Worship Services Featured Changing Hearts One at a Time Life often feels overwhelming when we think about changing the world. How could one person ever make a real difference? Yet God’s plan has always been to work through individuals—ordinary people who allow Him to shape their hearts and guide their steps. In Philippians 2:12–16, Paul
Worship Services Featured The Name Above Every Name In Philippians 2:5–11, Paul reminds us that Jesus, though fully God, humbled Himself as a servant, even to death on a cross. Because of this, God has exalted Him and given Him the name above every name. This week, Pastor Tim Ward shares how the name of Jesus
Events Worship in the Park 2025 We are excited to once again join together for our annual Community Worship Service this Labor Day weekend! 📅 Date & Time: Sunday, August 31st, 2025 — 10:00 A.M. 📍 Location: Krouskop Park, Richland Center (Behind the Killian Meyer Building) This special event is a community-wide gathering of churches across the
Worship Services The Heart of Worship When music, lights, and activity fade away, what’s left at the center of worship? For the church in Philippi, Paul pointed them to the example of Christ Himself — humility, obedience, and self-giving love. Worship is not measured by performance or atmosphere but by a heart aligned with Jesus. This
Worship Services Things That Go Together, Work Together Grace and peace. These two words, often paired together in Paul’s letters, hold deep meaning for how the church is called to live and grow together. In Philippians 1:2-6, Paul reminds the believers that what God begins in them, He is faithful to complete. Grace and peace go
Worship Services Featured God the Father, God the Son, and God the ? We know God the Father and God the Son—but for many, God the Spirit feels mysterious, even hard to understand. Yet it is through the Holy Spirit that we hear from God, receive His guidance, and experience His power. In Scripture, we see that the Spirit never forces His
Worship Services What Happens in Communion? Something sacred happens at the Lord’s Table—but what exactly? Is it just a symbol, a reminder, a ritual… or is there more going on than meets the eye? In 1 Corinthians 11, Paul passes along what he received directly from the Lord: that communion is more than bread
Worship Services Tithe Gets a Bad Rap For some, the word tithe conjures up guilt, confusion, or even skepticism. Maybe it’s been used like a spiritual tax, or perhaps it’s been tangled up with flashy promises of blessing. Somewhere along the way, tithing got a reputation it was never meant to have. In Leviticus 27:
Worship Services Practical Holiness When we think about holiness, we often picture something distant—set apart, sacred, almost unreachable. But what if holiness was meant to be practiced in the everyday? What if it looked less like ritual perfection and more like walking faithfully with God, step by step? In Leviticus 26, God outlines
Worship Services In Case of Mildew — If Jesus Came to Your House What would happen if Jesus came to your house? Would He find evidence of a faithful life, or signs of something growing that shouldn’t be there? In Leviticus 14, God gives Israel instructions on how to deal with mildew found in their homes—guidelines that may seem obscure but
Worship Services Independence is Impossible In a garden full of beauty, provision, and fellowship with God, one voice whispered a lie that changed everything: “You will be like God.” It was a promise of independence—freedom from authority, freedom from limits, freedom to decide good and evil for ourselves. But that promise was empty. Genesis
Worship Services The Heart of the Matter Everyone wants clean living—whether it’s our relationships, our habits, or our motivations. But there’s something deeper that shapes everything from the inside out: the heart. In Leviticus, we read many rules and statutes that the Israelites kept to remain set apart to God, but do external regulations
Events Concert of Worship featuring Katy Kinard and Allie Crummy We're excited to host Katy Kinard and Allie Crummy Sunday, June 22, at 10:30. The service will feature light acoustic rock and some of their own original compositions. If you can’t make it Sunday morning, a lawn concert will be held at the church Sunday at
Worship Services Instructions of a Father In Proverbs 4, a father offers his children the kind of wisdom that shaped his own life. These are words meant to be remembered—calls to seek understanding, hold onto instruction, and walk with integrity. This passage reflects a tradition of teaching that is both personal and deeply rooted in
Worship Services Three Pictures in Atonement Long before the cross, God painted a picture of redemption in blood, wilderness, and mercy. On the Day of Atonement, the high priest would enter the Most Holy Place—alone, trembling, and covered in sacred linen—to make intercession for the sins of the people. Every movement was weighted with
Worship Services Communion - A Portrait of the Blood In the center of Israel’s worship stood the altar—and on that altar, the blood of sacrifices served as a vivid reminder: sin brings death, and life must be given to restore what was broken. Leviticus 17:11 declares, “For the life of a creature is in the blood,
Worship Services Never Forget When a moment changes everything, we mark it—etched in stone, remembered in silence, carried in story. From the blood-stained doorposts in Egypt to the folded flags on Memorial Day, some events shape not only our history but our identity. Exodus 12 tells the story of God’s people preparing
Worship Services Sin in the Camp When an entire community stumbles into sin—unknowingly, unintentionally—what happens next? In ancient Israel, this wasn’t just an individual matter. Sin could affect the whole camp, corrupt the sacred space, and threaten the people’s standing before a holy God. The burden didn’t fall on a scapegoat,
Worship Services A Mother's Priorities From the moment a child is conceived, a mother begins juggling countless responsibilities—nurturing, teaching, protecting, and often sacrificing. But beneath all the day-to-day tasks lies something even more significant: the priorities that shape the heart of a mother and guide the path of her home. This Mother’s Day,
Worship Services Come and See “Come and See” — among the first words Jesus speaks to those who would become His disciples. Not a command, but an invitation. Two seekers begin to follow Him, unsure of what they’re walking into. Instead of giving answers, Jesus offers a simple response: “Come, and you will see.” Not
Worship Services Mission Update with Thom & Sherry Cahill Across Asia, doors are opening—sometimes quietly, sometimes suddenly—for the Gospel to be shared in powerful and life-changing ways. In places where Christian teaching is scarce or restricted, God is raising up leaders, opening hearts, and creating opportunities for discipleship and church planting. This Sunday, we welcome Thom and
Worship Services Why Do You Seek the Living Among the Dead? The silence of the tomb was broken at dawn. The women came with spices, hearts heavy with grief, expecting to find a sealed grave and a lifeless body. Instead, they were met with a question that would echo through eternity: “Why do you seek the living among the dead?” This
Worship Services After the Celebration The crowd was electric, the entrance unforgettable. It felt like the game was already won. But now, the cheering has died down—and the real challenge begins. In Mark 11:7–33, we follow Jesus through the gates of Jerusalem and into the heart of spiritual conflict. What happens when
Worship Services Halftime Talk Just like a coach rallies the team in the locker room, Jesus gathers His disciples for an important conversation before everything changes. It’s a quiet moment, full of meaning, in the middle of the action. In Mark 14:12–31, Jesus shares a final meal with His disciples. The
Worship Services Breaking Down the Walls In this week’s message, Dave Ewing speaks on “Breaking Down the Walls”, a powerful look at the barriers we face in our spiritual lives—and how God calls us to overcome them through His Spirit. Rooted in Galatians 5:16-23, this message also draws from Joshua 6:1-21, Matthew
