as we dive into scripture with our guest Pastor! Be encouraged! Be blessed!

Defining Moments - 2024/06/23

Mickey Hall — Sun, 23 Jun 2024 09:33:41 +0000

Today, Mickey Hall brings the word on our defining moments. We are shown so many times in scripture where Jesus has defining moments, and are encouraged to reflect on our life and our defining moments. We are given challenges and circumstances to work through, to allow to shape us into what God has created. So join us as we study the word!

It's Up To Us - 2024/06/16

Mikey Valenzuela — Sun, 16 Jun 2024 09:24:30 +0000

Today we hear from Mikey Valenzuela for Fathers Day. Mikey brings a powerful word about the importance of being a godly father. With so much sin in the world, children look to their parents and especially their fathers on how to behave, speak, and act. When children are given a poor example of Christianity, they will often live that out themselves. Mikey encourages fathers to step up, to put their faith in the Lord, and lean on Him alone for wisdom and guidance so that in turn, they can offer and teach that to their children. Join us as we hear from Mikey.

Disciples - 2024/06/09

Eric Jensen — Sun, 09 Jun 2024 09:17:01 +0000

Today we hear from Pastor Eric on the topic of disciples. Do we truly know how to be disciples? Pastor Eric reminds us that discipleship has been around since the early days of scripture, and shows us how it has changed and how it has stayed the same. We are the shown the fire and discipline of the disciples who followed Christ, and we are challenged with the same thing. Am I truly following Christ? Ready to drop everything to follow Him? Join us today as we hear from our guest pastor.

An Unwavering Kingdom Community - 2024/06/02

Zach Hafner — Sun, 02 Jun 2024 09:30:08 +0000

Today we hear from Pastor Zach Hafner from Ridgeside City Church. Zach brings us the word from 1 John, to the community John was writing to at the time. We are given 4 points on the importance of community, following scripture and living together under the Word. The Body is more than gathering on Sundays. So join us as Zach delivers a powerful message on a Kingdom Community.

Living a Powerful Christian Life - 2024/05/26

Mickey Hall — Sun, 26 May 2024 09:25:28 +0000

Today we hear part two of Pastor Mickey's message, Living an Overcoming Life. As we dove deeper into Acts 5, we saw that the disciples were so determined to preach the Good News. Even after being flogged, they rejoiced, and returned to the temple to preach! They were persecuted but not defeated. Today we hear how we can apply that practically, and the joy of pushing through the hard circumstances, and striving to live a powerful life for Christ Jesus.

Living an Overcoming Life - 2024/05/19

Mickey Hall — Sun, 19 May 2024 09:25:15 +0000

Today we hear Pastor Mickey Hall deliver a message about living an overcoming life. Sometimes in life we are far behind the rest of the racers, and in the sight of man, we won't ever catch up to them, let alone win. But with God, all things are possible in His power and Will. We have to fix our sight on Him no matter what is happening around us. We have to seek His Kingdom first, and trust that He is all power and can do anything He wants. Join us today as we hear part one of Living an Overcoming Life.

Becoming Someone of Great Faith - 2024/05/12

Jason Frenn — Sun, 12 May 2024 09:27:07 +0000

Today we have special guest, Jason Frenn, a worldwide evangelist and author. Jason delivers a message on not throwing in the towel. Often times we are challenged in our walks. With many things against us, we also have the prompting of the Lord to do his work. But, in order to do the Good Work, we have to love Jesus. Without our walks being founded and grounded in Christ, we cannot pursue the works He sets before us. We have to step into strength, and pick up the Word, feeding ourselves before we can feed the sheep.

The Will of God - 2024/05/05

Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 May 2024 09:26:40 +0000

The will of God. What a daunting sentence this can be. We tell ourselves that we must find God's will for our life otherwise we will get it wrong and be stuck. But that is not what God's will is. He has such great things in store, and often, they are vastly different from what we expect. Pastor Rob brings our attention to the scripture and turns our focus to a different idea. Perhaps we need to change our perspective from the One Will of God, and instead pursue the Desires of God. Join us as we dive into scripture today!

Spirit Side - 2024/04/28

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Apr 2024 09:26:49 +0000

Who has the Spirit actively living in them? Well we do, those who have repented and accepted Christ to be their Lord and Savior have the Spirit of the Lord dwelling inside of them. So how does that affect us? The Spirit is inside of us to guide us, to lead us to righteous living. We are called to live by the Spirit and not by our flesh. Living by the Spirit does not mean we will always get it right, but it does mean it is our job to pursue a holy life, and seek the Lord, asking for guidance. Pastor Rob dives into scripture today to show us the difference between a fleshly and spirit filled life. Join us as we study the Word.

The Heart of the Father - 2024/04/21

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Apr 2024 09:28:17 +0000

Each one of us have more than one attribute that drives us. So what drives God? We can look at Genesis 1:1 and get one of His attributes, and it is that He is an artist; a creator. We look at the world, and we see so much beauty, yet so much destruction because it has been spoiled by man. But the Garden, Creation, that was untouched beauty, made by God for us, and it was untouched by man until the Fall. When the fall happened, God came into the Garden searching for Adam and his wife. He wasn't searching because he didn't know where they were, but because He knew spiritually they were lost. Christ came into this world to search for those who are lost, to save them from the spoiled world, so one day, we can spend eternity in His perfection.

Position Yourself - 2024/04/14

Bishop Abel Oyaro — Sun, 14 Apr 2024 09:26:20 +0000

Today we hear from Bishop Abel Oyaro from Nairobi, Kenya. Along with updates and prayer points for his ministries, he also delivers an awesome message about positioning ourselves for breakthrough. We have to place ourselves in the place to receive from the Lord, to be blessed, and to experience Him. When we are in the positions Christ wants us in, we are able to do so much more than we could ever ask, think or imagine through Him. He is in control, He is all power, and can do all things, but we must be in the place to be used and blessed by Him. Join us today as we hear from our guest speaker.

Using Our Gifts for the Kingdom - 2024/04/07

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 Apr 2024 09:31:04 +0000

Everyone has gifts. Everyone has areas where they can serve. This can be a hard concept for us to grasp. A lot of us would argue saying "No, it's not my calling to serve", or "I just wasn't gifted with anything so I will just receive". It is so easy to fall into these mindsets, but it just isn't true. Just as we all have unique personalities, we also have unique gifting. They are all different, and they are all needed. Without people serving on the media team, we wouldn't have worship, without people serving snacks and coffee, we would probably have a lot of people napping through the message. We need to remember that God has called each one of to serve, and it may be different from someone else, but lets obey the call. Join us as we dive into Spiritual Gifting today!

Easter Changes Everything - 2024/03/31

Rob Hastings — Sun, 31 Mar 2024 09:27:44 +0000

He is Risen! These words changed everything. Christ was no longer in the grave, but was alive and well. He beat death, rose again, and now is alive in us! This news would be told for thousands of years, and will continue to be told until the end of the ages. Christ is alive, and we need to remember and celebrate this truth. His sacrifice changed the world, it allowed us to enter into a personal relationship with Him. He took our sins upon Himself which allows us to enter into eternity with Him. His sacrifice and rising again changed everything.

The Suffering Servant - 2024/03/29

Pastor Rob Hastings — Fri, 29 Mar 2024 17:50:54 +0000

Join us for our Good Friday service as we hear and see a reenactment of the final hours with Jesus. We see the disciples mourning and questioning what Jesus was trying to speak to them in His last hours on earth.

It It Time Yet? - 2024/03/24

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Mar 2024 09:29:38 +0000

It is almost time. Jesus' time had come to enter Jerusalem, on the donkey, fulfilling the prophecies. The people gathered around, laying their coats and palm branches on the road, shouting "Hosanna, praise the Son of David!" Hosanna - save us. Jesus came to save. The people knew it, they knew this was the King, they just didn't understand why, nor how it would work. The time had come, and Jesus was about to show them how He would save them. Join us as we jump into scripture and prepare ourselves for Passion Week.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 8: Friendship - 2024/03/17

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Mar 2024 09:26:25 +0000

We need to seek friendship intentionally. We have to be open to it when it's around, but we have to remember to seek out people, be friendly, and reach out to people. God made us to be in community, and we can look at the God Head, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, there are all one commune God. God walked with Adam and Eve in the garden, He lived in community with them. We should be following the example of our Father, walking in community with not only Him, but others too. Today we dive into a deep study about community, friendship and how we should pursue relationship. Join us!

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 7: Community - 2024/03/10

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Mar 2024 09:26:25 +0000

Unity means we have things in common, but it does not mean we are all the same. As Christians, we are called to have unity with one another. This does not mean we are the same people, with the same personalities, and the same gifting. It means that we have one thing, Christ Jesus, as our center. We all have one calling, and it is Matthew 28, the Great Commission. We are called to know God and make Him known, but we will all have different gifting to do this. It isn't that the worship team will work over here, the teachers will work over there, and the hospitality team will work in their corner. It is that we will all work together to create a space for people to know God. We will work together as one, even if our gifts and talents differ. Today, we really dive into what it means to be in community with one another, how we can pursue it, and maintain it.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 6: Community - 2024/03/03

Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Mar 2024 09:58:58 +0000

(Our apologies, we had technical difficulty, and only the tail end of worship was recorded) The body of Christ should be a community. As a community, we should look different from the rest of the world. This can be so hard to swallow, but as Believers, we should be setting ourselves apart. Our community, our mindset, should be different from any other community or people. Today we really unpack what it means to align ourselves with other Christians, and how we should live with one another, serving one another, and bringing light to the darkness.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 5: Community - 2024/02/25

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Feb 2024 09:27:27 +0000

Communication is key. This is the epitome of any healthy relationship. But often times we find that one person talks more than the other, or one is always complaining about an issue in the relationship, but nothing is ever quite resolved. Isn't that how it can sometimes look with God? One of us is always talking, trying to "resolve" issues in the relationship, but we never do the second part of communicate which is listen. We have to sit, we have to listen, we have to make sure we are understanding what God is telling us. join us today as we dive into a study about what it means to have good communication with God and not just at God.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 4: Prayer - 2024/02/18

Susan Stoppenbrink — Sun, 18 Feb 2024 09:26:47 +0000

Today we have special guest speaker, Susan Stoppenbrink bringing a word on Prayer. Prayer is such a vital piece of our walk with God, but it often gets missed. We bring our cares to Him when we need Him, but any other time, we just leave Him alone. But we're missing a key part of a relationship with God when we do this. There are so many ways to communicate and spend time with Christ, and today, Susan shares some of her testimony and some amazing ways to communicate and spend time with Christ.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 3: Communication - 2024/02/11

Rob Hastings — Sun, 11 Feb 2024 09:26:10 +0000

A habit that we often miss is communication with God. We may read our Bibles, or journal, we may even pray. But how do our prayers look? Are they just requests to God or is it communication? God wants to talk with us, He wants to communicate. Instead of approaching Him with an "I need or I want" mentality, let's approach Him with open hands and open hearts, bringing Him the truest version of ourselves. He knows us fully, so let's fully give ourselves to Him today.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 2: Communication - 2024/02/04

Rob Hastings — Sun, 04 Feb 2024 09:29:08 +0000

We have direct passage to God. We don't have to talk to a priest, or go through someone in order to communicate with our heavenly Father. But often times, we don't even communicate with Him. We talk to Him when life is hard or when we need something, and then we remain quiet until the next issue in life. Here's the thing, we often feel like when things are challenging that God does not speak, but why would He speak to us and guide us if we aren't pursuing Him? We want to flip the script, we want to pursue quality time with Him, praying, talking, and pursuing the Word of God.

Habits for Spiritual Maturity Pt. 1 - 2024/01/28

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Jan 2024 09:25:44 +0000

Spiritual Maturity. We often hear this term in church and it can sometimes sound confusing. But it is quite a simple definition, and it is Being Like Christ. Simple, right? Not exactly. How does maturity work? It often involves a lot of growing, changing, working hard, and this is a process. Maturity is not automatic, it does not happen overnight. It takes time and work. This is the first week of many where we will dive into a deep study of what it means to be spiritually mature, what it will take, and the practical steps we can take. Join us as we study the Word together!

Setting Goals - 2024/01/21

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Jan 2024 09:27:43 +0000

Setting goals can be so important for our Christian walk. Setting goals like reading our Bibles for 30 minutes every day, reading through the New Testament in a year, setting aside prayer time with Him. These things are so important to our walks! It can be easy to forget them, but as we step into this new year, our goal is to keep to these things. Standing alongside and encouraging one another to stick to the goals we have set up for the year. Join us as we dive into the word today!

Become Mature in the Lord - 2024/01/14

Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Jan 2024 09:26:48 +0000

We often think that parents are raising their children, but we need to change this. Parents are not raising children, but are raising adults. If they did not raise adults, we would a lot more adults crawling around asking to be fed and changed. When God designed us, he did not intend for us to remain infants in Christ. He wanted us to grow up, to be able to chew solid food, and walk on our own. He designed us so we could deepen our relationship with Him, and go beyond the first few years of our Christian walk. God designed us in so uniquely. Just as babies start out not being able to walk and talk, and then growing into running toddlers who climb on things, and begin picking up new things and learning about the world around them. We are to continue growing just as these little ones do. Not remaining stagnant in our faith, but learning how to walk and talk with Jesus, learning how to pray, and to study the Word of God. Join us today as we dive into the message on Becoming Mature in the Lord.

First Things First - 2024/01/07

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 Jan 2024 09:30:45 +0000

Going into a new year, we want to be sure we are seeking God and His Kingdom. We can get very caught up in the love aspect of seeking Him. And loving the Lord is so important, just like we love our friends, spouses, children, and family. But we also need to take time to spend with them, doing an activity they like to do, reaching out to someone to get a coffee to catch up. We SEEK God, we long and desire for Him. Once we do this, our attitudes change. Our hearts change. They become more attune to Jesus because we are actively spending time with our Maker. Join us today as we dive into this New Year and study the importance of seeking Jesus.

A Time for Everything - 2023/12/31

Rob Hastings — Sun, 31 Dec 2023 09:27:03 +0000

There is a time for everything, a time for weeping, a time for rejoicing. This verse explains our lives here, doesn't it? Life seems to throw good things and can also bring hard things. It brings joy and sorrow. It brings rest and busyness. We are going into a new year and it can bring mixed feelings about how we lived and how life looked over the past 12 months. Today service looks a little different, as we invite a few people to share some hard things and good things about their year. We are so encouraged by these things as we hear how God has moved in our brothers and sisters lives. Join us today as we praise the Lord and ring in the New Year together.

Joy vs. Happiness - 2023/12/24

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Dec 2023 09:36:04 +0000

What is the difference between joy and happiness? What does it mean to experience God's joy? Especially in such troubling times. It can be so easy to see it as another word for happiness, but there is such a deep and powerful meaning of the word. There is also such power that comes from learning how to live with joy when life is challenging or bleak. Join us today as we finish our Advent Study.

Peace - 2023/12/17

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Dec 2023 09:32:05 +0000

Silent Night, Holy Night. All is calm, all is bright. That must have been a peaceful night, as Jesus was born into the world through the Virgin Mary. But something deeper was going on in the spiritual. Today we take a look at a different kind of peace than the one we sing about in Christmas Songs. The peace that only comes from the Lord, and how we can pursue this and seek him for it. Join us as we dive into the third week of advent.

What Is Love? - 2023/12/10

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Dec 2023 09:27:24 +0000

How do we define and capture this idea of love? Does love exist outside of the Lord? If God is love, how can that be? Today we answer some of these hard questions. We understand the true meaning of love, and God's definition of love. We dive deep into scripture and remember that outside of God, hope, love, peace, and joy cannot be fully experienced without God, as He is all of those things and so many more. Join us as we continue our Advent Study.

Looking for Hope - 2023/12/03

Nancy & Josue Lemus — Sun, 03 Dec 2023 09:26:45 +0000

Today we hear from Josue Lemus. He and his wife Nancy are long term missionaries in Antigua, Guatemala, working with an organization called the Jerimiah Project. This project provides a place for kids to go after school to eat, learn about the Bible, play games, and socialize. We invite you to listen in as they update us on their mission work and enjoy an encouraging message on Hope from Josue.

What Did Jesus Mean? - 2023/11/26

Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Nov 2023 09:27:32 +0000

Today we look at Matthew chapter 7, where Jesus teaches the Believers how they should live. But some of the scriptures seem to contradict themselves. So what did Jesus mean when He said to judge not, but then later said, judge them by their fruit? Today we dissect these challenging verses, and try to understand what the Scripture is saying. Join us as we continue our study of the Sermon on the Mount.

Don't Worry, Be Thankful - 2023/11/12

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Nov 2023 09:30:53 +0000

Something we as Christians often do is worry about anxiety. We fear that Jesus will be mad at us as He specifically told us not to worry (Mat. 6:25). But that isn't what this verse is about. In the world today, we see a lot of people who struggle with anxiety and worry, and these are all normal things. Today is the first part of a two parter about anxiety. What is it? What does the Bible say about it? And how can we help people who struggle with anxiety? Please join us this morning as continue our study of the Sermon on the Mount.

Earthly Treasures - 2023/11/05

Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Nov 2023 09:31:03 +0000

Anything can become an idol. Whether it is social media, food, sleep, work, our spouse, we can place a higher value on things rather than our Maker. Today we dive into scripture about storing up treasures here on earth. What does that look like for us today? Is there anything that I am bowing down to and making an idol? Join us as we meditate on the Sermon on the Mount.

The Kingdom of Christ - 2023/10/29

Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Oct 2023 09:27:31 +0000

Christ belongs to The Kingdom. He longs for us to be in that Kingdom with Him. But what does that mean? Today we look at Matthew 6 and study the truth that this is not the kingdom that Christ promised us, but that we will one day be in the new Kingdom that He created to live in and with us. Join us today as we continue our study of the Sermon on the Mount.

Sermon on the Mount Pt. 5 - 2023/10/22

Mickey Hall — Sun, 22 Oct 2023 10:13:39 +0000

Today, we continue to hear from Mickey Hall as he dives into chapter 5 of the book of Matthew. We go into the hard topics of the Sermon on the Mount. What does it mean to love our neighbor, or our enemy? How can we be keeping our word as Believers? How do I show God's light in every aspect of life? Join us this morning as we continue our study in Matthew.

The Sermon on the Mount Pt. 4 - 2023/10/15

Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Oct 2023 09:26:04 +0000

Today we hear from Mickey Hall as he teaches us about Christ's fulfillment of the law. When Christ taught the Disciples, He changed the 10 commandments, which was blasphemy in that time. But Christ came to fulfill the law, to teach them something new. Join us as we dive deep into Matthew 5 today.

Salt and Light - 2023/10/08

Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Oct 2023 09:27:38 +0000

You are the light of the world. You are the salt of the earth. But what happens when the light is dim? People can lose their way, they can get stuck in the darkness. What happens when salt loses it's flavor? Well it is meaningless. Our duty as believers is to bring light into the darkness. Even the smallest amount of light can illuminate a big space. The smallest amount of salt will add life to a dish. How do we fulfill this calling? Join us today as we dive into scripture, and continue our study of the Sermon on the Mount.

Sermon on the Mount Pt. 2 - 2023/10/01

Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Oct 2023 09:20:18 +0000

We continue our study on the Sermon on the Mount, going over the Beatitudes, and looking at practical application for us today. Jesus was personal, he sat with the people, he came down to our level, and spoke truth and life into us. As we dive into his teaching today, prepare your heart for what God has for you. How can I be open to You today, Lord? Speak to me personally, and allow your Words to penetrate my heart and become a part of my everyday life.

The Sermon on The Mount Pt. 1 - 2023/09/24

Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Sep 2023 09:28:20 +0000

Today we dive into the Beatitudes, which no, these do not mean 'attitudes that we should be'. Instead beatitudes translate to supreme blessedness, or extremely happy. So what does that mean for us as Believers? This sermon kicks off our 8 week series on the Sermon on the Mount. Please join us today as we dive into scripture and see what the Sermon on the Mount means for us as believers today.

Who Are You? Pt. 3 - 2023/09/17

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Sep 2023 09:24:55 +0000

When we step into a relationship with God, we often get stuck in the thought that I am still me. It can be so easy to jump back and forth between the old you and the new you. But that is exactly what we are supposed to do, is to step into the new identity that Christ has given. Yes, we are still sinners, but we fight against the enemy and we walk in the freedom God has given. Join us today as we continue to dive into the topic of "Who Are You?"

Who You Are, Is Not Who You Were - 2023/09/10

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Sep 2023 09:24:43 +0000

Todays message is specifically for those who have accepted Christ into their lives. That is not to say that if you have not made this decision that you should turn away from this message. It simply means the target will be geared more specifically. Today Pastor talks about our lives being changed when we accept Christ. We have become a New Creation, and should act as such. You are not your past. Join us today as we talk about our identity in Christ.

Who Are You? - 2023/09/03

Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Sep 2023 09:22:05 +0000

Who are you? You are much more than your name, what you do for a living, how many children you have, what nationality you are. You are God's workmanship, you were fearfully and wonderfully made, you are who God says you are! In this series we will look at Who God is, Who we are, and what we were created for.

What is Truth? - 2023/08/27

Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Aug 2023 09:29:55 +0000

This past week, there was news about India landing on the moon. There are two groups of people who are discussing this event. Those who say it happened, and those who say it did not happen. Who is right? How often do we do this? How often do we see society do this? Something happens or there is a specific topic that people don't like, and we either choose to ignore it or embrace it. We pick things apart, choosing the aspects we like and dislike. Today we talk about how this can be true in Christianity. Please join us today as Pastor Rob dives deep into "what is truth?"

What's Your Outlook? - 2023/08/20

Rob Hastings — Sun, 20 Aug 2023 09:24:57 +0000

Our outlook on life will affect how we live. So, what is my outlook? How do I view God? How do I view my relationship with God? If we have a good outlook of God, it will drastically change how we live our lives. Join us today as we dive into scripture and take a step back to assess what our outlook is on life.

Where is His presence? - 2023/08/13

Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Aug 2023 09:25:15 +0000

Omnipresent - present everywhere at the same time. This is one of Gods many definitions. His presence goes before us, it is all around us, all of the time. So, why don't we see it? Often we go through seasons, sometimes it happens daily where we questions where God is and why we don't feel Him or see Him in our lives. Today we dissect this concept of being "far from God" and look at what is really happening during these seasons. Please join us today as we look at the presence of God.

His Manifest Presence - 2023/08/06

Rob Hastings — Sun, 06 Aug 2023 09:26:10 +0000

The presence of God is all around us. It doesn't go away, but often we can get into a mindset that it does. Today we dive into scripture and really look at what it means to be in the presence of God. He is omnipresent, always with us, always present, so lets expect that He is here.

Where We Go Wrong - 2023/07/30

Rob Hastings — Sun, 30 Jul 2023 09:26:31 +0000

As Christians, it is so important for us to learn how to not drift with culture. We see in times today that things are constantly changing, and people go with the flow into the next "big thing". We are called to stand out from this though. We are called to be lights in the darkness, and that means we will look different. Join us as we dive into scripture and see what it means to live as Christ called us to.

The Church - 2023/07/23

Rob Hastings — Sun, 23 Jul 2023 09:26:07 +0000

What is church? Is it a building, a place, a people, a community? The answer is yes. The church is everything, it is the people, the place, the community. The church is us, Christ is living inside of us as a body. Today we look at Paul and what the church looked like in the early stages, we also hit topics such as being hurt by a church, what to do in those situations, and also the importance of being in a church family and why we are called to break Bread together.

Seeing Miracles Every Day - 2023/07/16

Rob Hastings — Sun, 16 Jul 2023 09:29:00 +0000

There are many how to books, how to fix a fence, how to cook lasagna, and how to see miracles happen. We live in a day where it can be easy to miss the miracles of God. Life is so fast paced, we are constantly moving, and often we don't think that small things could be miracles. Today we dive into so many different passages that talk about the miracles of God, ones you may have never even read before. Take time today to look around you, what miracles has God been performing in your life and all around you.

Desperate For His Presence

Eric Jensen — Mon, 10 Jul 2023 00:40:00 +0000

Guest Speaker Pastor Eric Jensen from Pulaski Wisconsin preaches today about the presence of God. We often take the presence of God for granted, we become comfortable with it and perhaps don't appreciate it enough. Pastor Eric talks today how we need to switch the mindset, we need to crave the presence of God, we need be desperate for it. Today we take time to do just that. What will you take time to do today? Will you take the time to be desperate for His presence?

Stand Beside Her - 2023/07/02

Rob Hastings — Sun, 02 Jul 2023 09:26:37 +0000

God bless America, land that I love... Stand beside her and guide her... Our founding fathers based this country on God. Our one and true foundation. Since the birth of this nation, that seems to have faded. But it does not have to. We dive into a lot of different scripture about how God is our guide and our foundation. We take time today to honor our country, and remember exactly who is guiding us. Happy 4th of July!

Be on watch - 2023/06/25

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Jun 2023 09:26:47 +0000

As Christians living in a fallen world, we need to be sure we are on guard. Watching what is happening around us, the teachings that are being delivered. We also must stand firm in our faith; don't be moved. Christ says that being a follower of Him will not be easy, there will be hardship and attacks from the enemy, But when we stand firm in Him, He will uphold us. Join us in our final weeks of our study of First Corinthians.

Be the Man - 2023/06/18

Rob Hastings — Sun, 18 Jun 2023 09:33:14 +0000

In this day and age we hear a lot about what a man is and what a man isn't. As a Christian, sometimes it is hard knowing what we should and should not listen to. Today we take apart a lot of scripture and look at what God says a man should be. Let's dive into our study of Who men should resemble.

Listen to the Abigails - 2023/06/11

Rob Hastings — Sun, 11 Jun 2023 09:28:16 +0000

In 1st Samuel chapter 25, David meets a man named Nabal, a wealthy, and cocky man. Things quickly go south between the two men, and we read about David vowing to kill Nabal and everyone in his home. His wife Abigail quickly intercedes, and speaks truth and wisdom to David, who ceases... Sometimes we approach things and take big steps in our lives, but they are not the right ones. God places Abigails in our lives as a voice of truth and reason. Do you have someone in your life and will you listen to them when the time comes? Join us as we dive into chapter 25 of 1st Samuel.

Donkey Mission - 2023/06/04

Mickey Hall — Sun, 04 Jun 2023 09:26:20 +0000

Today we here from Mickey Hall as he wraps up his series on the 'Donkey Mission'. We hear about Saul and what God had in mind for him and for the Israelites. Join us today as we dive into 1 Samuel 10!

Do you hear His call? - 2023/05/28

Mickey Hall — Sun, 28 May 2023 09:27:04 +0000

When it comes time for Saul to be king, he is no where to be found. When they find him. he is hiding among the baggage. Some king of Israel, right? Often times we are afraid of the things God is calling us to. We feel unequipped, not ready, and we can feel the urge to hide ourselves. When God calls us to something, we have to trust that He knows what He is doing. Will it all go to plan? No, but we can trust in the calling that God places over us. Join us as we dive into the story of Saul and what God had in mind for Israel.

1 Corinthians 16 - 2023/05/21

Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 May 2023 09:28:54 +0000

Today we will be diving into chapter 16 of First Corinthians. Paul writes to the church in Corinth with many directions along with encouragements, join us as we unpack it today.

Where do we go when we die? - 2023/05/14

Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 May 2023 09:24:03 +0000

As human beings, it is very normal to wonder where we go when we die. We ask questions like is there an afterlife or is this it? It feels normal to question what's next. Today we dive into 1 Corinthians 15 and what Paul says about salvation, about death, and about resurrection. We want to always remember that our time on earth is short, but that there is eternity in Heaven with our Creator, and we want to be sure the people around us know the same thing. Join us as we dive into this study today!

Knowing the Gospel - 2023/05/07

Rob Hastings — Sun, 07 May 2023 09:28:28 +0000

Who is Jesus? What is the story of the gospel? These questions probably seem easy to answer as a believer, but are we answering them correctly? Our longing and desire should be to know and understand the gospel, who Christ is. We want to know so we can then make Him known. It's not just about inviting people to church, but it is about us showing them and helping them understand who God is, what He has for them. So let's dive into 1 Corinthians 15 and really know what Salvation is.

Women in Ministry - 2023/04/30

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 30 Apr 2023 09:26:39 +0000

Today we tackle one topic from 1 Corinthians 14, women in ministry. When looking at these hard hitting topics it is hard to not look at society and what the world approves or disapproves of. But as believers, we want to go back to the source of what the Word says about everything, the truth. Join us today as we dive into 1 Corinthians!

He has you in His Hands - 2023/04/23

Mickey Hall — Sun, 23 Apr 2023 09:27:32 +0000

Have you ever been doing something and thought "This is pointless"? Sometimes we go through life wondering why God has where we are, wondering what is going to come, and does this matter. Today we dive into different scripture and we look at 5 people in the Bible that God used in big ways, but they never had their names mentioned. God has you where He wants you, although you may not see it, He will use you in the best way for His plan. Join us as we look at how God used these people in mighty ways.

Intro to Spiritual Gifts - 2023/03/12

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Mar 2023 09:27:45 +0000

Today we continue our series in 1 Corinthians. We take a look at Chapter 12 and what Paul has to say about Spiritual Gifts. As we dive into deep scripture, let's keep our hearts open to hear from the Lord about the gifts He has placed in our lives.

YWAM Sharing - 2023/03/05

Madelyn Hastings — Sun, 05 Mar 2023 09:27:10 +0000

Today we hear from Madelyn Hastings as she shares about her 5 months abroad with YWAM. God continues to move all throughout the world, from Sweden to Singapore to Malaysia. Jesus gave the Great Commission to all of His disciples; so, how is He speaking to you? Where is leading you to minister?

Fix Your Eyes - 2023/02/26

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 26 Feb 2023 09:29:28 +0000

What are we fixing our eyes on today? Is it the news? Is it the chaos we see in the world? There is constantly something grabbing our attention, pulling us away from Christ. Today we look at John 16:33, we can see that Jesus reassured us that although we face trails in this world, we should take heart because He has already overcome the world. So, let us not fix our eyes on what we see around, but let us fix our eyes on Jesus Christ.

Do It For God's Glory - 2023/02/19

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 19 Feb 2023 09:31:45 +0000

Do we live for ourselves? Is This life about me? How can my life bring God glory? 1 Corinthians 10:31 tells us to "do everything for the glory of God" Can my work bring him glory? My family life? my entertainment choices?

Focus, Discipline, Watch Yourself, You Can Do It! - 2023/02/12

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Feb 2023 09:28:27 +0000

The children of Israel watched miracle after miracle in the wilderness. They saw God overcome Pharoah, part the red Sea, kill the Egyptians behind them. They ate manna that appeared out of nowhere, drank water from a rock. Got directions from a cloud and a pillar of fire, yet "With most of them God was not pleased" 1 Corinthians 10:5. We can grow accustomed to the presence, provision and purposes of God and begin to live for ourselves and ignore the Lord. 1 Corinthians 10 gives us insight and direction how to live in response to that.

You May Be Right, But It Might Be Wrong - 2023/02/05

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Feb 2023 09:30:24 +0000

How can you be right and be wrong at the same time? 1 Corinthians 8:1-13 gives instructions about whether it is okay to eat meat sacrificed to Idols. We don't have that issue in today's society, but there are many issues in the church where we could apply the same principle. My right does not trump my responsibility to serve God by preferring and serving you. Although some activities may be acceptable for me, if they cause a weaker brother or sister to stumble, for the love of God and the love of my brother or sister, I should give up my right and instead sacrifice for the sake of the kingdom.

You May Be Right, But It Might Be Wrong - 2023/01/29

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 29 Jan 2023 09:28:04 +0000

"Hearing and Responding" Dave Ogren - 2023/01/22

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Jan 2023 09:26:35 +0000

Many are the plans of a mans heart but God orders his steps. In life, we make many plans and often, without prayer nor consideration of the Lord and His will, execute those plans. Pastor Dave Ogren shares a message from Acts 15-16 about hearing Gods voice and responding to the Holy Spirit when He calls or leads us.

Serving God Where You're At- 2023/01/15

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Jan 2023 09:25:59 +0000

God loves you...just the way you are! Although it sounds like a love song, it is true. God loved you even before you responded to His invitation to salvation. And you can serve him right where you are. Whatever station of life you are in, begin to serve him now. You don't have to wait. Serve Him now, and continue to grow.

Singleness, Sex, Marriage, and Divorce - 2023/01/08

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Jan 2023 09:33:34 +0000

I Corinthians 7 gives some of the most straightforward and practical instruction on Marriage and Divorce and God's design for sex. God designed marriage to be one of giving, not of selfishness. He Designed us humans to be connected together in the most sacred of bonds through marriage making marriage stronger through sex. Because this bond is so strong, divorce not only breaks this bond but causes damage on every one involved. Yes, there is grace for those who have been divorced, yes there are concessions, but God's design is for marriage to be between one man and one woman for a lifetime, and that sexual relations should be enjoyed often and freely between husband and wife.

Glorify God In Your Body 2023/01/01

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 01 Jan 2023 09:30:22 +0000

All Things all lawful but not all things are beneficial. Sometimes believers ask the wrong question. Is it lawful to smoke, to drink? How far can I go? A more appropriate question is "would this behavior/action be beneficial? Todays New Years message addresses being holy, pleasing and living a life that is beneficial.

The Hope of Christmas - 2022/12/18

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 18 Dec 2022 09:27:15 +0000

The four weeks leading up to Christmas is Advent, which means coming. During these 4 weeks we will be discovering the Hope that is found in Christ, The Love God has for the world, the Joy that the "advent" of Christ elicits and the peace that a relationship with Christ offers.

The Hope of Christmas - 2022/12/04

Thanks Shalat - 2022/11/20

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 20 Nov 2022 09:23:51 +0000

In Ecclesiastes Solomon says "There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them." How can we enjoy what we have? According to the scriptures, as we learn to become thankful, God gives us the power to enjoy what He has blessed us with. Learning to see and appreciate what we have is a great gift and causes great rewards. In today's sermon Pastor Rob talks about how as we learn to be thankful we actually begin to find more joy in what God has blessed us with.

Such Were Some of You 1 Cor 6:9-11 - 2022/11/13

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Nov 2022 09:25:33 +0000

We are all sinners. It's a statement we hear often as Christians. We hear it when someone tries to help us feel better after we have messed up. We hear it when someone is trying to excuse their own errors and shortcomings. It sounds biblical, but is it? It is true that "All have sinned and fall short of the kingdom of God" and "None is righteous, no not one". But what about the idea that we "ARE all SINNERS?" In 1 Cor 6:9, Paul lists numerous groups of sinners, idolaters, swindlers, thieves, drunkards and declares that "the unrighteous will not enter the Kingdom of God". in verse 11, he makes a huge statement. After listing off a number of groups of people who practice immoral, sinful behavior, Paul says "and such were some of you". Wait! what? Such WERE some of you? He goes on to say you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified. We no longer identify with these behaviors, we should no longer "practice" such behavior, because Christ did a work, He justified us. He santified us. He redeemed us. How can you continue to live practicing behavior that He sacrificed himself for in order to set us free?

Lawful But Not Helpful1 Cor 6:12 - 2022/11/06

Mickey Hall — Sun, 06 Nov 2022 09:28:41 +0000

The apostle Paul, full of understanding that Christ has set us free, that salvation is by grace, that our sins our washed clean, that "through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death" addresses the Corinthian church. You are free, but just because all things are "lawful" not everything is beneficial, nor helpful, nor expedient. As believers, we should have a close relationship with the Lord, a close relationship with the Holy Spirit so we can hear His voice. We should ask questions such as "Lord, is this something you would have me do?" Mickey Hall talks about the wonders of the human body, the majesty by which we were created and brings us to question whether certain activities, behaviors, beliefs are helpful to us.

For The Sake of The Kingdom 1 Cor 6:1-9 - 2022/10/30

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 30 Oct 2022 09:26:55 +0000

Is it possible that today's society is not much different than that of ancient Corinth? Perhaps our humanness, doesn't progress much after all. Paul writes to the Corinthian church that one believer should not take a dispute before the "unrighteous" court but instead should look to other believers to help settle disputes. In saying "unrighteous", Paul is not saying that they are wicked in a moral sense, but pointing out that those in the courts in Corinth were unsaved. Why take a matter between Christians and have it judged by non-Christians? How does the world look at "the church" if we cannot get along and handle our own disputes? Paul comes against this idea with a harsh statement. "How Dare You". Why not rather suffer wrong? This kind of thinking is contrary to the ""do what's right for you" "get ahead" "stand up for your rights" mentality that is so prevalent. Paul is not telling us to "be the victim" but instead calling believers to yield to the spirit, and yield in faith and trust to Him, It is also a call for leaders to lead well, to be strong, be fair, to not be swayed by popularity, fear, possible financial gain. We are called to stand up for righteousness and be willing to humble ourselves and not demand "our rights" but instead keep the kingdom of God as our first priority.

1 Corinthians - Live The True Gospel - 2022/09/25

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Sep 2022 09:27:58 +0000

The gospel of Jesus Christ is foolishness to those that have not trusted in Jesus as their Lord and Savior. A king coming to die a criminals death is not what we think of when we think of a story with a hero, a savior. But God sent His son Jesus to this world to pay a brutal price for a debt that was not his, that we might be set free to live a life that we do not deserve. Jesus is the hero, our wisdom, world wisdom falls so short. The wisdom of God seems like foolishness.

We are called servants, farmers, fellow workers and builders...we are the church! God calls us to serve, work, build and He calls us to do it together.

1 Corinthians - Growing or still a baby?- 2022/08/21

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 21 Aug 2022 09:32:14 +0000

God calls us to grow, not to remain. Living things grow, growing things change. God does not call the believer to be perfect, but He calls us to growth. He doesn't want you to be "THE BEST" but He does want you to do your best, give it your all. Keep growing, don't get stuck in Kindergarten.

1 Corinthians - Spiritual or Natural - 2022/08/14

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Aug 2022 09:26:22 +0000

The moment a believer comes to Jesus, He/she is born again. The Spirit of God begins to live inside of them. We have to yield to the Spirit who lives inside of us. We can become more spiritual, listen more closely, hear His voice more clearly. As we grow, as we pray, as we worship, we begin to know His voice better. We can begin to rely on the spirit not on the natural wisdom of this world to lead us, to help us make decisions.

1 Corinthians - The Body of Christ in an anti-Christian Culture - 2022/07/24

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 24 Jul 2022 09:27:52 +0000

Even From The early church, there have been Divisions. Let us put aside differences, see eachother through Christ's eyes, and make for unity.

1 Corinthians - The Body of Christ in an anti-Christian Culture - 2022/07/17

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Jul 2022 09:24:49 +0000

We are beginning a series through the book of 1 Corinthians. This church planted by the apostle Paul was in one of the largest wealthiest cities in the Roman Empire. Full of teachings and lifestyles influenced by worship of Greek and Roman Gods, full of immorality. In this atmosphere the church of Corinth found itself being influenced by these ungodly practices. Paul writes this letter to correct, admonish and teach these believers how they should be living through the lens of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

What's the difference between fruit of the spirit and gifts of the spirit? Does healing still happen? Are miracles for today? What is prophecy? What is the gift of tongues. We will try to answer these questions in this sermon

Holy Spirit

Rob Hastings — Sun, 12 Jun 2022 09:31:58 +0000

The Holy Spirit may be the most overlooked and least understood part of the God Head. Jesus commanded us to wait until we were filled with power when the Holy Spirit came upon us. The Holy Spirit is God's gift for us to live a bold, godly life in power.

Palm Sunday - Above and Beyond - 2022/04/10

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Apr 2022 09:27:45 +0000

Sometimes we want something, sometimes we think we know what's best for us and what we really need. God has an awesome way of blowing our minds, of helping us to see that what we think we need is so far below what He wants to do. He wants to do Above and Beyond what think.

First Things First - Pastor Rob Hastings - 2022/04/03

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Apr 2022 09:26:09 +0000

Why do we seem to struggle so much in this life? Could it be that we have our priorities all mixed up? The principle of First Things First is a life-changing principle, it is made even more powerful when we understand that our FIRST priority should be loving God and Putting God absolutely FIRST. He is our First Thing. If we seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto us as well.

Mark Chapter 11- You Are Accepted, You Are Loved

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Mar 2022 09:41:41 +0000

In Mark Chapter 11, Jesus cleanses the temple of those who are trying to profit, to make it difficult for people to come to God. Jesus makes a huge statement. NO MORE!

You Missed The Point - 2022/02/13

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 13 Feb 2022 09:25:27 +0000

In Mark chapter 7, Jesus has discourse with the Pharisees over ritual hand-washing. Jesus points out that they have overridden the intention of the law with man-made rules that totally miss the point. Jesus explains to them that it is not what enters a man that makes him defiled, but what comes out of him...out of his heart...that defile him. What is in your heart that is causing you to be unclean and defiled? Above all else, guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life. Proverbs 4:23

Comfort In The Storm - 2022/02/06

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 06 Feb 2022 09:23:52 +0000

In Mark chapter 6, the disciples are far from shore, Jesus has been on the mountainside by himself praying...until 3am! The disciples have been struggling in the storm, worrying and fearful...while Jesus prayed for them. Mark says that Jesus intended to walk by them. He didn't stop until they cried out. Watch this sermon to find out why.

Book of Mark - All You Sinners, follow me! - 2021/09/19

He appointed twelve that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach. Who were these 12? What about the 70, the 120 the 5,000? In today's message we learn a little bit about who Jesus' disciples were...Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous but sinners.

Jesus chose 12 of his disciples to become the apostles. The apostles were taught by Jesus and sent out to teach, heal, cast out demons and make disciples. Through these 12 men the gospel was established and the church was born. These men were responsible for the New testament and nearly all information we have regarding the life and teachings of Christ.

In Mark chapter 2 we see the account of the 4 men bringing their paralytic friend to Jesus. Their faith and courage is an example to us as we see these 4 "HELPERS" bringing their "HELPLESS" friend to the "HEALER". Regardless of the "HINDRANCES" the helpless man finds more than he is looking for. More, and better, than a physical healing, he finds forgiveness of sins. Can we increase our faith and gain the courage to HELP our HELPLESS friends, family and neighbors find the HEALER?

Declarations precede The Battles

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 09:26:50 +0000

In This message, we learn some of the history of the birth of the nation of the United States. We learn that the 4th of July is the celebration of the declaration of Independence. The Revolutionary War did not end in 1776, but primarily began. Likewise, as believers, when we are saved, we make a declaration that we will follow Jesus, that we are separating ourselves from the power of the enemy. Although the declaration is made, the enemy continues to fight against us and our decision to follow Christ. We need to keep battling the enemy wearing the armor of God.

FOCUS On Our Mission

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 27 Jun 2021 09:38:15 +0000

Do you ever worry about tomorrow? Does anything in life cause you anxiety? Do you need Clarity? If we focus on the wrong things, our life tends to be so much more difficult, but when we focus on the right things, on the good things, we are able to walk more freely, overcome more quickly, have more victory and have more joy.

God works on our behalf, but He also works through us. He does miracles around us, but He also does miracles through us. He calls us to stand still and see the salvation of the LORD, and He also says, Go, fight, march, sing, blow the trumpet, wash, tell and more. Sometimes He calls us to action, sometimes to waiting, trusting and stillness.

Stephen Lemelle shares about his life journey, bad decisions, actions and tragedies. In All things, he discovered what Romans 8:28 says is true...God will work all things for the good for those who love Him and are called according to His purposes.

Virtues #5 - Self-Control

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Feb 2021 19:12:35 +0000

Galatians 5:22 gives a list of attributes that should be the fruit of a believer's life. Among the list is Self Control. The Spirit of God who lives in us gives us the power, the ability to control ourselves, our flesh. Believers should be the most self-controlled people on Earth. All of the virtues we have discussed so far will also help us in all of our relationships.

What the world is lacking is a people who have virtues. Many people claim to have values, but values change. One persons values differ from another. Virtue on the other hand is solid. The world is changing, God's people need to be solid, living by the virtues set forth in the word of God.

Benefits of Gratitude

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Nov 2020 17:27:07 +0000

Psalm 136 says "Give Thanks to the Lord, His Love Endures forever." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says "...give thanks in all circumstances for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus" Why are there 7 major words for praise and thanksgiving in the Bible? Why are there more than 140 mentions of the word thanks in His word? God knows both how important and beneficial gratitude is for us. Today we take a deeper look at the benefits of gratitude.

Habits of Highly Effective Christians

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Nov 2020 17:35:40 +0000

Jesus calls his followers to make disciples, to walk in the spirit, to walk in power and more...in short, Jesus desires that His followers are effective. What makes A Christian effective. Abiding in Christ, prayer, reading and obeying the word, Being filled with the Spirit, living in community with other believers, humility and more. This series will delve into some of the habits that help make Christians effective in their lives.

Be Filled With The Spirit

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 08 Nov 2020 17:32:19 +0000

In Ezekiel chapter 37 God told Ezekiel to prophecy to the wind so that breath would enter the dry bones. The Spirit of God is needed in every believer to bring life back to our dry bones.

God Is Always With Us

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 14 Oct 2018 23:17:00 +0000

God is always with us, even when we as believers are chasing sin, rebelling and fleeing from God, discouraged, and ready to give up. God does not flee from our sin. He hates our sins but continues to love us, the sinner. Wherever we go, we carry the blessings and presence of God. Build monuments of God's faithfulness in our lives.

Father, Forgive Them

Tony Cervero — Mon, 08 Oct 2018 00:15:00 +0000

The cross shows God at His best and humanity at its worst. Grace makes God personal where we need it most. We cannot lift ourselves out of the pit of sin but thanks be to God who stooped down to our level and provided a way of escape. There is not a day in our lives that we do not need God's grace. We are called to dispense grace.

Ephesians #15

What you fear is what you serve

We are not created to live in fear. God has given us a spirit of power, love and a sound mind. Fear must be bound in our lives. God can't do much in our lives when we are bound by fear. Because you have no power over a thing does not mean the battle is lost – It means that the battle is the Lord's.

Ephesians #14

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 16 Sep 2018 19:42:00 +0000

Ephesians #13

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 09 Sep 2018 19:24:00 +0000

We are habitual beings. In Christ we need to put off the bad habits and put on new habits. In verses 25 - 29, Paul tells a bad habit to put off, a new habit to put on, and the reason why. We are not to grieve the Holy Spirit with lies, anger, stealing, and rotten speech. We are to be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another.

Ephesians #12

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 02 Sep 2018 19:32:00 +0000

The unsaved have a futile walk, darkened understanding, alienated from the life of God, and a hardening of their hearts. Those who KNOW God are to put off the old man (manner of life), put on the new man, and be renewed in the spirit of their mind.

Your Story Matters

Ron Radachy — Sun, 26 Aug 2018 21:04:00 +0000

Dismiss Your Crowds

David Ogren — Sun, 24 Jun 2018 19:50:31 +0000

Dismiss the crowd of busyness that is taking God's place in our lives. Do what you do because you love God. God is pouring His love into our lives. The trap of busyness distracts us, deafens us to God's voice. More often we need to just be quiet a while and listen and know that He is God.

Spiritual Growth Part 4

Rob Hastings — Sun, 20 May 2012 00:00:00 +0000

A couple of weeks ago the President of the United States of America made a public statement regarding his stance on a moral issue based on scripture. The problem was that the scripture was miss represented. As we move forward into the future it will be harder and harder to know when things like this happen and we will be susceptible to accepting these views unless we move forward in our spiritual growth and have a better understanding of the Gospel and the meta-narrative of God in His written Word. Join us as Pastor Rob presents a strong case for standing on the truth found in scripture. Additional Scriptures Referenced: Romans 3:23 & 10:9&10 / 1John 1:9 / John 15:18-27 /

Prayer and Fasting

Rob Hastings — Sun, 25 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0000

Join us today as Pastor Rob brings to us a challenging topic that is rarely preached on and thus rarely practiced even among the body of Christ today.

There are 74 separate references to fasting in the Bible. AND, there's actually more teaching in the New Testament on fasting than there is on repentance and confession. It's primary purpose of fasting is to strengthen one's reliance on Christ. Additional Scriptures Referenced:

Deep Relationships & the Issue of Prayer Part 1

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0000

Realizing from a biblical worldview that the nature of man is sinful and broken from the very beginning, how do we become whole again? Not only are we birthed in sin (Psalm 51:5) and into sinfulness, but after we are born the enemy of our souls begins his relentless attacks for the purpose of destroying that which looks like or has the ability to know and please GOD! His woundings leave us quite in need of a Savior and when we do come to Jesus and surrender to Him our hearts, we may still be quite broken, wounded, and bleeding. How do we come to “wholeness”? Additional Scriptures Referenced: Acts 13:22 / Matthew 17:1-5 / Mark 9:2-9 / Luke 9:28 / 1 John 3:16, 18, 23; 4:7-8, 11, 19-21

Sanctity of Human Life Sunday

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000

This morning we take a look at Biblical Worldview for
Sanctity of Human Life Sunday 2012
The 39th anniversary of Roe v. Wade decision in the US Supreme Court making abortion legal.
Presented here is a consistent and cohesive Biblical worldview:
We believe that God exists (Heb. 11:6) and that He is the standard by which we measure everything else. God created everything that exists (Gen.1:1) and everything is held together by Him (Col. 1:17). We believe the Bible is God’s divinely inspired Word, revealed to mankind (2 Tim. 3:16). We believe that the fullness of God came to earth and lived in the human body of Jesus Christ of Nazareth 2,000 years ago (Col. 1:19). We believe that mankind chose to rebel against God in the Garden of Eden and because of that act of rebellion, sin and death entered the world (Rom. 5:12-14). We believe that believing in (John 3:15-19, 5:24), and obeying (Luke 8:21, John 3:20, John 14:21, 23-24), Jesus Christ is the only way to have eternal life or to be reunited with God (Acts 4:10-12).

JOY

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 11 Dec 2011 00:00:00 +0000

It wasn't the rich and famous who came to worship Jesus that first Christmas Eve, but shepherds. God reminds us that, "as you have done it to the least of these, you have done it to me." He invites us, as his children, the "poor in Spirit," to come into His presence and worship Him.
250 years ago, Isaac Watts wrote a hymn based on the truths found in Psalm 98. The name of this world-famous hymn is “Joy to the World.” At Christmas it is sung all across the world by millions of Christians and non-Christians alike. But a close study of the words of this hymn reveals that Watts did not have in mind the Bethlehem coming of Christ, but rather the millennial coming of our Lord.

PEACE

Rob Hastings — Sun, 04 Dec 2011 00:00:00 +0000

Today Pastor Rob shares with us the importance of knowing the "meta-narrative" of the Bible to better understand that the Christmas Story is more than just a Story. This week's Advent message is based on the Bethlehem Candle which represents peace. Knowing the "meta-narrative" makes this week's message of peace come alive. Join us and be encouraged to know that the peace that comes from knowing our Lord is as prevalent today as it was when the shepherds were presented with the revelation that the promised messiah was born, singing, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”

WAIT

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Aug 2011 01:00:00 +0000

Today Pastor Rob shows us that the Bible teaches and shows in vast quantities, methods the great faithfulness of God. It is because of God’s faithfulness and His “inability” to lie (Titus 1:2), that we can expect many things from God. We can hold God true to all of His promises toward us, and there are many many promises to us from God. Much of what we can expect from/through God is based solely on Him, His love for us, His faithfulness, His sovereignty. Other things we can expect from God come with conditions. Stipulations based on whether or not we fulfill “our side” of the agreement.

The Best Cure for Immaturity

Rob Hastings — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 01:00:00 +0000

Where are you in your Christianity? Compare it to a student’s education; are you still pre-school, kindergarten, high school, college, beyond? How about in comparison to the food you ate when you were a baby as to what you eat currently? The point is that the longer we live out our lives the more we mature in the natural progression of our lives. This is not to say that we don’t have any control over how we mature in life. It’s quite the contrary, actually. We need to challenge ourselves to grow in the things of the Lord so that we will be able to rightly apply the word to our daily lives. In the next message in our series on Hebrews Pastor Rob challenges all of us to identify, move forward and take the next step in our Christian maturity as we apply the Word of God into our daily lives.

Advent Week 2 - FAITH

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 05 Dec 2010 01:00:00 +0000

In our second week of Advent Pastor Jeff offers us a perspective on the Bethlehem Candle. The wise men that came from the east went out on faith believing that the star would pin point where the coming Messiah would be born. And from what is recorded in scripture we know that their faith proved true to the promises of scripture. Join us as we are encouraged to “step up” our faith this Christmas season and have faith in what the Word says not faith in our own faith…  Additional Scripture References: Romans 5:8 / .Sermon's notes and/or the Lighthouse facilitation guide is available from the message for you to follow along with in either your personal study time or in facilitating a cell group.

Advent Week 1 - HOPE

Rob Hastings — Sun, 28 Nov 2010 01:00:00 +0000

With Thanksgiving in our past we now turn our hearts and minds to the season of Advent (the first four weeks leading up to Christmas). Each week we focus on a topic that relates to the first coming of Jesus Christ; our Savior and Messiah. This in essence, is the meaning of Advent – the first coming of Jesus Christ. However, we don’t want to forget that He said that he was coming again. On this first week of Advent Pastor Rob brings us the message of hope. That is; the hope of his first coming, as it related to the people of the New Testament, as well as the promised second coming (the second Advent). Join us as we are encouraged to see the hope that we have in Jesus Christ both for the present and the future. Additional Scripture References: John 14:2&3 / Acts 1:10&11 / Romans 13:12-14 / 1Timothy 4:13 / Titus 2:13&14 .Sermon's notes and/or the Lighthouse facilitation guide is available from the message for you to follow along with in either your personal study time or in facilitating a cell group.

Right Perspectives

Rob Hastings — Sun, 31 Oct 2010 01:00:00 +0000

What is your perspective on life? This morning Pastor Rob shares with us from his heart about having the right perspective. With everything in life, there are different perspectives. Perspectives are formed from individual points of view, much like 4 different people standing on each corner of an intersection describing an accident. Each person has a different view of the accident scene. But perspective, which literally means “through the view” is formed as much from the inner man as the physical world it is looking at. Perspective becomes perspective when what is scene is processed and filtered through our mind, which is made up of our knowledge, experiences, fears, our hopes, our worries and so on. Our perspective is not made up only from what truly exists, but exists from the multiple filters we have in our life. Additional Scripture references: Rev 20:14-15 / I Thess. 5:2-3 & 9-11 / Eph 5:8 / 1 Peter 2:9-10 / 1 Cor. 6:19-20 / Col 3:1-4 / Acts 1:10-11 / Matt 24:27, 30-31 & 37-44 / 2 Peter 3:10 / Dan 2:44-45 / Rev 2:11 & 7:16-17 / John 14:2-4 / .Sermon's notes and/or the Lighthouse facilitation guide is available from the message for you to follow along with in either your personal study time or in facilitating a cell group.

You Are Not Far From the Kingdom

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 10 Oct 2010 01:00:00 +0000

What is th most important thing? this morning Pastor Jeff shows us that complex religion and devotion based upon man's "ideas about" God does not lead to intimacy with HIM. Simple faith is placed in Jesus Christ we can legitimately build the superstructure of doctrine as a safe platform on which to live out the relationship we have with our Creator. Then we will know what the important things are.

Resurrection Life

Rob Hastings — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 01:00:00 +0000

Traditions

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 26 Sep 2010 01:00:00 +0000

Misunderstood

Pastor Rob Hastings — Tue, 14 Sep 2010 01:00:00 +0000

Tonight at IYG Ed shows us how Jesus was misunderstood by the Scribes, Pharisees and Sadducees of His day. Without these misunderstandings Jesus probably wouldn't have been crucified. However, because of this he fulfilled prophesy and now makes us righteous because of these misunderstandings that put Him on the cross for us. Because of his death, burial and resurrection we now have access to the God the Father for those that believe. As the surfers used to say, “This is totally righteous, dude!” RIGHT? RIGHT! We are made RIGHT! RIGHT? RIGHT!

Who Is In Your Oikos?

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 01:00:00 +0000
We all have a circle of influence; a number of people that we work with, are family and/or friends, that we can get together with whenever we need. But is there a purpose for this unit beyond what the secular world has led us to believe? We have a way of looking at things, a paradigm, that is limited by what is surrounding us. Sometimes we need a paradigm shift, a different point of view, to get us out a pattern that can be destructive to our nature and hindering to . Join us as Pastor Jeff challenges us to see things from a different perspective by utilizing our “oikos” to do build the Kingdom of God.

Shapping A Belief System

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 01:00:00 +0000
We all have a belief system by which we live our life. This system can change over time by our experiences, by the expressed thoughts of those we hold in high esteem or even by the values that we hold as truth only as it applies to our own life. But how do we shape it to be in line with the inherent Word of God? The answer may seem elementary but in reality it takes a life time to achieve. Join us for Sanctity of Human Life Sunday as Pastor Jeff helps us to understand the stark reality of how our values and system of belief can shape a generation and affect those who haven't even been born yet.

Not Made For The Mountain Tops

Rob Hastings — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 01:00:00 +0000
In a microwave world where it seems like everything is handed to us as quickly as we could want it, sometimes we can find ourselves wanting our faith to grow just as quickly. We can tend to expect to go from sinner to being fully discipled in an instant. However, true maturity and growth comes with consistently or a pace set by the individual that challenges him or her to gradually grow. Join with us as Pastor Rob shares with us practical ways to help us grow in our faith.

Filling The Empty Heart

Pastor Rob Hastings — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 01:00:00 +0000
Every day the world tells us what we need to be happy in life. Without the Word of God as our filter it's easy for someone to believe that we need these things to be happy. Though we may be unaware of our reliance on martial things; it becomes obvious when, over time, we find ourselves in the same place we were in our relationship with Christ as we were years ago. Our relationship with our creator needs to keep maturing which usually means we need to get rid of our desires for worldly possessions. Join us as Ed shows us or desperate need to be fulfilled and how it can be achieved by setting our hearts on things above rather than things below. Ed also uses an illustration by a student named Ryan Shook who created a short video on this subject. Additional Scriptures: Colossians 3:2 / James 1:21 / Psalm 86;11, 12

Every Home a Lighthouse-Mother's Day Weekend

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 10 May 2009 01:00:00 +0000
The simplest, repetitive act of devotion to a cause will conduct a person, or people, toward a heart & mindset of continuance and faithfulness to that cause. In the same way, each of our homes must be, or become, a training center where simple and repetitive acts of devotion are conducted daily; Not just for political or national cause but for the cause of Christ and His Kingdom. This Mother's Day, join us as Pastor Jeff shows us how important a home structured and founded on the principles of Christ is.

Today we examine what happened on the road to Emmaus after Jesus had been crucified. What were the feelings of the disciples? What was going through their heads?

Abiding in Christ

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 15 Mar 2009 01:00:00 +0000
Some say confidence comes from experience. But what about people like Abraham, Moses and Joshua, to name a few? God chose these people to do things that they have never done before and they did it with such power and anointing. When people experienced God and they get direction from Him they move with confidence as if they had years of experience. Why? Join us today as Pastor Richard Murongi from Africa answers this question and brings us an encouraging word about remaining and dwelling in the presence of God.

Sold Out!

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 01:00:00 +0000
To be sold out to God is a lot bigger statement than what is seen at face value. It's not about a checklist but it's about a heart attitude that strives to have a passion to know Christ. A passion to die and let Christ live his life in us; to count all things as loss for the sake of Christ; to be a living sacrifice, a drink offering. The call to discipleship is a call to be sold out to being totally committed to Christ. It's without a doubt a radical commitment.
Join us as Pastor Mike challenges and encourages us to elevate our heart attitudes into being more “sold out” then ever before.

Community & Involvement: God Cares, Do I?

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 04 Jan 2009 01:00:00 +0000
Who are the poor? Who are the needy? What is our responsibility to them? Is community important? Though these may seem like simple questions, they have a few difficult answers for us. This weekend Pastor Jeff takes on the final tour of the Truth Project. Join us as we explore our Christian world view in these areas. Introduction from the Truth Project: For this final installment of our “worldview tour” we will head southeast and gaze upon the face of God as it is revealed to us in the last of our six social spheres: the sphere of Community and Involvement. Here, perhaps more than in any other sphere or field of inquiry, we will have an opportunity to draw near to the Creator and learn what it is that has compelled Him to draw near to us. We will find that the God of the Scriptures is in fact the Lord of the lonely, the Savior of the outcast, the Defender of the defenseless, and the Sustainer of all who find themselves in need. Our call is to become like Him by discovering what it means to not only love Him, but to love our neighbor.

MERRY/MARY CHRISTMAS!!!

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 01:00:00 +0000
This weekend is the weekend before Christmas. Traditionally we use the term “Merry Christmas” to great people during the holidays. Of course there is a minority, yes that's right a MINORITY that wishes to take out the term “Merry Christmas” and replace it with the term “Happy Holidays” because of the religious connotations behind it. Though this is ridiculous to most of us it nevertheless remains that these activists do more to change the term than we do to keep it. Those of us apposed to this new term try to make a difference by not shopping at stores that adopt this concept. And it works. Sometimes, however, we get so involved with this hustle and bustle of the holidays, and the political correctness that is moving in with such force, that we tend to forget to take time to reflect on the magnificence and significance of the season. This is our Savior. This is our God. Incarnate! What gifts do we have to bring Him this year? Do you ever ponder the scenes of the nativity? How about what Mary must have been going through: being someone around 12-16 years old. Growing up in economical crises and turmoil. Unable to control her economy. Unable to change her circumstances. Yet she rejoiced because she new that God was not out of control. She was a young lady who was obviously well versed in the scriptures because in the moment of overwhelming joy, she sings the Song of Mary in Luke2:46-55, which reflects the song that Hannah sang in 1Samuel 2:1-10. If you get a chance this Christmas season we strongly recommend you taking the time to watch the movie “The Nativity Story” with out any interruptions so that perhaps you get a different view of what is more than just a story.

Foundations & Fields

John 1:1-3; Proverbs 8:22-36; 1Corinthians 3:11; Jude 24-25 This week, as a precursor to this week's Truth Project, Pastor Jeff talks about the encroachment of secularism on our Christian Judeo beliefs as a nation. Some of the information shared may surprise you. There is a secular underlining work in the world today that wants to totally eradicate God from our history books. Revisionists will take out what they want and only teach what they believe you need to know. By doing so our youth today only gets a piece of where our great nation came from. Listen in to today's message and get a piece of the picture. We are called to be lights in the darkess of this age. With clips from Pastor Joel Johnston, who was taxed over $100K for giving out Bibles and other benevolent gifts, and a clip from this week's Truth Project, this will prove to be a message you won't want to miss. Additional scripture references in this week's Truth Project: Isaiah 33:22; Revelation 2:5; Romans 13:1-6; Hosea 13:6; Deuteronomy 8:10-20

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 01:00:00 +0000
Election day is almost here, and if you don't believe that America is the land of promise, just listen to some of the polotiians,: Promise, promise, Promise. A 4 year old tugged on her dad who had been watching politial ads, beggig him to stop and read her a fariy tale. Weary of seeing all these endless ads, he agreed and started reading the fairy tale, but she intrrupted him, looked up into his face and asked, "Daddy, do all fairy tales begin with: Once upon a time?" he responded, :"No sweetheart, most fairy tales begin with: 'And when I'm elected..." Sad But true... This week we take another break from our serries following the Truth Project and speak about how we, as childred of God, need to vote for the values and moral principles found in His Word.

Our Responsibility Towards the Election

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 26 Oct 2008 01:00:00 +0000
"Every Christian will vote one of three ways". Today we stray away from our series following the Truth Project to talk about the responsibility God has given us, as Christians, to influence and use our freedoms to the glory of God not only in our everyday lives but especially during this election season. Following a brief presentation from Gideon��"s International, Pastor Jeff will take us on this journey by relating this responsibility to the parable of the talents in Matthew 25. Additional scripture reference: 2John 7-11

What Is Man

Jeffry A Tunnell — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 01:00:00 +0000
Man, though created perfect, rebelled against God, is now fallen, his heart desperately wicked Vs. Man is basically good
Man needs divine grace, regeneration and redemption Vs. Man must save himself through self-oriented pursuits.
In our third message of our 13 part series on, following-or rather preceding- the Truth Project, Pastor Jeff talks about our humanity and what God thinks of us as his creation.

Phiosopy & Ethcs

Pastor Rob Hastings — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 01:00:00 +0000
"Do you really believe that what you believe is really real?" ~Dr. Del Tacket~ Part 2 of our series following the Truth Project Pastor Mike talks to us about the antithesis of world truth vs. Biblical Truth in the ways of Philosophy and Ethics of our culture. If we really believe what we believe is really real then we would live, act, think and behave differently. In this message we also study the differences of the secular & Biblical world truths. Only 63% of Christians today believe that Jesus lived a sinless life which means that 37% believe that Jesus sinned. That tells us that those 37% of Christians don't even believe what they believe. Also, only 58% even believe that Satan exists and only 3% will ever lead someone to Jesus. We need to up our understanding of what we believe and let Jesus transform our thinking so that we have a biblical value system. Additional Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 3:18 and Romans 12:1&2
