Finding Love … Apart from Marriage
Explore the myth that marriage is what completes us. Discover how the church can function as a spiritual family, redefining relationships beyond biological ties. Embrace individual value, whether married or single, while emphasizing the importance of love grounded in faith. Learn how viewing the church as a family fosters genuine care and community support, enhancing spiritual growth for all. Reflect on Jesus’s teachings that true fulfillment comes from Him, rather than romantic connections alone.

Whoever Is of a Generous Heart...
In this message from Exodus 35, Pastor J.D. invites us to rediscover God’s purposes for our church. Like the Old Testament people of God, we are living in a moment of new beginnings; and we believe God wants to write a new chapter through the Summit. God has done great things for us, liberating us from the slavery of sin. Now he invites us to become a part of his rescue plan for our neighbors and the nations.
