On Sunday, we began our summer sermon series, Miracles of Jesus, by exploring the story of Jesus healing a paralyzed man.

As Pastor Josh reflected on this familiar passage, we were invited to consider not only the miracle itself, but the faith, community, and persistence that surrounded it. Through the actions of people willing to carry someone in need, we are reminded that God often works through the people around us—offering hope, healing, and grace in ways we may not expect.

The miracles of Jesus are more than extraordinary events from long ago. They reveal God's compassion, power, and desire to meet people where they are. As we begin this series together, we invite you to reflect on where you see God's presence at work in your own life and community.

We invite you to watch this week's service and join us as we journey through the Miracles of Jesus this summer.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

On Sunday, Pastor Josh continued our series, The People God Uses, through Daniel 3 and the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

As the sermon explored the themes of idols, empire, and faith, we were invited to reflect on the things that shape our trust and attention in everyday life. What does it look like to follow God when faith may cost us something? What happens when certainty gives way to trust?

Through the powerful words, “But if not…,” Daniel 3 reminds us that faith is not built on guarantees or outcomes, but on a deep trust in God even in the unknown.

We invite you to watch this week’s service and reflect on where God may be calling you toward deeper faithfulness and trust.

On Sunday, Pastor Josh continued our series, The People God Uses, through the story of Miriam in Exodus 2:1–10.

In a world shaped by power and influence, Miriam’s story reminds us that God often works through people on the margins—through attentiveness, courage, and quiet acts of faithfulness. Even before we fully know who we are becoming, God is already at work through us.

As we reflect on the ways we each stand on the edge of influence in our everyday lives, we invite you to watch this week’s service and consider where God may be calling you to notice, respond, and trust.

On Sunday, we began our new series, The People God Uses, with the story of Nehemiah. As Pastor Mandie shares his story, we’re invited to consider how God works through ordinary people—meeting us where we are and calling us forward in faith.

Nehemiah’s journey points us toward a simple rhythm: to pray about where God is leading, to prepare our hearts to respond, and to act on what God is calling us to do—even when we don’t have the full picture.

We invite you to watch this week’s service and reflect on where God might be calling you.
