In Exodus 31:1-11 we read about God giving the workmen who built the tabernacle special skills and gifts empowered by the Holy Spirit.  We may ask, "God, why haven't You given me any skills and gifts like that?"  Guess what? In Ephesians 2:10 and other Bible passages our God says, "I have given you gifts and skills and I want to work through you to carry out My special purposes for creating you. Will you surrender your life to Me and ask Me to guide you into seeing and using those skills that I designed just for you to bless yourself and others?

Sometimes we wish God would just show up with an enormous sign that we couldn’t miss. Other times we wish that His influence wouldn’t be so obvious so that we could just ignore it. Join us we continue to take a deeper dive into the Bible this summer as we continue our series “Unknown Favorites”. This week we examine an incredible sign given to Hezekiah in the message entitled “Moving Shadow”.

Ever play the game “rock, paper, scissors”?  If you have, you’ll know exactly what we are talking about in our message: “Rock, Paper, Scissors: How God Changes Our Hearts”.  If you haven’t played the game, learn a new game and hear a great message from Pastor Paul.

With mobile technology, finding the right directions to your destination is just at your fingertips. Even so, we have all experienced the moments when our plans go awry or we are led astray. Your Google map is not intending to mislead you, but there are glitches and dead zones that, on occasion, throw a wrench into the works. Some question the guidance offered in the Bible as misleading, but sometimes a detour is exactly what you need to encounter God. This week we look at a purposeful momentary vision impairment as we continue our series of Unknown Favorites looking at “Blind Arameans” and how powerful God’s grace can be.

Have you ever wondered, "Does God even like me?"  This Sunday we are going to hear some powerful words from the prophet Zephaniah.  Although he is considered a minor prophet and you may have to look at the table of contents in your Bible to find his little book, what he tells us can revolutionize our relationship with God.  Listen to see if our take on God lines up with the truth.

Have you ever been so bored in church that you fell asleep? If so, you have something in common with our next Unknown Favorite of the Bible character. Listen in as we look at the book of Acts and see what happened to a young man who took a nap during a sermon.

You’ve heard the saying, “One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure.”  But does anyone think one man’s treasure is another man’s garbage?  Probably not too many people.  Well, this Sunday we reverse the statement and see how sometimes what we think is treasure is actually garbage, and vice versa.  And we’re gonna talk about mushrooms!  Should be fun!

We call Jesus “king” and “lord”, but what does that really mean; how does Jesus as our “king” really affect our lives?  We unpack that in a profound way this Sunday as we celebrate Communion and consider how Jesus is like no other king ever.  Join us!

As we reflect on our freedom this Memorial Day weekend, we remember the need for warriors - men and women who fight and die for justice and righteousness.  We also remember that God has called us all to be warriors.  Come and hear what that means for your life.
