Pastor Luke began a new series called, "Excerpts from Exodus" with a message about God's faithfulness in Exodus 1-2. He said, "Our faithful God is working even when we don’t see it."

Pastor Luke preached the Gospel of Jesus as we celebrate our Risen Savior on Easter Sunday, by answering the questions: "Who is God?" "Who am I?" "How is Jesus unique?" What does it mean to follow Jesus?" and "Why is this important?"

In the fith Gospel thread, Pastor Luke shared about eternity, from the book "Gospel Threads." Hell is a place of continual rebellion and a final separation. Heaven is a place of Full Reconciliation, Complete Restoration, and an Ultimate Reunion. Our choice is: live without Christ now and die without Christ forever or die with Christ now and live with Christ forever.

Elder, Greg Liestman, preached about living by faith instead of fear and our need for repentance.

Pastor Luke preached a message about what Jesus did to rescue us from our sin. Using David Platt's book "Gospel Threads" he said that Jesus lived the life we could not live, Jesus died the death we deserved to die, and Jesus conquered the enemy we cannot conquer.

Pastor Luke preached a message about the problem we all have with sin. A sobering reality: We have rebelled against God, we are separated from God, and we are dead without God.
