What Child Is This?
You and I view the Christmas story of the birth of Jesus as History. But what was it like as a shepherd on the hillside that night, or as Mary heard the voice of the angel telling her she would give birth to the Savior of the world? What Child is This will take us on a journey through the lives of those who lived in the moment as we journey toward the birth of Jesus. Join us on this adventure of discovery that will lead us to the celebration of the birth of the Savior of the world, Jesus.
Deception
In his letter to the Ephesian church, the Apostle Paul wrote this: For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (Ephesians 6:12, NIV)
Our struggle isn’t against flesh and blood, but it would be easier if it were. At least then we might be able to see the deception coming. But since we’re fighting a spiritual fight, that makes the battle more difficult.
Our postmodern society is expert at distorting the truth and the most dangerous lies are the ones you never notice. They can twist your thinking in ways you’d never expect and can leave you with a life you never imagined.
In this message series, we explore how to recognize the deception and find the upper hand in this spiritual battle.
Stand
What If?
Scripture is filled with instructions for those who choose to follow Jesus, but the truth is, we don’t always follow those instructions. But what if we did? What if we followed the instructions and principles Jesus laid out for us? What would the outcome be? This series explores the answer those questions. What if? Let’s learn the possibilities of what if together.

Bottom of the Ninth
The only time there’s a bottom of the ninth is when you’re behind. Being behind in baseball is one thing, but what about when you’re behind in life? And we’ve all be there, haven’t we? We’ve been behind financially, relationally, in our work and in so many other areas. Regardless of the area, at some point, you got behind. When it comes to the bottom of the ninth, baseball says, “You may be down, but you’re not out.” This isn’t just true for baseball, this is true for life.
