When suicide hits close to home, how do we respond with biblical truth, compassion, and hope? In this message, our pastoral team addresses four important questions: What does the Bible say about suicide? How do we minister to those who are hurting? How do we suffer well in the midst of grief? And how do we keep moving forward while trusting God through the pain?

Just like the words we speak, the unspoken words in our minds have the power of death and life. Are your defeating thoughts going to have the final say or will it be God’s Word that never changes?

Seemingly insignificant attitudes in our hearts can become “little foxes” that Satan uses to damage relationships. We must guard our hearts, because what seems small can grow into bitterness, division, and destruction.

As ambassadors of Jesus Christ, how we talk should always be in light of the Gospel and focused on the things that God is seeking to accomplish.

The tongue is a small, yet powerful force in your life; it can’t be controlled. We need someone to do for us, what we cannot do for ourselves. Only God can tame the tongue.

Do the words that come from our mouths reflect a heart transformed by the Gospel. The words we speak are the truest expression of the spiritual condition of the heart.

The second coming of Jesus isn’t wishful thinking, but a core theology of the Christian faith that changes how the Believer lives today.

God moved first to save us, and it is entirely a gift of His grace - not our performance. Do you need to stop striving and start resting in Him?

Every Christian is called to live out the Great Commission. It's our mission and it means helping other people follow Jesus.

The story of creation is at the center of everything a Christian believes. If God did not create the world and everything in it, then all the theology of the Christian faith comes crashing down.
