Influence at its core is relational. It has to do with the flux and flow of the exchange of healthy life. In this message, Pastor Joel Hilton speaks about this key element of influence, about seeing value in the people closest to us, and reinforcing relationship by adding new materials and support.

The first place for us to prepare the way of the Lord is within our own heart. As we think on who God is now, keeping record of the good rather than focusing on what we have done in the past, we are testifying to the world and to Heaven that God is alive and Jesus is coming again. Let us focus on who HE IS and as we do, we will be transformed more and more into His image day by day.

Dr. Mike Hutchings brings a message to tell you that you are not defined by your history.

We must believe in the resurrection historically and we must believe in the resurrection personally, but we also must experience the resurrection in our every day life. It’s not just about what happened in the past, but the new life that we have every day through Jesus. Through Him we have hope. Through Him we have joy. In this Resurrection Day message, Pastor Steve reminds us to not only look back, but to stir up the gift of God that is within us every single day.

Helen Keller said, It's a terrible thing to see and have no vision. In this message centered around Proverbs 16, verse 9, Pastor Joel Hilton addresses the frustrations that come from lack of clarity.

God is present everywhere, however, that does not mean that He doesn't want to be invited into what you're doing. He wants to partner with us in life and when He's invited, He wants to give the very best. In this message based on John chapter 2, Pastor Steve describes how Jesus was moved by faith to alleviate lack, cure the sick, and answer prayer.

Do you realize that God is passionate? He is enthusiastic, intense, zealous, and attentive. He is not a stoic being without emotion. Since we are made in His image and likeness, these are all traits that every person should also carry. Likewise, just as God has desires, so should we. In this message by Pastor Joel Hilton, learn the power and need for desire, the health of your ability to desire, and the process of how desire is to be developed, cultivated, and stewarded from conception to fulfillment.

This Memorial Day weekend, Pastor Steve encourages a community where we create and cultivate a culture of honor inside AND outside the church.

There is a hymn that begins, "I love to tell the story of unseen things above, of Jesus and his glory, of Jesus and his love." These words remind us that the goodness of God should never grow old in our lives or our thoughts. It should be a generational legacy of telling of His goodness; it is a testimony, which evokes the power of repetition. It is important to remember and rehearse these things and to meditate on a God who was, is, and will always be good.

The steadfast love of the Lord never fails. In this message from Rebecca Hilton, learn how God demonstrates His great faithfulness time and time again because of the vast love that He has for you. Be encouraged to recount all of the ways He has been faithful in your life and empower a greater testimony as we beckon Heaven to do it again!

We are children of God made in His image and designed to be like Him. If He is light, we also are called to be light. If He creates, we also are called to create. In this week’s sermon, hear how creation is voice activated and be challenged to ask yourself, What am I bringing into creation. We hope you enjoy this message, by Pastor Steven Hilton.
