Pastor Jonathan Eckberg teaches the penultimate message in our study through 1 John. Even a very surface level study of the Christian faith reveals that prayer is significant. As we grow in our faith we are constantly learning how prayer is integrated into every aspect of our faith. In 1 John 5:13-17, the Apostle John tells us how righteous, Kingdom-minded …
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg continues our teaching from 1 John 5 in our series, “A Different Kind of Love.” John has argued the depth of God’s love for us and the importance of sharing that love with one another. But how, with so much information and so many activities before us in our lives, can we trust that God’s love is …
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg leads us back into our study through 1 John and our series, “A Different Kind of Love”. In 1 John 4 we read John’s instructions on what divine love is and how to love God and others. But why? Why does John spend such a large portion of his writing to the church on the topic of …
Pastor Ron Eckberg shares a special Father’s Day message. Like it or not, if you are a father you are being “measured”. Your children—and most likely, you—are measuring you against your father, against the fathers of your children’s friends, and even the fathers on the TV screen.

Pastor Ron Eckberg continues our series, “A Different Kind of Love.” On the night of his arrest and trial Jesus stood before Pilate who asked the age-old question, “What is truth?” Two thousand years later the answer to that question seems to be as elusive to our world as ever. The problem, of course, is that we continue to look …
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg leads the second week in our series, “A Different Kind of Love” as we continue to study the letter of 1 John. We began this new series talking about 3 facets of God’s love. When we grasp the immensity of God’s incredible love, we find the strength to live out our Christian life on a daily basis. …
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg begins a new series called, “A Different Kind of Love,” as we continue our study through the book of 1 John. Love is one of the most abused words in the English language. It is also crucial to our understanding of the Christian faith and life. How, then, should we properly understand and live in light of …
Pastor Ron Eckberg preaches the second week of a two-part message on worship. In just a few short words, “Come, let us worship and bow down”, God invites his children to come before His throne. But what exactly does that mean? How do we define “worship”? How do we prepare, participate, and respond to such a holy calling?
Pastor Ron Eckberg begins a two-week miniseries on the life of worship. “We are saved,” wrote A.W. Tozer, “to worship God.” As simple as that sounds worship is still something that the church struggles with and even divides over. This week, we gain a greater understanding of our ultimate calling.
