Limited Resources, Limitless God
Our culture has often touted the virtues and value of the self-reliant individual. However, God never intended us to stand alone but to rely on Him. When we look to Him, we discover that our all-gracious and limitless God is more than enough to help us live life to the fullest.
Sharing Jesus in a Post-Christian World
Judeo-Chrisitan teaching and thinking has long dominated our American culture, but in recent years, society has been drifting away from this foundation. Truth has become whatever you want it to be, and Jesus is whoever you want Him to be. But the gospel—the good news of Jesus Christ—is still as relevant and still as needed today.

God Is: Understanding the Character of God
The world is overrun with religions, philosophies, and personal opinions regarding the nature and character of God. Left to our own devices, we typically make God in our own image and make Him into the kind of God we want. We are not left to figure God out on our own. Through the revelation of Scripture, we can see exactly who God is.
Seize the Day: Embracing a Mission with Purpose
Followers of Christ are called to share the gospel through words and actions. It’s a privilege we’ve been given to walk with Christ and take His gospel to our neighbors, our community, and the world. Through the book of Acts, we see the example from the early church of what it looks like to joyously embrace the mission.
