What Happens When We Die? - 2 Corinthians 5:1-9

ON SUNDAY MAY 11 @ 9:30 & 11:00

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE DIE?

Revelation 21:1-5 | Benjamin Franklin summarized one great truth about human life when he said, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” But death is far less certain than one may think. Is death it? Despite all the speculation from culture and even church tradition what actually happens at death? And what happens next?

Why Do Bad Things Happen? - Job 2:10

On May 4, Patrick Edwards continues his series called, I Have a Question, with this message on Why Do Bad Things Happen.

Job 2:10 | If God is good and all-powerful, then surely, He wouldn’t allow pain? Or even if He did allow it to bad people, then not good people…right? But sometimes the bad in this world thrive and the good suffer. What about the innocent born into poverty, famine, or abuse? Suffering seems to be an obvious indictment against God and even against His existence. What is His answer?

Can I Trust the Bible? - Mark 16:8

On April 27 at 11:00, Patrick Edwards has a message called, Can I Trust the Bible, part 1 of his series, I Have a Question.
Mark 16:9-20 | As we ask our questions, we must be first clear on where we’re looking for the answers. The Bible claims that it is trustworthy, but can we believe that? Isn’t that a self-referential argument and claim? As we kick off our new series we begin with the most basic and essential question, “Can I trust the Bible?”.

Deconstruction and the Resurrection - Acts 9:1-31

[ 11:00 Service ] On Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025, Patrick teaches about the apostle Paul, from Acts 9:1-31.
We wouldn’t hold the beliefs we do unless we thought they were right, just as we wouldn’t live the lives we do unless we thought it was best. But, often, we become so stuck in those ways that we’re unwilling to consider anything else. The Resurrection of Jesus requires us to each deconstruct our lives, however, enabling us to see there is something better than we ever could have imagined.

The Crucifixion and the Powers - Colossians 2:13-15

On Good Friday, April 18, 2025, Patrick teaches from Colossians 2:13-15.
What happened on the cross? How did the death of Jesus obtain salvation from sin? What exactly makes Good Friday so good? This Good Friday we’re invited to explore how the death of Jesus did even more than just rescue us from Hell but was the moment of victory of the visible and invisibles powers of this present world.

Where We're Going - Genesis 46-50

On April 13, Patrick concludes the Genesis series with this message called, Where We're Going from Genesis 46-50.
As God brings Jacob and his family into safety and abundance, we see that even then the journey isn’t over. Egypt isn’t their final destination. God’s plans far exceed what they could have imagined and the same is still true today!

The Unfolding of the Masterpiece - Genesis 42-45

On April 6, Patrick brings a message called, the Unfolding of the Masterpiece, from Genesis 42-45. 
When it rains, it pours. It never feels like just one challenge pops up in our path, but a multitude, and as that chaos builds up, we all eventually get to our breaking point. In those times, however, when all hope or reason seems lost, is most often when God reveals His presence and His perfect purpose. 

Who Are You, O Man? - Genesis 39-41

On March 30, Patrick teaches from Genesis 39-41, with a message called, Who Are You, O Man?

Questions aren’t a bad thing to ask, nor are they forbidden by God. On the contrary, because He loves us and wants a relationship with us God invites and encourages our questions. But we’re to ask them in humility, reverence, and faith. Only through that lens will we then be able to maintain trust and hope in the hardest of circumstances. Only then will we be ready to be used by Him for the great big thing He has planned for us and His world.

The King Who is Coming - Genesis 37-38

On March 23, Patrick talks about the King Who is Coming - Genesis 37:2-38:30

Henry David Thoreau argued, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.” We all struggle to find meaning in our day-to-day lives and often question if there is any bigger purpose. The people we read of in the Bible probably felt no differently, despite what we can now see in hindsight. The story of Jacob’s sons reminds us that God is at work in the little things to bring about His big promise.

Domesticated Jesus: Have We Tamed the Lion of Judah?

ON MARCH 16: Domesticated Jesus with Scott Chafee (the opening clip was a scene from the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe).

Is Jesus really the Lion  of Judah? Or do we prefer a tame Lion, perhaps de-clawed without fangs. It seems that in the western church we have domesticated this young Jewish rabbi who turned the world upside down with his teaching. Many in the church seem to invite Jesus into their already busy lives so that  Jesus can follow US, rather than we following HIM. On Sunday, let's look  at the ways we tend to TAME Jesus into something we like better than the Jesus who calls us to radical obedience and discipleship.
