No Awkward First Visit

Here’s the deal…

 

We do things a little differently around here…

 

We know it can be a little weird or even awkward visiting a church for the first time…

 

That’s why we created Plan Your Visit.

 

When you sign up for Plan Your Visit we’ll:

 

✅ Meet you at the front door.

✅ Help you get your kids checked in.

✅ Introduce you around to a few people.

✅ Save you seats.

✅ We’ll even sit with you if you want. (so you don't have to sit by yourself.)

 

We want to make your first visit as easy as possible, and actually take time to get to know you and your family.

 

Pretty crazy idea, right?

 

Will you come hang out with us this Sunday?

Pastors Brandon and Bethany

Hi, my name is Brandon.

 

I believe that you are uniquely wired by God for a specific purpose, and that unless you figure out what that purpose is, you'll never be truly fulfilled.

 

No one else on earth can fulfill the unique calling that God has for you.

 

No one else can fulfill your assignment. 

 

Maybe you know exactly what your purpose is, maybe you've been running from it for a while, or maybe you have absolutely no idea where to even start looking for it...

 

But I want to help you find it.

 

Because I believe that the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who actually do...

 

TEST DRIVE A SERMON

Love God |

Be Light

The message Love God, Be Light emphasizes the greatest commandments: to love God fully and love others as ourselves. Loving God involves a transformational relationship, shaping all aspects of Christian living, while being a light means reflecting Jesus’ love and compassion in a dark world. Together, these actions fulfill Jesus’ call to live out faith and share His glory.


Who is my Neighbor

The message Who Is My Neighbor? highlights that a neighbor is anyone we encounter in need, as illustrated in the parable of the Good Samaritan. Neighborly love reflects God’s kindness and compassion, often requiring personal sacrifice while pointing others to Jesus as the ultimate gift. By loving God and being a light, we fulfill His call to embody grace and truth in our relationships.


Sharing the Light

The message Sharing the Light emphasizes the call to love God, love neighbors, and reflect His light in the world. It challenges believers to see Jesus, see their neighbors, and intercede for them while sharing the gospel boldly, empowered by the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). By living as a light on a hill (Matthew 5:14-16), we glorify God and bring His hope to everyone we encounter.
