    Summer Fest | God Likes to Party | Mark Coulter

    Summer Fest is a teaching series that explores the festivals of Israel as divine moments set on God’s calendar—intentional times where He invited His people to encounter His presence, remember His faithfulness, and anticipate His redemptive plan. These sacred festivals were not merely ancient traditions but signposts pointing forward to Jesus Christ and God’s ongoing work in the world today. As we journey from Passover to Pentecost, we will see how God uses sacred time to shine light into darkness, shape His people, and call us to respond. The same God who set appointments then is still inviting us now—the question is whether we will show up. This first message helps set the stage and get us in the right frame of mind to enter into the consecutive weeks and their festivals. One of the first things we grapple with is our image of who God is. Is your image of God like the Cosmic Killjoy or as the Hulk - always angry? Well, we have some good news for you! God established these joyous festivals, and Jesus kept up the tradition: God likes to party too! Join us as wade into this series and orient ourselves to what God is up to!

    Friendology | Friendship Across Differences | Jayden Groppi

    One thing we see in Scripture is how God invited His people to befriend those who were different from them. One story we read about in Acts 10 when Peter, one of the 12 disciples of Jesus, encounters a Roman centurion after God sends both them divine messages to set up the meeting. God was super intentional with them! Join us as Pastor Jayden leads us into the heart of the Gospel and our final message in this series. This series explores God’s design for friendship and offers practical, biblical wisdom for building healthy, life-giving relationships. Throughout this series, we will learn how to choose friends wisely, show up faithfully, navigate conflict, and grow together through honesty and grace. Ultimately, the series points us to Jesus as our truest friend and the foundation for all meaningful connection. Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST).

    Friendology | The Power of Presence | Mark Coulter

    If there's one thing we all could work on, it would be learning how to be present with our friends. How to rejoice with them when they are celebrating, and how to mourn with them when they are grieving. A great rule of thumb is to say little and sit long. A lot of times, our well-meaning words land poorly, so just show up and by your presence demonstrate your love and support. Check out this message for more wisdom from Scripture on how to be a present friend. This series explores God’s design for friendship and offers practical, biblical wisdom for building healthy, life-giving relationships. Throughout this series, we will learn how to choose friends wisely, show up faithfully, navigate conflict, and grow together through honesty and grace.

    Friend-ology | Created for Connection | Jessica Zawalich

    This series explores God’s design for friendship and offers practical, biblical wisdom for building healthy, life-giving relationships. Throughout this series, we will learn how to choose friends wisely, show up faithfully, navigate conflict, and grow together through honesty and grace. Ultimately, the series points us to Jesus as our truest friend and the foundation for all meaningful connection. It all starts by recognizing and accepting that we were not created to be isolated, do-it-yourself individuals. Rather, in the very beginning, God said that it wasn't good for the human to be alone. Then He created man and woman, two people to live and work in relationship, just as God created humans to live and work in relationship with Him. Jesus modeled this too. So join us for this important diagnostic message and get ready to dig in! Join us for service every Sunday at 9:15am or 11:00am (EST). Here are ways to connect with us! Text TODAY to 937-358-6565 to let us know you decided to say 'Yes!' to Jesus leading your life.

    Plot Twist | The Eunuch | Mark Coulter

    This story includes three main actors: God, Philip, and the Ethiopian official. Phillip is in the middle of a incredible revival when God sends him to a desert road. The Ethiopian official is traveling home after worshipping God in Jerusalem, but his experience was limited because he would have been barred from entering the Temple precincts. Why was he barred? Because he was not physically sound, that is, he was a eunuch. But God sends Philip as a plot twist to meet the Eunuch, who had been excluded from the Temple, with the good news about Jesus, the One who welcomes all who believe. A good plot twist makes for a great movie! A good plot twist puts us on the edge of our seats as we see characters' lives move into a different direction and a new reality. When God steps into our lives, we can experience our own plot change. God can take away our guilt. God can bring healing when we least expect it. God can provide for us when we feel like hope is lost. God can see value in us when no one else does. Join us as we look at the stories of four people in scripture who experienced a divine plot twist. You’ll learn how God wants to step into your life and change your story.
