A Passionate People Serving A Compassionate God

09/05/2026

If you were asked to draw a picture of love, what would it look like?

We would probably all draw hearts. Perhaps, we might make an attempt to draw a couple smiling and holding hands after fifty years of marriage. But maybe for you, it would be a parent staying up all night with a sick child. We all have an image in our minds of what real love looks like.

But what about a love that keeps showing up after being betrayed? A love that keeps giving after being ignored and forgotten. A love that pays a price it never had to pay, just to bring someone home.

That kind of love feels almost impossible to imagine, yet it's exactly the kind of love God shows us in an unforgettable Old Testament story, one that points us straight to one of the most familiar verses in all of Scripture. For God so loved the world.

This Sunday, we're tracing the life of the prophet Hosea and asking what it means that our God pursues us with a love we could never earn and don't deserve.

Come worship with us this Sunday as we sing, pray, and hear an inspired message from God's Word: FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, the picture of God's Love from the book of Hosea.

Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.
1004 Pryor St. E, Athens, AL 35611

We look forward to seeing you!

So, what's your life centered around?

We all build our lives around something. Career, image, comfort, keeping it all together. It's easy to put ourselves at the center and never even realize it.

This Sunday, we're looking at a story about a few young folks who were thrown into a world built to make much of everything except God, but still chose instead to make much of Him, no matter the cost.
Join us and see what it looks like to live a life centered on God

Got plans tomorrow?

Jesse Woodby plans to speak on “Finding God in Unexpected Places” from the book of Ezekiel.

We’d love to have you join us tomorrow as we worship God together and consider the words of one of His prophets.

So, what's the plan?

Life has a way of throwing seasons at us we didn't sign up for. Waiting, uncertainty, wondering if things will ever change. Sound familiar?

Centuries ago, God's people asked the exact same question, in circumstances far greater than most of us will ever face.

This Sunday, we're stepping into one of the most quoted and perhaps misunderstood promises from Jeremiah 29:11. What does it actually mean when God says He has plans for you? The answer might surprise you, and might be exactly what you need to hear right now.

Come worship with us as we sing, pray, and hear an inspired message from God's Word: GOD HAS BIG PLANS FOR YOU

When: Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.
Where: 1004 Pryor St. E, Athens, AL 35611

Don't give up!

Life has a way of wearing us down. It's full of disappointment, heartache, seasons where hope feels hard to hold onto. Centuries ago, God's people felt the same way.

This Sunday, we'll step into the words of the prophet Jeremiah. This is a man who stayed faithful through some of the darkest days imaginable, and never gave up. His story reminds us that God hasn't given up on us either.

Come worship with us as we sing, pray, and spend time in God's Word together.

Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.

We'd love for you to join us.

Will the world always be this way?

Wars. Division. Broken relationships. Bad news. Heartache. Even our own failures remind us that something isn't right.

Deep down, we all long for a day when wrongs are made right, pain gives way to peace, and hope triumphs over despair. But where do we find confidence that a day like this is really coming?

This Sunday, we'll open the Book of Isaiah with the first of two sermons and uncover a message that has given God's people hope for centuries. It's a timely reminder that no matter how dark the present may seem, God is still working toward something far greater.

Come worship with us this Sunday as we sing, pray, remember our Savior around the Lord's Table, and spend time in God's Word together.

Something is missing...

Have you ever had everything you thought you wanted… and still felt like something was missing? That empty ache. That restlessness. That sense that you were made for more than this life can offer.

The writer of Ecclesiastes felt it too. He had wealth, wisdom, pleasure, success, and yet he writes about a longing nothing on earth could satisfy.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 "He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart..."

There's a hole in all of our hearts. And this Sunday, we're talking about what it takes to fill it. This isn't a message for "someone else." This is a message for YOU!

Come worship with us this Sunday. We will sing and pray together. Take communion to remember the body and the blood of our Savior. And have a message from Ecclesiastes called, I HAVE A HOLE IN MY HEART.

Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.
Our address: 1004 Pryor St E, Athens, AL 35611

We would love you to join us.

You have a path to choose.

Proverbs 4:18-19 says plainly: the path of the righteous is like the dawn, it keeps getting brighter until full day. But the path of the wicked is deep darkness, people don't even know what's tripping them up. Doesn't matter if you're 8 or 80. The path you're on isn't an accident, it's a choice. And you get to choose it again every single day.

Join us this Sunday for worship and a message, we're talking about it in a message: 2 PATHS - Lessons from Proverbs.

Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.
1004 Pryor St E, Athens, AL 35611

We would love to see you there.

We've just finished reading through Psalms together, and before we begin our study of Proverbs, we're going to take a look at one theme that runs throughout the Wisdom Books:

The Fear of the Lord.

If that title makes you a little scared... you're exactly the person we hope will join us Sunday. 😊

What does it really mean to fear the Lord?

Is it about living in fear of an angry God? Or is it something much deeper?

This Sunday we'll trace that theme through Job, Psalms, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes and see how it ultimately points us to Jesus Christ.

One word that says it all.

What is your go-to when it is time to celebrate? What do you say when something so good happens that you just cannot hold it in? Is it a loud "YES"? Is it "Let's go"? Is it "Oh my goodness"? Maybe you are a fist pumper. Maybe you are a happy crier. Maybe you just throw your hands up and let it out however it comes.

We all have a moment like that. A moment where one word or one sound is the only thing that fits.

The writers of the Book of Psalms used a word for that moment, too. And this Sunday we are going to talk about it.

Whether you have been with us every week through our journey in the Psalms or you are joining us for the very first time this Sunday, we want you here. Because we are coming to the grand finale of this series. And the word we have been building toward for weeks is one of the most significant and celebratory words in all of Scripture.

HALLELUJAH!

This is not just a "church word". It is a declaration. It is a response to the call to Praise Yahweh! It runs through the final chapters of the Book of Psalms like the beat of a drum getting louder and louder until the very last verse of the very last psalm calls on everything that has breath to join in.

And this Sunday, we are going to find out why that word means everything. Why it's BIGGER than any celebration this world has to offer. And because of Jesus, it is the one word that every human heart was created to say.

Come worship with us this Sunday and join us for a message from the book of Psalms called, HALLELUJAH - A CALL TO JOIN IN THE PRAISE

Worship begins at 9:30 a.m.
1004 Pryor St E, Athens, AL 35611

We would love to see you this Sunday! Come ready to celebrate!
