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

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.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part Five: To Forgive or Not To Forgive?

One of the hardest choices we make is to forgive someone for what they’ve done. The hurt can be traumatizing and the pain can be agonizing. They might have meant to hurt us, or the hurt could have been brought unintentionally. But for everyone who has hurt us, we have a choice to make, to forgive them or not to forgive them. Join us and discover the personal benefits that come when we choose to forgive.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part Four: Overcoming Adversities

Adversity is a detour that is sometimes predictable; other times, we never see it coming. It is a great reminder of what God can do and will do to use the circumstances of adversity for our good. This fourth week of the series, Life in 3D, will show us why we can trust God even when we aren’t living in the fulfillment of our God-planted dream yet.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part Three: Making the Most of a Bad Situation

We’ve all had some bad situations we’ve lived through. Some seem far more unfair than others, but if we can hold onto hope and don’t give up, we could see God is still at work. In this third week of the series, Life in 3D, we will see how we can hold onto hope in God even when we aren’t yet living in the fulfillment of our God-planted dream yet. Join us and discover how to make the most of a bad situation.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part Two: Overcoming the Detour of Temptation

We all experience temptation. This detour gets our attention quickly and begs us to choose its path. Temptation isn’t a forced detour, but it is an attractive detour. Joseph navigated around this detour. This week we will take some notes on how we can apply what Joseph used to avoid this deadly detour.

Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D - Part One : The Dreamer

Detours are misunderstood when they interfere with your dreams. The shortest distance between two points is a straight line and detours are anything but a straight line. Detours equate to delays. Delays lead to discouragement. Discouragement leads to a fork in the road. One direction leads to the dead-end of defeat, while the other direction leads to finding your destiny. Join us, as we start the series Dreams, Detours and Destiny: Life in 3D where we learn that the delay of detours can actually work in our favor.
