We cover a Big Idea every week. This month's Big Ideas include ‘Making peace is part of God’s game plan’ (1 Samuel 25), 'Following God is the best game plan' (2 Samuel 6), 'Showing kindness is in God’s game plan’' (2 Samuel 9) and 'Forgiveness is always God’s game plan' (2 Samuel 11).

Student Ministry- Middle Schoolers!
Starting today 08/04, we are starting a 3-week Middle School only series during Sunday service. We will meet in the main building and go to the south building when Pastor goes up to teach. This includes our incoming 6th graders!
Starting 08/14 on Wednesday evenings: In video games, when you face challenges and make mistakes there's always the option to start over. In real life, it's not so easy to recover, but Jesus gives us a chance to restart — no matter how difficult our circumstances. In this 3-week devotional series, we will look together at people in the Bible who needed God's help to give them a restart and discover how we can trust God, and His promises.
