My Hope Sunday, Virtual Prayer Rally, EQUIP Conference (Pastoral Emphasis for 3/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday where we welcomed many guests that members invited to join us for this church service. My message was "Hope in the Lord" from Psalm 33:17-22. There are many things in this world that are tempting for us to place our hope in. But we must avoid false hopes. Our hope must be in God's steadfast love. Only God can deliver and save us. One day we all must face judgment and only by faith in Jesus Christ will we be delivered from our deserved punishment to receive eternal salvation. Our hope waits for the Lord. In times like these, we can place our hope in the Lord.

Our next Virtual Prayer Rally is Tuesday from 7 to 8pm. In light of all that's happening in the world, we'll be praying through Acts 1:8... 
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” 
Join us on Webex. If you can't attend, submit your prayer requests online via our Prayer Request form. 



The EQUIP Conference is happening this Friday evening and Saturday morning (March 18-19). The conference is focused on equipping people for evangelism and discipleship.

Mortgage Burning Ceremony (10.6.24)

Today is a day of celebration and gratitude as we come together to witness the burning of our church’s mortgage! This moment represents years of faith, commitment, and sacrificial giving from this congregation. It’s a testament to God’s faithfulness and the dedication of His people. What we are celebrating today is not just the end of a financial obligation, but the beginning of new possibilities for missions, outreach, and service in our community.   ---     Psalm 127:1 says, ‘Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.’   This building has been more than just bricks and mortar; it has been a spiritual home where so many lives have been touched by the gospel. We recognize that while we’ve paid off the mortgage, it is the Lord who has truly built this house, sustaining us through every season.   --- History of the Vision         Though this chapter is closing, the mission God has ...

My Hope Sunday, M:T Not a Competition, Prayer Gathering (Pastoral Emphasis for 10/13)

Today was My Hope Sunday ! We had several invited guests, and my message was from 1 Samuel 8:4-9 on "Looking for a Savior".  Israel wanted a king like the other nations who would “save” them. This is the very definition of a functional savior. A functional savior is anything or anyone a person looks to for ultimate hope, security, identity, or fulfillment in place of God. Whatever you look to to “save” you from your problems, fears, or insecurities is your functional savior. But all of our functional saviors cannot save us. Jesus is the Savior we really need!  Our greatest need in this life and the life to come is to have our sins forgiven by trusting in Jesus as our Lord and Savior! Today, my wife shared her My Hope Testimony .   (RSS Subscribers: click here to watch the video) Missions:Together’s "Not a Competition" is a powerful missions gathering designed to re-ignite your passion for missions on Saturday, November 2, hosted at The Summit Church in Apex.
