Do you hate that word? What does it mean in Ephesians 5 when God says that we are to be “submitting to one another in the fear of Christ.”? What does it mean in the next verse when it says, “Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord”? What does submission to the Lord look like? Come out or log in this Sunday as we explore the idea of submission and what it does and doesn’t mean in the life of the Christian.
Life is filled with many anxious moments….especially in 2020. However, it is incredibly reassuring to know God watches over the affairs of our lives. Psalm 121–a song sung by the Israelites when they traveled to Jerusalem–reminds us that God watches over us during times of uncertainty. Come on out or log on Sunday morning to hear Paul Golden expound this great Psalm for us. The livestream will be available here Sunday morning at 10:45 or if you have questions about joining us in person at that time, please see below! God Bless! We will have one condensed service at 10:45 …
It is easy to look at some Scripture passages such as Ephesians 5 and come up with a long list of things we shouldn’t do, and it is important to be careful to avoid sinful actions. The Christian life, however, is not just a list of things we shouldn’t do, it is a life that is to be lived with a purpose and we should be just as focused, if not more so, on what we should be doing as what we should not. Paul raises this issue in verses 15-21 of Ephesians 5. Join us Sunday as we take …

Do you like to see where you are going? Have you ever had someone come to your rescue with a flashlight when you were lost in the dark? We as Christians are children of the Kingdom of Light and as a result are called to walk in the Light and thereby be light here in this dark world. Come join us here Online at 10:45 June 14 as we unpack what this means from Ephesians 5.
We had another wonderful outdoor service today! God gave us such beautiful weather and many people worked together to make it a wonderful experience with a great music and worship time together. We also looked at the important but difficult issue of racial bias and the need to confront this issue in our own lives and seek to be instruments of change in our world. I encourage you to listen to todays timely message as we seek to have a biblical understanding of this issue and corresponding behavior.
This Sunday we are having our first in person service in 12 weeks! We are going to use the outdoors as our venue for this first time back together. Join us for this full worship service with congregational singing, special music, and a message from the book of Matthew that will give us some important reminders as we emerge from this pandemic. We ask that you bring your own chair to join us. We will also have a limited number of parking spaces for those who’s health needs require the shelter of their car. Come join us! We do ask …
From the very day we are born, we begin looking to others for cues on how to live. God has given children the incredible desire to both mimic their parents and seek a response from their actions. Even into adulthood, the truth is we are still doing this: looking to those around us for cues how to behave in a certain situation and hoping to get signals that we are OK. The problem is, we might not be picking the right people and the right behavior to mimic. God gives us some clear direction in Ephesians 5, join me as …
Here are some specifics: It is planned for May 31 and will be weather permitting. Pray that God will bless us with a dry Saturday and Sunday.

We will have rows marked off in 6 foot intervals for you to set your own chairs up in the west half of the parking lot. If you have …
Some people are saying that the Corona virus crisis is God’s judgment on America (or the world or . . . you pick the target). Are they correct? Others are asking, how can a good, loving God allow this to happen? Does true, biblical, Christianity have any substantial answers for this or just sympathy? We should be ministering, showing the love of Christ, and weeping together with those that weep, but is the love of Christ limited to just a helping hand and a shoulder to cry on, or can we offer something deeper at the same time? I want …
