Pastor Ron Eckberg brings a special Father’s Day message, “The Leader of the Band.” Author Blaine Lee writes; “The great leaders are like the best conductors – they reach beyond the notes to reach the magic in the players.” The same could be said about great fathers. Fatherhood is a challenging, heart-rending, joyful, frustrating, complicated task. It is, however, one …
Pastor Ron Eckberg brings a special message from Exodus 1:15-2:10. This week we celebrate the mothers in our lives. Mother’s Day is a time to reflect with gratitude on all the women (mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, friends, etc.) who give of themselves for the love and care of others. In the action surrounding Moses’ birth, we see the characteristics of …
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg shares our special Easter morning message. We all respond to events and situations in our own unique ways.

Pastor Ron Eckberg preaches a special Thanksgiving message from Colossians 2:6-7. Henry David Thoreau once wrote that his thanksgiving was “perpetual.” Giving thanks to God for all we have and have done should be more than a once-a-year endeavor, it should indeed be perpetual. We should be relentless in giving thanks.
Pastor Ron Eckberg teaches on the need and joy of gratitude in our lives. Do you know any truly grumpy, ungrateful people? You probably do and perhaps that describes you. There are too many ungrateful people in the world, and, sadly enough, in the church. Fortunately, we can change that. Join us Sunday as we dive into the Scriptures and …
Pastor Ron Eckberg preaches a special Father’s Day message from Ezekiel 37. From time to time we all find ourselves a little empty, a little dry, and in need of renewal.
