We all have hopes, plans and dreams for the future. In the course of life some hopes crash and burn, leaving us disappointingly saying “I had hoped…but this happened instead.” The good news is, God probably knows some things that you don’t know…and He’s given you His big toe…

Join us as we wrap up our series on Living and Growing in the Fullness of Christ.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ. What does God desire for us in the area of formation and transformation? How do we embrace, cooperate, and grow in our new identity in Christ and the new nature of “Christ in us”?

What does God desire for us in our personal relationship with Him? How can we develop a greater intimacy and dependency in our relationship with God? And what does it look like to walk in the fullness of relationship with: Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit on a daily basis?

What is this “Fullness of Christ” that God has in mind for us? And how are we to live, grow, and mature in it? Over the next 4 weeks we will be looking at some key elements and asking God, by His spirit, to cause us to hunger and thirst for more of what He desires for us. That we might “live a life worthy of the calling you have received.”

Join us as Pastor Jeff Farmer speaks to us about "The One Thing: Living in the Presence of God."

What is it that you want for your life? What is it that you want for your family? Your kids? Your church? All of us have dreams and desires, yet we wrestle with disappointment and unfulfilled desires. The Bible tells us, “Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4 Is this the secret to seeing our dreams come true?

God always has a plan. Time and again in the scriptures we see people God loves in the midst of difficult seasons, waiting for the promises of God to be fulfilled. And God always comes through. Every, single time. Join us for the next several weeks as we learn to “Trust the Process” while God is working in our midst.

The dictionary defines wonder as, “Filled with admiration, amazement, or awe.” When God created women he did something wonderful! This week we look into the life of Hannah, a heroic woman that modeled a life of trusting God through difficult circumstances.

As King Solomon nears the end of his life he pens an incredible letter. Full of wisdom and contemplation, Ecclesiastes contains the final conclusions of a man who has lived an amazing life, and now reflects on what God has taught him through it all. His conclusions are simple and profound. We are all created for a purpose, and God has laid out a path for each of us.

This week, we'll have a guest speaker, Pastor Dave Naron, who will be speaking out of the book of Acts.

If you think Jesus was a great leader and teacher, but find it hard to believe in his resurrection, you’re in good company. Even his disciples were skeptical. Nevertheless, those same followers were the ones who would later become the spokesmen of a new movement: the church. They would maintain faith in the midst of incredible suffering, even to the point of martyrdom. So what can we learn from this defining event—the one that became the foundation of their faith . . . and of ours?

At Passover, Jesus gathered his followers and spelled out a new relational arrangement between God and humankind: “As I have loved you, so you must love one another.” Initiating this new covenant with God, however, would require sacrifice. What came next would confuse his followers and send them scattering.

What did Jesus pray for when he prayed for us? He prayed for us to be “One”. Unity was an incredibly important part of the life of a Jesus follower. How could he expect that people across all demographics could come together and experience the love of God together? It was going to take a lot of prayer.

The words “unlimited” and “unconditional” can make us suspicious. Whether those words describe an insurance policy, cellphone agreement, or meal plan for a college student, we tend to go straight for the fine print. We assume unlimited is really limited and unconditional has some conditions. That suspicion can extend to our relationship with God. Unconditional love? Unlimited forgiveness? There must be a catch. But what if there isn’t?

But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" This was the question that was asked of Jesus just before he tells the story of the Good Samaritan. If we listen, Jesus clues us into more than this question asks.

Sometimes it can be easy to believe God loves his Law more than his people. We can even be tempted to prioritize rules instead of people. A lot of us here today have probably been hurt at some point by someone focusing more on the rules than grace. If we turn to Jesus he can offer us a life greater than keeping religious rules.
