Crossroads: Finding The Courage To Choose
2025-05-31 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Jake Wilkinson
Imagine standing at the edge of a dark forest, unsure of what lies beyond. Making decisions about what we truly want can be incredibly daunting—especially when our deepest desires are shrouded in uncertainty. There are moments when the future seems so elusive, and our hearts whisper doubts even as dreams call us forward. These are the crossroads of faith, where something bigger than ourselves and our own ideas becomes our guiding light, urging us to move onto the path we believe we are being called to, and that every uncertain step will reveal a little more of who we are created to be.

Meditations from the Walk of Pain
2025-05-24 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Joe Bowen
This week’s message looks at the hard seasons of life—the ones filled with pain, questions, and uncertainty—and how God meets us in the middle of it. It’s an honest reflection on what we learn through suffering, how it shapes our faith, and the quiet ways God walks with us through it all.

Finders Keepers
2025-05-17 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Eric Brown
Don’t you hate losing things? Its inconvenient and irritating. But how do you feel about being lost yourself? About 50% of the population seem to have a hard time even admitting they are lost at all. Jesus told 3 stories that reveal there are lots of different kinds of lost, but there’s only one kind of found. If you’ve been feeling lost and you hope someone is out there looking for you, then don’t miss the message in “Finders Keepers.”

Flourish 2025
2025-05-16 17:00 - 2025-05-18 14:00 | Camp Mivoden, 17415 E Hayden Lake Rd, Hayden, ID, 83835, United States
Flourish is a weekend event for women who are looking to do more than just survive. Our days are frequently burdened with family needs, work engagements, challenging relationships, and many other stressors that can leave us exhausted. However, we don’t believe that this is how God intended for us to live. We weren’t made to just get by. We were made to Flourish.
Join us for a weekend focused on complete health and wellness for your mind, body and soul. If you’re looking for a schedule full of seminar style meetings, you have the wrong weekend. Instead, we will be focusing on creating time and space for God to speak to your heart, heal your soul, renew your spirit, restore your strength, and remind you that you are loved.

Seen Through the Master’s Eye
2025-05-10 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Randy Wilkinson
We move through a world that feels familiar, convinced we see things—and ourselves—clearly. But through the Master’s eye, a richer reality emerges: deeper, truer, more alive. There, our true identity comes into focus.

The Boat
2025-05-03 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Alexander Nickolatos
We remember Peter because Peter got out of the boat. We don’t remember the “others” in the boat. Everyone had the same opportunity and faced the same risk, so why did only Peter take the chance? What does it mean to take up your cross and follow Jesus? Jesus gave each one of us individual talents and He has called us not to waste them. Not wasting them involves risk taking, like stepping into a wild ocean. Paul tells us to “forget what is behind and strain toward what is ahead”. Peter did just that when he stepped out of the boat.

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in Unity of the Body of Christ
2025-04-26 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
As we near the conclusion of this sermon series, we are faced with a tough but important question: What does true unity in the Body of Christ look like? With tensions and disagreements within our denomination and the global church, it’s easy to feel like unity is an impossible goal. But Christ’s words remind us that unity doesn’t mean uniformity, and submission doesn’t necessarily equal unity. The challenge before us is learning to embrace differences while loving one another. In matters of personal opinion or theological interpretation, unity is possible, as long as love is the guiding force.

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in The Lord's Supper?
2025-04-19 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
The Lord’s Supper is more than a ritual—it’s a celebration! It’s a moment to remember Jesus, to gather as family, to rejoice in His love. The early church broke bread together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God. Today, we continue that joyful tradition. This table is open to all who love Jesus. No barriers, no fears—just grace. Come, not because you must, but because you may. Come, remember, and rejoice. Let’s celebrate together the love of Christ in this sacred meal. You are invited!

The Day After
2025-04-12 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Speaker: Dustin Jones
Remember your best day ever? How long was it before you came crashing back down? For many of us, it often happens soon after, or even the day after. God has an amazing lesson for us on how to handle what are often the lowest days in our life.

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in Creation?
2025-04-05 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
In today’s message, we’ll dive into the fascinating topic of Creation—a subject that has sparked both wonder and debate for centuries. While many of us have questions about how exactly the world came into being, one thing is certain: God created it all, and His timing is vastly different from ours. As we explore Genesis 1, we’ll address the age-old debate of whether the creation days were literal 24-hour periods or something else entirely. But more importantly, we’ll explore the bigger message behind the repetition of the days, and how God’s view of time invites us to trust in His plan.

Salt Worship: Worship Where You Can Be You!
