Pastor Aaron continues our God Is series by examining God’s holiness, as seen in Isaiah's vision in Isaiah 6:1-8. We explore the true meaning of holiness as being "set apart.” We discover that encountering God's holiness reveals our sinfulness while offering the opportunity for transformation. Through Christ's work on the cross, we recognize we are forgiven and also made righteous, empowering us to live as "set apart" individuals. We are challenged to embrace our calling as being sent to bring God’s transformational presence into every aspect of our lives and the world around us.

Pastor Brad Holmes continues our God Is series by looking at how God is trustworthy. We discover how God remains trustworthy even when we are tired, stuck, or confused, challenging us to trust him in all circumstances. We see how God's trustworthiness can change our lives and purpose. We are encouraged to keep our focus on Jesus, trusting in his faithfulness to guide us through life's challenges and towards the greater plans He has for us.

Pastor Jeff Manion continues our God Is sermon series by exploring the profound generosity of God. We discover God's generosity displayed in creation through his abundant provision in nature and our daily food. We see the ultimate expression of God's generosity through Jesus Christ, understanding how his self-giving love transforms our identity and motivates our own generosity. We are challenged to reflect God's generous character in our lives. We realize that as we give, we join God's ongoing conversation of generosity that has been happening since the creation of the world.

Pastor Jeff Manion continues our God Is sermon series by examining the often misunderstood attribute of God's jealousy. We explore the distinction between envy and jealousy, uncovering how God's jealousy stems from his deep love and desire for relationship with his people. We are challenged to identify and confront the "counterfeit gods" in our lives that compete for our ultimate allegiance. We discover that God's jealousy is actually good news, protecting us from the destructive pursuit of "it" and guiding us toward a more fulfilling relationship with him. We are called to replace our counterfeit gods with a growing affection for Jesus, recognizing that God's jealousy is an invitation to align ourselves with his love for us.

Pastor Brad Holmes continues our God Is series by unpacking God as Peace through the story of Gideon in Judges 6. God reveals himself to Gideon in the midst of Gideon’s fear and weakness. Gideon recognizes God as the one who brings peace. We see how God is not only the God of peace, but through Philippians 4:5b-7, Paul makes it clear that God wants to be the source of peace for our lives. We’re challenged to run to God for peace, instead of the false promises of peace offered by the world.

Pastor Aaron Buer continues our God Is series by looking at Acts 17, where Paul proclaims the reality of the one true God. We discover that God is entirely self-sufficient, lacking nothing, and has created humanity to find life and purpose in knowing and worshiping him. We are challenged that while God needs nothing, he wants us and desires us to know him. We are encouraged to reorient our lives around worshiping God rather than things that do not satisfy us. We are invited to experience the abundant life that comes from rightly worshiping the generous, self-existent God who needs nothing from us yet graciously invites us into a relationship with himself.
