I Quit (being afraid): Confronting

He’s a terrible boss. Almost everything he says is a lie. He sucks the life out of you and anyone he’s around. He holds you back from so much joy and adventure. And yet so many continue to serve Him. Who is he? Fear. It’s time for you to turn in your resignation and quit fear.
Week 1: I quit fear by confronting lies and believing God's truth.
Matthew 6:23-24

Death, Defeated

This weekend is a weekend of celebration. It’s a weekend of celebration because what we celebrate at Easter changed everything for humanity. It brings hope to those that are hopeless. It speaks new life to those who are desperate for a brighter future. In times of difficulties we cling to hope that our worst days won’t be all of our days, & Easter provides that hope!

In Tune: Confession and Repentance

Sin has a way of messing up so many things in our life, especially our connection to God. Before accepting the free gift of salvation, it’s what keeps us from a relationship with God. After accepting the free gift of salvation, sin can cause us to feel distant from God because we often feel guilty about what we did and think God must be mad at us. So we hide from God or are distance ourselves from Him. But Jesus didn’t go to the cross so we could have a cold distant relationship with our Heavenly Father. Repentance and confession are essential pieces to walk in a close relationship with God. 
Psalm 139:1-4; 23-24
Speaker: Aaron Patton

In Tune: Why We Worship

Have you ever heard a song that moved you? Whether it was the words or music itself, it just had a way of drawing you in so powerfully? Music is an incredible gift, and all throughout the Bible, God’s people have used music to declare how good God is. The songs we sing every Sunday aren’t just because we love music, but because God has given us worship through song as a means of growing closer in our relationship with Him.
2 Chronicles 20
Speaker: Josh Jones

In Tune: Prayer and Fasting

Have you ever felt like your connection with God could be better? Does it feel like things get in the way of you knowing God? Do you ever wonder if there is something you could do to have a closer relationship with God? You’re not alone! And the good news is, the Bible offers us an answer to those questions. Join us as we dig in to God’s word and dive deeper into knowing our great God.
One of the ways Scripture gives us to get in tune with God's heart is to fast and pray as we seek Him. Fasting is the practice of laying aside food and sometimes other things to create space for more prayer in our life. Join us as we discover the joy of seeking God through prayer and fasting.
Matthew 4:1-4
