Messages on Trials
Tamar
The genealogy of Jesus doesn’t include who one might expect. In fact, the stories of women like Tamar in the Old Testament are some of the messiest we find in Scripture. Yet, God can still work through the mess of Tamar’s story and bring the Messiah and redemption to the world. And if that’s the case, is there anything in your life He cannot redeem, including you?
A Season to Persevere
Following Jesus isn’t always easy. In life, we’re constantly faced with struggles, discouragement, and despair. Jesus invites us to keep going. Listen as Pastor Brent shares about the hope we can find in Jesus as we persevere.
Bitter Blessings
Dive into the book of Exodus with us in our newest sermon series, exploring the work of God in an enslaved people known as the Israelites. Pastor Brent begins with the first chapter of the book, where we learn the way of blessing is not always easy. In fact, the real path of blessing might just be through hardship and bitterness.
Irreplaceable Life
Guest pastor Sherri Harder shares the beautiful story of Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz we find in the Old Testament. Ruth, a Moabite widow, demonstrates loyalty, bravery, and faith in God alongside her mother-in-law, Naomi, in a journey full of trials, hope, and ultimately redemption. This message, a favorite of Pastor Sherri’s, kicks off our new series full of favorite sermons from our team!
The Cost of Discipleship
In Jesus’ final moments with His disciples, He warns them of the difficulties to come. Following Jesus is not without cost, sacrifice, and even persecution for some across the world. What does it look like to follow Jesus when the world is against you?

Success and Seduction

Falling From Favor
In the book of Genesis, we find the redemptive story of a favored son named Joseph who has a dream. However, the dreams God gives us may not always take place the way we expect them to!

Trusting God in Prayer
