In today's message we unwrap a familiar story to find meaning for our lives today that gives us hope in a broken world through Jesus our savior.
Unwrapping Baby Jesus
Isaiah 9:6-7 | Sun, Dec 19, 2021 | Pastor Ken Schultz

God’s word is full of rules or commands which are boundaries meant to protect our lives and relationships. They are there to protect our relationship with God and our relationship with each other. God did not need to break the rules and He did not need use His authority of Lord over and control others, instead He served and loved people with His authority.

Unwrapping Purpose
John 18:33-37 | Sun, Dec 23, 2018 | Pastor John Stillman

What is the purpose of Christmas? Christmas means that there is truth — truth that everyone should believe. Jesus declared that He came as the key witness of this truth, and His followers testify to this truth, also. When Christ is in you, you will realize how much is at stake.

Unwrapping Sorrow
John 11:1-43 | Sun, Dec 16, 2018 | Pastor John Stillman

Maybe your sorrows feel especially heavy at this time of year. God has not abandoned you. Jesus understands what you are going through. With Christ in you, call on Jesus and take comfort in His nearness whenever you are hurting.

Unwrapping Commercialism
John 2:13-25 | Sun, Dec 09, 2018 | Pastor John Stillman

Jesus was not into commercialism, but somehow we have managed to commercialize His birth. How does a consumeristic approach to God kill worship? That's what this message is about as we "unwrap commercialism."

Unwrapping Relationship
John 14:12-23 | Sat, Dec 01, 2018 | Pastor John Stillman

Christmas is ultimately about unwrapping God's gift of Jesus Christ to the world and Christ in you! In this message, Pastor John looks at how Jesus brings us the blessing of prayer to our heavenly Father.

Faith Works
James 2:14-26 | Sun, May 31, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message unpacks James 2:14–26, where James challenges the idea of faith without action by asking whether such faith can truly save. It explains that faith without works is dead. The message also clarifies that salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus, but genuine saving faith is always demonstrated through a transformed life and obedient action.

Law of Liberty
James 2:8-13 | Sun, May 17, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores the biblical idea of the “Law of Liberty” through James 2:8–13, focusing on how believers are called to live lives marked by mercy, love, and obedience to God.

Authentic Love
James 2:1-7 | Sun, May 10, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In The Epistle of James 2:1–7, James teaches that authentic faith is revealed through authentic love — a love that refuses to show partiality or rank people based on wealth, appearance, status, or influence. The message warns believers against favoritism and reminds the church that every person is made in the image of God and equally valuable because of Christ’s sacrifice.

What true religion looks like
James 1:25-26 | Sun, May 03, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz

This message explores what genuine faith looks like according to James 1:26–27, emphasising that true religion is not outward appearance but inward transformation expressed through action.

Joy in Trial
James 1:1-8 | Sun, Apr 12, 2026 | Pastor Ken Schultz
