Burn the Ships

“We as Christians, when radically being obedient to the Lord, need to be willing to look extreme or even fanatical in our response to the call of the gospel. If the Lord has called us to do something, we must be willing to burn our ships and walk away, no matter what the neighbors think.”

- Pastor Steve

A City on a Hill

“A solitary Christian is a weak Christian. A solitary Christian is a Christian who is in danger. A solitary Christian is an easy target for the devil. A solitary Christian is a light that can be conquered by the devil…But a community of Christians, a community of 50 lights or 100 lights or hundreds of lights are not easily put out.”

- Pastor Josh

Adversity, Faith, & Divine Intervention

“The more you practice the suppression of conviction, the less sensitive you will be to sin, in the subsequent calls to repentance. And before you know it, you will be just like Ahab or Jezebel. Even when fire miraculously falls from heaven, it will not be enough to open your eyes to the reality of your sin…don't become callous, cold, or hardened. May the grace of Jesus soften our hearts and make us increasingly sensitive to identify and repent of the sins in our lives.”

- Pastor Steve

Seek & You Will Find

“If you hunger and thirst for righteousness, for a right relationship, and a right standing before God, you will find it, and you will be satisfied…If you live a life seeking mercy, showing mercy, then you will find mercy in return. If you live a life seeking purity of heart, then you will find the source of all purity, God Himself.”

- Pastor Josh

The Miracle of Daily Grace

“God allowed pain to occur...He removed the grace of his daily provision, to help his people see how desperate they were, how dependent they were on him. But we must remember the daily provision of God's grace is no less miraculous than the big moments in our lives. The daily provision is no less miraculous than the first rain in seven years, for Israel. Times of difficulty can awaken us to help us to be more appreciative of this miracle of grace, that God allows our hearts to beat.”

- Pastor Steve

The Promise of a Happy Ending

“We may not yet see the sun in its fullness, but the light of Christ grows every single day in the dark woods of our lives. And we may not see the sun in its fullness, but we see that light beginning to cover the entire earth. Satan will stop the plans and promises of God just as easily as you will stop the sun from rising tomorrow morning. The sun will rise. There will be a new heavens and a new earth where only righteousness dwells. There will be men and women from every nation, every tribe, and every tongue standing before the throne of God, worshiping him for all of eternity.”

- Pastor Josh

What is Good About Good Friday?

“On this day, on Good Friday, Jesus saw our helpless state and took our place on the cross. Providing the acceptable sacrifice that brings atonement and reconciliation. The only clean hands that ever took place in human history took the nails that were reserved for us. There would be no hope for us outside of Gods plan of redemption established from eternity past.”

- Pastor Steve

Crown Him or Kill Him?

“We must surrender everything…If we only submit to him, we'll be overflowing and saturated with, the joy and the peace that passes understanding that only comes from the Lord. Crown him in every area of your life today, and there will be a love, peace, and joy that pours into your soul that nothing in this world can touch.”

- Pastor Steve

Grow - Give - Go

“Pain exists, loss exists, death exists in this world to communicate to us that something is wrong. Something is broken. Something is not the way it is supposed to be. And it is right to hurt, and it is right to mourn, and it is right to grieve and feel the pain and the brokenness.”

- Pastor Josh

Are You A Disciple?

“Do you desire the gifts or do you desire the giver? Do you long to be more like Jesus Christ? Do you love him and want to be more like him? Do you want to serve Him or be served by Him? …all the good gifts that God gives and that come through His people, the church, are meant to point people to Christ.”

- Pastor Josh

A Greater King

“We rest in the power that He has, He gives, and we do not place our hope, in the face of the trials of this life, in our own weakness, in our own weak strength, in our own flesh, in our human strength. We have a great King. A great King who offers us His strength, who offers us His Spirit. Find your rest in Him today.”

- Pastor Josh

Fulfilling All Righteousness

“None of us have been perfect. And the story of the Old Testament, the story of the Bible, is a mess. You see all these sinners, chapter after chapter after chapter, failing to live as God had called them to live, as God had made them to live, as God had instructed them to live in His law. No one had done what the law required. But then came the Messiah. Then came our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.”

- Pastor Josh

Fire From Heaven

“In whatever situation the Lord has you, regardless of the battlefield, we are fighting for His glory and not our own. He must become greater. I must become less. How can you, in your very specific area of influence, with the skill set that you've been given by the Lord, be a warrior for the kingdom of Christ?”

- Pastor Steve

What Do You Want?

“So to simplify it…if we want God, we will want the things that He wants. And if our desire for Him, comes from the heart, our desire to do what pleases Him will also come from the heart. And we will seek to please Him with our hands, with our mouths, with our minds, and with all of our lives.”

- Pastor Josh

Building on a Right Foundation

“Our hope is found in Christ. Let us tell the world that our hope is found in Christ, that our strength is found in Christ. Let us tell the world that our forgiveness is found in Christ. Let us tell the world that our salvation is found in Christ. Let us tell the world that it is all about Christ.”

- Pastor Josh
