This week we're beginning our new series exploring what it means for the Word to be alive in us!Av Dustin Strauss

Jesus is calling us to follow him, but we have to set down everything we are and everything we have if we do. The Rich Young Ruler couldn't do it. Can we?Av Dustin Strauss

The history of God reveals how he has walked with and worked through broken people, just like us, to accomplish his will and purposes.Av Scott Koreman

Where do we find fulfillmnet? Where do we find restoration and encouragement? Do we seek the presence of God? Or do we seek to fill ourselves with the things the world has to offer? God has created us for himself, and we will not find wholeness until we rest in him!Av Dustin Strauss

Do we believe that God is enough? Or do we have to take care of ourselves, to hold on to as big a pile of money as we can? God desires that we trust in his abundance, and to know that he will provide.Av Dustin Strauss
