Singled Out - Part Three: From Rejected to Rescued

One of the hardest situations for anyone to deal with is being rejected. What is worse is when we aren’t just rejected by one, but by many. This kind of rejection creates an outcast. Jesus our Savior didn’t go out of His way, but took the road less traveled just to have a divine appointment to rescue a rejected woman. Not only was this a surprise to her, but she surprised everyone who ever rejected her. When Jesus transforms a life, the result will be even more transformed lives. Grab your Bible, something to take notes with and join us for part three of Single Out.

Singled Out - Part Two: From Religious to Relationship

Religion isn’t all it is cracked up to be. We truly don’t need more religious people or more religion. There is something far better. This weekend, we are going to see someone who was extremely religious secretly approach Jesus. He was looking for more than what his religion was offering. The answers he found have been shared ever since. Come ready to discover that the relationship Jesus came to offer, is far superior to the offerings that are found in religion.

Singled Out - Part One: From Isolated to Included

Have you ever been singled out? While you might think of this as a negative thing, it can also be positive. To be singled out could mean being noticed, being included or even being excluded. In this series, Pastor Wil is going to walk us through several people who had a one on one encounter with Jesus. Some singled Him out, while others He singled out. Join us as we learn more about the heart of our Savior through this series. Don’t forget to invite someone to sit with you!

Beyond the Stories - Part Six: Short and Mighty

The Kingdom of Heaven is like…. How would you finish that sentence? How would you try to describe what it is like? Wouldn’t it be great if we could have an understanding of this and be able to tell others about it? This Sunday, Pastor Wil is finishing the series Beyond the Stories and will share several short parables Jesus used to describe what the Kingdom of Heaven is like.

Beyond the Stories - Part Five: The Talents

Talents are God given gifts. We don’t earn them or deserve them, yet we chose if and how we will use them. Some people waste their talents, others bury their talents, some dabble with their talents and then there are those who maximize their talents. This weekend we will look beyond the story Jesus told about talents and see what was driving Him to tell this parable so everyone who hears would be motivated to make the most of their God-given talents.

Beyond the Stories - Part Four: Always Pray and Never Give Up

Jesus shared a parable that shows how persistent prayer and persevering action will not go unnoticed by God, who is fair and loving toward His people. This Sunday, we will go over how continually doing these two practices brings a heavenly promise. If you find it challenging to bring yourself to pray, or maybe you struggle to have faith in the power of prayer, this message is for you.

Beyond the Stories - Part Three: The Vineyard

This weekend, we continue to go Beyond the Stories of Jesus and identify the significance of what is at stake. In the parable of The Vineyard, Jesus once again takes the original listener on a word picture journey to speak prophecy, judgement and hope. This parable is intense and shocking. Join us as we grow our understanding of what hangs in the balance according to Jesus.

Beyond the Stories - Part Two: Loving Your Neighbor

This Sunday we will continue our journey with Jesus' parables. In the book of Luke, Jesus calls us to love our neighbor. Sometimes it is harder to love our neighbor depending on who they are. Come and find out how Jesus guides us in how to love our neighbor.

Beyond the Stories - Part One: Lightly Salted

Jesus was a master communicator. He related timeless truths through the use of made up stories called parables. A parable can be understood as an earthly story with heavenly meanings. With God’s Kingdom on His mind, each parable Jesus told was crafted to help the listener understand a bigger picture than the story itself. Join us as we embark on an adventure to look beyond the stories and discover their more significant meaning.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part Six: Seeing the Big Picture

Seeing the big picture adds clarity, but we can easily struggle to see the big picture. We find ourselves so close to some matters that we don’t naturally step back to take in the big picture. The close up view blinds us like the old saying, "you can’t see the tree through the forest". This weekend we are going to learn how and why we need to see big picture. It was the big picture that gave Joseph the ability to see God’s blessings despite the mess made by people. Don’t miss this perspective as we finish up Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life In 3D.
