  • Give Up the Mask

    Give Up the Mask
    Apr 1 2026
    Pastor DJ Uithoven- We all wear masks—at church, at work, even with God. But Lent isn’t a season for pretending. It’s a time to bring our real selves into the light. Jesus warns against performative faith: doing the right things for the wrong reasons, putting on a show while hiding our struggles. When we give up the need to appear perfect, we find deeper connection with God and others. Because the one who sees us fully, loves us fully.

  • Give Up the Pride

    Give Up the Pride
    Mar 23 2026
    Pride is sneaky. It doesn’t always look like arrogance—it can show up in defensiveness, entitlement, or the refusal to admit we’re wrong. Lent begins with an invitation to humility: to follow Jesus, who “made himself nothing” and chose the downward path of love. Giving up pride isn’t about thinking less of ourselves—it’s about thinking of ourselves less. As we give up the need to always be right, strong, or first, we make room for grace to reshape our hearts.

  • Give Up the Lies

    Give Up the Lies
    Mar 21 2026
    We all live by stories we tell ourselves. Stories about who we are, what we need, and how the world works. Some of those stories are true but many are not. Over time, these false narratives can quietly shape our hearts, fueling fear, control, or shame. This time of year invites us to bring those stories into the light. Jesus promises that truth leads to freedom, not condemnation. As we give up the lies we’ve learned to live by, God begins the renewing work of reshaping our minds and restoring our hearts.

  • Give Up the Grudge

    Give Up the Grudge
    Mar 11 2026
    Pastor Justin McKennon- We all carry wounds—but when those wounds turn into grudges, they start to carry us. Holding onto bitterness can feel justified, even protective, but it ends up being a prison. Forgiveness is hard—but it’s not about excusing the hurt; it’s about releasing its hold. Lent challenges us to unclench our fists and let go of the offenses that are slowly stealing our peace.

  • Built to Last

    Built to Last
    Mar 4 2026
    As Paul brings this epic letter to a close, he reminds the Church of something crucial: we are strengthened by a God who builds things to last. Not temporary fixes or shallow faith, but deep-rooted resilience. The same God who began a good work in you is the One who will carry it to completion. In a world where so much feels fragile and fleeting, this message calls us to trust in a strength that doesn't wear out, break down, or fade away.

  • Called and Gifted

    Called and Gifted
    Feb 24 2026
    As Paul closes his letter, he gives a surprising amount of attention to people—ordinary believers with extraordinary faithfulness. He names over two dozen individuals, reminding us that God’s work happens not just through apostles, but through households, coworkers, risk-takers, and hard workers. This week we’ll explore what it means to value people over platform, and how the Church grows through humble, relational investment.

  • Shoulder to Shoulder

    Shoulder to Shoulder
    Feb 24 2026
    As Paul wraps up his message to the Romans, he doesn’t just offer blessings—he asks for backup. Paul knows that gospel work is hard and that no one is called to do it alone. This week reminds us that while not all of us are called to preach or travel like Paul, all of us are called to link arms through prayer, encouragement, and generosity. The mission advances when the church moves shoulder to shoulder.

  • Holy Ambition

    Holy Ambition
    Feb 20 2026
    Paul reflects on his ministry calling—to preach the gospel where Christ has not been spoken. His driving ambition isn’t fame or comfort—it’s that people who’ve never heard would hear. Paul models a holy ambition: a life gripped by the gospel and compelled to share it. This week challenges us to consider what shapes our ambition. Are we content with comfort, or are we willing to live for something eternal—something that reaches beyond us?
