What happens in our homes doesn’t stay in our homes, it shapes the next generation.

This week in our Home Sweet Home series, we looked at Deuteronomy 6:4–6 and what it means to build a faith that actually lives where we live. Not just on Sundays. Not just in moments when it’s easy. But in the everyday rhythm of our homes.

Because faith isn’t primarily transferred through information, it’s formed through repetition, relationship, and presence.

If we want to impact the next generation, it doesn’t start with a program. It starts with us.

Our words.
Our habits.
Our homes.

Take a listen to this week’s message and lean into what it could look like to make your home a place where faith is real and lived out.

We have a role to impact the next generation. Join us as we dive into how to do that.

The first ever Ridge Run was a success. 👟🔥

Yesterday was such a fun morning for our church and community. Seeing people of all ages show up, run, walk, cheer each other on, and spend time together was incredible.

Huge thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. We’re grateful for a church that loves being together both inside and outside the building.

Safe to say the Ridge Run will be back. 🙌

Yesterday in our Home Sweet Home series, we talked about what it means to build our homes on the foundation of Christ. 🏠❤️

In Matthew 7:24–27, Jesus reminds us that storms will come, but homes built on Him can stand strong. Our prayer is that our homes would become the safest places on earth, not because they’re perfect, but because Jesus is at the center.

Yesterday was special as we celebrated the baptism of Ellie Chapman!

There is nothing better than seeing someone publicly declare their faith in Jesus and take their next step. We’re thankful for what God is doing in Ellie’s life and honored to celebrate this moment with her family, friends, and church family.

“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” — 2 Corinthians 5:17

Church family, help us celebrate Ellie and all that God has ahead for her! 💙
