A Compelling Welcome
Luke 14:12-24 The family table is the place where we feel we all belong. Jesus’ guest list is quite startling. Those who might be deemed worthy of an invite reject it. Those whom others pass over on the invitation list are compelled to come to His table. Those who are the most vulnerable should be ones Jesus’ followers show radical hospitality and offer a compelling invitation to be a part of...
Welcome
Ephesians 4:1-6; Exodus 25:8; John 1:1-5, 14; Acts 4:32-35 The family table is the place where we feel we all belong. The risk in welcoming people to the table is that they will be different than us, and even a bit messy. Yet, the genuine longing that people have (because it was placed in all of us by God), is to belong to God and to His family. We must follow this calling as a church because...
The Resurrection
John 20:1-18 Jesus came to bring us new life through faith in Him. The evidence is there to show the belief in the resurrection is the most reasonable answer to the events of that day. The resurrection is not an abstract idea, but a personal invitation to come and know this Man who loves us and wants us to love Him. View the full service on our YouTube channel.

Life Giver
John 11:1-7, 17-27 Jesus came to bring us new life through faith in Him. Our journey with Jesus is not just about the end—eternal life—but just as much about the now. How we live, following the values that shape us, and the glory of God that we seek to bring Him is what Kingdom life is about. We experience God’s new abundant life through the unfiltered abundant love of Jesus as He addresses our...
The Hope of Revival
Acts 2:36b-41 Luke records in the book of the Acts of the Apostles the story of the first ever Revival in the New Testament Church. The revival birthed the Church 2000 years ago and spread the Good News of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. Since then God has sent Revival and Spiritual Awakening to revive His people about every 40-60 years. Could it be that God is reviving His Church...
Where’s the Milk?
Acts 1:1-11 In between the time of Jesus' departure and His returning, we are called to all be witnesses. God Himself, empowers us for that mission. May we not get distracted by the things of this world and remember what we have been called to do. View the full service on our YouTube channel. By Pastor Ryan Phan
The Chosen Restorer
John 5:1-13 Jesus responds to a need of a person with a weakness, but it is not at the person’s request. Out of the compassion of His heart, Jesus gives life to one who is truly hopeless. Sin has so ruined the human heart that we’ve become grumbling, ungrateful creatures. Jesus came to restore the human heart, to give us a new nature and restore us to Father God.

How to Read the Bible (Part 3)
Matthew 5:17-20 Jesus came to fulfill the commands of God. He shows us the true intent and reveals the proper meaning of God’s Word. He did not misinterpret or undermine God’s Word, but showed how to really live it out, in a way more God glorifying than the Pharisees did. View the full service on our YouTube channel.

How to Read the Bible (Part 2)
Luke 1:1-4; 24:25-32 There is nothing more foundation in how you live as a Christian than your view of the Bible. Many say that the Bible, while good, is mostly fables and accepted lies. But in truth, the Bible is totally reliable, an authority in all that it teaches. The truth found in the Bible points to a certain Man who wants to impact all of our hearts.

The Chosen Heals
John 4:43-54 Jesus brought in the Kingdom of God to bring restoration, healing, and grace to a broken world. All He asks for is faith—even when we have fears and doubts, and even when true faith can’t be 100% proved. Come to him, yield to His terms, then tell others how Jesus provided.

The Chosen at the Wedding Feast
John 2:1-11 Because Jesus loves us so much, He cares about our big needs and everyday needs, especially our relationships with each other. Jesus’ healing power can transform relationships for He wants His blessing to be on even the most intimate of interactions. When we invite Jesus to enter our relationships, He does the miraculous.

Living the Bible
2 Peter 1:12-20 The Bible is truthful and reliable. We can believe this but not live it out—the Bible should guide the way we think, act, and live. The way of the Bible is for our and our neighbor’s good— living its ways out leads to life and fullness. View the full service on our YouTube channel. By Pastor Paul Sausser
