To begin the season of advent, Pastor Rick gives us encouragement and reminds us about our hope not only in this season, but every day of the year: Jesus Christ.

Pastor Rick gives us a stand-alone message; centered around Thanksgiving, about why and how we can live our lives as thank you gifts to God.

Pastor Brian completes our series by speaking on how we can love one another by the way that we serve. Having a heart dedicated to serving God and others keeps the focus off of ourselves and always give us the opportunity to bless others.

Pastor Brian continues our series by speaking about how we can honor God as well as honoring different groups of people who we come into contact with. Ultimately, the quality of our life is determined by the quality of our relationships.

Pastor Rick tells us about forgiveness; what forgiveness is not and how we can come to resolve our hurt from past experiences.

To wrap up our series, Pastor Rick gives us a better understanding of what worry is versus what concern is. Knowing this difference helps us to discern what we're feeling and how to react to our feelings.

Pastor Ricks gives us a roadmap to help us beat one of the most difficult mental battles we can face: depression.

Anxiety has become something that is so prevalent these days, Pastor Rick lays out three simple things that we should do when we face feelings of anxiety!

If we're being honest, most people would say they have dealt with some kind of mental health problem in their life. So how does God call us to handle these struggles when they do come?

To wrap up our series, Pastor Rick emphasizes our need to be humble and stay humble. Our ability to listen and be obedient to the plan that God has for us is vital to living our lives the way God wants us to.

Pastor Rick gives us a way that we can be humble. As we become more humble, God exalts us.

Pastor Rick kicks off our series by talking about how pride is the root of almost every problem. Ultimately, pride can't give us the same things that God can give us. We challenge you with this message to ask yourself: Where is my pride?

To close series, Pastor Rick takes themes from "Champions" to talk about how serving God and others is what we were designed to do! Serving is one of the many ways that we can impact others on a personal level and our entire community when we serve together as a team.

Drawing from themes of the movie "Avatar: The Way of Water" Pastor Brian expands on the idea of guarding your heart. People say 'follow your heart' but will that lead us to what's best for us in the long run? What we allow into our heart will be one of the big indicators of where we are headed.

What do we do when a storm comes? Maybe a family member passes away or we lose our job or we get into a major financial crisis. Jesus tells us plainly that storms WILL happen in our life, so how do we deal with them? Pastor Rick unpacks what it looks like to keep our eyes on Jesus when we have troubles.

Pastor Rick highlights the classic movie remake "The Little Mermaid" and talks about the decisions that Ariel makes that lead her down a certain path and how it can teach us that our decisions have consequences (good and bad!) Our everyday choices that we make matter more than we think so we make each decision with an intentional heart towards God.

This is a special week as we watch Pastor Kevin preach at the Medina Campus for the very first time! Kevin talks about the movie "Indiana Jones" and about blessings. There are different types of blessings, specifically how God blesses us, how we can bless God and how we can bless other people.

Pastor Rick kicks off an annual series that we LOVE! Rick takes the themes that are woven throughout "Mission Impossible" and relates them to how we have also been set out on a mission by God to tell people about Jesus.

To wrap up our series, Pastor Rick discusses the fruit of self-control. This fruit keeps us accountable to who we are and who God is. Consistency in all areas of our lives is a vital piece of being a Christian who strives to be like Jesus.

It's easy to label something as "gentle" and think that it's also weak or timid or etc. Pastor Brian challenges this thought plainly stating that gentleness is NOT weakness or passivity by it's strength that is under control.

We have all heard that God is a faithful God but how does being faithful apply to our lives as Christians? As we've learned about in this series: the fruits of the Spirit are a way that we can reflect the nature of God. Today, let's learn how.

Integrity is an important part of our character. What we say (especially as Christians) should be a reflection of our actions whether other people are watching or not! Pastor Rick gives us an integrity check and how we can develop the kind of integrity that guides us to become more like Jesus.

Pastor Rick takes on kindness as the next fruit of the Spirit in our series. We look at how Jesus was kind to us first and how he set an example for us so that we could show others the same kindness.

Guest speaker Pastor Scott Lackey of New Story Church joins our fruit of the Spirit series by talking about the importance of patience and what can hinder our patience as well as how we can overcome our struggle and acquire a better patience in our spiritual lives.

Pastor Brian continues our series by talking about Peace as a fruit of the Spirit. In the same way that joy is not based on circumstance, peace can also be found in spite of what is going on around us every day.

Pastor Rick continues our series by talking about the second fruit of the spirit: joy. Joy is different from happiness, while happiness is about our circumstances, joy is found outside of our circumstances.

Our series Fruition is all about growing the fruit of the Spirit in our lives where each week we talk about a different "fruit." Pastor Brian kicks off our series on love, and how we can love people the way Jesus did.

If we don't love our jobs, there's a feeling of wanting more. More purpose, more passion, more drive. Pastor Rick talks about the story of David and how he glorified God whether he was herding sheep or King of a nation

Money is one of the biggest stressors when it comes to our life. Pastor Rick talks about how debt can affect our life and gives ways on how to manage our money instead of our money managing us.

Guilt, grief and grudges can be some of the biggest stumbling blocks in our relationship with God and with other people. Pastor Rick talks through how we can turn to Jesus with these feelings and how we can be restored.

Constantly feeling like we have to be perfect can be draining; what's even worse is when we feel like we have to be perfect with God. Pastor Rick encourages us with a message about our desire for perfection and how Jesus can help us.

Has God felt distant? In the final part of Hymns, Pastor Rick looks at the hymn "Come Thou Fount" and how we can return to God even when we wander.

Pastor Rick highlights the hymn "The Solid Rock" and talks about what the lyrics has meant to him over the years. If you've ever felt like you've gone 'cold' spiritually, there's still hope for you.

What's the one thing that God wants from us? He wants our love! Pastor Rick explains how we can express our love to God and ways to get better at showing our love for God.

On Resurrection Sunday, Pastor Rick kicks off our series with the hymn 'How Deep The Father's Love For Us' by talking about Jesus' death on the cross and resurrection which showed us the true love and power of our God.

Pastor Rick fixes our attention on the cross during Good Friday. The crucifixion was horrible news for the disciples when it happened, but it is good news for those who know the rest of the story.

Most often when we talk about our purpose in life as Christians we begin by listing all the things we can DO for God. In the final part of this message series Pastor Brian talks about our purpose by listing things that God wants us to receive from HIM.

Have you ever thought "Maybe it's time to just give up." Often times it can feel like the situation in front of us will never get better. Pastor Rick offers a challenge that we need to be more persistent in a donkey mission season because our perseverance can lead to more than we could've ever imagined.

Pastor Rick gives insight on the difference in character traits between Saul and David and how the character of David honored God, later God blessed David to become king. There are traits that will allow us to continue to honor God regardless of our circumstances.

Have you ever wonder: "Why am I in this situation? Why did God put me in this job? In this town?" In part 1 of Donkey Mission, Pastor Brian gives background on the donkey mission story that's in the Bible and why donkey missions can be difficult but necessary in life.

We've all dealt with "those people" right? Maybe they're the rude one, the careless one, the one who really gets under your skin. Pastor Rick talks about difficult people in our life and how instead of dealing with them how we always have, there's a better way to handle "those people"

Pastor Rick continues our series by talking about how we can better foster the faith of the next generation: our children. Rick lays out 6 keys for raising children.

The Second Greatest Commandment that Jesus gave was "to love your neighbor as yourself." Pastor Rick gives us insight to who our 'neighbors' actually are and how to show them love in all circumstances.

Friends are important. Who we spend our time with is going to affect who we become. So how we pick the right friends? Pastor Rick breaks down how being a good friend is just as important as finding good friends.

When we think of somebody who is a servant, what's the first thing that comes to mind? Pastor Rick challenges what a life of servitude looks like. Instead of focusing on how we can be served, what's something that you can do to sacrifice for someone else?

It seems like every New Year people want to "get fit" right? But what if we learned how to honor God with our bodies by becoming physically healthy as well as spiritually healthy?

Building off of Week 2 of this same series, Pastor Brian gives us tangible steps of how to pray the way Jesus taught us using the Lord's prayer. We urge you to apply 1-2 of these steps into your prayer life!

Why is it important to pray? God wants to draw near to us, Pastor Rick unpacks truths about prayer and how we can become consistent.

In the first message of the year, Pastor Brian gives us perspective on where our priorities should be as we start a new season.
