Living On Purpose

this week, Pastor Ray Noah will share about Paul’s passion as a shepherd of the church out of Colossians chapter 1.

Passion of a Pastor

You’re invited to experience the depths of Christ’s love for you. It’s a love that forgives. A love that restores. A love that never ends. Because of His sacrifice, we can joyfully celebrate the hope we have in Jesus together! So, come as you are and Join us for any of our Holy week gatherings. […]

He Lives

Join us today for a look at meekness, our strength under God’s control. Jesus teaches us that meekness is not weakness, rather, it is a humble strength that God can use to advance His Kingdom and bless the lives of others around you.

The Mighty Meek

In his second Beatitude for Kingdom living, Jesus said “Blessed,” that is joyful, happy, “are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” So when we are sad, we can be so happy? How can that be? Well, there are some things—actually, some of life’s most important things—that we can only learn through the kind […]

So Sad So Happy

Christians in every age and in every place tend to drift from a biblical view of the kingdom of God to a view that is filtered through the lens of culture. When that happens, God always calls his people to realign their cultural view back to a Kingdom view. And one of the ways he […]

So Poor – So Rich

This week we have an encouraging message from special guest George Neau

Special Guest: George Neau

In this final and extremely vital message of our “Refocus: Getting Back to the Basics of Discipleship” series, let’s explore why we desperately need the continual presence and power of the Holy Spirit to carry out our main work as disciples: taking the gospel to the world by our lips and through our lives. We […]

The Indwelling: Our Divine Helper

In whatever we do, whether at home or at the office; for big money or for a meager wage, in retirement or at school, if there’s a future in it or it is a dead-end job, our work matters to God. He created us for work, and to enjoy our work. So, it is just […]

Work: The Continuation of Worship

It’s all about love – those aren’t just the words of a song or a catchy idea. This is, in fact a command from Jesus – to love one another as He loved us. This is the preeminent mark of a disciple and the way we show the world who Jesus is.  

It’s All About Love

Admittedly, whenever Christians hear sermons on reaching the lost, there is an accompanying intimidation factor. We get very nervous in this day and age about sharing Christ with non-Christians. But when you consider the approach of the disciple Andrew, you will discover a simple, enjoyable and non-threatening way of engaging the spiritually curious. By following […]

Share: Having Spiritual Conversations

God created us with a unlimited capacity to worship—to be dazzled by him. We were made to praise our Maker as long as we breathe. We were designed to be captivated by the wonder of a God who is infinitely worthy of our highest, costliest, most passionate worship. As A. W. Tozer said: “We’re called […]

Worship: An Everlasting Preoccupation With God

If you want to improve your experience of life, then deliberately change your thinking. That’s why Proverbs 4:23 says, “Above all else, guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life.” In Jewish thought, the heart was the center of thinking. The Apostle Paul taught a great deal about how a Christian is to […]

Back to the Basics of Discipleship

God has fashioned you for family. And to get back to the basics of discipleship, you’ve got to get into intentional community with a few other believers in order to experience family as God intended it, like the first disciples who “devoted themselves to the fellowship.” (Acts 2:42) As you do, you will not only […]

Community: Fashioned for family

One of the big obstacles hindering our journey of discipleship is thinking that the goal of Christianity is simply to make it into heaven. The point of salvation is not merely to get us there someday — that’s our destination, and one day we’ll wake up in heaven, to our great delight. But our destination […]
