Pastor Ryan Lenerz

This week’s message looks at Galatians 1:10 and what it means to live as a servant of God rather than a people-pleaser. We explore three situations where the pressure to please people shows up, plus three questions to ask when discerning God’s direction for your life. Who are you trying to please?

Youth Mission Trip Edition

This week, our youth share memories from their mission trip to Indianapolis, Indiana, where they served alongside YouthWorks at food pantries, community gardens, and clothing distribution centers.

Whether you grew up in a church that emphasized the Spirit or one that barely mentioned Him, most Christians today are missing out on what Jesus actually promised: daily access to God’s presence AND supernatural power to…

God Is Missional

Today we add the final piece to the description of the character of God, one which is required based on all the other character traits.

Easter Sunday

Jesus is more than a man. He is the Son of God. The resurrection proves it; and because He lives, we can each hold onto the hope that we will too.
