What are the most hoped for things in the world? We could look and look, but Scripture tells us that what we really need and have is available to us through the gospel. In this message, we will look at five things the gospel provides to all believers.

God's goal for followers of Jesus Christ is for us to become more and more like His Son in our actual lives. In this message, Pastor John explores the issue, choices, and strategies for us to have success in our sanctification in Jesus Christ.

We have a choice about how we will live in the world, but it can feel overwhelming when we think of the corruption around us and in us. In this message, we continue to look at how Paul encourages us to see our lives in Christ and to gain spiritual victory.

Once Jesus forgives your sins and you are saved and bound for heaven, does it really matter how you live the rest of your life on earth? Some followers of Jesus remarkably say, "No. It doesn't matter at all." In Romans 6, Paul answers the question in a way that is sure to cause us to realize the true blessing of grace.

Mankind has a horrible record when it comes to keeping promises. God, however, is faithful and good. In this message, Pastor John explores how the broken promise of Adam brought sin and death into the world. But good news! Jesus Christ came to keep the promise in our place.

History and the Bible are full of stories of spectacular sinners. Fortunately, the Bible also contains the story of the spectacular love of God that shines bright against the darkness of the world's most spectacular sinners. In this message, Pastor John looks at one of the most familiar passages in Romans which gives us confidence and hope in God's love for us.

The Bible is about Jesus – The Hope That Changed the World. Because He rose from death, Jesus changed everything, and is now worshiped by nearly 2 billion people all over the world as Lord, Christ, Savior, and God. In His name, the nations will put their hope.

The kingdom of God coexists in the world today with the kingdom of Satan, sin, and separation from God. In the Parable of the Weeds, Jesus introduces us to the Anti-Mission of our enemy, Satan, and how Jesus’ servants support the Mission of the Kingdom.

Nearly three-quarters of the churches in America are either plateaued or in decline. And this year, 3,500 churches will close their doors for good. Among growing churches, many report no conversion growth, meaning that their growth comes merely by Christians switching their membership to churches with better programs, more comfortable facilities, and greater opportunities to blend in with the crowd. In the conclusion to his letter to the church at Colossae, Paul encourages an outward focus through prayer, purpose, and people.

The mission of the church is to “march off the map” in search of people who don’t know Jesus – yet.
