Can we truly love God if we choose not to love others?

Jesus didn't leave room for exceptions when He said, “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Not just the people we like. Not just the people who think like us. EVERYONE.

In Matthew 22:34-46, Jesus reminds us that loving God and loving our neighbors are inseparable. Our faith isn't just about what we believe - it's about how we love. ❤️

✨ What if experiencing the glorious presence of God begins with how we treat one another?

🎥 Watch the full sermon, “THE GLORIOUS PRESENCE OF GOD,” on our YouTube channel!

Jesus came to bring hope, love, and light into the world. We're called to do the same.

Whose life can you brighten along the way?

Isaiah 45:1–6 | Isaiah 49:5–6

A short clip of Rev. Walt Shelton on the "Anointed One(s)".

Being chosen by God isn’t just about who we are - it’s about what we’re called to do. 🙏

From Cyrus in Isaiah 45 to God’s servants in Isaiah 49, we see that anointing always comes with purpose.

“Jesus’s vocation is our vocation.” His mission to embody love, pursue justice, and bring hope to others is now ours to live out.

Are we celebrating the calling, or answering it?

📺 Watch the full sermon on YouTube () to explore what it truly means to be chosen, anointed, and sent.

The worship of God on the Twentieth-first Sunday after Pentecost. Walt Shelton preaches "Anointed One(s)". Chris Vineis, Director of Music, will perform special music entitled "Your Grace is Enough"
