Today we celebrate the goodness of God! Join us as we reflect upon the verses in Matthew 27 telling of the brutal trial, crucifixion, and death of Jesus Christ. Matthew’s vivid description invites us to see Jesus' crucifixion through the eyes of those who witnessed it firsthand: the governor, the soldier, and the crowd. Listen to our newest message, Opinionated, to hear how these accounts reveal the true identity of Jesus Christ.

In the closing words of Jesus' final teaching before His crucifixion, He paints the picture of a shepherd separating sheep from goats, by which He teaches us a critical lesson: our faith reveals our identity - and determines our destination. Our current series, What Now: How Tomorrow Shapes Today, concludes with a hard look at our own faith in the anticipation of Christ’s return. Listen with us to this final message, The Shepherd King, as we prepare for that glorious day!

Many of us have found ourselves asking, “What could possibly happen next?” We’ve lost our sense of control over the future and don’t know how the events of the world will play out.

For many, a key motivation in what we choose to do every minute of our day is to avoid discomfort. Our culture tries its hardest to escape any kind of suffering.

Today, as we continue through our series, What Now: How Tomorrow Shapes Today, we’re hit with the hard truth that suffering is inevitable, especially as Christians. But we have a Savior who also suffered and overcame it all for us. Listen with us in our newest message, Don’t Be Surprised.

Christians often use the phrase, "born again," but do we really understand what it means? In our culture, we've come to relate the idea of birth with a new beginning, a fresh start, a grand renewal.

Listen with us in our newest message, Born into God’s Family, to discover how 1 John 5 reveals that when we become a child of God, we believe in Jesus, love others, and have overcome the world!
