Revelation 19 We are starting a 4-week sermon series looking at the final four chapters in Revelation. It is a great reminder for us in uncertain times of what happens in the end. Let us be encouraged and raise a Hallelujah!!!
Jonah Part 4: The Scandal
Jonah 4 In the upside-down kingdom of God, losing is winning, dying is living, weakness is strength, and our enemy is our brother. In the end of Jonah, we see all people at risk of falling under God’s abundant grace. For He has mercy for whom He has mercy and compassion for whom He has… Continue reading Jonah Part 4: The Scandal
Jonah Part 3: Mercy
Jonah 3 We are continuing in Jonah this week. Read chapter 3 before the service and ask God to speak to your heart. Jonah is more mirror than window!
Jonah Part 2: Next Level
*Jonah 2:1-3* Jonah’s spirituality was fine for his old ministry but when faced with a new call, it just collapsed, and he bailed. In the belly of a great fish, Jonah begins to pray, and he has a breakthrough. Now this new calling he can follow. So, how do we move to the next level?
What is Your Superpower?
*John 14:12-14*
Jonah Part 1: Going Down
*Jonah 1:1–17* Rather than a lens to see the world through, the book of Jonah acts as a mirror to see ourselves. Jonah’s story exposes our own tendency to co-opt God for the life we want rather than surrender to the life He has for us.
Acts: Service in Christ
*Acts 6:1-7* As the first-century church began to grow it experienced issues. People were overlooked and others complained. It’s a reminder that the Church can be messy. That messiness is a call that we must respond to with the right attitude and with a serving heart.
Waiting Upon the Lord
*Isaiah 64.4* We all hate to wait. Our culture does everything it can to eliminate waiting. Everything is available at our fingertips. We can instantly download everything, we can ship things from Amazon the next day, we can even pay extra money so we don’t have to wait as long in lines. God’s Word gives… Continue reading Waiting Upon the Lord
The Battle: War in Me
*Romans 7* Everyone has a war within themselves. The reason for this is that inside of ourselves there is a desire for evil as well as a desire for good. It’s a war that we can’t win but the battle changes when we become a Christian.
Acts: The Beginning
*Acts 1:1-8* Come hear how the church was birthed and received power!
Parable of the Sower: Are We Listening?
*Matthew 13:1-23* The Kingdom of God comes through hearing. Are we listening? Earthly kingdoms rely on force but the Kingdom of God relies on a seed. We need to be a people that practice deep listening and understanding in order for that seed to transform us.
Why God?
(Habakkuk 1:1-17)Habakkuk is a short book in the Old Testament. We know almost nothing about Habakkuk himself, but this book is very fitting to our time. Come hear and see Habakkuk wrestle with God and ask Him the same “why” questions that we do today.
Aug 4th Community Service
We would love to share the Aug 4th Community Service with you!
The Battle: Our Enemy
(Luke 11:14-28) The Bible reveals there is an unseen war going on around us that we need to be aware of. Peter tells us that we are to be self-controlled and alert because there is an enemy seeking to devour us. Today we will look at those enemies and their schemes so that we don’t… Continue reading The Battle: Our Enemy
Frequency – Tuning to God’s Voice
(John 5:1-20) This will be about tuning to the voice of God above every other voice that we hear. We want our church to all tune together to the voice of God so that we can play our individual instruments in God’s symphony.
Devine Appointment: Philip
Are you satisfied with where you are at? Acts gives us a portrait that will help remove the fear we have for doing what God calls us to do.
Daniel Part 4: Lion’s Den
(Daniel 6) Final sermon in the series looking at the life of Daniel and the other exiles in Babylon.
Daniel Part 3: Writing on the Wall
(Daniel 5: 5:1-6, 17-31) We have been learning how to live as believers in a culture that does not share our biblical views or truths.
Daniel Part 2: Fiery Furnace
(Daniel 3:14-29) Babylon was the preeminent power in the world and it had conquered Israel. The professional classes were exiled to Babylon and pressured to assimilate to the Babylonian way of life. Some of the Jewish exiles, Daniel’s friends, are put to the test when forced to adopt Babylonian values or be thrown into a… Continue reading Daniel Part 2: Fiery Furnace
Daniel Part 1: Two Kingdoms
Daniel 2:24-46The book of Daniel tells about a time of exile. A time where Daniel once lived in a culture that matched his faith but he was taken from there and thrust into Babylon. By looking at Daniel we can see an example on how to live out our faith in a hostile culture.
Happy Father’s Day
Luke 9:28-36
The Cumulative Effect
(Galatians 6:7-9) In life there are small things that build up over time and have a cumulative effect. Who we are, our relationships, our finances, our health, our spirituality—all of these things are greatly impacted by this cumulative effect. Often the easiest things to do or not to do, have the biggest impact.
God Will Make a Way
(Exodus 14:10-18) The Israelites after leaving Egypt find themselves trapped and facing the full might of the Egyptian army. When the people came to Moses, this was his response: Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see… Continue reading God Will Make a Way
Worthless Sacrifice
(Malachi 1:6-2:9) By the end of the Old Testament, the priests were allowing God’s people to bring their worst to Him. God brought a charge against them, reminding them of His love and the discipline that would come. He wanted their full attention, not their leftovers. Let us be reminded He is not to be… Continue reading Worthless Sacrifice
Flip the Script
(Acts 2, Acts 9, Acts 16) All of us are going to face difficulties. Situations that will push their way into our life and disrupt our perfectly crafted plans. But here’s the truth. We can flip the script on those difficulties when we decide that everything can be used for the purpose that God has for us,… Continue reading Flip the Script
Women of the Bible Part 3: Hagar, Seen by God
We are continuing the series on women of the Bible on Mother’s Day.
The Book of Ezekiel
(Ezekiel 36:23-29)
Women of the Bible Part 2: The Woman in the Dust
(John 8:1-11) We are continuing the series on women of the Bible as we approach Mother’s Day. This week Jesus encounters a woman thrown to the ground in the dust.
Women of the Bible Part 1: The Woman of Faith
(Mark 5.25-34) We are kicking off a series on Women of the Bible as we approach Mother’s Day. This week we hear the account of a woman who has waged a battle that has lasted for 12 years. She fights her way in faith through a crowd just to touch the edge of a cloak of… Continue reading Women of the Bible Part 1: The Woman of Faith
Impact Team
The NCO Impact Team exists to glorify Jesus Christ, minister to our district teens while learning to minister to others, and TO SHARE THE LOVE OF CHRIST THROUGH WORSHIP!
Selfie Society
(1 Timothy 3:1-2) Paul warns Timothy that there will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves among other things. What is interesting in this warning, is who are the people Paul is talking about. Let’s examine our lives together with God’s word.
Resurrection Sunday: Mercy!
(Matthew 27:45-55) Easter Sunday is a powerful reminder of the gift we have in access to a holy God. Grace is freely given but God has terms that remind us just how undeserving we are and how gracious He is in desiring to be in relationship with us. Just as the high priest was—by mercy—able… Continue reading Resurrection Sunday: Mercy!
Palm Sunday and the Temple
(Luke 19:28-20:2) After Jesus enters Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, He enters the Temple, drives out the dealers and money changers, and even overturns tables. It is the only recorded act of violence by Jesus in the Bible. To understand why, we will dive into this account this Palm Sunday.
The Call of the Good Samaritan
(Luke 10:25-37) This is one of Jesus’ most famous stories. The first part of chapter 10 says all disciples are given the gospel as a message that is to be shared with everyone. In this last part of the chapter, we’re given the other side of being a disciple; instead of just being called messengers,… Continue reading The Call of the Good Samaritan
The Journey
(Acts 13-16) Christians are referred to as travelers or sojourners. The Christian life is itself referred to as a journey. When we hear that word, we tend to think of destinations and locations. But there’s another aspect to any journey that is just as important as where we are going, It’s – who you are… Continue reading The Journey
The Life of David: Part 5 David and Bathsheba
(2 Samuel 11:1-5, 14-17; 12:1-7) David is known for having a heart like God’s, but we see that despite that, he commits a horrible act. This account should be a warning to us not to let our guard down. This account also shows how we should approach people that have started down the wrong path.… Continue reading The Life of David: Part 5 David and Bathsheba
Life of David Part 4: Mephibosheth
(2 Samuel 9) David shows a special kind of love to Mephibosheth, love that values the relationship more than personal gain. Today we often see love that asks “what’s-in-it-for-me”. That’s why we see people easily walk away from relationships that don’t serve their needs. This special love that David shows demands dedication and sacrifice, but… Continue reading Life of David Part 4: Mephibosheth
Life of David Part 3: David’s Passion
(2 Samuel 6)We’re looking at the life of David, and in this part, we look at when David is king, and he wants to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. A couple fascinating things happen along the way that end up changing David.
The Family of God
(Romans 8:1-17, Ephesians 3, Psalm 68:5-6)
Life of David: Part 2 Hero of Heroes
(1 Samuel 17:32-50)The story of David and Goliath is the story of different ways to face your fears. We see this in the life of Saul, David, and Goliath. One of these foreshadows the hero of heroes and when we see that, that’s when we truly have courage.
The Life of David Part 1
1 Samuel Perhaps the greatest description God ever gave to one of his own were the words spoken over David, that he was a “man after God’s own heart”. David was far from perfect, but he loved what God loved and hated what God hated. I’m hoping that taking a look through this man’s life… Continue reading The Life of David Part 1
Desperation for Others
(Mark 9:14-29, Matthew 6:16-18, Luke 4:1-14, Psalm 73:25-28, Psalm 81:10, Phil. 2:12-13) Last week we talked about one thing. I asked you if you could have one thing, what would it be. David said his one thing was to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of his life. Hopefully this year,… Continue reading Desperation for Others
One Thing
(Exodus 33 & 34) David said, “One thing my heart desires…” How would you honestly finish that sentence for yourself today? What is the one thing your heart desires? I’m hoping we are challenged by an account of Moses to take our walk with God to the next level.
The Book of Job
Book of JobSuffering is going to happen, but it doesn’t have to be the end. Instead of the temporary happiness the world offers, God offers us eternal joy when we look to Him. We will be going through the book of Job to be reminded that even though we live in a broken world, God… Continue reading The Book of Job
Enough
(Acts 27 & 28, Romans 8) Enough is enough. God has a plan and purpose for your life, and we can’t let anything get in the way of that. We need to be convinced of what Christ has done for us and live under His authority.
The Magi and gift of Myrrh
Matthew 2 We are looking to the account of the Magi and their kingly gifts. In particular the gift of Myrrh and all it pointed to. God is acquainted with death and with its sting, but He conquered it once and for all through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
Worship Part 3: Sacrifice
This is the final message in our series on worship. Worship always involves sacrifice. As worshippers of God, we don’t want to be people who give Him praise that costs us nothing. We owe everything to Him so let us be people who leave our offerings on the altar. (Hebrews 10:14, Hebrews 13:11-16, Amos 5:21-24,… Continue reading Worship Part 3: Sacrifice
Christmas Play 2023 / Worship Part 2: Worship is a Verb
Christmas Play 2023 In part one of our sermon series on worship we looked at some things that we need to understand when it comes to worship. Everyone worships and so the question was who or what are we worshipping. Hopefully Jesus is on the throne and now we need to turn our attention to… Continue reading Christmas Play 2023 / Worship Part 2: Worship is a Verb
Worship Part 1: Created To
No one has to be taught how to worship because God created us to do that. What we have to ask ourselves is who or what are we worshipping, because what we worship is what we will ultimately resemble. Scripture References: (Romans 1:18-20 Deuteronomy 4:29 Romans 1:21-25 John 4:19-20 John 4:21-24 Psalm 115:1-8)
Is Jesus Returning Soon Part 3: How To Be Ready
(Matthew 25:1-13) Jesus was concerned His disciples could easily grow comfortable in their waiting for His return. His challenge to them—and us—was to be ready, to live in such a way as to still have an urgency in the waiting and be prepared for the coming of Christ.
Is Jesus Returning Part 2: Signs
(2 Timothy 3:1-5, 2 Peter 3:3, Jude 1:18-19, 1 Timothy 4:1, 1 John 2:18-19) Even in the midst of many signs, we won’t know what day the Lord will come. Speaking to His disciples near the end of His ministry, Jesus placed the emphasis of the topic not so much on when the end times… Continue reading Is Jesus Returning Part 2: Signs
Is Jesus Returning Soon?
(Matthew 24), (2 Peter 3) Near the end of His ministry, Jesus shared with His disciples that He would return someday. His challenge was to keep watch, not living focused on what’s fleeting, but instead living with the end in mind—Jesus will return as the King and Lord of all. Are we ready? Is it… Continue reading Is Jesus Returning Soon?
Guest Speaker
We had a guest speaker, Marlane Cox, from Abigail Ministries giving her powerful testimony and talking about a recovery ministry that she started.
Scarce Generosity
Habakkuk (3:17-19), Deuteronomy (26:1-12) Today we are going to be in the book of Habakkuk. Habakkuk was a prophet, and the book is his conversation with God. In it, we see a righteous prayer that asks the hard questions, and we get to see him wrestle with in the midst of those hard times. We also… Continue reading Scarce Generosity
Branch Life Part 4: Sticks
(John 15:1-8) This is the final sermon in the Branch Life series and this week we move from those branches that are connected to sticks that aren’t connected. Come and see why branches become sticks and is there any hope for a stick.
Branch Life Part 3: Abide in Me
John 15:1-8 In Christianity or what we are referring to as the Branch Life, we learned in week 1 that we are called to connection over production. Last week we were reminded that we will be pruned in order that we might produce more fruit. This week we look at verse 3 and 4, and… Continue reading Branch Life Part 3: Abide in Me
The Bonsai Way: The Branch Life Part 2
John 15:1-8 Last week we started the Branch Life series that looks at John 15:1-8. In our first part, we looked at the importance of us being connected to the vine. We’re the branch – Jesus is the true vine – we have to focus on connection. That’s our responsibility if we are going to… Continue reading The Bonsai Way: The Branch Life Part 2
Be the Branch – Part 1
John 15:1-8 John 13 through 17 is called the Upper Room Discourse. This all happens on Thursday right before Jesus is crucified. At the start of Chapter 15, they are on their way to the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus knows what awaits them; the disciples don’t fully realize it. Jesus wants to prepare them for… Continue reading Be the Branch – Part 1
The Mark of the Beast and the Book of Hope
Revelation 2:1-7 and Revelation 4-5 Many of us see things and we wonder if this thing is the mark of the beast and a further sign of the end of time, but the Church in Ephesus experienced the mark of the beast, and we can find hope in the same place that they did.
Church as a Family on Mission
Matthew 9:35-38, Romans 1:8-17 Church is often described as a family and must be seen that way. As a family, we must strive to be on mission and join God in what He is doing.
Church as a Family
Ephesians 4:11-16 We are continuing to talk about the culture we want to create in this church. Think of the whirlpool example – this current we want to have that pushes us in the direction we want to be moving. One powerful image of how the church is described is of a family. That’s the… Continue reading Church as a Family

Marriage in Christ Part 2 Forgiveness
Matthew 18:21-35 A marriage without grace and forgiveness will lead to divorce, lifelong bitterness, or emotionally numb resignation. A life in general where we hang on to unforgiveness is a heavy burden that pulls us to destruction. We can draw strength to forgive from the good news that God forgave us long before He called… Continue reading Marriage in Christ Part 2 Forgiveness
Marriage Strong
Ephesians 5:21-33 Marriage is hard and takes work. God’s word gives us a meaning, purpose, and way to make our marriages strong.

After seeing last week what led the great prophet Elijah to the point of despair, God then leads him… Continue reading Courageous Part 2
Called to be Courageous
Romans 8:28, 1 Kings 19 verse 1-9, Proverbs 4:23, 1 Kings 19:3, Romans 1:11-12 All followers of Christ have a call on their life. The enemy works hard to discourage us with lies. The Prophet Elijah experienced that but we must be courageous and answer that call.
Baptism Rethought
(Acts 2:37-41, Acts 2:38, Romans 6:3, Mark 1:4, Mark 1:9-11, Mathew 28:18-19, Acts 8:12, Acts 8:35-38, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 16:31-33, Ephesians 2:8, Mathew 4:17, John 14:6, Mathew 13:44, 1 Peter 3:20-21) A lot of times when we talk about baptism we ask and question so many things. Do I have to be baptized, does it… Continue reading Baptism Rethought

The Word tells us that the thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy but the Word also tells us that we have a Good Shepherd that is with us. Hear how… Continue reading Escape the Grip
Mordecai – Good Dad, Good Decisions
Book of Esther When we think about fathers, we often search the Bible for stories about Abraham or look to God the Father. But I’d like to take you to a text that shows a good father who became one by choice. He was a good dad making good decisions that set his daughter up… Continue reading Mordecai – Good Dad, Good Decisions

Commending to the Next
Psalms 145:1-9Psalm 145 calls us to invite the next generation into God’s greater story, praising Him for His wonderful works. We are asking God to raise up faithful leaders in the generations to come and for us to be faithful in commending to them the Gospel.
Heroes of the Faith Part 1: Cain vs Abel (Worship)
Hebrews 11, Genesis 4 We are beginning a series looking at the heroes of the faith found in Hebrews 11. Both Cain and Abel brought an offering to the Lord but God rejected the way of Cain. Find out why Abel’s was commended and why it speaks on from the grave.
Sorrow’s Response
(1 Samuel 1:3-11, 18-20) Hannah experiences deep anguish due to not being able to have children. The voices of the culture and her husband only bring more sorrow but she has a moment where she gets up and responds to this sorrow in the only way that works. She turns to God and prays in… Continue reading Sorrow’s Response
Abraham: How can I know?
(Genesis 15:1-21) A theophany is a scene in which God manifests himself in a physical or audible way. This weird passage is about when God revealed himself to Abraham. What did Abraham see and how did he react? And how did God respond? And what does it all mean?
Acts: The First Church
(Acts 2:40-47)The first communities of believers exploded for the first 300 years. They grew so much that they replaced the cultures. If you want to see our culture changed, find out what made them so different and why they were so different.
Doubt and Mission
Stop it! Stop disqualifying yourself based on the doubts you have. Thomas was a monster in the faith and yet all we remember is he doubted. King David, Jeremiah, John the Baptist – all had doubts but they still moved forward in mission. We are going to have seasons where we question God’s word and… Continue reading Doubt and Mission

Easter Sunrise Service

The King Comes! Palm Sunday
Matthew 21:1-17 The Day the Disciples had been wanting finally is here. Jesus no longer hides that He is the Messiah. Jesus enters Jerusalem as King on Palm Sunday and now He will either be crowned or killed.
Jesus our Priest and King
Psalm 110 Psalm 110 is a Psalm written by King David. This Psalm is not well known compared to other Psalms like Psalm 23 but it is quoted more than any other Psalm in the New Testament. Jesus uses this Psalm to explain to people who He was and the statement is amazing.
It Starts with a Yes
Acts 9:10-17 Experiencing God starts with a yes. God doesn’t just speak to the Moses type people, He speaks and calls us all to join Him in what He is doing. We’ll see that in this passage found in Acts.

Genesis 29:15-35 In dealing with inner emptiness, we often hope for “one true love.” Leah finally found that hope after much failure.
Faithful to the Unfaithful
Hosea 3 This chapter has been referred to as the greatest chapter in the Bible. It also might be the most bizarre. It deals with a way in which we relate to God. At times we see God as Lord and we are His servants, in other moments He’s our shepherd or Father. If you… Continue reading Faithful to the Unfaithful

That is that Jesus is King and that fact is opposed by the darkness, but it ends with every knee bowing to King Jesus. Let us be Wise people that remember… Continue reading Jesus is King
Wander to Wonder
Luke 2:8-20 God chooses the lowest of society to announce the birth of a King and it takes them from a season of wander to wonder.
Silence Broken
Luke 1:5-25; 57-67 Why does it seem like God is silent in seasons of our lives? What is He doing and what should be our response? After 400 years of silence, an angel appears to a barren old couple and breaks the silence telling them they will bear a son whose name is to be John.
