How To Forgive When It Hurts
Unforgiveness is a self-imposed prison that wreaks havoc on us and negatively impacts those we love the most. Every single one of us gets hurt... but what we do with that hurt is critical.

How To Seek First God’s Kingdom
The act of seeking first the Kingdom of God is a daily decision to prioritize our relationship with Jesus above all else. It is in this continual decision to obey God and love Him first that we find the strength, provision, and guidance to navigate all other responsibilities and challenges of life.
Vision Sunday (2024)
God is looking for people who will put Him first. When we become distracted, or prioritize our own personal comfort over obedience to Jesus, we block His blessings in our lives. It's essential to examine our priorities and align them with God's priorities so that we can experience His Presence, power, and blessing.
