Jesus knows what it’s like to have enemies, people who seem to make it their life goal to sabotage and trip you up. But you might be surprised by how Jesus Himself responded and how He teaches us to respond…Jesus stepped up on a mountainside and delivered the best sermon ever.

Jesus stepped up on a mountainside and delivered the best sermon ever. But it was more than a sermon, it was a vision of what life is like under God’s rule. We want to see God’s Kingdom come, God’s will be done in our cities as it is in heaven. Join us and let’s understand, apply, and live the Sermon on the Mount for the sake of our world. The Sermon on the Mount opens with some pretty wild statements by Jesus. The poor are blessed? The mourning are blessed? The insulted and persecuted righteous are blessed? What does it mean to be blessed? Check out this message to find out (and spoiler: it’s probably not what you think!)Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

Once you can put a pin in your passion and you've gotten the gist on God's call on your life, then you begin imagining with the Holy Spirit on what the convergence looks like. This message helps unpack that last part. As we wrap up this short series, we are not wrapping up our commitment to pursue the callings God has put on our lives and the passions He's sparked hearts. Join us in praying for a missional imagination that looks for new ways to punch holes in the darkness all around us!This new sermon series is all about realizing that our driving passions might just be what drives us into God's mission. Have you ever considered what your passions are? Maybe camping, cars, a sport, a hobby, an era in history, a type of tech, etc. ... What if the thing that stokes your inner fire is the very light Jesus wants to use to punch holes in the darkness all around us? Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

We’ve all done something and then seen that look in people’s eyes. You know the one, where some of the joy leaves, the smile thins, and a cool draft blows in. And it seems that some of their love for you gets caught up like fall leaves in that draft and blows away. Human beings struggle with loving well, but God doesn’t. He promises that nothing in you and nothing outside of you will interrupt or intercept His love for you. I promise. How many of us have heard that statement but the promise became a broken promise. I promise that I will come to your game. I promise to be married to you forever. I promise it won't happen again. The hurt, pain, and discouragement are real. Can we trust anyone to fulfill their promises to us? The answer is, yes! Did you know that God will never break His promises to you? What are those promises that you can trust Him for? Join us for this series as we look at four promises from God that He makes to each one of us.Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

What are some habits or aspects of your life that you are not proud of? The Bible says that when we live apart from God, we are actually enslaved to those things that bring ruin into our lives; and what’s worse, we offered ourselves to those things! But thanks be to God! In Jesus, He has enabled us to offer ourselves to Jesus. This is grace! We offer ourselves to Jesus to become like Him, free and pure. Now that’s a promise! I promise. How many of us have heard that statement but the promise became a broken promise. I promise that I will come to your game. I promise to be married to you forever. I promise it won't happen again.

Think of a time when you felt afraid. Didn’t you feel small, your abilities inadequate, your logic and reason insignificant? Joshua might have felt the same way as he faced crossing the Jordan River and capturing the land God promised the Israelites; but then God spoke to him saying, be strong and courageous because I will be with you. That promise of God’s presence, which is itself the gift of courage, is still available to you today!I promise. How many of us have heard that statement but the promise became a broken promise.
