        "Grace is Always Amazing Grace"

        [September 15, 2024] Discover the profound message of grace in Pastor Nate’s reflection on the parable of the workers in the vineyard from Matthew 20. This parable challenges our understanding of God and reveals the nature of God’s kingdom—a kingdom marked by grace. The landowner’s act of paying all workers the same wage, regardless of their hours, reveals God’s grace to be an undeserved gift, freely given. Grace initiates a relationship with God and transforms us, empowering us to live generously and lovingly. Reflect on how you can embrace and extend grace in your life, and reorient your view of God around Jesus.

          "He's Not Far"

          [September 8, 2024] The parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector in Luke 18 challenges our perceptions of righteousness and invites us to experience God’s nearness. The Pharisee’s prayer contrasts with the tax collector’s humble plea for mercy. Jesus declares the tax collector justified, a shocking surprise to his audience. This story encourages us to create communities where it’s okay to not be okay and to seek God’s mercy in our daily lives.

            "Diving into the Story"

            [August 11, 2024] Every culture is a story culture. Stories have the ability to influence our belief systems, attitudes, actions and behaviors. Join with us as we dive into the story of Luke 5:1-11 and try to re-imagine it together. Have you ever thought about how many fish it would take to almost sink two 8ft x 26ft fishing boats? Be sure to watch.

              "Anxiety: What do we do with our worry?"

              [July 14, 2024] Anxiety. Jesus says, “Do not worry.” But how?! How do we not worry? What happens in a fit of worry? Of anxiety? Our Lead Pastor Nate Ray takes time to dive into this question by looking at Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 6, and into a real life example of anxiety in the Bible from a surprising person. Be sure to watch.

              Two things to note:

              1. Before the message, Nate takes a minute to address the assassination attempt on former President Trump, and to pray for our political leaders former, current and future.
              2. We have an exciting announcement with a building update! Be sure to catch yourself up!

                  [June 16, 2024] With Kid’s Camp on the horizon, our Lead Pastor Nate Ray reflects on Jesus’ words to his disciples: “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” Nate explains our “why” behind KidFront and Kid’s Camp.

                    "Not a Building" - What is Church Part 1

                    [April 14, 2024] “What is Church? More than four walls.” Our Lead Pastor Nate Ray kicks off our new teaching series around this foundational question. In Matthew 16, Jesus defines church, clarifies the messiah he will be, and clarifies the mission his people will be about. As we dive in, we’ll discover buried treasure. We’ll find our definitions challenged and expanded; we’ll remember whose church this is, and what Jesus promises: not even death can overcome what he’s up to in the world.

                      "A Living Hope" - Easter 2024

                      [March 31, 2024] You don’t want to miss Pastor Nate’s powerful Easter message. The Christian story is not a story of escape to heaven, but of the invasion of heaven, into our broken lives and into our broken world. Easter invites us into living hope – our God hasn’t abandoned the world, but is at work in the world; our God hasn’t abandoned us, but is at work in us. Brokenness doesn’t have the last word; death doesn’t have the last word. Restoration has the final word; life has the final word; God has the final word.
