Scripture: 1 John 2:15-17 (ESV) What if the problem in life isn’t your circumstances, but it’s your lens? We live in a world that constantly tells us what to chase, what to fear, and what to value. But God invites us to see differently, to lift our eyes from the temporary to the eternal, from the noise of culture to the clarity of truth. To achieve this, we must understand that a transformed life begins with a changed perspective.  Because when your perspective shifts to living with an eternal perspective, you’re not captivated by the world’s values but by God’s truth, all by Changing Our Perspective.

Scripture: Hebrews 12:14-15 Let’s be honest: it doesn’t take much to get under our skin these days. A snarky comment online, a headline that hits too close to home, or someone cutting you off in traffic—it’s like the world is handing out free offenses. But what if we didn’t take the bait? What if, instead of reacting, we responded with something unexpected—grace, patience, even love? The Other Cheek is all about that choice. It’s not about being passive or pretending things don’t hurt. It’s about learning a better way to deal with conflict, one that reflects the heart of Jesus and leads to real peace.

  Ever feel like life is moving so fast you can barely catch your breath, let alone focus on God? You’re not alone. Between phones that talk to us, schedules packed with karate classes and Bible studies, and the constant ding of notifications, it’s easy to lose sight of what really matters. From silent movies to smart devices, distractions have evolved, but the struggle to stay spiritually focused is timeless. This week’s message, Focus, Focus, Focus, dives into the everyday chaos and asks: What’s pulling our eyes off Jesus? So, let’s explore how to reclaim our attention, refocus our hearts, and fix our eyes on the One who never loses sight of us.

Have you ever looked back and realized that God was working in your life—not just in the big moments, but in the quiet, ordinary ones? This message explores how God moves in the “while” and the “where”—in the middle of our routines, relocations, and even our frustrations. The Bible shows us that divine timing isn’t always dramatic, but it’s always intentional. So, what if right now, right where you are, is exactly where God wants to begin something new, and one day someone will share your story and how God moved, While They Were There.

Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:6-8 Let’s be honest, nobody wakes up one morning and says, “I think I’ll drift away from God today.” But life has a way of sneaking up on us. One moment we’re doing fine, and the next we’re knee- deep in relationship drama, stuck in habits we swore we’d break, and wondering why God feels so far away. We look around and ask, “How did I end up here?” It’s easier than we think, especially when our focus shifts from what we do have to everything we don’t. That’s when the slow burn of discontentment starts. We get frustrated, bitter, maybe even a little cynical. In other words, we get disgruntled.  But in scripture, we are reminded that “godliness with contentment is great gain.” That’s not just a nice idea, it’s a lifeline. In this message, Be Disgruntled, we’re going to talk about how to spot that drift before it takes over, and how to anchor our hearts in something far more solid than circumstances.

Scripture: Isaiah 61:1-7 (NKJV) What’s in a word? Words are more than letters slapped together; they define a concept and action, feeling, or emotion, and open up whole new worlds and experiences. Did you know the Bible doesn’t just use one word for praise, but it uses 7 different Hebrew ones, each packed with its own layers of meaning? Meanwhile, in English, we’ve got… well, just “praise.” That’s like showing up to a paint party with only one color in your kit; everything starts looking the same. In this message series, “Praisetionary,” we’re breaking open the full spectrum of worship language. Think of it as upgrading from a single wrench to a whole toolbox. Because when it comes to praising God, the more ways we know how to express it, the richer and more authentic our praise becomes.

**We experienced significant technical difficulties during the service and were unable to live stream. Pastor Jack re-recorded the sermon, and you can watch it here.** Scripture: Isaiah 40:25-26 Bulletin: Click HERE For generations, hymns have served as the heartbeat of the Church—woven into the fabric of worship, shaping  ur faith, and carrying the truths of Scripture through melody and verse. While contemporary praise songs stir our hearts, there is something special about the ageless hymns that have stood across from one voice to another like holy echoes of history. Like the Book of Psalms, these songs have guided worship from massive cathedrals to country 1-room churches, and family gatherings, by strengthening and sustaining believers in times of joy and grief. In the series, I Know Hymn, we will rediscover the deep theological truths and spiritual richness found in these classic hymns and explore how they still speak to us today.
