We wanted to create a space where we could update you on news from around the church, information on upcoming events, follow up to a recent sermon.
Often you will find thoughts on a Sunday message or event stories from our life together as a church.
Your increased participation is a testament to your commitment and dedication to our church. May this level of intentionality continue so that our finances glorify God!...
Multiple churches serving under the name of Christ and partnering with the city and local businesses is a testament to the power of Christ's unifying gospel....
I hope your week is beginning by being warmed by the grace given to you in Jesus Christ! What a thought... God wants me to grow (uh-oh, that sounds like a work)…in grace! God's good intention for me and for you is to go deeper in the experience and knowledge of what we have been given in Jesus....

Have you noticed how certain themes of our live...
Keep ReadingWe concluded our series on building the local church by looking at 5 pledges, or commitments. Unlike a country club or association dues, building a local church calls for each part of the body to do its part, so that the whole body is built up. That can't be accomplished simply through giving, and it can't be accomplished if the body isn't functioning properly. Take some t...
Keep Reading19th century American evangelist D.L. Moody once said, "Soon you will read in the papers that Moody is dead. Don’t believe it, for in that moment I will be more alive than I have ever been." That's the glorious truth about heaven. Revelation 21:1-8 tells us that there is no better place than the new heavens and the new earth....

Keep ReadingHello Metro! Chip Chew our church Administrator, sent the link below to me. It seemed quite fitting in light of Hebrews 10:19-25. I hope it will spur us on, as we take to heart the call, to give ourselves to one another so that together we can be a church full of love and good works for the glory of God. Thank you for your prayers as I visit our friends in Bolivia this...
