Do I actually trust in the redeeming work of Christ? Or am I simply repeating what I have heard?

What is the core message of Christianity? God created. Humanity sinned. Christ came, died for our sins, and rose again, defeating sin and death.

This is the foundational truth of the Gospel, and it changes everything.

A prayer doesn’t save you. Our salvation is entirely the work of God. It is through His grace and power that He transforms our hearts, gives us new life, and brings us to Himself.

Learn why proclaiming the Gospel is paramount and how its truth transforms the way we live.

We’re worried about what people want to hear, not what they need.
Are we taking our faith too lightly?
This week's sermon through 2 Timothy 1:13-18 challenges believers to embrace the 'pattern of sound words' and the gospel we truly need.

GLOBAL IMPACT CONFERENCE 2026 | November 13–19

This isn’t a conference you simply attend. It’s one you step into.

Experience the nations in a whole new way through immersive environments, powerful stories, worship, prayer, food, and opportunities to see how God is at work across the nations.

Whether missions has been on your heart for years, or you’ve never really thought about your place in reaching the nations, this event is for you. And with experiences created for every generation, from our youngest kids to students and adults, there’s a place for your whole family to be part of it.

You’ll want to be here. Save the date now for a week designed to move us beyond simply hearing about the nations to experiencing them, and asking: Where is God sending me?

“...Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.” (Romans 10:18)

November 13-19, 2026
- November 13 - Worship and Prayer
- November 14 - Immersive Experience

Believe God. And as you believe God, you fan the flame of faith. And this is the encouragement: God will keep His people!

“35 And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; 38 therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” - Matthew 9:35-38 ESV

What a joy it is to see the Lord answer this prayer in our own church family.

Yesterday, we commissioned the Hand family as they go to take the hope of the gospel to those with little to no access to it. We praise God for His faithfulness in calling and sending laborers into His harvest.

Church family, join us in praying for the Hands. Pray that the Lord would strengthen them, sustain them, grant them boldness and wisdom, and bear much fruit through their faithful proclamation of Christ. May the Lord continue to raise up more laborers for the glory of His name among the nations.

Glorify. Grow. GO!

DISCIPLES MAKE DISCIPLES
Jesus calls every believer to make disciples, and Growth Groups are one of the main ways we grow in Christ together while helping others do the same. Whether you're a child, student, young adult, or adult, there's a place for you to connect, study God's Word, build meaningful relationships, and be equipped to follow Christ.

This August marks the start of a new season:
August 12: College Collective kicks off.
August 16: Kids Promotion Sunday, Adult Growth Groups begin new curriculum, and High School Growth Groups kick off.
August 19: Middle School Growth Groups return.

Now is a great time to get connected!

Looking for a Growth Group? Stop by the Next Steps area next Sunday, August 9, where Growth Group Coaches will be available to help you find the right fit.

AWANA Registration Now Open

📖 AWANA is a midweek discipleship program designed to help children build a deep and lasting faith rooted in God’s Word.

Each week, children from ages 2 through 5th grade gather for small-group time, engaging Bible lessons, and fun, purposeful activities. The goal of AWANA is not simply to teach Bible facts, but to help children grow in their understanding of the Gospel and what it means to follow Christ.

AWANA also serves as a discipleship tool for families. Spiritual growth is meant to happen beyond the church walls, and AWANA helps build a rhythm of learning and Scripture engagement at home. Children will be encouraged to work through lessons and memorize Scripture each week, helping them not only know the truth but trust in what God says about Himself, about them, and about the world He has made.

Registration is now open, and materials can be purchased online during the registration process. Space is limited, so we encourage you to sign up early and prepare for a season of growth, joy, and gospel-centered discipleship.

Who: Ages 2 – 5th Grade
Starts: September 2
When: Wednesdays, 6:15 – 7:30 PM

It's hard to believe camp was already a week ago. As students return to the rhythms of everyday life, we're praying the Lord would continue the work He began, that the seeds planted through His Word would take root, grow, and bear lasting fruit.

Students, may you continue to hold fast to Christ, love Him more deeply, and walk faithfully with Him day by day.

"With every breath, I long to follow Jesus
For He has said that He will bring me home
And day by day, I know He will renew me
Until I stand with joy before the throne."

HIGH SCHOOL GETAWAY 2026! 🌊📖🦁

Throughout camp, students were challenged to live with real courage found in Christ alone. As we studied God’s Word together, we were reminded that the Lord is our Warrior who fights for His people, keeps His people, and gives us everything we need to glorify Him by standing firm in a world that opposes Him.

From worship, preaching, and growth groups to reflection time, late nights, beach afternoons, tournaments, and conversations that will continue long after camp, we are grateful for the ways the Lord worked in the lives of our students.

Now that we have returned home to everyday life, please join us in praying that the truths they learned would take deep root. Pray that they would seek Christ daily through His Word, walk in wisdom and discernment, resist the fleeting pleasures of this world, and live with steadfast courage for the sake of the gospel.

We’re also incredibly thankful for every person who faithfully poured into our students this week!

You make time for what matters.

If you’re in Christ, discipleship matters.
Be discipled. Make disciples.
Grow as you help others grow.
