Join us for the second message in our "Seeker's Reward" series, where we delve into the profound encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman in John 4. As part of our annual "Seek" season, this message explores the theme "God Is Also Seeking," highlighting how God desires true worshipers who balance spirit and truth. Discover how spiritual hunger and passion for God's presence can transform our lives and lead us to become ambassadors of His love. Through the lens of this powerful biblical narrative, we are reminded that God is not seeking the most talented or qualified, but those with hearts devoted to Him. Be encouraged to pursue a deeper relationship with God, fueled by gratitude for His eternal gifts and a zeal for His kingdom. Join us as we align our hearts with God's purpose and seek to be true worshipers in spirit and truth.

This weekend as we begin a new year, we also start a new series called "Seek". Pastor Jon highlights the importance of intentionally pursuing the heart of God at the start of the new year, and emphasizes that seeking God brings rewards, not in material terms but in the deeper knowledge and intimacy with Him. The process of seeking requires spiritual hunger and a willingness to develop that appetite through prayer, scripture, and communal worship. Pastor Jon elaborates on the differences between being a seeker and a wanderer, defining seekers as those driven by spiritual hunger and thirst. Seeking God is not about legalism but rather a genuine desire to know Him, as He is always available and waiting to draw closer to those who seek Him. Together lets embrace this opportunity for deeper communion as we embark on this journey over the next 21 days!

As we conclude the Gift Series, this weekends message focuses on the "Gift of His Peace," drawing from Luke 2 and Isaiah 9, where Jesus is referred to as the "Prince of Peace." Pastor Jon delves into the concept of biblical peace, explaining that true peace is not the absence of troubles but the presence of God in our lives, even during difficult times. We are reminded how to experience this peace through vulnerable prayer, thanksgiving, and focusing on God's promises.

This weekend in the second message of “The Gift” series Pastor Jon focused on the themes of waiting for Jesus' arrival and the meaning of Emmanuel, which translates to "God with us." He emphasized the importance of recognizing that God is always present with us, never leaving or forsaking us, regardless of our shortcomings or struggles. We are reminded of the need for intentionality in our relationship with God, and the importance of creating space for His presence in our lives. Ultimately through faith in Jesus, we can experience a deep and abiding relationship with God, filled with grace and freedom from shame.

This weekend we begin a new Christmas series titled "The Gift," focusing on the significance of Jesus' incarnation and the promises associated with his coming. Pastor Jon emphasizes the importance of waiting on God during the Advent season, illustrating this with the biblical accounts of figures like Joseph and Simeon, who waited patiently, watchfully, and trustfully for the fulfillment of God's promises. We are reminded and encouraged that while waiting can be difficult, it is a time for spiritual growth and preparation and a time to renew our confidence in God's faithfulness, trusting that even in seasons of waiting, God is at work for our good.

This weekend was the final week of the series, and Pastor Tim Matthews delivered a powerful sermon emphasizing that Jesus ultimately wins over evil and the devil. He explored biblical passages, highlighting God's promise of victory through Jesus, who was sent to destroy the works of the enemy. The message reminds us to engage in spiritual warfare with faith, repentance, and unity within the church as a supportive family. Ultimately, Pastor Tim encouraged us as believers to embrace our victory in Christ and seek His strength in our battles.
