Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches that we often place people into categories that create fear and division, but Jesus shows us that no one is excluded from His grace and invites us to respond with humble faith. He calls us to reject fear, see people as individuals, and live as ambassadors of Jesus by loving others and sharing the gospel.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches that we can look spiritually faithful on the outside while our hearts remain far from God, and he warns that religious habits can hide sin, pride, bitterness, greed, and unbelief. He calls us to let God search our hearts, repent sincerely, and trust Jesus to forgive us and make us new from the inside out.

Pastor Dale Piscura reflects on grief in the church and teaches that believers mourn with hope because Jesus is present, prays for His people, and promises eternal life. He urges the church to guard against hard hearts, stay close to Jesus in life’s storms, and respond with prayer, faith, repentance, and love for others.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti invites us into Mark 6 by showing us the Shepherd-heart of Jesus, who meets our exhaustion with compassion and rest. He reminds us that when we feel like we don’t have enough, Jesus asks what we do have, then multiplies it and sends us out to share His provision.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches that we move from comfort to costly obedience by trusting God’s power and provision when Jesus sends us out dependent on Him rather than on our readiness. He also shows us faith in God’s purpose and providence, because obedience is measured by faithfulness, not outcomes, and God is never absent or out of control even when we cannot see what He is doing.

Founding Pastor Rick Duncan calls us to examine how we respond when Jesus challenges our expectations, confronts our comfort, and asks us to surrender what we would rather control. We see that when resistance rises, we either take offense or take a knee, and we are invited to trust Him fully so that He marvels at our belief rather than our unbelief.

This week Elder Kyle Gustafson walks us through Mark 5 and invites us to slow down and trust Jesus when urgency, interruption, and delay press in on our lives. We see that Jesus is not weakened by waiting, that His presence restores the overlooked and overcomes death itself, and that we are called to keep believing even when His timing does not make sense to us.

This week Lead Pastor Joe Valenti shows us how Jesus intentionally forms us through Mark 5 by leading us into uncomfortable places, toward difficult people, and into risky obedience that forces us to rely on His power instead of our comfort or competence. We remember that Jesus has all authority in heaven and on earth, so we go tell what He has done in our lives, trusting Him to meet us in hard places and use us for His mission.
This week Lead Pastor Joe Valenti invites us to reflect on how God’s grace transforms us like it did Peter and Bill Fay, moving us from self-dependence to God-dependence, from spiritual carelessness to watchful faith, and from living for the temporary to living with eternal hope. We are reminded that God is not finished with us, that our failures do not disqualify us, and that through humility, prayer, and trust in Christ, He conti...
In the third week of our Unstuck series, Founding Pastor Rick Duncan shows us that when shame has us stuck, Jesus comes looking for us, welcomes us back to his table, and restores love for him instead of leaving us on probation. As Jesus restores Peter in John 21, we stop disqualifying ourselves, receive grace and truth, and follow Jesus into renewed purpose as we feed and care for others.

In week two of the Unstuck series, Lead Pastor Joe Valenti reminds us that when growth meets pressure, we often drift by relying on ourselves instead of staying dependent on God. From Peter’s story in Luke 22, we learn that when we mess up or drift, we don’t have to give up, because Jesus sees the battle ahead of us and is already praying to restore and strengthen us.

Kicking off our Unstuck series, Lead Pastor Joe Valenti shows from Luke 5 how Jesus frees us from shame by helping us see it honestly, bring it into the open before God, and stop trying to outwork it on our own. When Peter confesses his unworthiness, Jesus doesn’t pull away but draws near with grace, giving him a new identity and direction, reminding us that lasting freedom from shame comes only through Christ.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti reminds us that storms and hard seasons will come, so we prepare now by building our lives on the rock through hearing Jesus’ words and actually doing them. We start with our hearts, shine where we are, take sin seriously, love our enemies, and practice our faith for the right reasons so our foundation holds and our lives point people to Jesus.

Guest Pastor Karlie Hale points to Mark 4:35–41 to remind us that sudden, painful storms are part of life, but Jesus is with us and keeps His promise to bring us to the other side. Through personal testimony and the disciples’ fear, he calls us to practice fearless faith, trust Jesus to speak peace into our storms, and rely on His strength rather than our own.

Founding Pastor Rick Duncan reminds us that when Jesus is King, ordinary people can bear extraordinary fruit as His kingdom brings light, multiplies what we give, grows what we cannot, and turns small beginnings into places of shelter. He calls us to fully surrender every part of our lives to Jesus, trust Him to work through our faithful obedience, and let His light shine through us for others.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches us that Jesus uses parables, like the story of the sower and the soils, so we do more than just enjoy a good story and instead let God’s Word show us the true condition of our hearts. He calls us to listen closely, let God soften us, and respond in obedience so that the seed of God’s Word in us bears abundant spiritual fruit for God’s kingdom.

This Sunday Pastor Dean Siley shows us from Mark 3:31–35 that Jesus invites us from the outside in, redefining family so that whoever does God’s will and follows him in true discipleship becomes our true brothers, sisters, and mother. He urges us to move beyond mere behavior modification and discouraging inner narratives, letting God’s providence, word, and people transform our hearts so we live with deep joy, healing, and obedienc...
This Sunday, Founding Pastor Rick Duncan teaches from Mark 3 that Jesus is the stronger King who defeats Satan, exposes the bad logic of his enemies, and calls us to decide who we believe he is. We learn that Jesus forgives all who come to him, that the only unforgivable sin is a hard, ongoing rejection of the Spirit’s clear witness about him, and that we respond by letting him rule every part of our lives.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches that we let God’s purpose—not our pressures or preferences—guide us as we follow Jesus in Mark 3. We stay with Jesus in community to learn from him, and he sends us out to share the gospel and serve others.

Lead Pastor Joe Valenti teaches that we honor Jesus as Lord of the Sabbath when we receive God’s gifts (like rest) as grace, not as burdens, and when we refuse to turn gifts into gods or legalistic checklists. We let his authority lead us to choose people over rules, move toward the broken with compassion, and practice simple trust that shapes how we live together.
