We mark our 6th birthday with Pastors Lorenzo Smith, Ryan Smith, and Isaac Brickner reflecting on where we’re at six years in and using our current series in Proverbs to call our church family to live out the four core identities of a disciple as responsible followers of Jesus, responsible family members, responsible stewards, and responsible disciple-makers.

From the series "Wisdom's Way". Proverbs 16:32, 25:28, 14:29, 17:27, 4:8 Pastor Ryan Smith opens the back-half of our series in Proverbs: Wisdom's Way by looking at wisdom's chief virtue: self-control. Apart from self-control, our attempts toward the good life depicted in Proverbs will rarely amount to more than the cul-de-sac of desire, aspiration, failure, and shame. In examining Proverbs 16:32, 25:28, 14:29, 17:27, 14:8 and other Proverbs, we begin to see a practical invitation into a life of Wisdom's Way with willpower. Sermon Notes Here

From the series "Wisdom's Way". Proverbs 9:1-18 Over the first eight chapters of Proverbs, the book has depicted us as a young bachelor and Wisdom and Folly as two beautiful women.

Who will you give your life to? Sermon Notes Here

From the series "Wisdom's Way". Proverbs 8:1-36 Pastor Ryan Smith takes us further in our Wisdom's Way series as we look at Proverbs 8.

From the series "Wisdom's Way". Proverbs 5:1-7:27 Pastor Ryan Smith continues our series, "Wisdom's Way: Finding the Good Life in Proverbs" as we look over the speech of Proverbs 5-7, where a warning of "the forbidden woman" is expansively and vividly detailed. How does this speech connect to last week's invitation to "marry Lady Wisdom" as the way to life? And what instruction can we find in this speech not just for our sexuality but for all of our lives?
