In Song of Solomon, we’re given a warning to "catch the little foxes that spoil the vineyards."

When a relationship is blossoming, it requires deliberate protection. Real damage rarely happens all at once. Usually, it’s the small, daily habits that slowly erode our closeness over time.

It’s the habit of constantly looking at a phone while your spouse is talking.
It’s a bit of casual sarcasm.
It’s interrupting before they can finish a sentence.
It’s keeping score or using silence as a weapon.

One interrupted conversation doesn't feel like a crisis, but a pattern of them builds a wall. Small hurts need honest conversations before they turn into deep divides.

Don't let the little things quietly steal the joy out of your home.

Charlotte and her dad, Stephen, met with Pastor Alan regarding her desire to accept Jesus into her heart and be baptized.

Pastor gave her a little workbook to fill out, and she asked Jesus into her heart and has now been baptized!

Church family, join us in celebrating this new life in Christ!

Egypt Mission Trip Recap 🌍

Our ladies are back from Egypt, where they reconnected with old friends, built new relationships, and ministered to Egyptian and Sudanese women, children, and families of children with special needs. They shared their testimonies, led self-care and arts & crafts classes, and even performed skits.

Through every conversation and every prayer, they were reminded that the Gospel reaches across every culture and every border.

We're so thankful for the hearts that said yes to going, serving, and sharing the love of Jesus. What a gift to be part of what God is doing around the world!

Hey Church Family!

I've been thinking and praying a lot about what God is doing in our student ministry.

One of my biggest prayers this year has been that we would see God move in the lives of students. That students who are far from Him would come to know Jesus, that those who know Him would grow deeper in their faith, and that our students would have a heart to reach their friends with the Gospel.

I really believe God wants to use our church to make a difference in the lives of this next generation, and I don't want us to miss the opportunities He's given us.

I've been reminded of Andrew in John 1:41–42:
"He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, 'We have found the Messiah' (which means Christ). And He brought him to Jesus."

Those last few words have really stuck with me. He brought him to Jesus.

Andrew had met Jesus, and he wanted his brother to know Him too. He had no idea what God would do through Peter's life. He just knew he needed to bring him to Jesus.

I think about the students who walk through our doors every week, and even more about the ones who haven't yet. Every one of them has a story. Some are hurting, some are searching, and some may have never really heard the Gospel. And I can't help but think about what God could do in their lives if someone simply took the time to invite them.

That's why HYPEFEST on Wednesday, October 28, at 5:30 PM means so much to me. We're going to have an incredible night with inflatables, a costume contest, prizes, a silent disco, and plenty of fun. But all of that is really just an opportunity to get students here so we can love them, build relationships, and most importantly, point them to Jesus.

I would love for our whole church to get behind this night. Pray with us that God would prepare hearts and change lives. Invite the students and families you know. And if you're able, come serve with us. You don't have to be a student ministry volunteer to make a difference in a student's life.

More than anything, I want us to be a church that loves this next generation enough to do whatever it takes to reach them. Thank you for loving our students and believing in what God can do through their lives. I'm grateful we get to do this together!
