To be an ambassador for Christ is to be provoked by the love and holiness of God that compels you go out and share his truth in everything you do. Today we learn from the Apostle Paul how to live out our call to be an ambassador of Christ in our generation.
Accepting the Call
Isaiah 6:1-13 | Sun, Dec 27, 2015 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Have you been undone?! Are you ready to serve?! Are you a stump?! Today we learn from Isaiah Chapter 6 how to accept the call of God and serve Him as an Ambassador of Christ.

Living in Authority Together
Romans 12:1-9 | Sun, Nov 10, 2013 | Pastor Ken Schultz

The best example of authority is how our physical bodies respond to our head. In today’s message, we see how the body of Christ functions in relation to its head, Jesus. The D.N.A. that hold the body together is love expressed perfectly in the will of God. When the body operates by the authority of the body, the whole body is enriched by the grace of gifts God supplies.

Living In Authority
Ephesians 5:20-33 | Sun, Nov 03, 2013 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In Today’s message we discuss how being in submission to God strengthens a family. A wife submitting to God shows the gospel to the world! A husband loving his wife unconditionally also shows the gospel to the world. Jesus shows us the way as He submits to the Father to save us all.

Living By Authority
| Sun, Oct 27, 2013 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In Today’s message we look the importance of the authority of God. The direct authority of His word and the delegated authority that He gives - Authority to protect us and teach us to become obedient servants. His word says that obedience is better than sacrifice.

Alive Within
Philippians 1:1-11 | Sun, Aug 02, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Based on Philippians 1:1-11 Paul wrote the letter to the Philippians while imprisoned, yet his life overflowed with joy because his confidence rested in Christ rather than his circumstances. This message reminds us that true victory begins in our inner life, where our identity is found in being servants of Jesus, partners in the gospel, and recipients of God's unfailing grace.

Heart of Worship
Exodus 32:1-4 | Sun, Jul 26, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores how the Israelites' worship of the golden calf reveals that idolatry is ultimately a heart issue, not merely an external action. It challenges believers to examine what truly holds first place in their lives, reminding us that worship is about loving and surrendering our whole lives to God rather than simply participating in religious activities.

Faith that restores
James 5:16-20 | Sun, Jul 19, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message teaches that the power of prayer is not found in the strength, passion, or eloquence of the person praying, but in the strength and faithfulness of the God to whom we pray. James 5:16-20 reminds believers to turn to God in every circumstance, rely on the support of the church, confess sin, pray with faith that trusts God's will, and lovingly pursue those who have wandered from Christ.

Patient Endurance
James 5:7-12 | Sun, Jul 05, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Based on James 5:7–12, this message teaches that believers are called to patiently endure trials and injustice by trusting God's timing rather than demanding immediate justice.

The war within
James 4:1-12 | Sun, Jun 14, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores James 4:1–12 and teaches that the conflicts we experience with others often originate from sinful desires, pride, and divided loyalties within our own hearts. James calls believers to stop blaming external circumstances, humble themselves before God, submit to Him, resist the devil, and receive God's abundant grace.

Meekness of Wisdom
James 3:13-18 | Sun, Jun 07, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message from James 3:13–18 explores the difference between worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. Using the analogy of competing operating systems, the message argues that our words, conflicts, and behaviors reveal what is happening in our hearts. The central challenge is not simply behavior modification, but allowing God to transform the heart so that wisdom produces peace, humility, mercy, and righteousness.
