You and I get baptized because we need our sins washed away. So, why in the world did Jesus, who is the sinless Son of God, get baptized? That's what we'll discover in this message.

Preparing the Way
Repentance isn't something that normally comes up in everyday conversation, but it is something that God requires of all of us and is necessary to maintain a relationship with Him and the people we interact with on a daily basis.
A Messy Family Tree
You may have gotten the impression that Jesus only allows "good people" into his eternal family. Well, in this message we'll be uncovering exactly what kind of people qualify as we comb through Jesus' family tree.
Forward Living
When we feel like we're trapped between bad options and worse ones, we tend to glamorize the past, blame those we love, and forget that God is with us. As we prepare for the New Year, we're going to learn that trusting in God is always our best option.
Our Waiting is Done
Going to the birthday party of someone you barely know can be awkward. That's why for Jesus' birthday we're spending some time getting to know him better.
Witnessing Promises Fulfilled
We ask a simple question in this message, "When you find yourself having to wait for any and every reason, are you looking for Jesus in the middle of it all?"
Embracing God’s Plan
Though familiar to many, the angelic announcement to the virgin Mary provides profound insight into the divine nature of Jesus Christ. It also exemplifies the faith and trust required to embrace God's plans for our lives.
The Blessing in the Waiting
In this fast-paced world of overnight shipping, lightning-fast food delivery, and high-speed internet, patience is a rare virtue. We often find it difficult to pause and just wait. Yet, sometimes that's exactly what God calls us to do, because in the waiting, there are many hidden blessings to be discovered.
Encouragement
Jesus made it possible for you and me to have peace with God our Father. Now, we get to pay that peace forward by advocating for those whom God has placed in our lives.
Generosity
The early Christian church modeled for us how to fulfill our mission of leading people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and it all has to do with physical and spiritual generosity.
