Journey- Title.png

JAN 4 - FEB 8

It’s a new year with new ambitions and new hopes. The idea of a new year is that this year will be better than the last, and our resolutions are geared towards wholeness – some might even say the perfect life. But what happens when you’ve been in one place 430 years and God calls you elsewhere? What happens when that “elsewhere” isn’t quick or convenient? How do we find peace in the mist of a wandering, uncertain, imperfect world? We long for the Promised Land, but let’s not forget all the ways we encounter God along the way.

Making Sense of Miracles.png

APR 5 - APR 26

In a brief survey of Jesus’ miracle stories, we’ll explore the many ways Jesus bends the laws of the natural world in order to show us how inviting his supernatural presence into our natural world can shape our lives from natural to supernatural.  

Laws for a New Land- Sermon Series (Facebook Cover)_edited.jpg

FEB 15 - MAR 29

As Moses leads the Israelites away from their old existence in Egypt and towards the Promised Land of Israel, some things need to change. Not only do they need to change, but they need to be a people who are distinctively just, kind, and holy compared to those they are escaping. Bringing to mind the past promises and future prophecies that Israel is to be a land where all nations come to find righteousness, we’ll explore the expectations God has for Israel – and how we might consider our 21st century way to distinctively show God’s love and light in our community today. 

Monumental Moments.png

MAY 3 - JUNE 7

There are often moments in scripture where Joshua, Abraham, or others build an altar to the Lord in a place where they have experienced holiness and blessing. In May, we celebrate many of those moments which can bring us back to a place of holiness and blessing. The monuments we create in our hearts can help us find a promised land, even if we’ve lost sight of the moment we meant to memorialize.

Fasting to Feast.png

MAR 8 - MAR 29

In Luke 14, Jesus uses the example of a great feast to teach many lessons about the Kingdom of God, in contrast to Luke 4 where Jesus denies himself food for 40 days to prepare for his work to bring the Kingdom of God to us.  We often want to skip to the feast, but what can we learn from the fast that helps us to find the abundance of God’s heavenly world?
