Journey Through the New Testament
Our entire church family is journeying through the New Testament together in 2026, one chapter at a time. We’ve created a simple reading plan, along with an audio version to walk alongside it. This journey is an invitation to slow down, open Scripture, and let God shape you one chapter at a time. Whether you feel incredibly close to Jesus right now or you’re just finding your way back, our hope is that this year feels like a fresh start with Him. As you read, take your time, underline what stands out, ask honest questions, and invite the Holy Spirit to speak into your everyday life. And remember, you’re not doing this alone, we’re doing it together. Listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify using the links below

Breakthrough Sunday: Hope Has Risen
Because of Jesus—because He stepped into our place, carried the weight of our sin, and rose victorious from the grave—no one is too far gone for God to reach and no one is too broken for Him to restore. At the cross, grace rewrites every story. Hope is alive. Purpose is restored. A future is secured.
Easter is a reminder that no matter how dark things feel, hope is never gone—it’s alive because of Christ. This is the power of new life, fresh starts, and the breakthrough that changed everything.
Join us as we celebrate the resurrection and the new life Jesus offers. Come experience a powerful message, This Changes Everything, and discover the unshakable hope we have because of Him. Bring a friend, bring your family—this is the perfect Sunday to experience something meaningful together.
