This Sunday, Pastor Ben Watts gives a sermon on waiting patiently as we eagerly anticipate the dreams, hopes, and even promises given to us by God. We can cling to hope as our anchor because we know God is faithful and has a perfect purpose for each of us. This journey is represented countless times throughout scripture, specifically with Abraham and Sarah in the Old Testament!

Every year, we take a few Sundays to just tell God Stories! These are testimonies of God’s work and inspiring true stories of miracles God has done in the lives of people right here in our congregation! Do you have a testimony of salvation, provision, healing, or deliverance? Has God done a miracle in your life? The Bible says let the redeemed of the Lord tell their story. Remember, your testimony could be someone else's prophecy!

Pastor Jeff Sparkman wraps up our Jesus First Series with the last word of the year, “Times of refreshing, renewal, and rest”. A big part of returning to your first love is about the rhythms of life and how to live with purpose, less distraction, and less busyness. The goal of this message is to stir us all to make some adjustments to our daily and weekly rhythms, and to experience a refreshing in the Lord in times of prayer!

Pastor Jeff Sparkman shares God’s word with a message called “Consecrated, a Heart Set Apart”. In our Jesus First series on returning to our first love, we are focusing on making Jesus the center of our lives. This Sunday, we discuss the difference between seeing Jesus as the Savior of your life, and actually making him the LORD of your life.

This Sunday, our honored guest speaker and member Dr. Richard Barnor speaks on how we must be willing to move with God's direction, and that where we are planted spiritually matters. In the right spiritual environment, our gifts and destiny are called forth. Additionally, God’s revelation is always unfolding, and we must be willing to move with Him into new seasons. Clinging to past moves or traditions can cause us to miss what God is doing now. Stay hungry, stay flexible, and seek fresh encounters with God’s heart and purpose!

Continuing our series on keeping Jesus as the priority in your life, this week Pastor Jeff Sparkman speaks on repentance. What do we do when we get off track in our relationship with God, and how do we get back?

Today we kick off our new series, Jesus First, which is based off one of our words for the year: returning to your first love! This Sunday, Pastor Jeff Sparkman speaks not only on putting God first in everything, but also the tremendous blessings that come from making Him the center of your life.

Reflecting on the end of our series through the Gospel of John, Pastor Ben Watts gives a powerful sermon over one of our themes for the year: return to your first love. Pastor Ben speaks on asking God for an outpouring of the same passion, joy, and dedication we once lived in when we first became believers, or when we had a specific encounter with God. But when life gets difficult, it becomes harder and harder to remember these moments. We need to return to our first love, the Creator of the universe!
