Great Expectation • Kyle Smith • Easter Sunday • March 31st, 2024

Backwards From Bema • Spencer Powell • November 26, 2023

Jesus paid a high price for the payment of our sins on the cross. Because of his sacrifice we get the privilege to receive the free gift of salvation, but what is required of us post salvation? Today, we look at what Scripture calls “the judgment seat of Christ”, and how it should affect all of our daily lives.

Anchor Overseers: Pastor Alex Chai • November 19, 2023

Everyone knows about Jonah and the “whale” but ever wonder why this book is included in the Bible? As we enter into this fascinating story, not as passive listeners but as active participants, we learn something about Jonah, about God’s heart for the nations, and about ourselves. Maybe we are more like this Old Testament prophet than we realize?

But God/So God • Kyle Smith • April 9th, 2023

The miracle of Easter is not just the resurrection of Jesus, but that His resurrection provided everything necessary for our resurrection as well. We all were dead in our sin without the victory Jesus provided on that Easter morning over 2,000 years ago. But God saved us and gave us purpose! Praise God that the resurrected King is resurrecting humanity still today!

The Fruit of Salvation • Kyle Smith • April 2nd, 2023

The gospel does not just save us, but continues to grow righteous character in us until the day when we enter the presence of Christ for eternity. God does the heavy lifting of saving and maturing us, but we do get to participate by remaining in healthy connection to Jesus, our source of life.

In It For The Long Haul • Spencer Powell • January 29th, 2023

Jesus is calling his disciples to a lifetime of surrender and devotion to Him. In Matthew 7, Jesus teaches us that there are two paths, one leading to destruction and one leading to life. In an age where many are leaving the faith, will we be the ones to follow Jesus no matter the cost with an insatiable appetite for more of Him?

Christmas Eve 2022 • “Back To Their Flocks” • December 24th, 2022

The greatest news ever told was first delivered to shepherds in a field.

This is what the story of Christmas is still resulting in today. Will you experience the presence of Jesus and then go back to your flocks this Christmas.

“The Gift of Rest” • Pastor Kyle Smith • December 18th, 2022

In our desire to be a healthy church that endures and to be people that finish well, we must consider the rhythms God designed us to operate in. To finish well, we must both run hard and rest well. In a culture where we can feel the pressure to constantly produce, how do we rest well? There are many wonderful strategies and disciplines that can be helpful, but the most essential avenue to rest is the presence of Jesus.

“Unity in the Body” • Pastor Tucker Parman • November 27, 2022

In the book of Ephesians, there is a subtle thread that can be traced through the entire letter - unity. Over and over again Paul emphasizes the importance and significance of unity in our faith. One of the topics this shows up most in is unity in the body. Through the cross, Jesus has created a new humanity, bringing to himself people from all walks of life.
