If you are looking for God’s calling in your life, start by being faithful at work. Work isn’t supposed to be separate from our Christian faith. It’s a part of who we are. It’s our missions field.

Sermon for Sunday, November 12, 2023

Jesus is calling; how will you respond? We can say one thing, but falter when it comes to action. It’s time to do a self-check and see if our heart, hands, and feet match up to our mouths. On Sunday, November 5, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan asks two questions: Are you ready? Or are you resistant?

Running out, blind and naked, onto a battlefield makes you the first one killed on the battlefield. Yet, we do that every day in our spiritual lives.

On Sunday, October 22, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan gives us four strategies to combat Everyday Spiritual Warfare. 

We may not like it. We may wish to pretend it's not there. But evil is real. It's vicious and predatory and looking for someone to destroy. But we are not left alone, unequipped and unprepared. On Sunday, October 15, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan reminds us that Jesus is our Deliverer.

Jesus is calling. But there are a thousand reasons to put it off. Too busy, too old, too young, financial trouble, relationship conflicts, not smart enough… He has heard it all. He heard it 2,000 years ago, and He still hears it today. But enough is enough. If you are ready to be a disciple, it’s time to drop everything and follow Him. On Sunday October 1, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan encourages everyone to be a no-excuse disciple.

Faith is not saying God can do something, it's believing that He will. That, even during the hardest times, He loves you and has your best interests in mind. On Sunday, September 17, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan reminds us that without a need we would not have any faith at all.

Life can wear you down. Whether it’s non-stop physical, mental, or emotional stress, after a while, you begin to feel hopeless and numb. Like there’s no way out. But Jesus didn’t come to sit on the sidelines and watch you struggle. He came to be a part of your life, to experience life beside you, and bring healing. On Sunday, September 10, 2023, Pastor Chad Gilligan begins his new sermon series, Never the Same.
