Jesus came proclaiming a new paradigm for who are the winners and who are the losers. His new Kingdom doesn’t just touch an individual’s physical or spiritual personhood. The Kingdom comes to reorder even our communal economic realm. In Luke 4:16-21, Jesus reveals that God has come to proclaim Good News to the poor! Curious about this news? Come, listen to this message In sports, we look at the scoreboard to see which team is winning. Does God have a scoreboard for the church? Yes, He does! In fact, at the beginning of his earthly ministry, Jesus made it very clear what His game plan looks like to ensure that we are victorious in fulfilling his mission. During this four-week series, we will discover that winning, in God’s eyes, goes well beyond what many of us previously thought. Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

Jesus came proclaiming a new paradigm for who are the winners and who are the losers. Oddly enough, God is drawn to the ones who are sick, who know they need healing. Sometimes God allows us to walk a bitter road so that we might come to know Him more fully as Jehovah-Rapha, the God who Heals. Do you need healing? May you find comfort in this message.

Who do you go to for money advice?  Your friends, maybe your parents, a financial advisor, perhaps even google?  I’ll bet you wouldn’t go to a crook, but shockingly Jesus uses the story of a common everyday criminal as an example of how to handle our money and the point He shares is absolutely counter to what you might think you’d hear.  This Sunday, don't miss the conclusion of our Money Madness series as I dive into an entertaining, and at the same time, powerful and challenging message about money and possessions.  Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

If you were to take a look at your life and break down what you do each day, you’d really start to see what your priorities are. The same is true of the money you have – how you use it is like a neon sign pointing to what you care about most. What does how you invest and spend your money say about you?  In our current series Money Madness, we’ll take a look at what the Bible says about money and how to invest it, so our hearts move toward God and away from the madness money can bring to our lives.   Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

It’s one of the biggest days of the year-Superbowl Sunday! Join us as we invite former OSU Bobby Carpenter to speak!

Join us as we dive into the question of what wisdom really is, and more specifically what God’s wisdom means to us and in our lives. By looking at the book of Proverbs, we are met with God’s wisdom. The Bible tells us there are two directions, two different paths that we can take in life. One leads to our demise and the other leads to success and satisfaction. One is called the way of foolishness and the other is called the way of wisdom. You will be very surprised on what this wisdom can do for us.

Join us as we continue our series “Hitting the Gym” with week three focusing on ‘Transforming Conversations". . In this critical start to the new year, we’re uncovering the secrets to becoming the best version of who God made us to be and examining a daily set of practices that will help us reach the spiritual goal that God has for all of us. You can do it and we want to help! Is prayer disappointing to you? Is it time to see it differently? What if prayer is to look less like a vending machine and be more of a conversation that transforms us and connects us to our loving Father? The disciples followed Jesus everywhere and saw him do all kinds of amazing things. They could have asked Him to teach them about all sorts of things but what captured their attention was how He prayed and what happened when He did. So they asked him to teach them to pray. What He gave them (and us) goes way beyond some words we can say.

Join us in our first week of our new series, Hitting the gym, where we’ll discover why that is and what to do about it. We’ll uncover the secrets to becoming the best version of who God made us to be and we’ll examine a daily set of practices that will help us reach the spiritual goal that God has for all of us. Why is it that so many people start to make changes in the new year only to lose motivation and quit a few weeks later?Would you believe it's small things that will lead us to big changes? Which means you can totally do it… and we want to help!
