Life here is hard and can get really frustrating but sometimes we let things take center stage when they really don't deserve the attention and time. Our pettiness and grumbling can keep us from sharing the light of Jesus in a world that needs Him more than our opinions. Tough?  You bet!

We are back and returning to our Not Home Yet series. We are going through the letter to the Philippians looking for clues on how to live like Jesus here and now in a place so different from the kingdom he described. Thank you for joining us!

Mother's Day is a special opportunity to honor and celebrate our moms and the women in our lives who have given life to us and our dreams. But it can be a complicated day, too. This week, Pastor Michele taught on Grace, that special something that means you are loved. Period.

God's heart is global and salvation is both a gift of grace and an invitation to partner with Him in bringing his kingdom to earth now. We just completed our first official 30 for Freedom event and this Sunday we hosted Paul Hurckman, Executive Director of Venture. Paul challenged us to both see and be the Light in the Darkness.

After a wonderful Easter weekend we are returning to our Not home yet series where we are looking to Paul's letter to the Philippians for clues on how to live our best lives here and now while we anticipate the ever after.

Thank you for joining us!

We had a wonderful Easter weekend remembering and celebrating the death and resurrection of Jesus! Jesus made some bold statements about himself and he is either right or he isn't. He said, I am the Good Shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep. He wants you to know him and his great love for you. And we do, too!

We have all been through some stuff and will likely go through some stuff again, because life is hard sometimes. And there are a few different ways we can respond to that stuff. What if God wants to use those things that happen, those wounds to do good in your life or someone else's life? There's hope and grace in that thought, potential, and possibility. 

It's week 3 of our "Not Home Yet" series and we're talking about God's ability to turn your suffering into something that gives life.

No matter where or when you live, life is challenging. Sometimes we get ourselves into trouble and sometimes even good times are hard work. That's life. As we continue our look at Paul's letter to the Philippians, we find Paul grateful for the faithfulness of his friends in good times and bad. They helped plant the church and they remained faithful in his darkest hours all opportunities for Jesus' grace and love to be put on display!
