Dating doesn’t have to feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. There’s endless advice out there, but not all of it is helpful. Let’s look at what could make the whole process simpler—maybe you’ve been looking for help (and hope) in the wrong place.Ted Cunningham tarafından oluşturuldu

The story of Daniel in the Bible reminds us that, even in uncertain times, we’re not alone—God is ultimately in control. Our role is to live thoughtfully and peacefully in every season, trusting that we’re part of something far greater than we could ever know.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

"Daniel in the Lions' Den." Sure, it's a Sunday School classic, but it's not just a good story from your childhood. We all face lions' den moments in life—ones that test our faith and character. Are you confident that God is with you even in your darkest days?Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Two kings at their peak. Their empires? Unstoppable. Their confidence? Unshakeable. But it all came crashing down. Why? One simple word: pride. Sounds like a story, but it’s straight from the Bible—and it speaks to us now as much as it did then.John Alexander tarafından oluşturuldu

You're battling anxiety. Your relationships are a wreck. You're feeling the pressure of life closing in. You're in the fire…and you're not fireproof. Daniel and his friends faced the fire, too. Their secret? Full trust in God—even if he didn't show up the way they hoped.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

This one's for anyone who's felt like the odd one out—who's been pressured to compromise beliefs and become more like the world and people around you. The book of Daniel, chapter 1, lets us know: When the world says, "Bend," you can say, "I'm built to stand."Ryan Leak tarafından oluşturuldu

Starting the Bible from page one? It doesn't take long before you're buried in lists, genealogies, and Old Testament rules…BORING. But you know spending time in God's word is important. So, where to start? Start with this message—we’ll help you out.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Feeling stuck? Life can throw some curveballs—sometimes it's hard to know what to do next.

When someone says "I promise," what's your response? Maybe you believe it…or maybe you know better. How have broken promises impacted your faith? God promises to hear you when you pray—and truly trusting that could make all the difference.Guest Speaker Adam Weber tarafından oluşturuldu

Who are you, really? Not just your name, age, or what you do. Who are you at your core—and how do you discover that? It takes God's truth to answer this question with confidence and conviction. Everything changes when you discover your true identity in who he says you are.Guest Speaker Jon Weece tarafından oluşturuldu

For most of us, there's a bit of a gap between our intentions and our actions. You want to stop eating sugar...but then a coworker brings donuts. The same goes for living out our faith. You want to love your neighbor...but people can be frustrating. So, what's standing in the way of living out your faith—and what if you truly lived what you believe…

If you plant an apple tree in your backyard, it won't grow in your front yard instead. Trees bloom where they're planted. Same goes for life. The seeds you plant with your time and energy will ultimately be the ones to grow over time. Question is…are you putting your energy in the places God has for you?…

When it comes to life's tough stuff, you have a choice. No, you can't choose the burdens you'll carry, but you can choose to help others carry theirs.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Imagine this: joy that isn’t tied to your circumstances, love that's deep and real, peace that surpasses all understanding. If that sounds too good to be true, it’s because it is—at least on your own. But with the Holy Spirit guiding your life, true transformation becomes a reality.John Alexander tarafından oluşturuldu

Maybe church for you has been all about dos, don’ts, consequences, and fear—far from anything you'd call "free." But hear this: it’s not meant to be that way. There is true freedom to be found in a relationship with Jesus.Ted Cunningham tarafından oluşturuldu

Every parent knows that handing over the car keys for the first time is a significant (and nerve-wracking) milestone. Because it's true: the driver decides the destination—and the path taken to get there. So, who's in the driver’s seat of your life? Loosening your grip on the wheel can lead to more freedom than you think.…

There’s a time and place to push back and fight for what you think is right. But figuring that out can be tricky. Take Jesus, for example. He leaned in and pushed back on important things because some things are worth fighting for—but not everything. So, how do you prioritize your pushback? If you push back on everything, you lessen your influence …

Seeking approval from others can feel satisfying, but what if it doesn't align with your true self? Besides, whose opinion truly matters in the end—others' or God's? The real question to ponder is: Whose approval shapes the way you live your life?Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Trauma isn't merely a memory—it's a heavy weight, shaping every aspect of my life. But I'm refusing to let it define me.

With each step toward healing, I find strength and hope.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Doubts can plague my every step, whispering inadequacy and unworthiness. Will I ever measure up? Insecurity grips me, leaving me feeling small and insignificant. Yet, in the uncertainty, I find acceptance and belonging in Jesus, who sees beyond my flaws, and offers unconditional love and purpose.John Alexander tarafından oluşturuldu

In the suffocating grip of depression, every day feels like an uphill battle. Darkness consumes most of my thoughts and emotions. Will this heaviness ever lift? Despite the isolation, I cling to the belief that Jesus, the light of the world, will pierce through the shadows, bringing relief and comfort.…

On Easter, we celebrate that the stone has been rolled away, the tomb is empty, and Jesus Christ has risen from the dead. But the question is: Why? Why did God allow his son Jesus Christ to die a brutal death on the cross? What difference does Easter make?Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

Healthy people don’t visit a doctor; sick people do. That’s why waiting rooms are full of sick and messy people who need help. Jesus made it clear: He came for sick people. That’s why churches are also full of sick and messy people who need help. Let’s embrace the mess.Ted Cunningham tarafından oluşturuldu

Ever feel stuck? Easy to get stuck in the same habits, relationships, or even the past. Jesus often sought out people who seemed stuck, and then offered them a way forward. What if God wants you to watch for opportunities to reach people who need to be unstuck?Guest Speaker Bob Merritt tarafından oluşturuldu

Every store has an “as-is” section. Items with a flaw, so you buy them “as-is.” People seem to carry an “as-is” label as well – a defect, weakness, or shortcoming. But what if you didn’t have to accept your fate? What if Jesus could help? Maybe a better question: What if God wants you to remove obstacles to get yourself or those you love to Jesus?…

The pursuit of beauty is a multi-billion-dollar industry. Makeup, diets, workouts, fashion, skincare—you get the picture. And no matter how hard we try (or how much we spend), that kind of beauty is only skin-deep…and inevitably fades. So, what is true beauty, and how should we pursue it?Ryan Leak tarafından oluşturuldu

Maybe you think you've done too much, that there's no turning back from the path and people you've chosen to follow. But not only are you NOT too far gone for God—God is actively pursuing you. He knows your name, and he is ready to breathe new life into your story.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu

You've been given one life. And you're wired to want to make a difference with it. But with all of the issues in our world—homelessness, food insecurity, mental health, wars, relief efforts, addiction, and more—it can feel easiest to opt out of making an impact. Don't lose hope. As long as you’ve got breath in your lungs, you can make a difference.…

Today's world and the culture we live in can be complicated. How do you engage with it in a healthy way without being caught up in it?

We all have things from our past that negatively affect our future—that's just life. And when some of those things were decisions made by family members before us, it can feel impossible to break free. But the choices you make now can start to undo those generational cycles and move your family toward a healthier future.…

Marriage is amazing. And fun. And...really tough. That's all true. But over time, things can start to get a little more tough and a little less lovely. It's possible to build a marriage that lasts (and is fun!) no matter how long you've been together.Ted Cunningham tarafından oluşturuldu

If we're honest, we don't know how to manage the ever-changing influence of technology in our own lives, much less the lives of our family members. Privacy, what? Influencers, who? Harmful content…seriously? If you’re ready to take back your family from the grips of technology, godly wisdom is the name of the game.…

We'll worship with Eagle Brook Music and hear a message from Jason Strand challenging us in the power of prayer as we head into the new year. Invite friends and family to tune in with you from wherever they are!…

You probably know what Christmas is about. You've heard about the angels, shepherds, Mary, and Joseph…but do you know the “why” behind it? Why did Jesus come to earth as a baby—and how does that impact your life now? It's not just a celebration of what happened once upon a time—it's an invitation into new life today and every day because of Jesus.…

We've all heard about the importance of forgiveness. But to forgive and forget? Sometimes, that just feels impossible. You might be surprised at what the Bible has to say about it—and at how freeing forgiveness can truly be.Ryan Leak tarafından oluşturuldu

Sometimes, holding onto the things you knew can hold you back from something even better. Sure, what’s tried and true feels comfortable and safe, but the hope of the future God has for you? That's worth letting go for.John Alexander tarafından oluşturuldu

So you're a people-pleaser. And while your intentions are good, you probably agree—it's holding you back. Don't miss out on the life God has for you by prioritizing other people's opinions. God values you deeply—imperfections and all.Jason Strand tarafından oluşturuldu
