Have you ever known something to be true, but still a part of you doubts it? What do you do with those doubts? All month we’ve been talking about “salvation.” When you place your faith in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, you experience what the Bible calls “salvation” or “being saved.” You have trusted in Jesus….You know you are saved…but doubt is still there - Did I do it right? Did I say the right prayer at the right time with the right words? Was my heart really into it? How can I know if I am saved? Lean in as Pastor Steve Garcia shows us 3 assurances from God’s Word that will remove all doubt.  - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

Can I lose my salvation? To be a Christian, to be of the party of Christ, requires one to believe and turn to Him. This means having the right view of Jesus and the right view of self.

Can a person lose their salvation?  Join us as Pastor Steve Garcia continues in a message series aimed at understanding the heart of Christianity. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

In the last couple of years, an interesting trend has emerged within the Christian faith called Deconstruction. Here is the idea: at some point a young person steps into adulthood, and in this space they begin to reassess their faith, which is healthy - No one should believe something blindly. But whether they know it or not, they are wrestling with a massive question: Does what I BELIEVE determine how I BEHAVE…Or does how I BEHAVE determine what I BELIEVE? Listen in as Pastor Steve Garcia unpacks the identity of a Christian in part 1 of this new message series on Identity. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

So who is Jesus really? Just about every historian on the earth believes Jesus was an actual historical figure. Some say Jesus is God, who became a human, so that he could die as a sacrifice for sins. Others say Jesus was a revolutionary leader who lived a lifestyle of peace and love that serves as an example for how we ought to treat one another. Still others say Jesus was nothing more than another religious leader. Join us as Pastor Steve Garcia concludes our series on Jesus - the prophet, priest, and king. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

In our country here in North America, we are of course a democracy led by an elected President. So it is a bit hard to imagine life in a monarchy. Countries such as Japan, Jordan, Belgium, Thailand, and Spain. Kings have ruled various portions of the world for thousands of years. Pastor Steve continues in our Easter message series Jesus was prophet, priest, and today he will wrap up part 2 on the message on king.

If I run into some kind of a problem I can’t solve on my own, I’ll need God’s help… Lord knows I can’t call on God…I mean, look at me, do I look religious? I’m going to need to call on a professional, someone like a priest, who can take care of the problem for me so I can return to my normal life. But is that what God really intended for a priest? Is that what God intended for you? What if God has something much different in mind for you and your life?

What do you think of when you hear the word “priest?” Maybe it’s a leader who wears robes with one of those little white collars? Maybe it’s a different religion where they refer to a holy man as a priest. Prophets, priests, and kings played massive roles throughout the Old and New Testaments, but did you know that in the thousands of years of recorded history, Jesus was the only one who held all three roles? As we move closer to Easter we are breaking down these roles to understand what they mean, how Jesus fulfilled them, and why that matters in our lives today. Join us today as Pastor Steve Garcia begins part one of the role “Priest.” - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

What’s fascinating is that in the history of the world, there are certain roles that even span across religions roles like prophets, roles like priests and roles like kings. Did you know Jesus was the only one to hold all three? Jesus is the only prophet, priest, AND King. And if only one person holds this distinction he is worth listening to. What does Jesus want for your life?

Jesus is arguably the most polarizing figure in the history of the world. During the days Jesus walked the earth, people either loved him or despised him, worshiped him as God or accused him of lying about being God. Some who died because of their faith and others who put Jesus to death. Even today, there is great division over who Jesus is.

“Transgender is an umbrella term for persons whose gender identity, gender expression or behavior does not conform to that typically associated with the sex to which they were assigned at birth” - American Psychological Association. At the heart of transgender ideology is the belief that sex and gender are separate things: They believe that a person’s sex is determined by biology, but gender is determined by society. Many transgender individuals feel strong negative emotions about their body thus leading them to seek out a gender that better matches their desires - often referred to as “their most authentic selves.” Well, not everyone agrees on these issues placing transgender ideology at the center of the culture wars. What is the Church’s position in the conversation? Lean in as Pastor Steve Garcia opens up the discussion on navigating transgenderism. - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

We've all made mistakes, and most of us, if we could, would like to go back and hit the "reset" button before the mistake could even be made.

Have you ever heard someone say that they believe in science, not faith? It takes faith to believe in God, but doesn’t it also takes just as much faith to allow science to determine your past, purpose and future. Every person is a person of faith.  The question we now have to ask ourselves, is “what is at the center of my faith?” In this series, Asking For a Friend, we are looking at burning questions that the culture is asking and how the Bible responds to them. We want to provide a kind and grace-filled approach to stepping INTO conversations about the difficult topics in this world. This message is centered around the question: “All the religions of the world claim to be true, but you can’t actually prove any of them. That’s why I believe in science, because it’s something that can be proved.” Watch along as Pastor Steve unpacks this questions and leads us to ask further questions about our faith.  If you are feeling confused about religion and faith, we hope this message gives you a good launching pad to understand the foundation of what faith in Christ is all about. -  NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

When it comes to the battles in life that you face, maybe you find yourself trained, prepared and battle ready, but when it comes to actually standing against temptations and the enemy, you quickly fold like a dinner napkin. We may be battle ready, but we still have to actually step onto the battlefield. In this message, Pastor Steve talks about how PRAYER is where the spiritual battle is fought and won. He gives us 3 practical ways from Ephesians 6, to help us see that we can fight the spiritual battles in our lives through the power of prayer. So if you are feeling tired of defeat and wanting your prayer life to be energized, watch this message so that you can not just be BATTLE READY, but be BATTLE VICTORIOUS.

None of us wants to face battles in life. And if we do face them, we’d like to be as far away from them as possible. But life doesn’t work that way, does it? The reality is that many of us are facing up close and personal battles right now. Battles with sickness, relationships, depressions, loneliness, emptiness. We find ourselves right in the middle of them. The good news is that we have a weapon that can help us fight our way right through the battle. In this message from the series BATTLE READY, Pastor Steve unpacks the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. We learn practical ways that we can use the Sword of the Spirit in the most difficult of battles we face. God doesn’t just leave us abandoned in our struggles, He equips us with exactly what we need to stand strong. If you are feeling defeated or discouraged, we hope this message encourages you and inspires you to take up your sword against the enemy and battles in your life.

Did you know that the average person has around 6,000 thoughts in a single day? Most of these thoughts are minor, fleeting thoughts like: what am I going to eat for lunch and how many more minutes is this meeting going to last? But there are many thoughts that stick around and start to cause trouble in the way we view ourselves, others, and ultimately God. The enemy will often attack our minds as it relates to our security and our confidence in our relationship with Jesus through discouragement and doubt. In this message, Pastor John Hill unpacks the Helmet of Salvation as we continue in the series on the armor of God (Ephesians 6) called Battle Ready. In this message, Pastor John gives us practical ways that we can battle the enemy's attempted attacks in our minds by securing our thoughts through our relationship with Jesus and through Scripture. If you are struggling with anxiety, discouraging or doubting thoughts that are affecting your relationships and decisions, we hope you are encouraged and inspired by this message to know and believe that God has the authority to guard your heart and mind through the power of Jesus!

If someone asked you what is the most important thing you believe about God, what would you say? How about this simple statement: God is good. 3 small words, but words, that if you truly believed them to your core, could change the entire perspective you have on life, this world, your relationships and yourself.  In this message, Pastor Steve talks about the Shield of Faith and how so many of us go into spiritual battle without the core conviction that God is a good God who can be trusted. Some people do believe God is good, but they are holding on to so many other toxic beliefs about their pasts, their futures, and their relationships, that they are unable to hold the shield of faith because their hands are full with other, lesser things.  If you are feeling unstable in your faith or unsure if you really have what it takes to step into spiritual battle, we would love for you to listen to this message and be encouraged and inspired.  This week, the fiery arrows of the enemy ARE going to come flying from all directions. But if you are willing to act on what you know, if you are willing to hold fast to your faith in Christ…NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST YOU WILL PROSPER!

One of the schemes of the Enemy is create chaos in our lives: confusion, distraction, division, and aimless living. So how can we stand our ground against the chaos of this world? This message about the Boots of Peace is all about how the PEACE of GOD is our best defense to the chaos of this world. Pastor Steve gives 3 ways that we can put on the boots of peace: how to receive God’s peace, how to remember God’s peace and how to rely God’s peace. Being at peace with God means that you are at war with the devil. So if you are struggling with family drama or conflict in the workplace, maybe you are struggling with depression or anxiety, maybe you are just overcome with all of the bad news in this world…we would love to invite you to listen to this message and be encouraged and inspired to suit up with the armor of God and stand your ground! -  NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

The Bible talks about how the heart is the wellspring of life and that we should guard our hearts as if our lives depended on it. The enemy is after our hearts. Jesus is after our hearts. Our hearts are ground zero of the spiritual battle that is taking place all around us. So what does it mean to guard our hearts? How do we put on the breastplate of righteousness, as talked about in Ephesians 6? In this message, Pastor Steve helps us understand not just the importance of the breastplate of righteousness, but how to actually wear it in our every day lives. How are we training ourselves for the battle? How are we focused on the gaining victories over the battles in our lives? How are we living out the righteousness that God has given us? If you are feeling stuck and defeated in your journey with God, we’d love for you to listen to this message and be inspired and encouraged to suit up and get some victories in your life! -  NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

In our postmodern era, the notion of absolute truth has been challenged with the claim that all truth is relative. This has resulted in catchphrases like, "live your truth" and "follow your heart". On the surface these mottos may seem harmless and even inspirational, but what if we have believed a lie that is actually keeping us from experiencing the life God wants for us? In this message, Pastor Carlo Mendoza teaches on the first element of the armor of God: The Belt of Truth, found in Ephesians 6. When we discover the Truth that God has revealed, we can be set free from the lies we believe. -  NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

We live in a world where we experience conflict every day. Political, Racial, and Religious lines are drawn everywhere we look. But what if those battles are only decoys to distract us from a more critical battle that *someone* doesn’t want you to see? What if the real frontline is not physical, psychological or emotional?  In this message, Pastor John Hill introduces us to what the Bible says in Ephesians 6 about spiritual warfare. He explores the reality of spiritual warfare and asks us all the challenging question: Are you battle ready?  Check out this message if you are ready to stand firm against the attacks of our spiritual enemy. -  NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!
