Conflict is an inevitable part of life. Pastor Evan Bialk gives a message on conflict in believers lives and how we handle conflict in our lives reflects our witness to the world.

Living in biblical community is essential for Christians. It is also commanded by God, we are commanded to love "one another" and we love each other through being in relationship with one another.

Pastor Evan Bialk wraps up our series through Esther with a message that examines how the celebration of Purim, invites us to also celebrate in something greater, in the salvation that we have in Jesus Christ. The salvation found in Jesus Christ should draw up a spirit of celebration constantly. He reemphasizes how we were created for this moment and each one of us has good works that have been laid out for us, and we should seek to do them, lest someone else steal our crown.

Pastor Jim Keller continues our series through Esther.

Pastor Evan Bialk continues our series through Esther with a message that addresses that sin's consequences are far reaching. Evidenced by the continued death decree on the Jews that was put into place through the pride of Haman even after his execution. Also how God ultimately saves his people through another decree of life for the Jews, and how this mirrors the death decree pronounced on all of humanity in Gen. 3 and the decree of life we are given through the person and work of Jesus Christ.

Pastor Evan Bialk continues our series through Esther with a message on Haman's Downfall in Esther 7. The text highlights how it is right to risk for the Gospel, and how it is right to risk for God. Even through God doesn't need our help to fulfill his plans, he uses us. That God does and will defeat his enemies and we should proudly identify and stand as God's people. Pastor Evan also points out that the pride of Haman ultimately leads to his downfall.

Pastor Evan Bialk continues our series through Esther with his message "God's Providential Reversal". Esther 6 serves as a turning point in Esther's story, through the providence of God and the faith and patience of Esther, the story begins to unfold on how God is going to save His people. It begins with a small reversal, where as Haman goes to ask to kill Mordecai, he is instead ordered to honor him, after the King experiences a sleepless night that changes everything. The reversal of the Jewish peoples fate in Persia mirrors the greater reversal in the salvation from death we have in Jesus Christ.

Pastor Casey Moore's sermon delves into the themes of faith and pride using the story of Queen Esther. Esther's boldness and faith in approaching the king serve as examples for believers to prioritize God's leading over personal comfort. The sermon emphasizes the need to overcome pride, which hinders us from fulfilling God's purpose in our lives. By walking in faith and trusting in God's providence, believers can find joy and confidence amidst the ongoing battle between faith and pride.
