Pastor Logan Conine brings the word today for Pastor Appreciation. Thank you, Prairie View, for honoring us so well and loving on us so much. We love you!
Pastor Logan Conine brings us the word today. This is from Sunday, October 1st. Please forgive us for it being this late!
Jacob wrestled with both God and man, but only God left him with a blessing. We look at Genesis 32:22-32 today.
Pastors Dillon and Dani Lewis lead our worship today and Pastor Dillon speaks. Please watch and we pray you are blessed!
Even though everything falls apart, even though the world around us crumbles, even though we walk through hell on earth, God has not and will not forsake those who are His. Take comfort in knowing that the Lord sees, hears, and knows!
Pastor Brian Filibeck, Pastor Logan Conine, Children's Leader Jessica Countryman, and Rex Keltner share a recap of all the ministry that happened during the summer! I pray you are blessed by their recaps!
It is so easy to try to make our Christian walk about more than Jesus - but our Christian walk never is more than Jesus. Remember what He has done for you, the life you now have in Him, and what that means.
What does it mean to have a real relationship with the Lord? We are commanded by Jesus to love the Lord our God with all of our heart, all of our mind, all of our soul, and all of our strength, and to love our neighbor as ourself. With that in mind, it is time to get real.
Did you ever wonder how Paul and his companions could keep on going when everything was against them? Have you ever felt this way yourself? If so, you are in good company. Join us as we look at Who and what can give us courage for the conflict.
What is your hope anchored to? If it is not anchored in Jesus Christ, then you don't have biblical hope! We look at Jesus being our anchor today.
The parable of the Good Samaritan is a great example of how Jesus has rescued us, and how we need to enter into the dirt and grime and mess of the world to help rescue others.
Why do you do what you do, live where you live, pursue what you pursue, value what you value? The answer to that question, for Christians, should be simple: Jesus. Once you know your "why," you can discover how that "why" works to glorify God in you and through you unto others.
Sometimes you have to press through the crowd to receive the blessing. Evangelist Terry Davis brings the Word this Sunday morning. We pray he blesses you as he did us!
Becoming a godly man does not just happen over night. It takes intentionality and pursuit. We look at the life of Caleb to learn some valuable lessons - mainly how he points to Christ - which is where all godly men start and where all godly men find their ending.
One of the gods that we are surrounded by is the god of sex. Pornography, adulterty, fornication - these are all rampant in our culture. Fight against these - and help others fight these battles, too. There is victory in Jesus!
Some dangers seem new, but they have always been. We look today at the false god of religion, how Jesus strongly condemned it, and how the Israelites perpetually were plagued by this. Knowing about something is the first step in not falling prey to it.
We finish up our series on 1st and 2nd Thessalonians today. Paul addresses an issue, then points the Thessalonians to the peace of the Lord - so vital for churches today! The only way to live ready for the return of Christ is to be ready, and the only way to be ready is to live ready.
It is the grace of God that in mothers, we see a sacrifical love that points us directly to the sacrifical love of Jesus Christ. Mothers, we honor and appreciate you all today!
Sometimes the battle we are fighting is not the right battle to be fighting - and we look at that today. Because Christ has won our battle, we need to make sure we fight from victory instead of for victory
Today, we take a look at when Jesus washed the feet of the disciples and what that means for us in our own day!
We must believe the truth, guard the truth, practice the truth, and share the truth. And the truth is that Jesus is the only Savior, and all stand in need of a Savior. This sermon is challenging, but if you will listen to it, you will understand why!
We continue in our series on 1st and 2nd Thessalonians. In this part, we look at Paul dealing with an issue involving false understanding, how the antichrist will come, and what Jesus will do when He comes.
Pastor Brian bring us our Easter Sunday message. Come and See is the invitation that is for all - Come and See what Christ has done!
Good Friday is good for us only because of what Christ went through. Pastor Logan brings us a timely message on Good Friday - please give this a listen!
Pastor Logan brings us a Palm Sunday message about the triumphal entry of Christ! You will be blessed!
So many times our memory leads us wrong when it comes to what the Lord has done in our lives - and when our memory becomes "Fauxtographic," we tend to forget who God is and what He can do!
Missionary Tyler Franca - who serves in the Dominican Republic - shares with us today. You will be blessed and we encourage you to support their ministry if you can!
Today we look at 2 Thessalonias Chapter 1, where we see the need to persevere in the midst of persecution and trials. We can take hope because we know that Jesus will return!!!
God is up to something at Prairie View! 3 new members and 6 baptisms today! Pastor Brian Filibeck preaches on baptism! You will be blessed!
Gideon Representative Lee Becker shares with us today. The Gideon's is an excellent ministry, and I encourage you to find out how you can support them and get a representative into your church! You will not be disappointed!
Paul gives a list of things that we need to do in order to be ready for the return of Christ. These practical commands are so beneficial for our lives as Christians - not only so that we can live ready in light of Christ's return, but so that we can help others live ready for Christ's return as well!
Today we look at the Scriptures that bring us such hope - the Scriptures about the return of Christ! We have no hope if Christ is not resurrected, and we have no hope if He is not returning! Thankfully, the same Christ that is resurrected is the same Christ that will come back for those who are His! The only way to be ready is to live ready!
Paul walks the Thessalonians (and us) through what it means to live holy lives - how we are called to holiness and not uncleanness. We also look at the way holiness is worked out in our lives: it is not by what we say - but by how we live before the Father and in our relationships with others. True holiness is living empowered by the Holy Spirit, ready for Christ's return.
There is a common theme in Scripture of how the hearts of different people responded differently to God in the same situations. We look at the captivity of the Israelites, and see how they responded when things got worse for them instead of getting better, even after deliverance had been initiated, proclaimed, and begun. For us today, we take this principle and seek to make sure our hearts don't grow hard against the Lord, even in the midst of trial and adversity. The Lord knows what He is doing, even if we cannot see His whole plan!
Do you have faith even now, even in the midst of pain, hurt, and hopelessness? God is with us even now. Pastor Logan Conine preaches for us today out of John 11:1-44.
This is our Vision Sunday for 2023. 2023 is a year of reset - either in a positive or negative way. Positive reset will include Recognize/Respond, Engage/Encourage, Sanctify/Solidify, Evangelize/Emerge, and Test/Trust. Negative reset will include Resist/Resent, Escape/Evade, Slip/Slide, Erode/Erase, and Topple/Trample. Which reset will be your defining choice in 2023?
Hope promised becomes hope expected, which becomes hope delivered. We celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ today! He is our Hope, and the only Hope we have! This is our Christmas Day service.
We know that a Savior has been promised. We look tonight at the expectation of that Savior. This is our Christmas Eve Candlelight Service.
Worldly hope looks for an immediate response - biblical hope is the confident expectation that something good will happen in the future. We look at the difference between these two, and ultimately come to realize that Jesus Christ is our hope! And He is a hope that will not fail!
In this sermon, we really get to see the pastoral heart of Paul and the importance of keeping the faith as a body of believers. We also see how Jesus is worth it in the midst of all suffering, and how we are to grow in love and holiness while remembering that the Lord is coming back!!!
Today we continue in our series on 1st Thessalonians. We take a look at the joy of salvation, and what it means to live accordingly in light of Christ's return.
In part 2 of our series, we look at Paul's heart for the Thessalonian church, and how he preched to them the gospel that was entrusted to him, not seeking to please men, but God. In a world where pastors have become men-pleasers, it is a breath of fresh air to study about someone who only sought to please God. Everything Paul said and did was in the understanding of Christ being Lord and of His return - and it drove him to preach the gospel unashamed!
We start our series on 1st and 2nd Thessalonians today! The main theme of these books is the return of Christ, but they are also full of practical ways to live in light of Christ's return. We hope you enjoy!
Unity in the local body is so important! We walk through Ephesians 4 today and look at how we can best honor Christ through unity in the church!
Depression is not something that is often talked about in churches, and we need to change that, not just because so many people struggle in isolation with depression, but because there are biblical examples of people used by God who struggled with depression. May this sermon speak to us all on a practical level, and maybe we run to the arms of Jesus, even with our depression!
We close out our Delegated series today, which has been our series on stewardship. Today we look at giving, specifically tithes and offerings, and what it means for you and I today. We cannot be good stewards in a biblical sense if we are not good stewards of our finances, and it is an immediate reflection upon our relationship with the Lord!
Today we look at how we can properly steward forgiveness and why it matters. We look at three specific aspects of forgiveness: the forgiveness we have received from God in Christ; the forgiveness we are to give to each other as forgiven people; and the forgiveness we sometimes have to give to ourselves, which might be the hardest one of the three to accept and implement!
We take a look at what spiritual gifts are, how they are to operate, and why they are essential for the church today. We cannot be good stewards if we do not properly stewards the spiritual gifts God has given us!
In the second part of our stewardship series, we take a look at what it means to steward our bodies. We specificially look at Romans, Chapter 12:1-2, as our baseline Scriptures and go to other Scriptures to help us define and understand what it means for our lives. How we live is one of the greatest testaments to how we honor Christ.
Delegated is a series on stewardship. Part 1 is on the Word of God, which we need to be good stewards of! We look at what Scriptures says about itself, but then we see how Jesus used Scripture and things we can do to be good stewards of God's Word!
Paul says that he bows his knees to the Father because of the mystery of the gospel - of salvation - and that the church has been chosen by God to reveal His manifold wisdom to the principlaties and powers - and that God is to receive glory in the church by Jesus Christ! Church is more significant than we often think!
There comes a time when you have to stop, sit, and let Jesus walk by. This message is for anyone who feels overwhelmed, left out, worn down, or just empty and discouraged. May Jesus walk by as you watch this.
God is constantly pulling us deeper and deeper - and there is great reason to follow Him into the deep. No matter where you are, you can always go deeper with the Lord.
Noise is all around us these days. And there are so many making such a racket - but there is a difference between the sound of racket and the sound of God's church standing up as they are empowered by the Spirit of God.
We find ourselves in the midst of different stages in life - the shoreline of apparent defeat, the dry ground in between, or the shoreline of absolute victory. But thanks be to God, Jesus Christ is with us through all of it!
We are going to look at some principles from the life of Daniel that he lived out before the Lord: faithfulness, faultlessness, and fearlessness.
Most Christians are fine with Jesus as their Prophet, and Jesus as their Priest, but shudder to think of Jesus as their King. Today, we look at all three and see how they are all true of Jesus, and why it matters!
Pastor Brian Filibeck shares the Word with us today. Testimonies are so important, even when they are not our own, and Pastor Brian shows us just that! Take a listen and be blessed!
We are called to keep our eyes focused on the salvation that only comes through Christ, even in the midst of persecution and opposition. In this series, we will look at the Book of 1st Peter, drawing hope from the realization that we are elect exiles, chosen by God to live in a world that is not our home, but focusing on the redemption found in Christ alone and in His soon coming return as King!
Pentecost is about more than just tongues - it is about being empowered by the Holy Spirit - God Himself - to be forever changed into bold witnesses for Christ. God in us - the power of Pentecost!

We celebrate Pastor Justin and Jessica today. Guest speaker Logan Conine walks us through the 23rd Psalm as the model given for shepherds. Be blessed!
Motherhood is under attack in the world today - and I am reminded of the quote attributed to Edmund Burke that says "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." So we will look at some mothers in Scripture and see how important they are to the Lord - and may we be inspired to cherish the mothers in our lives and to fight for them the way the Lord does.
We are called to keep our eyes focused on the salvation that only comes through Christ, even in the midst of persecution and opposition.

Three words: He is Risen. Eternal significance beyond all we can think or imagine! He - Jesus! Is - has already happened and is a past, present, and future fact! Risen - alive and seated at the right hand of the Father! The whole of the Christian life is dependent upon these three little words!
The people expected something different. They thought Jesus came to be their earthly king. But He came to be much more than that!
We are called to keep our eyes focused on the salvation that only comes through Christ, even in the midst of persecution and opposition. In this series, we will look at the Book of 1st Peter, drawing hope from the realization that we are elect exiles, chosen by God to live in a world that is not our home, but focusing on the redemption found in Christ alone and in His soon coming return as King!
We take a break from our "Elect Exiles" series and have Guest Speaker Logan Conine preach! Take a listen and be blessed!

The testimonies of those in the church who attended Winterfest Youth Retreat. Look at all that God has done and look at all that God is doing!
In this sermon, we take a look at Psalm 118. We draw encouragement from the steadfast love of the Lord, and as we are reminded of all that the Lord has done for us, we become moved to worship Him for who He is and all that He has done.
Sin is so destructive, and we have every reason to fight against it. In this series, we will look at sin, as uncomfortable as it will be, in order to more adequately and properly fight against sin so that we may honor the Lord through holy living. May we see Jesus so clearly that sin becomes so disgusting to us that we will do whatever is necessary to rid it from our lives, our families, and our church.

We are commanded by Jesus in Scripture to be baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We explore what baptism is and then celebrate those who have made the decision to be baptized in obedience to their Lord!
We remember the faithfulness of the Lord in 2021, and with that understanding we look ahead to 2022 to focus on these three things: discipleship, fellowship, and sanctification. When we do things God's way, we get God's results.
