Honest to God


Last year we did a series called "Honest to God" that dealt with questions and struggles to our faith. As we go through our current study in Job, we thought it could be helpful to repost these messages.

We're Starting the Book of Hebrews


Starting tomorrow, we invite you to join us in reading the book of Hebrews. We’re challenging each member to read a chapter of the Bible a day. We call this the Bible Reading Challenge.

Tomorrow we’re starting the book of Hebrews. The book of Hebrews is a great book that shows the supremecy of Christ, and what it looks like to place your faith in a great and awesome God. We hope God will use this book to help you grow in your faith.

Torn, This Sunday!


Sometimes life hurts and God feels a million miles away. If you’ve ever been confused about how the concept of a loving God fits into the reality of suffering, you’re not the first person. In the Bible is the story of a man who tried to live for God but watched in confusion as his entire life fell apart. Be our guest on August 9th, as we study the life of Job. Invite your friends and family to this series.

This Sunday


Our new series "Torn" starts this Sunday. We'll be doing a study in the book of Job. For more information check out here.

Mexico Outreach Pool Party






The trip to the pools was a great success. The kids enjoyed a day of swimming, sliding, smiling, and just plain having fun in the sun. The kids had a blast on this special day and showed their appreciation to us in smiles and hugs. Thank you to everyone who supports Mexico Outreach financially and through prayer.
