Pastor Jonathan Eckberg begins our new sermon series in the book of 1 Thessalonians called, “Hold the Line.” There are times in life when we know exactly what to do. There are so many other times when we feel like we have no idea what to do! How do we stand firm our faith when we feel unprepared for what …
The Fate of Sodom – Genesis 19:1-29
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg teaches the next message in our series, “Next Level,” as we continue to study through the life of Abraham. Most know the story of Sodom and how God destroyed the city.

The Pursuit of Joy – Leviticus 23
Pastor Jonathan Eckberg continues in our final study in Leviticus called, “The Pursuit.” Everybody loves a party. We take great joy in gathering together to celebrate life’s momentous occasions. But these are (usually) events we choose to celebrate. How do we respond when we are commanded to celebrate. In Leviticus 23, God commands His children to celebrate. This week we …
