Pastor Jonathan Eckberg begins our new series in the book of Ecclesiastes called, \”Vs.\” Life is full of choices. But there is one choice at the heart of all others. Who will we serve? Will we serve the desires of our flesh or God\’s Kingdom? As we begin the book of Ecclesiastes, we will discuss this very question and set …
Pastor Ron Eckberg teaches from the Psalms. \”The land of the living is dangerous country,” writes Eugene Peterson, “A lot goes wrong.” The challenge to God’s people, of course, is to live with grace, purpose and passion in the midst of the chaos, confusion and change we experience here in this life. Join us Sunday as we mine the Scriptures …

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.

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.
