Acts Part 2 | The Church in Antioch | September 18

,

Sermon by Adam Gibson on September 18, 2022.

In Acts 11 we see the church of Antioch. Strangely enough, none of the people that make up this church are named, and yet, God works in them to spread the gospel even further. By God’s grace, our hope is to be like them too.

Acts Part 2 | Who's In and Who's Out | September 11

,

Sermon by Adam Gibson on September 11, 2022.

One of the most significant barriers today to Christianity is that the gospel is too exclusive, but back then, one of the most significant barriers was that it was too inclusive. This week we look at Acts 10 and see that because of Jesus, no one is "unclean," and no one is too far off to belong. This concept is part of what makes God's church so beautiful.

Acts Part 2 | Three Expectations from the Life of Paul | September 4

,

Sermon by Jake Blair on September 4, 2022.

Knowing what to expect is essential in life. Whether it comes to becoming an adult, getting married, or learning to parent, expectations are critical. It's the same with being a Christian. In Acts 9, we look more closely at Paul's life, the opposition he faced, and what that tells about following Jesus.

Acts Part 2 | A Defining Moment | August 28

,

Sermon by Adam Gibson on August 28, 2022.

From Acts 4 onward, the early church receives murderous threats from the Jewish elite. In Acts 9, we zoom in on one in particular: Saul of Tarsus, a religious, moral zealot who believed he was on the right side of history. This week we see what happens when God’s Spirit uses God’s people to help change the trajectory of his life.

Acts Part 2 | The Movement of God | August 21

,

Sermon by Jake Blair on August 21, 2022.

As we get back into Acts, what does it mean to be the church? Why is it important? And how can we step into God’s story for us some 2,000 years removed from what we see in Acts?

Following Jesus Together | Abide | August 14

,

Sermon by Jake Blair on August 14, 2022.

We have a few catchphrases to narrate who we are, what we do, and what we're about as a church. One of those is that we're a people who are "Following Jesus Together."

One of the primary tools we use to help us follow Jesus is our Covenant Practices - seven practices we believe are crucial for your spiritual health - one of which is abiding with Jesus.

So for this sermon, we'll answer questions like, "What is the Bible?" "Why does it matter?" And "Who are we becoming when we commit to this practice?"

Fruit of the Spirit | Self-Control in a time of Self-Fulfillment | August 7

,

Sermon by Adam Gibson on August 7, 2022.

As we wrap up our series, we look at the final fruit of the Spirit: self-control. How do we live this when our world sees self-control as repressive or, at the very least, something we don’t want to emphasize in our lives?

Sermon by Ant Frederick on July 24, 2022.

We live in an age where often times, the more forcefully and bluntly you state how you feel about an issue, the more you’re celebrated by those who hold the same beliefs as you. So for us, how can we press into the fruit of gentleness in an age where harshness is seen as virtue?
