Opportunities to Glorify His Name

May 3, 2026 Pastor Sheika - Witness Mongolia View Full Service
Scripture Text: Matthew 25:14-29

The parable emphasizes proactive service over passive inaction and encourages individuals to take risks and use their skills to make a positive impact, rather than hoarding them out of fear. Many read this story in isolation and walk away thinking it’s all about working hard or facing judgment.  However, when we read the parable within the broader context of Matthew 24 and 25, its true message comes into focus. It’s not a call to live in fear of judgment but an encouragement to be faithful with the Gospel, resting in Christ’s finished work and grace. This shift in understanding turns fear into faith and hope.

The Great Betrayal

April 26, 2026 Michael Bouterse - Thrive View Full Service
Scripture Text: John 13:18-38

It was the night before Jesus was crucified, and all the disciples were leaning in to listen as their beloved rabbi taught them one last lesson. But suddenly something dramatic happened: Judas, one of their own number, abruptly got up and disappeared into the night. Why did Judas abandon Jesus, and what does his betrayal teach us about true Christian faith? This Sunday we continue our series on John 13-17 by looking at how the tragic example of Judas ironically reveals to us the heart of the gospel.

Washing Feet

April 19, 2026 Mia Alexander View Full Service
Scripture Text: John 13;6-17

Alright, let me just say if there is going to be foot washing—this might be the only time in church where you start wondering, “Did I pick the right socks today?” or “I probably should’ve gotten that pedicure…” Foot washing isn’t exactly something we’re used to. In fact, in our daily lives, we go out of our way not to deal with other people’s feet! And yet, this simple, slightly awkward act carries a powerful message. When Jesus Christ knelt down to wash His disciples’ feet, He showed us that love often looks like humility—and sometimes even a little ...

The Meaning of Easter

April 5, 2026 Michael Bouterse - Thrive View Full Service
Scripture Text: John 20:24-31

The resurrection of Jesus is unimaginably wonderful. It means there is real hope for the world and real hope for our lives. But that hope is based on an extraordinary claim: roughly 2,000 years ago, a man named Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead. What would it mean if that really happened? And how do we know that it really happened? This Easter Sunday, Michael Bouterse speaks to why the resurrection is not only wonderful but also believable.

The Triumphal Entry

March 29, 2026 Mike Zeitner View Full Service

The Triumphal Entry of Jesus is laden with Old Testament types and shadows that identify Him as the prophesied Messiah, King, and sacrificial Lamb, moving from public adoration toward his imminent Passion. These are the messages that Paul said are “dim reflections of reality” in I Cor 13. On Palm Sunday, Michael Zeitner invites us into a time of deep reflection as we prepare for Good Friday’s events and the Easter celebration. It marks the beginning of a week where the focus shifts from celebration to a solemn remembrance of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross and the gift of salvation.

Scripture Text: Haggai 2:1-9

To anticipate the celebration of Easter and the resurrection, Michael Bouterse continues a two-part series on revival from the Old Testament book of Haggai.

In this Sunday’s message on Haggai 1, we’ll see how God revives the church by leading her through crisis to conviction and conversion.

Scripture Text: Ephesians 3:14-21

This week Michael Bouterse continues our study of Ephesians by teaching on Paul's longest prayer in Scripture. Our lives are beset with any number of problems.

The Process of Personal Reconciliation to God

Series: Ephesians -
January 18, 2026 Mike Zeitner View Full Service
Scripture Text: Ephesians 2:1-10

Many of us understand grace as a theological position. And it is delightfully that. Undeserved, Unending, Unearned, Unwavering grace is God's inexhaustible love and absolute acceptance of us, coupled with his unabashed delight in us. Grace brings us adoption into God's family, a new identity, a new life, new power, new capacity, and God's full protection - with absolutely no strings attached! But grace is much more than a theological position. Equally and simultaneously, grace is an actual environment, an atmosphere, a realm, a present-tense reality that weaves around and through every moment of even our worst day. ...
