    The Lies Money Tells

    This Sunday, Pastor Mike continues our journey through Ecclesiastes by exposing the lies money tells us. Money promises satisfaction, comfort, and security—but does it actually deliver? In Ecclesiastes 5:10–6:12, Solomon reveals how wealth can quietly move from our wallets to our hearts, becoming an idol that promises what only God can provide. Whether you're chasing "just a little more," looking for peace in financial stability, or placing your confidence in earthly resources, this message will challenge you to examine where your hope truly rests. Join us as we discover why money is a terrible savior and why Jesus alone is our source of contentment, rest, and security.

    The Promise Still Stands

    When things get difficult, we find out if what God promised us in the Holy Spirit is real, a true experience. Pastor Mike Patz opens the Book of Acts on Pentecost Sunday. There is an encounter of the Spirit- subsequent to salvation- that is available to everyone willing to seek! Have you encountered God through the gift of the Holy Spirit? One of the great blunders of the Western world is to believe that intellectual study of God is the only way. There is a God in heaven Who has pulled back the veil and come close to us. We can know Him, through encountering the Holy Spirit! Jesus will act through us as we move forward in the power of the Holy Spirit.

    The Weight of Things

    Do you recall the recent phenomena online that was the Blaspheme Challenge, with those publicly making declarations against God? We live in a culture that has lost their reverence.Pastor Mike Patz continues the series, What's the Point, a look through Ecclesiastes, at meaning, purpose, and the point behind it all. He opens up chapter 5, "Let your words be few... Many words mark the speech of a fool." The weight of things. Do we know how to fear the Lord? Holy things must carry weight! When all feels hevel, vapor, meaningless, God is the true place of meaning. God has weight! He is near; we must be truly aware of His holiness and glorious power. He deserves our awe, for our God is an awesome God!

    Surprised by Joy

    What was it like to be the woman who became pregnant with God's Son? For thirty years she has kept the secret.  Imagine that you're Mary- you remember the angels, the prophecies, the shepherds, the magi. Pastor Mike Patz brings a timely word, Loose Your Grip, from John chapter 2. Jesus has now begun to bring His teachings, and here is the first miracle, at the wedding of Cana. A wedding was a time of celebration and communal joy, and what brought the joy was the wine.  Running out of wine would have been the greatest catastrophe! Have you ever been waiting for a promise to come to pass? Mary had! She says, "Son, do something!" Since Jesus only does what He sees the Father doing, His answer of "not yet..." was not what she wanted to hear. Mary must surrender to the timing. Waiting patiently on the Lord will often wreck your timeline. But the joy we crave is only found on the other side of surrender. Jesus will surprise you with joy!

    From Alone to Never Alone

    Isolation, loneliness, and struggle are times that can feel meaningless. Life's hardest moments are usually quiet times, when we are alone. We are heavy, and when we break because we are without a comforter. Pastor Oscar Roche continues the series, What's the Point, a look through Ecclesiastes, at meaning, purpose, and the point behind it all.Pain can either draw us toward, or push us away, from God. He has promised to be the God of all comfort! With us always, we never need to walk alone.The wise one moves from being alone to "never alone." We can walk in the light and have fellowship with God and each other. Connection, dependence, and looking to Him are vital to live a full and passionate life.

    The Urgency of the Whole Truth

    There is salvation in no other name than Jesus! So when people get around us, do they recognize that we have been with Jesus?Pastor Mike Patz continues our Reorient series, saying, "All that Jesus began to do, we continue..." We are looking for Book of Acts happenings to abound in us today. The Lord added to their number, day by day, those who were being saved.Let us be faithful to speak of the things Jesus has done in and through us, the urgency of the whole truth. Half truths create complacency, but the full truth creates urgency. Why was the early church so urgent in sharing their faith? They were convinced of the goodness of God as well as the judgment of God. We must live ready to meet our Maker!

    Wait For It

    We are a culture who hates to wait! Addicted to the dopamine hit of the immediate, the temptation is to get lost in scrolling. Pastor Mike Patz continues our Reorient series saying, "All that Jesus began to do, we continue..." We are looking for the Book of Acts to be happening in us today. The key is the promise Jesus made, "You will be baptized in the Holy Spirit." If you want the power of Acts 2, you need to wait like they did in Acts 1. This power comes from God, and the waiting time to receive is about preparing for the power. Be willing to wait on Him, and be fully filled with the Holy Spirit today!

    Communion is more important than we realize

    Pastor Mike Patz continues our look at the gaps between the early church and the modern church in the Reorient series. All that Jesus started we continue... we are looking for the Book of Acts to be happening in us today. The devotions of the disciples included "the breaking of bread", which we now know as the Lord's Supper, or communion. The Book of Acts church was regularly remembering Jesus, the Passover Lamb, through celebrating communion together. If you're oppressed, afflicted, or depressed, the breaking of bread is good news for you! When the bread is broken, the presence of Jesus comes closer. He breaks bondage, heals, and sets free! May our expectation of experiencing Jesus being present with us become a greater reality, right here, right now!
