Pastor Anthony continues the TRILL GOD series with this message: The CYPHER GOD! God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God is a community of equal persons called the Trinity. God is a cypher! A cypher in hip-hop is a circle of rappers spitting lyrics and showing off their talent. God is a holy cypher, an eternal dance of gift and love that forever gives out of abundance.

The Cypher God

the TRILL GOD. In hip-hop the word trill means to be both 'true' and 'real'. During the month of May we will be talking about God as artists and creatives. We tend to talk about God in very narrow and linear ways. What if we imagined and listened for God as imaginative people. God says: "My thoughts are higher than your thoughts. My ways higher than your ways."

The God Who Stuns

Pastor Anthony continues our Be Wise series with a word about the wisdom of God in our lives. How we are all made by wisdom and an expression of God's wisdom. Our lives are a wonder. You are a wonder. Scripture text: Psalm 139:1-14.

You Are A Wonder!

Easter Uprising: a Holy Week Reflection

Pastors Toni and Anthony continue our #4SERIES, a journey thru the four gospels in the New Testament. In this message this questions is asked: how do we move through suffering? Thru Mark 3:35-41 we join Jesus and the disciples in a boat experiencing a storm. We learn that going through the storm with Jesus will buildup our capacity for resilience in the face of suffering.

How do we move through suffering? [Gospel of Mark]

Pastors Toni and Anthony kick off our #4SERIES, a journey thru the four gospels in the New Testament. In this message this questions is asked: how do we face change? Thru Matthew 3:1-17 we catch of a glimpse of the chief example of a transformation and change, Jesus.

How Do We Face Change? [Gospel of Matthew]

This one life. What will you do with it? Preaching from Ephesians 5 Pastor Anthony challenges us to Carpe Diem. Carpe Diem is a latin phrase that means 'seize the day'. How do we seize the day or become people who make the most of our lives? What is the recipe for a seize-the-day-kinda-life? Those ingredients: Belonging, Purpose, Storytelling, Transcendence.

Carpe Diem [Seize The Day}

What's in a name? We learn from West African culture that a name is fused with power. That a name speaks to the presence, personality and purpose of a person. When we call upon on the name of the Lord we call upon the very presence, person and purpose of Jesus in any given moment. Key Verse: Psalm 18: 1-15.

When We Call On The NAME

The "Drawn In" series is about our emotional and spiritual health. How these two things are two sides of the same coin. Join us for the next eight weeks as we explore what it means to have an emotionally healthy spirituality in our walk with Jesus.

The Law of Prayer [Second Sunday]

Blessed are the Mourners

Pastor Anthony finishes the #STRUGGLA series with a message from Matthew 4:1-11 titled “Fight Like a Christ”. When we are in a spiritual battle we must learn how to fight like Jesus.

Fight Like A Christ

When we say we are walking with God we are not saying we are walking with an idea, an abstraction, a doctrine nor an intellectual belief. We are saying we are walking with the living reality that is more than our ideas, more than our human words. The reality that creates and sustains the universe. What does it mean to walk with this God? This is the question we seek to explore during the month of October.

Desiring God

Taught By God

"We need to know our past in order to understand our present so that we can move into a blessed future." Ever great story of a shero/hero has an origin story. An origin story gives us insight into the shero/hero. What has made them to be the person they are and will be in the future? Join us for this series as we explore the story of Joseph in the Old Testament and explore our own Origin Stories. What messages and truths have we learned from our families, friends and close community? What are the tragic and blessed patterns of life and stories we have internalized?

Origins [Part 1]

In this stand-alone message Pastor Anthony takes us thru Jesus' last words to his disciples in the gospel of John 14. Jesus shares a powerful vision to the disciples about his one-ness with the Father and informs the disciples that they too will be in-dwelt and also at-one-with the Father as he himself is. We learn that the ancient Christians believed that we all go through three unique stages/seasons of growth. Seasons of the PURGE, the REVELATION and ONE-NESS with God. Stages that overlap and repeat that ultimately lead to one-ness or unity with Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Thus showing and revealing, with our beautifully flawed lives, the love and presence of God to a watching world.
