Desperation Truths
Do Christians need to bother studying the Old Testament? How can Israel's history even be relevant for us today? Join us as we dig into the Old Testament book of 1 Samuel and discover a shocking truth – just as Israel longed for a king, we actually still long for a king to rule over our hearts today! Of course, for many of us, the king on the throne is ourselves. But what kind of king is actually good for us? What does the heart of that king need to be like? How can we find a king who will truly protect, love, and serve us? Join us as we explore these questions!

Creating Spaces
We believe that by 2022, through God’s grace and power, we will see 2,000 people baptized and growing in relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community. One key step? Creating spaces to reach more faces.

Talk It Over
Don't just listen to the message. Let it speak into your life. Talk it over with your friends, coworkers, family, or Grow Group.

We'll continue to celebrate Advent as we ponder the heart of the True King that we all need to rule our lives - especially in this cultural season of busyness, consumerism, and self-indulgence.
