Families shape and mold how she see and approach the world. God designed them to be a place of blessing, but we also experience them as a place of pain. Jesus teaches us how to find healing in the family of God and leads us on a new path of healing. Healing our generational trauma can lead to triumph in every relationship.

Healing Relationships // Like Father, Like Son

This is the first sermon in our Healing Relationships series. God created us for relationships. They were designed for us to experience His redemptive love and healing power, but too often are a place of pain and hurt. This 5-week relationships series won't be about surface level conflict resolution. We're going to strip away all the pretense, platitudes, and denial. We'll focus on why relationships are so messy, why they can be such a source of anguish, and yet can also be the greatest source of joy and fulfillment. The paradox of relationships is that while they can cause harm, it's also only through relationships that divine healing can occur. And while practical wisdom is necessary in any relationship, it is Jesus who provides the only transformative power. He is the true reconciler. When He is the center of our lives, His peace saturates our relationships and brings healing so that we can be healers ourselves.

Healing Relationships // Healing Starts with You

As we enter 2022, where is our focus and what are we moving towards? God wants us to focus on him and all that he has for his people.

Join LMCC for a Christmas Eve celebration!

Celebrate Christmas

Jesus chose to be born to cause all creation to be born again. Many understand the phrase “born again” as a one-time act of conversation, but Jesus teaches that we are continually being reborn. Enjoy the gift of rebirth through Christ's birth.

The Gift of Rebirth through Christ's Birth

The warm sentiments and festive traditions we ascribe to Christmas don’t always align with the reality of our feelings and experiences this time of year. Join us as we try to find the path from suffering to joy.

O Come Emmanuel: Suffering and Christmas

This Christmas, let's receive Christ's invitation to celebrate like children. Jesus praises childlike faith, humility, and awe as the characteristics for enjoying His Kingdom.

Celebrate Christmas Like Children

On Thanksgiving weekend and the first day of Advent, Alicia Lee delivers a message on Manna from Heaven in three parts. 1) When Blessings Become Curses: how the Israelites came to hate manna, and how we can spot the manna in our lives. 2) Building Memorials: how God tells the Israelites - and us - to hold onto blessings. And 3) The Hidden Manna: Jesus. The manna is what we think we need, but God is who we need.

Manna from Heaven

This is the final message in our annual giving series. God aims to free you from the power you've given money in your life. Generous giving focuses on what God wants you to give and He has a number to help you be generous.

Fall 2021 Vision Meeting

This is part two of a 3-week series on giving. Lead Pastor Logan Gentry offers a glimpse into what makes for an acceptable offering, and God’s work as a wealth manager. God not only has infinite knowledge, but values each of us as His most treasured possession and cares deeply for our future. How will you align your heart with God’s and steward what He has given you?

Rich Generosity // Wealth Management

This is the first of three sermons in our annual giving series. God is rich in generosity so we can be rich in generosity. Give like no one else, so you can live like no else.

Rich Generosity // Investment in True Life

Understanding who we are called to be precedes understanding what we are called to do. Jasmine Wood uses the story of Zacchaeus to illustrate how letting Jesus interrupt us and change us at our core is the best thing that can happen if we want to join in God’s bigger mission for His people. This is a special Mission Sunday message to celebrate the work of our partner organizations that embody Kingdom values and seek God’s justice.
