Get Ready for Sunday

It’s easy to assume that what we see is all there is. But what if the biggest realities shaping your life right now are the ones you’re missing? When pressure rises, are you responding to what’s actually happening or only what feels most threatening? This matters because how we see shapes how we trust.

This Sunday, we’ll be in 2 Kings 6:8-23, where God pulls back the curtain on a tense moment to reveal a deeper reality at work. Faith doesn’t deny difficulties, but it does see beyond it. This passage reminds us that God’s presence and power are often far closer than we realize, especially when life feels uncertain and God appears to be distant.

Here’s a question to sit with this week: Where might fear be driving your decisions because you’re focused on what you can see instead of what God has promised?

Let’s come ready to have our eyes lifted, our faith strengthened, and our hearts steadied by the God who surrounds his people.

Looking forward to worshiping with you this Sunday.

What's Happening


21 Days | Corporate Prayer & Worship

Week 3: Steward Our Mission  |  February 2-6 at 6:00am

As we begin the final week of 21 Days of Prayer & Fasting, we’re turning our focus to how we steward our mission God has entrusted to us—down the hall, across the street and into the world. 

Let’s ask God to deepen our burden for the lost, sharpen our awareness of gospel opportunities, and give us boldness to live sent in everyday life. Start each day seeking the Lord together as we pray for gospel impact through the Forward Initiative. We hope you're able to join us, starting Monday at 6:00 am in the Worship Center.

Commitment Day is February 8

FORWARD: By Faith. On Mission. Together.

As we move toward Commitment Sunday on February 8, we’re continuing to lean in together through prayer, faith, and obedience. That day, we’re trusting God for two things:

  1. $300,000 in kickstart giving and

  2. $3 million in three-year commitments

All for the sake of advancing our mission of equipping Kingdom Investors.

Watch for Your Forward Commitment Packet. Keep an eye on your mailbox next week! Your family’s packet will include a commitment card, return envelope, a letter from Pastor Keith, and an informational brochure to help guide your prayerful response and commitment to the Forward initiative.

Let's keeping moving forward by faith, on mission—together.
