Consecrated Living
sermon Series
5 weeks: October 26 - November 23
To be set apart in the way of Jesus is not just a belief, but a way of life. Over this 5-week series, we’ll explore how the way of Jesus reshapes how we use power, care for our bodies, handle money, and cultivate gratitude. Each week you'll be invited into a rhythm of prayer, Scripture, and a practical response, helping us move from hearing to living the truth of God’s Word.

Giving is part of how we worship God and trust Him with our finances. Please prayerfully consider how God is leading you to give in the coming year.

church vision process
Over the past year, we began the process of assessing, evaluating, and discerning God's specific vision and calling for our church. A team of 12 was guided through this 8 month process with a coach through Knot Navigators. We are now in the second phase of vision work with our staff and elders in fall of 2025. Read updates and what to expect for broader sharing with the congregation in 2026.
