In the book of Samuel, David started out as the youngest of eight brothers, lowest in the rank, and became one of the most remarkable men to ever live. But that didn't happen overnight—David spent much of his life in obscurity. In this message, Pastor Bob Merritt teaches us that what God is developing in us while we’re waiting in obscurity is as important as what God wants to do through us.

Who or what's your giant—threatens yous, blocks you, and stands in your way from moving forward? At some point we have to face our giant in order to defeat it. In this message, Pastor Bob Merritt teaches us that with God's help we can defeat even the biggest of giants.

God created us for friendship—first with himself and then with others. In this message, Pastor Jason Strand teaches us about four essential components to all great friendships.

Have you ever been through a time that can only be described as wilderness? It feels like the world is crashing down around you. You're not sleeping well and have a lot on your mind. Whatever it may be, you're not alone. In this message, Pastor Jason Strand teaches us that God doesn't have us in the wilderness to make us bitter, but to make us better.

Have you ever been around someone who is mean or dishonest? If you have, these are usually two indicators that you've interacted with a fool. In this message, Pastor Bob Merritt teaches us that the world is full of fools, and if you’re not careful you can really damage yourself by being around them. Sometimes we can’t avoid being around fools, but we can trust God to guide our interactions with them.

Is there someone in your life who is treating you unfairly? An acquaintance who is lying about you or a boss that has it in for you? If you do, there's probably a good chance that you've thought about getting even with them. In this message, Pastor Bob Merritt teaches us that even in our best attempts to do right, there will always be people out there to harm us in some way. When you’re dealing with a person who has a pattern of anger, jealousy, or evil intent, it takes more than an apology for trust to be restored. It takes a lot of strength, but if you want to know why God prospered David, blessed him, and made him King, it's because David chose to see the good in Saul. Let's work on learning how to trust God to grant us the strength to see the good in people.
