This Sunday – The Costly Yes– August 16 2026

SUNDAY WORSHIP
IN-PERSON SERVICEs: 9:30 & 11:00 AM
FACEBOOK LIVE & YOUTUBE: 9:30

THIS WEEK:
Levi Matteson
Lead Pastor
The Costly Yes
Ruth 4:1-22

You know how it goes. You're out in the sun -- laughing, living, not thinking about anything except how good the day is. Then you go inside. And the pain hits. You didn't feel it happening. You were having too good a time. But the sun was doing its work the whole time. Some of life's hardest seasons are exactly like that. Things were fine. And then you went inside. And suddenly you couldn't ignore what the heat had already done. This summer we're walking through the book of Ruth -- the story of a woman who got burned by life and had to figure out what to do with the damage. If you've ever been blindsided by something you didn't see coming, this is for you. Because here's the thing about a sunburn: you don't heal it by going back outside. Healing finds you when you finally are covered up.

☀️ Today's the Day! ☀️

Join us this morning for a special Church at the Beach service at 10:00 AM at Chassell Township Centennial Park!

We'll gather for worship, celebrate life change through baptism, and enjoy a church picnic afterward. The church is providing the main dish, just bring your own drinks and a side or dessert to share if you're able.

It's going to be a wonderful morning of worship, fellowship, and celebrating what God is doing in the lives of our church family. We hope to see you there!

Ruth had no guarantees, no backup plan, and nothing to offer. Yet she walked in obedience and God showed up in a way she never expected. Real faith isn't making deals with God. It's trusting the One who already ruled in your favor.

You think you're asking for scraps, but God is already arranging abundance. He's not limited by what you think you need. He knows you intimately and He will show up in ways that go beyond anything you could ask or even imagine.

You didn't earn it. You can't afford it. But God paid the price anyway. He sent His Son to redeem you, not because you had it together, but because He loves you that much.
