Soul Care - “When the Soul Runs Dry”

We begin our series Soul Care with the message “When the Soul Runs Dry” based on 1 Kings 17:1–7. The opening chapters of Elijah’s story unfold during one of the darkest spiritual seasons in Israel’s history. Under Ahab and Jezebel’s leadership, the covenant relationship between God and Israel had become fractured by idolatry, fear, and spiritual compromise. The drought Elijah announces is not merely a weather crisis; it reflects a deeper spiritual dryness within the nation itself.

"The Power of a Faithful No"

We conclude our sermon series When the Spirit Moves with the message: “The Future Opens.” As we gather on Pentecost Sunday, we celebrate one of the most powerful moments in the life of the church – the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. What began as a promise becomes a reality. What was once uncertain becomes clear. And what once felt limited suddenly expands. Pentecost reminds us that the story of God is not behind us, but it’s still unfolding.

When the Spirit Moves: “Doors Open”

We continue with our sermon series When the Spirit Moves with the message: “Doors Open.” As we gather, we will also celebrate Senior Sunday, recognizing our graduating high school seniors. This is a meaningful moment in the life of our church, a time when we honor their journey, give thanks for who they have become, and acknowledge the new chapter that lies before them. Graduation is, in many ways, a season of open doors – some anticipated, others uncertain.

When the Spirit Moves “Compassion Rises”

We continue our sermon series When the Spirit Moves with the message: “Compassion Rises.” As we gather on Mother’s Day, we also take time to give thanks for the many ways compassion has been lived out in our lives through mothers, grandmothers, caregivers, and others who have shaped us with quiet strength, steady presence, and sacrificial care. We also hold space for those for whom this day carries grief, longing, or complexity. Wherever you find yourself, we trust that God meets us with compassion.
