A sermon from the series “For Generations to Come.” For Generations to Come. This is the theme of our building campaign that kicks off this Sunday. For generations, those who came before us have faithfully created spaces for more people to know Christ. Now it’s our turn. This Sunday, we’ll see that while this campaign is about buildings, it’s first and foremost about the people God is building. Join us as we learn what it means to be living stones who are a part of the spiritual house God is making for his glory.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” We live in a world torn by conflict. According to the International Committee of the Red Cross, around 130 armed conflicts are being fought around the world today, including more than a dozen major wars. We see many of these conflicts unfolding before our eyes. But another kind of conflict often goes unnoticed—the battles being waged within our own hearts. No peace treaty or ceasefire agreement can end these inner battles. Only Jesus, our Savior and Prince of Peace, can quiet the turmoil within us and give us a peace that surpasses understanding.

Join us as we hear Gideon declare a profound truth about the character of God: He is Jehovah Shalom—the Lord is our peace.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Sometimes in life, we discover just how much we need God. Sometimes it happens when the doctor calls. Sometimes it happens when a marriage begins to crumble, when a child wanders away, when grief comes calling, or when a dream we prayed about for years suddenly falls apart. There are times when our hearts are wounded even when our bodies are healthy. In times like these, we can find ourselves asking, “God, where are You? Can You heal this?” The good news of Scripture is that God does not stand far from our suffering. And as He draws near, we hear Him declare, “I am Jehovah Rapha—I am your healer.”

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Have you ever felt overlooked, forgotten, or alone in your pain? Hagar knew that feeling. Vulnerable and discouraged, she fled into the wilderness—but there she was found by God. Join us as we encounter El Roi, “the God who sees me,” and discover the comfort of knowing that no matter what we face, we are never beyond His sight or His compassionate care.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Have you ever been impatient with God? Have you ever rushed ahead, charting your own course instead of following His lead? Have you ever struggled to trust in his timing and purposes? If so, you’re not alone. Some of the greatest heroes of faith have wrestled with these questions. This Sunday, we’ll explore Abraham’s story and encounter God as El Shaddai—God Almighty. Join us as we discover why God is always worth waiting for and is completely worthy of trust.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” We have been learning that the names by which God has chosen to reveal Himself in Scripture reveal aspects of His character. This week’s name is Jehovah Nissi—the LORD is my banner. What can we learn about God from that? Join us as we explore the significance of the name Jehovah Nissi and what it tells us about our God and our relationship with Him.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Among the more than 100 names and titles for God in the Bible, Jehovah Jireh is one of the most encouraging for believers. Jehovah Jireh is a compound name—it means God sees and provides. He’s aware of our needs before we are. He sees our burdens, grief, financial struggles, family concerns, and hidden tears. Nothing surprises Him. Nothing escapes His attention. And nothing can keep Him from delivering us from the troubles we face. Join us tomorrow as we see how the Lord provided for Abraham when he needed it most. The God who was faithful to Abraham is the same God who provides for us today.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Time is a funny thing. It can cause us to idealize the past—or slowly forget it. After generations in Egypt, the God of their ancestors had become distant to many of the Israelites. But in the story of Moses and the burning bush, God draws near and reveals himself in a fresh and personal way. Join us as we discover the name of God and the beautiful way he meets his people in their deepest need.

A sermon from the series “Hallowed Be Thy Names.” Shakespeare famously asked, “What’s in a name?” Modern culture often answers, “Not much.” Scripture, however, gives a very different answer. In the Old Testament, naming a child was much more than picking a pretty word. A name signified the essence, character, or nature of a person.

The same is true of God. Throughout Scripture, God reveals Himself through more than one hundred names and descriptive titles. Each name unveils something of His character, His power, and His faithfulness, often emerging in moments when His people needed Him most.

Throughout the rest of the summer, we’ll explore eight of these names, discovering how each one helps us know God more deeply and respond to Him with greater love, trust, and reverence.

We’ll begin at the very beginning—in Genesis 1:1—where God first reveals Himself as Elohim, the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth

A sermon from the series “2 Thessalonians – Life in These Last Days.” Why do you do what you do?

There’s a story about three stone masons who were asked what they were doing. The first replied, “I’m cutting stone.” The second said, “I’m making a living.” But the third smiled and answered, “I’m building a cathedral for God and His people.”

The difference wasn’t the work—it was the perspective.

Join us this Sunday as we conclude our series in Thessalonians and discover God’s purpose for our work. Whether you’re a student, stay-at-home parent, retiree, business owner, or employee, you’ll be encouraged to see that your work truly matters.
