Peacemaker | I HAVE DECIDED In this season, we find ourselves living in a time of limitations and restrictions, where decisions are often made for us and our options are few. It's easy to struggle with feelings of fear and futility, but we are far from powerless; our choices are still our own. This week, Pastor Kyle will look at the concept of being a peacemaker. Key Passage: Romans 12:14-21 August 9, 2020 Kyle Zimmerman

I HAVE DECIDED In this season, we find ourselves living in a time of limitations and restrictions, where decisions are often made for us and our options are few. It's easy to struggle with feelings of fear and futility, but we are far from powerless; our choices are still our own. In this series, we will talk about living biblically, and how we can take what we've been given and live a life that glorifies God while bringing hope to those around us. Key Passage: Hebrews 11:6 August 2, 2020 Matthew Cork

BECOMING ON IN CHRIST We hear it a lot: We are living in unprecedented times. And to some degree that's true. Who could envision a summer where beaches are closed, travel is limited, and people vacation in their back yards? This weekend Matthew offers some encouragement taken from the example of the early Church. Key Passage: Ephesians 4 July 26, 2020 Matthew Cork

Training Our Minds | THRIVE Jesus offers genuine contentment in all situations at all times. Key Passage Philippians 4:10-20 July 19, 2020 Kyle Zimmerman

Be Anxious For Nothing | THRIVE While anxiety may continue to grip us in this season, we as Christians believe that anxiety doesn’t have to be the only answer. We have other choices: prayer and thanksgiving. Key Passage: Philippians 4:1-7 July 12, 2020 Matthew Cork

Losing Everything, Gaining Everything | THRIVE Today we see how everything is nothing compared to knowing Jesus Christ. This is the true key to thriving no matter what. Key Verses: Philippians 3:4-11 July 05, 2020 Chris Ward

Strength Through Humility | THRIVE Humility in the Christian life is a source of joy and strength for the believer. Key Passage: Philippians 2:1-11 June 28, 2020 Kyle Zimmerman

Father's Day 2020 This week, Matthew Cork is joined by Chris Ward and Jorge Norena, to talk about their experiences as Dads, and learn what the Bible says about being fathers. Key Verses: Deuteronomy 6:1-9 June 21, 2020

God Will Use This for Good | THRIVE Part of the reason why Paul had such joy in his difficult situation was because of an overwhelming confidence that he had, that no matter what he went through, it was going to work for the good of the gospel. As we lift our gaze off of our individual circumstances, and place them on what God is doing in this season, we get a picture of the bigger purpose in all of it. There is always a bigger picture going on, and we have two options: resist it or join with God in it. Key Verses: Philippians 1:12-26 June 14, 2020 Matthew Cork

Honor One Another This weekend we take a break from our new weekend series "THRIVE" for an important conversation about racism and injustice. Rev. Kenneth Curry, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church, will join Pastor Matthew for a candid discussion about the current state of our country, equality, and racism, as well as what each of us individually, and as the Church, can do. June 7, 2020 Matthew Cork, with Rev. Kenneth Curry

Joy Is Possible | THRIVE For the believer in Jesus, our ability to experience true “joy” is completely independent of our circumstances. As we face these uncertain times, not dissimilar to Paul when he wrote Philippians, we find that joy is possible--if we know where to look for it. Key Passage: Overview of Philippians May 31, 2020 Matthew Cork

God Gives Grace To The Humble | UNSHAKABLE HOPE "Those who walk in pride, God is able to humble. But those who walk in humility, God is able to use." -Max Lucado Key Passage: Daniel 4 May 24, 2020 Kyle Zimmerman
