The Church - Part 5 - Preview of Heaven

Father's Day - The Prodigal Father

This Father’s Day, Pastor Garrett’s message, The Prodigal Father, takes us through Luke 15:11–32 and offers a fresh look at one of Jesus’ most well-known parables. While the story is often called the Parable of the Prodigal Son, it ultimately reveals the extravagant love, grace, and compassion of a Father who never stops pursuing His children. Join us as we reflect on the heart of God and the invitation to come home to the Father who welcomes us with open arms.

Receiving the Kingdom

This week’s message, Receiving the Kingdom, explores what it means to approach God with the trust, humility, and dependence of a child. Looking at Mark 10:13–16, John 1:9–13, Proverbs 3:5–7, Deuteronomy 31:8, and 1 Corinthians 3:19, we’ll discover how God invites us to receive His kingdom not through our own wisdom or strength, but through faith in Him. Join us as we learn to trust God’s guidance, rest in His presence, and embrace the life He offers as His children.

The Nature of the Kingdom

This week’s message, The Nature of the Kingdom, looks at Mark 4:26–29 and the way God’s kingdom grows in ways we don’t always understand or control. We’ll explore what it means to embrace the mystery of the kingdom, live a life of dependence on God, and recognize that while there is work to do, it’s a different kind of work than we often expect. Join us as we learn to trust God’s process and faithfully participate in what He is doing.

Big Questions - Rules Versus Relationship

In our series Big Questions, Pastor Garrett explores the question: Is following Jesus about rules or relationship? Looking at John 15:15 and Matthew 5:17–20, this message reminds us that faith is rooted in knowing God, not just following a list of commands. We’ll explore how not everything in Scripture is prescriptive, and how Old Testament laws point us to deeper principles and wisdom that reveal God’s heart. Join us as we discover how Jesus invites us into a relationship that transforms the way we read the Bible and live our faith.

Big Questions - The Mystery of the Trinity & Why it Matters

In our series Big Questions, Pastor Garrett explores one of the most foundational truths of the Christian faith: the mystery of the Trinity and why it matters. Looking at The Gospel of John 17:1–5, this message helps us understand that God is three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—each fully God, yet there is only one God. More than just a theological idea, the Trinity shapes how we understand our purpose, what has been broken by sin, and what God is working to restore through Christ. We’re reminded that we were created for relationship with God, and through Jesus, we are invited back into the life and love of the Trinity. Join us as we discover why this mystery is not only worth believing, but life-changing for every disciple.
