Love Boldly, Serve Joyfully, Lead Courageously

Sundays: April 12-May 17, 2026

This six-week series invites congregations around the world to journey together through the heart of Christian discipleship. At its center is a simple but transformative truth: disciples of Jesus Christ are shaped, empowered, and sent by God to bless the world. Each week explores a core dimension of discipleship - being formed by Christ, empowered by the Spirit, loving boldly, serving joyfully, leading courageously, and ultimately joining God in transforming the world.

Choosing Gratitude

September 27, 2020
When there is much in our world that seems overwhelming and out of our control, it's good to remember habits that give us a sense of grounding, focus, perspective and even joy. One of the most basic habits of faith is gratitude. Gratitude is more than a nice idea, it is a simple habit and posture for which God has wired us and that brings joy even in the midst of adversity.

Moving in Faith

August 23-September 20, 2020
Moving in Faith to our new building is an act of hope for the future. We believe in a future with hope, in God's provision, in the community impact God is calling us to, in God's power to change lives, and in the welcoming embrace of God in Jesus Christ for all people!

Abide

August 2-16, 2020
In the midst of all that is going on it is easy to become disconnected from God, from others, and from ourselves. Our routines have changed, our connections are different, and it is hard to find our footing.
