This weekend, we are taking a look at the parable of the wedding feast. Through this parable, Jesus helped His audience see that there is an invitation, but it is up to us to respond. The title of this weekend’s message is “INVITATION.”
This weekend, we will be taking a look at the parable of the wicked vinedressers. Jesus used this shocking story to show His audience how their attitude toward the True Cornerstone was impacting their eternity. They were rejecting Jesus and, as a result, God would take the Kingdom away from them and give it to those who would truly recognize Jesus as the foundation of our faith. The title of this weekend’s message is “CORNERSTONE.”
This weekend, we will be looking at the parable of the sheep and the goats. Toward the end of the Olivet Discourse, Jesus challenged his listeners to think about their actions and the judgment that was to come. He showed them that this life is not all there is, but what we do here impacts our eternity. The title of this weekend’s message is “INHERITANCE.”

This weekend, we turn our attention to the parable of the man with a surplus harvest. He wanted to build bigger barns to make room for his harvest and then sit back and enjoy the easy life.

This weekend, we turn our attention to the parable of the parable of the workers in the vineyard.

The title of this weekend’s message is “REWARD.”
This weekend, we will be looking at the parable of the Pharisee and tax collector. Both characters came to God in prayer, but their hearts were in very different conditions.

The title of this weekend’s message is “JUSTIFIED.”
This weekend, we will be looking at the parable of the unforgiving servant. This servant didn’t have the proper perspective on debt or the forgiveness that he received, which led him not to forgive his fellow servant. Many times, the struggle to forgive comes from a misunderstanding of our own sin debt and the depth of the forgiveness of God. The title of this weekend is “DEBT.”
