Who we are:

We are a group of men who gather once a month to create a community where men are known and valued for who they truly are. For thousands of years fires have been the gathering place where communities come together. It is a place where stories are told, friendships are built, adventures are relived, and warmth is both experienced and shared. Join the movement and take your place at the fire.Time: First Tuesday of the Month 7pm – 10pm

General Format:

6:30-7:00 PM: Men show up and Hang out
7:00-7:15 PM: Intro and Guiding Principles reviewed
7:15-9:45 PM: Authentic conversation
9:45-10 PM: Closing & Roll Out

Guiding Principles

1. Confidentiality is key. What happens at the fire stays at the fire. We are men of integrity.2. Authenticity is needed. This is a judgment free place where we come so share what really matters in our life. We are men of courage, strength and honesty.
3. Your story matters. We come to share our story so that other man are able to see part of their own story in ours. This is not a place for teaching, preaching or advising. It is a place to be known for who you are and valued.
What to bring:

Chair
Drinks (if you want one)

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.

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!
2025-04-04 19:00 - 20:30 | Summit Northwest Ministries – Church, 1486 W Seltice Way, Post Falls, ID, 83854, United States
What is Salt Worship?
Salt Worship is a gathering designed for young people to come together in an authentic, welcoming space. It’s more than just a worship service—it’s a place where you can be yourself, connect with others, and grow in your faith. Expect live music, interactive discussions, prayer, and time to meet new people.
What You Can Expect

Live Worship Music
A setlist of powerful songs to invite the Holy Spirit and bring us closer to God.
Small Group Discussions
Real conversations about faith, identity, and how we can be “salt and light” in the world.
Connection & Community
Meet new people and engage in meaningful conversations.
Time for Prayer
Prayer teams will be available if you’d like personal prayer after the service.
Casual & Social Atmosphere
No need to pretend—just come as you are and be part of a growing community.

“You are the salt of the earth.” – Matthew 5:13
P.S. God created you as you are; you don’t need to pretend to be anyone else.

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in Baptism?
2025-03-29 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Today, we’re diving (pun intended) into baptism—what it is, why Jesus commanded it, and why it’s more than just a spiritual dunk tank. Some see it as a sacrament, others an ordinance, but either way, it’s a big deal. Remember Naaman? He almost skipped his miracle over water preference! We’ll explore why getting wet for Jesus is different from getting dunked by your sibling. So, if you haven’t been baptized—why not? Let’s talk about it!

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in the Gift of Prophecy?
2025-03-22 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Today, we’re tackling a topic that tends to make the room go quiet—Ellen G. White and the Gift of Prophecy. She’s been a blessing and, let’s be honest, sometimes a source of debate. Some revere her, some dismiss her, and many don’t know where to stand. But what difference does it make? Do you have to believe in Ellen White to be a Seventh-day Adventist? Let’s have an open and honest conversation about it. Buckle up!

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in the Investigative Judgment?
2025-03-08 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
God wants us to be happy—He’s not some grumpy old man in the sky. He likes us! And that’s why the Investigative Judgment isn’t bad news—it’s God hitting “Like” on our lives. Think of it as a heavenly version of American Idol, where Jesus already decided who gets the prize before He shows up with it (Rev. 22:12). Paul even said in Acts 17:31 that judgment day was set long ago. Instead of dreading it, we should dig in and understand it—because, in the end, God isn’t looking for reasons to kick us out; He’s doing everything to bring us in!

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in the Sabbath
2025-03-01 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Is the Sabbath a Gift or a Test? It’s in the law of God, but does that mean it’s a test? How would you grade that test? We might be tempted to say it’s both … a gift and a test … but I don’t know about you, but I can’t think of too many tests that I have viewed as gifts in my life. It just might be one or the other. Let’s delve into the concept of Gift or Test and learn some important truths about God’s love for His Kids.

What Difference Does it Make to Believe in the Law?
2025-02-22 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
What difference does it make to believe in the Law? Ever been caught speeding and tried to talk your way out of it? Our pastor has—and let’s just say, the “pastor card” doesn’t always work! But what about God’s law? Is it just a set of cosmic speed limits, or is it something deeper—something that actually brings freedom? David loved the law. Jesus loved the law. Most of us? Well, we’re not so sure. But what if the law is less about restriction and more about protection? Come explore what David, Jesus, and Paul knew that we often miss—and why it actually matters.

Indifference, Judgment, and Empathy
2025-02-15 11:00 - 12:30 | ID
Indifference, Judgment, and Empathy—three attitudes that shape our relationships, our faith, and our response to the world around us. This sermon explores the dangers of apathy, the weight of judgment, and the transformative power of empathy, calling us to reflect on how we engage with others in light of Christ’s example.
