This Week's Message

"Heaven Rules"
Jason Fischer |
 Daniel 4:1-37

Through Nebuchadnezzar’s testimony we are faced with the reality that God rules on earth just as he does in heaven. This conflicts with our own pride so it is important for us to understand how pride shows up in our own lives in order to submit to God’s sovereign and gracious rule.

Prayer 🙏

We carry each other through trust in Jesus and prayer together. Here's what our community is lifting up this week:

Cancer Diagnosis: Daniel Lichtenberger’s sister-in-law was recently diagnosed with breast cancer which will require surgical intervention. Please pray for healing, finances, minimal growth/impact of the cancer, and comfort through this difficult season. Pray for her husband to get the job God would have for him to provide for their needs.

Clark Family: The Clark’s son Josh had an accident and suffered broken sinuses and a small brain bleed. He went through surgery ok but pray for quick healing and no complications to arise and the presence of the Lord to be with the family as they recover.

Submit your own prayer request here.

This Week's Message "What’s Going On" Jason Fischer | Daniel 10:1-21 Have you ever wondered why life doesn't always seem to line up with what you know to be true about God? In Daniel 10, Daniel wrestles with unanswered questions, delayed answers to prayer, and the unseen spiritual realities at work behind the events of this world. His experience reminds us that even when we can't see what God is doing, He is still at work. In this message, we explore how Daniel responded with humility, perseverance, trust, and how his example encourages us to remain faithful when life doesn't make sense.

This Week's Message "Be Ready & Faithful At All Times " Steven Widger | Daniel 9:1-27 In Daniel 9, we find one of the most powerful prayers in all of Scripture.

In this message, Pastor Steven walks through Daniel 9 and explores what it means to pray according to God's character, confess our need for Him, and trust His faithfulness. Whether you've been following Jesus for years or you're learning how to pray, Daniel's example encourages us to seek the Lord with humble hearts and unwavering hope.

Pastor Blake challenges us to be ready when the world rebels against God, faithful when it opposes His people, and firmly grounded when it rejects His truth. Even in uncertain times, we can live with courage and confidence, knowing that evil’s reign is temporary and God’s kingdom will ultimately prevail.

In Daniel 3, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego face an impossible choice: bow before the king's golden image or be thrown into a blazing furnace. Their courage reminds us that true faith isn't measured by whether God rescues us from every trial, but by our willingness to trust Him no matter the outcome. And in one of the most powerful moments in Scripture, God reveals that He doesn't simply deliver His people from the fire—He joins them in it. This message explores how believers can stand firm in a culture of compromise, endure suffering with confidence, and live with the hope that God is always present, even in life's fiercest flames.
