True potential isn't held back by a lack of ability, but by an unwillingness to surrender to God.

*Judas walked alongside Jesus, yet his hidden sin ultimately defined him.

*Saul was chosen and anointed, yet his refusal to submit led him astray.

*Lucifer possessed beauty and authority, yet pride paved the way for his downfall.

Talent may spark opportunities, and anointing can draw crowds, but it's character that keeps our hearts aligned with God's purpose.

When correction comes, stay grounded….When pride beckons, stay humble….When obedience demands sacrifice, stay faithful.

For God seeks not just the gifted, but those whose hearts remain faithful.

Do we magnify the Lord's name in every moment?

Do our deeds reflect the beauty of our faith?

Do we walk in strength and leadership?

Do our words uplift and inspire others to see Christianity in a brighter light?

Do we spread the Good News to those around us, from loved ones to those we meet along the way?

Do our hearts overflow with praise, giving God the glory in every conversation and prayer?

Let today be the day we reflect on our journey and allow our walk with Christ to empower us to share His love.

As uncertainty clouds your path, remember that God is actively setting into place a solution, even when the outcome seems impossible.

As you wait for God’s timing:

Pray with conviction
Trust in His plan
Take things one step at a time

Today's challenges can become tomorrow's triumphs.

“Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.”

Matthew 25:35

“For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me. “

The 1st Monday of every month, our church has the honor of feeding approximately 65-75 people in our Outreach ministry. These photos are a snippet of our volunteers at work. We are so thankful to have the ability and the opportunity to serve others.

People in general are so appreciative of the goodness of others. They are so very thankful for any act of kindness, to be given food, to be prayed over and to just be “seen”.

We don’t know their stories or why they are without hope, without funds to build a better life or the history of their long term addiction. We don’t need to know. We just need to see them and serve them.

To be able to share the Gospel with people and to give them hope, that’s our ministry and our mission.

Wherever we go.
Whatever we do.
Be the light.

What a fabulous night on the hill. If you missed this, you missed a special night of Worship music that gave most of us chills….it was that good. Food. Fellowship. Praise Songs.✔️

There is something wonderful that transpires when the Lord is exalted by His people. Oh my the presence of the Lord was in this sanctuary.

“Thank you” to Josh Rucker, Pastor Rich Powell, Elder Rick Brown and all who worked to make this evening happen in such a spectacular way.

We will let you all know when the next night of Praise Worship in Song will be taking place.

“Come and see that God is so Good”

Tomorrow night is going to be so wonderful at Hillview. Please join us for an evening of food, fellowship and songs of worship. 5:30 until we are out of praise and worship songs. Bring your family, your friends and your neighbors as we spend time in worship by singing our praises to God. We hope to see you there. Please share this with anyone who might like to join us. All ages are welcome.

Hi everyone. This Sunday night we are inviting our community and families, friends and neighbors to join us on the Hill for a night of Praise Songs. Our own Josh Rucker will be our music leader for this wonderful night.

We will have hot dogs, chips, cookies and ice cream with toppings starting still 5:30. We will fellowship as we eat and then move right into our Praise music.

The more people who attend will add that many more voices who are singing praise to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Please join us and bring a friend, family or a neighbor. This is for all ages and we hope to hear those sweet children’s voices loudly singing as well.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Hillview for this wonderful musical night.

This Sunday. 5:30 until ???
Because we never want a clock to cut short singing Praise to our Savior.

Children of all ages are welcome. So many of our children in this day and time know Praise songs as well as they know their sweet nursery rhymes. We are a family integrated church and believe that all children are our future leaders, teachers, pastors, husbands and wives, fathers and mothers. Biblical truth is taught to all ages. We honor these young people the way God instructed us to do.

We are so excited for our praise night. Come eat, fellowship and raise our voices to the glory of Christ. 🙏🏻

In the depths of life's trials, unwavering faith doesn't mean we'll avoid struggles. It means that we can face them head-on with God's presence.

David, Job, and Elijah exemplified profound devotion, yet their journeys were marked by sorrow, fear, and darkness.

Walking closely with God doesn't exempt us from emotional turmoil. In these moments we find that faith is tested and strengthened.

Notice how these faithful servants didn't turn away from God in their lowest moments; instead, they turned to Him with their pain.

If you're struggling, remember that your faith isn't disqualified by doubt or hardship – it's strengthened by leaning on God, even in the darkest valleys.

Life is meant to be filled with the Word of God. When we understand this, our fears, doubts and feelings of doom will dissipate and our strength is renewed.

Lean into Christ, especially when a season of life seems unbearable. He will ground you and cover your heart in a calming peace.

Isaiah 41:10
