When our hearts are troubled by life's challenges, Jesus offers a profound solution in John 14. Rather than placing our trust in unreliable sources like relationships, circumstances, or our own understanding, we're called to place our faith firmly in God. True peace comes not from controlling our situation, but from trusting in Jesus's completed work and unchanging character. By grasping gospel truth, speaking truth to our emotions, and regularly preaching truth to our minds, we can experience a peace that transcends our circumstances.
Some find meaning in the traditions that point to Jesus but never believe in Jesus personally. To live this way is to live in darkness. Come to the Light. John 6
Finding our life's meaning in material things never materializes. Jesus calls us to find our identity purpose in Him.John 6
Be salty and stay lit so that the world may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.Matthew 5:13-16
We drift toward solitude and discouragement. The gospel draws us into relationships that inspire and encourage.Hebrews 10:19-25
A church united doctrinally and functionally, but not relationally, cannot effectively cultivate the unwavering hope of Jesus.1 Corinthians 13
Revelation 5:1-14Heaven is an ongoing celebration of Christ's work to unite people from all walks of life together in Him. That's what Sunday should be too.
God’s generosity toward us in the person of Jesus leads to generosity from us for belief in Jesus.
The hope of Jesus results in our being rooted in God's truth and resting in God's peace. Nothing is more grounding than being grounded in the Word.
Our mission is to cultivate the unwavering hope of Jesus in every generation.
Rooted people reach people. For the next five years, we envision a church rooted in the unwavering hope of Jesus and reaching others with the same.
There is nothing we could do that would ever lead God to love us any less … for him to have regret for His sympathy for us and, therefore, change His mind regarding our eternity.
If your hopes have dried out … if you’ve run into dead end after dead end … if you are empty, unfulfilled, dissatisfied, or dried up ... the Lord has an invitation for you. You are just the kind of person He is after.
Jesus didn’t just sympathize once in coming, dying, and resurrecting. He continually sympathizes with ongoing mercy and grace in our times of need. Therefore, let us draw near.
Jesus Christ came into the world to confirm that God is just who He said He was on Mount Sinai—“a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness, keeping steadfast love for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin.”
The kingdom of heaven is leading to an end in which His citizens will be sorted out and separated from those with whom they currently reside. The basis of the sorting will be by fruit that is illustrative of a relationship with Jesus by grace through faith.
The kingdom of heaven is worthy. The loss of anything is not sad when you gain the kingdom in its place.
