No other book in the Bible tells us how to live our lives and face our problems better than the book of James. We’re all going to face challenges in life, but the question is: How will we respond to them? In this message, Senior Pastor Bob Merritt teaches us how to build a foundation of strength—so that when a crisis comes, we’re prepared to face it.

Hearing and doing are two different things. And when it comes to faith, one can’t live without the other. In this message, Pastor Jason Strand emphasizes that our faith in Jesus Christ should affect every part of our lives—from what we think and believe to how we act, spend our time, and care for others.

Scripture speaks numerous times about the immense power of our words—they can build someone up or tear them down. In this message, Pastor John Alexander explores how the words we use every day—whether in speech, text, email, or social media—lead to either life or death. We’re reminded that, for better or worse, the words we use reveal what’s going on inside our hearts.

For many of us, the biggest fights and sources of tension in our relationships stem from comparison and jealousy. So, what can we do about it? In this message, Pastor Bob Merritt shows us what it means to curb those habits, humbly put God at the center of our lives, and learn to be grateful for what we have instead of always wanting more.

What does it look like to have a powerful and effective prayer life? You sit down and pray, but then what? It’s so easy to give up when we don’t get an immediate answer. Or maybe our prayer is so vague, we don’t even notice when God does answer us. In this message, Pastor Jason Strand explores what three qualities will strengthen our prayer lives and deepen our relationship with God as a result.
