BIBLE STUDY — 'GOD’S WORD IS MEDICINE'

Proverbs 4:20-22 says, “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.” Some translations say, “medicine to all their flesh.” God’s Word truly is living and powerful, and when applied to our life can bring restoration and health in a multitude of ways! Join us as we discuss health and learn how God's Word can be a transformative factor in both our emotional and bodily health!

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN (PART 2) - 'GOD WITH US’

Join us as we continue our journey through the Gospel of John! We will be diving into John 1:1-18. In this passage John introduces key themes that we will see regularly throughout his Gospel. The biggest theme being Christ's divinity. Jesus is GOD in flesh! In presenting Christ's divinity John also gives us helpful language to begin to reflect on the Trinity (Father, Son, Spirit). Other themes like light, life, witness, belief, and grace all make appearances as well. Encountering God in Christ and receiving the light, life, and grace that He brings is the foundation for the Christian life!

EVERYTHING I HAVE IS YOURS

Join us as we unpack Jesus' parable on the prodigal son, with special focus on the older brother. In this parable, the father ventures out into the darkness to plead with his older boy to begin to recognize his presence and grace. The older boy had a 'works mentality', lived a judgmental and bitter life, and desperately needed to understand the 'living inheritance' he had from his father! A lesson every child of God needs to learn and relearn! 

THE GOSPEL OF JOHN (PART 1) - ‘INTRO’

Join us as we worship the Lord and begin a new series on the Gospel of John! This sheds much unique light on the ministry and person of Christ. It is a Gospel written from a disciple who was part of Jesus' inner circle. One who knew His private conversations well, and had deeply internalized His message of love. One who was led by the Spirit to present Christ in such a way that simultaneously thrills and challenges all who read. Join us as we get a panoramic perspective and introduction to this life transforming Gospel!

THE BURIAL CLOTH OF JESUS

Join us as we worship the Lord, fellowship together, and dive into what the four Gospels say about the linen shroud Jesus was buried in. What is the theological significance of His shroud? Is the shroud a historical artifact that we still possess today? A historical artifact that not only gives evidence to the crucifixion of our Lord, but also His resurrection!? Be encouraged as we take a fascinating journey into this topic and are strengthened in our faith concerning the truth of our Risen and Reigning Savior!

THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS CHRIST

He's Alive! It's really true! The tomb is still empty! Join us as we celebrate the greatest day in history and experience His Presence! Our Children's Church is excited to perform a special skit and song, and the Sermon will unpack the resurrection of Jesus Christ in the Gospel of Matthew! 

GOOD FRIDAY — 'THE 7 LAST WORDS OF JESUS’

Join us as we celebrate Good Friday! We will be looking at Jesus’ seven final statements from the cross. His final ‘sermon’ before He died. It is important as followers of Jesus to have each one of these final statements deeply imbedded on our hearts and minds!

Palm Sunday

Join us as we worship the Lord, fellowship together, and begin holy week waving palm branches to our King! The fact that PALM BRANCHES lined the road and were waved at Jesus as He entered Jerusalem to the shouts of 'hosanna!' has profound theological significance. Jesus is our Victor, the long awaited Lamb of God, our Second Adam, and to Him belongs all glory and praise! Let us lay our lives down before our King of kings! Jerusalem, Nazareth circulating

THE AUTHORITATIVE NAME OF JESUS

Join us for our Bible Study as we continue our series on Healing! We will be looking at how Jesus regularly taught His disciples to use His Name when casting out demons or laying hands on the sick. Peter told the crippled man at the Gate Beautiful, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk” (Acts 3:6). He then explained the miracle saying, “His name, through faith in His name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know” (Acts 3:16). Christ has commissioned us to be agents of healing and has given us His authoritative name to use as we minister!

ON FIRE FOR THE LORD

Join us as we worship the Lord, fellowship together, and spend one last Sunday diving into the Song of Songs. At the end of the Song the bride of Christ is ON FIRE for the LORD. She is out in the harvest field with the LORD, filled with His love and life, and fully leaning upon Him in all things. The intensity of their love is described as "Flames of fire. A most vehement flame" (Song 8:6). A fire that was stoked as she simply rested in the arms of Jesus and was restored to new life!
