Few recitations ring as familiar as the Lord’s Prayer. And while it’s familiarity can feel comforting, monotony can creep into these sacred words and leave us wondering what’s the point? Is prayer merely a stringing together of words uttered to a far-off God? What if prayer is something Beyond what we ever imagined?  

During this six-week vision series we will examine Jesus’ response to the disciples’ questions about prayer and see how we too can learn to pray through His example. Jesus saw prayer, intimacy with the Father, as the goal—not the means. Through this series we too will learn what it is to explore the depth and wonder of a vibrant prayer life beyond what we’ve ever know possible.   

Advent begins with a proclamation that stirs something deep within us. For centuries, humanity had waited in eager expectation for their Savior; now a voice crying in the wilderness sparked hope that He was near. John the Baptist’s message was simple, “Prepare the Way.” As the forerunner of Christ, John didn’t seek platforms or success, he simply lived to make way for the King to come. 

Today, we too wait in eager expectation for our Savior. As we journey through the life of John the Baptist during this 5-week series, we will learn what it means to Prepare the Way for Christ in our own lives as we continue waiting with purpose and walking in promise. “The Kingdom of Heaven is near!” 

Everything changes. Seasons come and go, markets rise and fall, relationships shift, strengthen, and sometimes shatter. In a world that often feels tethered to nothing and grasping for everything, how do we as disciples of Jesus remain "steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord?"  

During this four-week message series, we will see how we can claim the confidence given to us through Christ; not a confidence we have to earn, but one that is already ours.  As we journey through this series, we pray that your heart becomes emboldened by this promise as we become a people that are immovable, unshakable, and Steadfast. 

The fundamental desire of every follower of Jesus is simply to please God. While that statement might seem simple, it is often hard to know just how to do this. What does following Jesus truly look like? What does faith look like?

In this five-week series we will discover just what faith looks like as we examine the lives of those in Hebrews 11; a chapter known as “The Faith Hall of Fame.” Understanding faith is integral to our journey as followers of Jesus because without it, it is impossible to please God. Don’t worry, it actually is pretty simple—so join us as we uncover the Fruits of Faith together.

Why is community important? It's simple. When we look at the ultimate example of Godly living, the life of Christ, we see that He chose to be in intimate relationship with people. The Son of God Himself viewed connection with others as so vital that He spent most of His earthly ministry with just twelve men. A small circle- an eternal legacy.

During this three-week series, we will see just how integral family is to the Christian life as we invite you to join life groups or get involved in some way.  It's messy, it's hard, and it's often inconvenient; yet just as Jesus was willing to lay His life down for us, may we too be a people who let go of our own desires in service One to Another. This is the heartbeat of our faith. Your circle may be small, but your surrender will leave an eternal legacy.
