Pastor Joseph Robert "Bobby" Oliveri brings the Word of the Lord on this fine Sunday morning
Jesus' prayer in John 17 reveals his heart for the church and the purpose we carry forward in the world.
In Jesus' final exhortation to his disciples before he is arrested, we can see the ultimate outline of the Christian life he intends for his disciples to follow.
This morning, we'll explore that intersection between the way we live as Christians and the impact our life makes on the world — because Jesus’s teaching helps us understand the Spirit is essential in both of those realms. Therefore we must all strive to be the kind of Christians that are so led or influenced by the Spirit that we are inevitably used by the Spirit in the Spirit’s witness to the world.
John 14:15-31 // Obeying Jesus is not the same thing as loving him. But what does it mean to love Jesus in such a way that we are compelled to follow and obey him? And how is all this to be accomplished? Join us this morning as we explore how the Holy Spirit enables and stregthens Christians to love and obey Christ.
John 14:1-15 — How does faith bring rest to an unrestful heart? It anchors our hope in the promises of God. This morning's sermon will lay out six promises from God's word for a troubled heart.
John 13 - In a striking display of humility and love, Jesus serves his disciples by washing their feet hours before he is arrested and condemned to die. What can Christians learn about the nature of love from this example and how can we seek to love one another in the same way?
As the hour of his death approaches, themes of unbelief, judgment, and darkness underscore the ending of Christ's public ministry and call to live for the glory of God in all things, even in death.
Where is God's kingdom, and who are the citizens of God's kingdom? Isaiah paints a clear picture of the nature and context of the kingdom of God.
Who will deliver the good news of the in-breaking of God's kingdom to the poor and brokenhearted? Jesus is both God's messenger and God's message.
When man fails and fails again, how can they hope to be saved? By God's grace, God's servant suffers for God people that they might live for God's glory. Explore the servant songs of Isaiah in our continued advent series.
As we celebrate the first Sunday of Advent this year, we look to the Prophet Isaiah to consider how he stirred the hope and longing of God's people for their coming King.
We'll explore Peter's confession and Jesus' promise from Matthew 16:13-18 as we install new elders appointed to lead and guide the church in the same truth of the gospel.
In order to grow, remain firm, and resist the enemy, Christians need to stick together. This mornging's service will be sightly different due to a few volunteers being out this week. We will read, pray, and hear from God's word, with a congregational song at the end.

1 Peter 4:7-11 – Peter gives Christians two parallel mindsets we must adopt if we desire to live faithfully in this world as we await our Lord’s return: To live in light of the end of all things and to live as stewards of God’s grace.
Christians both bestow blessing and receive blessing when they live out their faith before others. What does that look like when it costs a great deal? Peter encourages his readers to look to Christ.
Husband and wives, men and women, are heirs together of the grace of life. NOTE: We apologize, there are some audio issues that occurred during the sermon that carried through to the audio file.

Exodus 3-15
As we explore the calling of Moses, the ten plagues, and the exodus event, we are shown God's special care for his people, his power to accomplish his will, and the means by which he will bring it about.
Exodus is an exciting story of Israel's deliverance from captivity and cruel oppression. But the story is not simply about Israel, or even Moses – God's faithfulness and sovereignty, and especially his glory, are the central actors in this epic narrative.
