April 14, 2024 We’re in the second week of our sermon series, “Chasing Carrots,” about chasing things we can’t quite get enough of. Last week we talked about chasing fame.

Chasing Carrots: Fame
April 7, 2024 We are starting a brand-new sermon series called Chasing Carrots. Are you chasing things you can’t quite get enough of? We always want more. Maybe you find yourself believing the lie, if I can just get that, and I’m not sure what “that” is for you, if I can just get that, that’s allContinue reading “Chasing Carrots: Fame “
The Good News of Jesus Christ
Easter, March 31, 2024 Happy Easter! Today is a beautiful day! But there are times when I wonder, is everything going to be all right? There are times when we all have stress, anxiety, and worry.

Christ Crucified
March 24, 2024 I love Palm Sunday! We all get a palm branch and remember the parade on Palm Sunday. We say hosannas and give praise to God for his goodness!

The Cross: Chasing Humility
March 3, 2024 Malcolm in the Middle is a TV show from 20 years ago that I enjoyed watching. It’s about a family with 4 kids. The Mom, Lois, thinks she’s always right.

The Cross: Choosing to Lose
February 18, 2024 We’re starting a new Sermon series for five Sundays on the surprising power of the cross! The cross is a central part of our faith.

Witness: The Difference a Servant Makes
February 4, 2024 We’re in a message series called “Witness”. It’s all about sharing our faith. We could all use some help with that, some motivation and courage to do it. Last week we heard about Paul and Silas, who were in prison because they healed someone in Jesus’ name. When an earthquake shook theContinue reading “Witness: The Difference a Servant Makes”
Good news of great joy for all people
Christmas Eve 2023 I don’t know if you’ve seen the photo of three young children, so cute, each holding a letter of the word JOY. But in the picture, they are all three kids crying, they’re extremely unhappy! Christmas is supposed to be joy, a gift God has given. Sometimes on the inside, we lookContinue reading “Good news of great joy for all people”
