    Surrendering Like You Mean It | Following Jesus: Wk. 3

    As the semester winds down and accountability fades, how do you keep your faith from hitting a summer desert? For the last Salt Company of the year, in this final message of the "Following Jesus" series, we dive into Luke 9 to see how Jesus responds to those who want to follow Him with a "but first" mentality. Discover why following Jesus requires a total commitment that outranks our comfort, our reputations, and even our closest relationships. Learn how to fight the "sedation" of the summer by creating a game plan of surrender—from your mornings to your money—so you can return in the fall stronger than ever. Preached by Jose Concepcion.

    Stewarding What Jesus Gave You | Following Jesus: Wk 2

    What are you doing with the "talents" you’ve been entrusted with? In week 2 of our "Following Jesus" series, looking at Matthew 25 we explore how following Jesus means moving from being an owner of your life to a faithful manager of His resources. Whether it’s your time, relationships, or unique giftings, God hasn't called you to play it safe out of fear, but to take kingdom risks with bold ambition. Learn how to overcome the trap of comparison and live for the ultimate reward: hearing the words, "Well done, good and faithful servant." Preached by Jose Concepcion.

    Following Jesus to Japan

    Have you ever wondered why some people feel the need to take following Jesus to the extreme of going all the way across the world? Thought, what do they even do? Why do they think that is what they are supposed to do? Or why would they even do something so crazy? Tonight we get to hear from two of our friends about these very things as we get the privilege of sending them out from their time with our ministry, to go be ambassadors for Christ in a completely different country!

    Sharing About Who Made You New | Following Jesus: Wk 1

    Are you tired of trying to "do better" only to end up in the same old habits? This week as we kickoff our final series of the semester for Salt Company called, "Following Jesus", looking at 2 Corinthians 5, we explore the radical truth that God doesn't just make you better; He makes you new. Discover what it means to be a "new creation" whose past is dead and gone, replaced by a permanent identity in Christ. Which gives us a new calling as ambassadors of reconciliation, learning how to courageously share the message of Jesus with those around us. Whether you’re looking for a fresh start or the motivation to live out your faith, it’s time to embrace the identity and purpose you were made for. Preached by Jose Concepcion.

    The Lost Son | The God Who Seeks: Wk 3

    How does God react when we disobey Him? In the conclusion of our series, "The God Who Seeks," we dive into the end of Luke 15 to explore the famous parable of the Prodigal Son—and the often-overlooked older brother. Whether you feel "bankrupt" from reckless living in a "far country" or find yourself struggling with the entitlement of the older brother, this message reveals a Father who outruns judgment to embrace the broken. Discover why God’s response to our lostness isn't a backhand or a transaction, but a celebration of grace. Preached by Jose Concepcion.

    The Lost Coin | The God Who Seeks: Wk 2

    This week in, "The God Who Seeks" series, we explore Luke 15:8-10 which reveals the relentless nature of God’s pursuit of His people. Just as a woman diligently searches for a lost silver coin, Jesus illustrates that God is not a passive observer but an active seeker who views every individual as immensely valuable. We dive into the necessity of biblical repentance—turning from the darkness of sin toward the light of Christ—and the joy that erupts in heaven when a single person takes this step. Whether you feel hidden by your mistakes or burdened by your past, discover why God’s mission to find you never fails. Preached by Jose Concepcion.

    The Lost Sheep | The God Who Seeks: Wk 1

    This week we kickoff a new series called The God Who Seeks as we dive verse-by-verse into Luke 15 to answer one fundamental question: What is God really like? Moving past the distorted images of a frustrated or disappointed deity, we discover a Shepherd who tirelessly pursues the lost with a heart full of grace. Whether you feel like an outcast or have been "playing it safe" in the 99, this message reveals how Jesus accepts us in our mess without leaving us there. Join us as we explore why our repentance leads to a celebration in heaven and how we can reflect that same seeking heart toward others. Preached by Jose Concepcion.

Discover how the gospel serves as the ultimate anchor for these relationships, protecting us from sin and sustaining us through life’s inevitable seasons of adversity. Join us as we learn how to prioritize "the God who is experienced through others" and why building these relational muscles now is vital for your future. Preached by Russ Griffith.
