  • Come and See
    Jan 19 2026

    When Jesus was asked a simple question — “Where are you staying?” — his response changed everything: “Come and see.”

    Through Pastor Craig's message, we imagine Jesus not only as teacher and Savior, but as host. Drawing from Psalm 40 and John 1, we explore three moments in the Gospels when Jesus sets the table: at the beginning of his ministry, before his death, and after the resurrection.

    “Come and see.” “Go and prepare.” “Come and dine.”

    Together, these invitations shape the life of the church and the calling of every disciple. This message is a reminder that faith is not about pressure or perfection, but about welcome, preparation, and presence — and that Jesus is still inviting us to step inside, make room, and sit at the table of grace.

  • Out of the Water, Into the World
    Jan 12 2026

    Baptism is more than a moment. It is a calling.

    Pastor Craig explore's the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River and what it reveals about our own identity and mission. Drawing on biblical imagery, modern scenes from the Jordan, and the realities of our world today, we discover that baptism is both a gift of grace and a dangerous commitment.

    Jesus does not come out of the water and head for comfort. He walks straight into hunger, temptation, injustice, and need. And when we are baptized, we are marked the same way—not just as beloved, but as sent.

    You are invited to follow Jesus out of the water and into the world, where faith becomes courage, love becomes action, and grace takes on flesh.

  • Fear Doesn't Stop Us
    Jan 5 2026

    On Epiphany Sunday, we hear the familiar story of the magi—and the often-overlooked shadow of Herod. Christ is born, yet the world still feels unchanged. Fear still looms. Violence still threatens hope.

    And yet, the magi refuse to let fear stop them. They follow the light, honor Christ, and return home by another way. As this series comes to a close and a new year begins, we proclaim that our journey continues—and fear will not have the final word.
