In the Beginning - FAITH IS...

After Adam and Eve turned from God toward sin, humanity spent generations trying to figure out its relationship with God. Today we take a look at the lives of several figures in Genesis and how their faith was shown and made their lives pleasing to God.

In the Beginning - Heart, Soul, Mind, Strength

In the Beginning - Made to Worship

Continuing our journey through the Bible, today we look into the fall of man and Satan's plan to destroy mankind. But we also look at how worship just may be our most important weapon.

In the Beginning - From Which We Came

As we begin our journey through the Bible, we need to first understand what happened at the beginning in order to understand the whole story. Today we look at our beginning and what that has to say about how we relate with God, our Creator. (Please note that there was a problem with our mic which caused a decrease in volume around the 13 minute mark. However, we were able to boost the volume so that all the sermon is still audible.)

Believe It!

God tends to draw people into situations that push them outside their comfort. This can be scary but it is also where the miraculous happens. Today we look at 2 Kings 2 to see how we can consistently live by faith to see God work through us.

Speaker: Pastor Steven Lucas
Text: 2 Kings 2

Marching Orders

Sometimes the monotony of life can convince us that there really isn't anything of serious significance or consequence happening. The reality is that we are in the middle of a serious spiritual battle that has been raging since the beginning. Today we look at 2 Timothy to find the marching orders Paul gives soldiers in Christ.

Speaker: Pastor Steven Lucas

Get Back Up

When our lives seem to fall apart, we tend to make mistakes we never thought we could make and then beat ourselves up. Today we look at the example of Peter and how God restores us and gives us truth to hold on to so that we can get back up.
