A SEASON OF BLESSING
As the rhythms of life begin to change this fall, we're embracing the season with hearts fixed on what matters most. Through every changing season, God remains faithful, inviting us to grow deeper in our Faith, strengthen our Families, walk in the Freedom found in Christ, and step confidently into the Future He is preparing. Check out our events to see all the ways you can be part of this Fall and take your next step.
SUNDAYS THIS FALL
We are excited for these upcoming sermon series and events. We hope you and your family will join us!
AUGUST: Back in the Saddle
Back in the Saddle is a three-week practical series about building healthy routines, strengthening spiritual disciplines, and preparing for a new school year and fall season with purpose.
Together, we’ll discover how small, consistent choices can deepen our faith, shape our families, and help us become more like Jesus.
Don’t just settle for another busy fall—create Christ-centered rhythms that can change your life for the better.
SEPTEMBER: Throw the First Punch
What does it look like to faithfully follow Jesus without shrinking back? In a world that constantly challenges our convictions, God calls His people to live with courage, confidence, and purpose.
In Throw the First Punch, we’ll explore spiritual warfare, biblical courage, and holy conviction as we learn to stop playing defense and start advancing the Kingdom of God.
OCTOBER: The Bible Tells Me So
Can you really trust the Bible? Is it still relevant in today’s world? How do all 66 books fit together? And why does Scripture matter so much for everyday life? In a culture that encourages us to follow our feelings, create our own truth, and question every authority, the Bible continues to make one extraordinary claim: it is the living, life-changing Word of God.
In The Bible Tells Me So…, we’ll strengthen our confidence in Scripture as we discover its historical reliability, trace God’s unified story from Genesis to Revelation, and deepen our understanding of why His Word remains the foundation for faith, truth, and everyday living.
NOVEMBER: Heart for the House
God is preparing a table, extending an invitation, and building a house with room for
everyone—but too many people are still living outside of what He has prepared for them.
This November, To the Future: Heart for the House will challenge us to move beyond
simply attending church and begin taking ownership of its mission. If we truly have a heart
for this house, we will serve it with our time, strengthen it with our talent, support it with our
treasure, and carry its invitation into the highways and byways of our community.
There is still room. The question is: will we help fill the house?
DECEMBER: Home for the Holidays
