Upcoming Sermon Series
Eye Witness Accounts (March 16 - April 20)
At the center of history and Christianity is the belief that a man claiming to be God rose from the dead.
Some of us have held that belief since childhood, but now find ourselves questioning if it's true. Others are exploring Christianity and trying to decide if we can believe such an outlandish idea.
But none of us were there to see the resurrected Jesus.
So why should we believe this story is true?
In this series, we’ll look at the people who actually knew Jesus, unpack their stories, and discover how their encounter with the resurrected Jesus not only transformed their lives but all of history. In examining their stories, God just might change ours.
March 16 - God Knows Your Name - Mary Magdalene (John 20:1-18)
March 23 - Doubting What You Don’t See - Thomas (John 20:24-31)
March 30 - The One Jesus Loved - John (John 19:26-20:10)
April 6 - Losing Faith and Turning From God - Judas (Matthew 26:1-27:10)
April 13 - From Despair To Recognition - Disciples on Road To Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35)
April 20 - From Failure to Restoration - Peter (Luke 22:54-62, Acts 2)
Blueprint - Following God's Design For Relationships (April 27 - June 1)
There is nothing like a meal with close friends, a relaxing evening together with family, or the thrill of new found love.
But what was once so close and full of joy may now be causing you anxious thoughts, sleepless nights, grief, anger, and sadness. It shouldn’t be that way.
God has designed us with a need for relationships, but if we don’t follow His design, our relationships will bring more sorrow than joy.
In this series, we’ll look at God’s design for our relationships, and the plans we can follow to experience relationships that bring us life.

May 4 - Why Aren't You Listening? (James 1:19)
