How to Manage Relational Conflict | Pastor Ben Dixon

In all human relationships, conflict will emerge at some point because each of us has the capacity to sin. Jesus taught that as Christians we seek to resolve conflict and pursue reconciliation. This is a testimony to who we are in Christ and to whom we allow to direct all of our thoughts and actions. In this passage, we see seven principles for what to do to resolve conflict and reconcile with others.

What Do You Do When Everything Goes Wrong? | Pastor Iziah Dawn

Life doesn’t always go as planned. In fact, there are times when everything seems to fall apart all at once. Losses, setbacks, and moments that leave us feeling defeated. This weekend, we’re looking at one of those moments in the life of David, where everything truly went wrong. But what David did next offers us a roadmap for our own moments of pain and pressure. Through his story, we’ll discover that even on our worst days, we can still find strength in God, follow His direction, and walk in generosity not because life is easy, but because God is good.

Who You Follow Will Shape Your Tomorrow | Pastor Ben Dixon

From the time we are born we are all impressionable. There are people we have looked up to whose words and ways have mattered more to us than anyone else. However, not every person in our life, even those we have cherished, is helping us to become who God has called us to be. As followers of Jesus we need to be intentional with who we look up to and listen to because the people that we follow have the greatest impact on who we become. In our passage today, the Apostle Paul gives us an encouragement, a warning and a reminder about the importance of followership in our lives.

The Resurrection Cover-Up | Pastor Ben Dixon

Easter is the most important holiday for a Christian. It means our hope in Christ is not misplaced. Historically, people have attempted to cover-up the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. There are plenty of alternative historical narratives, but Jesus did die and there is evidence of his resurrection.

Give Us Barabbas | Pastor Ben Dixon

Pastor Ben Dixon delves into the biblical account of the crowd's choice between Jesus and Barabbas, exploring themes of spiritual complacency and the dangers of choosing comfort over truth.Drawing parallels to modern-day challenges, Dixon urges believers to examine their own hearts and confront the temptation to seek easy answers instead of embracing the transformative power of Christ. This message serves as a compelling reminder to prioritize faithfulness and integrity in a world that often favors the status quo.

The Fruit of His Spirit | Pastor Chris Manginelli

In his letter to the Galatians, Paul writes to those who had been heavily influenced by Greek thought and culture. Yet Paul taught that as Christians, it is the character of Jesus that influences and transforms us into the likeness of Christ. As we hunger and thirst for God and grow in His purposes, we can be led by the Holy Spirit and receive true freedom.

Does Our Faith Limit God's Power | Pastor Ben Dixon

All of us want God to work powerfully in and through our lives. This is one of the primary reasons that we pray and seek to obey God’s Word. But the fact is, we don’t always see God do what we want or receive what we have asked Him for through our prayers. Have you ever wondered why? We all have! While we cannot answer “why” for every circumstance, I think it’s important to ask if our faith has something to do with it. Some people might say “your faith has nothing to do with God’s response to you!” Is that true? Is that really what the Bible teaches? Does our faith or lack of faith play a role in God responding to us? That is the question we will explore today by looking at two very important passages of Scripture.

Freedom From Being Stuck | Pastor Ben Dixon

All of us have experienced what it’s like to feel stuck where we are but know there is more. We want to grow more, be more, and do more but unfortunately, we allow far too many things to hold us back. In our passage today, the Apostle Paul gives some practical advice about how we can get unstuck and move forward.

Knowing Christ is Worth Everything | Pastor Ben Dixon

What is the most valuable thing that you have? I realize that is a loaded question which can go in many directions because we all have valuable things that we cherish, preserve and protect. But if you were to boil it down to THE most important thing what would that be? In our passage today, the Apostle Paul dives deep into explaining that our relationship with Jesus is worth everything and more valuable than anything.

Every Christian is in Ministry | Pastor Ben Dixon

Have you ever heard someone say, “you should be in ministry!” When a comment like this is made it is almost always referring to someone being a pastor or church leader of some kind. Is that what ministry means? The simple answer is NO. The word ministry in the Christian context simply refers to someone serving others in the name of Jesus. That means that every Christian is in ministry and every Christian is a minister. Ministry is not what we do in the church, it’s what we do as the church. In our passage today, we will read about a few of the Apostle Paul’s friends that engaged in ministry by serving others well.
