Guest Speaker- Pastor Eric Smith

Pastor Dave Dooley teaches on Colossians 3:23-4:1. He relates this portion of scripture to our modern day work place but goes back to Paul's words from 3:17, that in whatever you do , do it for the Lord. Take a listen and see how the Holy Spirit will challenge you to live out your life in Christ in the work place!

The Book of Colossians |  Christ Alone

Week 11 | Colossians 3:23-4:1

Pastor Justin Braun talks about connecting together as believers in our second week of our series, "Who We Are". He brings to the platform  Brandon and Kristin Stacey who share about their life changing experiences with being involved and connected to the body of Christ.

Pastor Justin ends our Generosity series, taking us to the book of Habakkuk, where we learn what it means to be fully generous towards God. We see through Habakkuk's honest cries and complaints about the chaos ahead, that generosity with God is being fully surrendered and open to God about our hurts, worries, fears, and frustrations; giving those things completely over to Him. What are we holding on to that we are afraid to give to the Lord? Talk to Him about it today!

We welcome in the Advent season with our new series, "HE IS, the illumination of God's Promise!" We look back at Genesis and see the promises of God fulfilled through Abraham. A Promise of place, posterity, and position. As we continue celebrating the Advent season, let up anticipate with hope the continued promises of God!

HE IS 

HE IS | The Illumination of God's Promise

The second week of advent in the series, He Is, brings us to see that Jesus is the spark of hope. Pastor Justin takes us through the life of Joseph from the old testament. We see so many parallels in Joseph's life to the promised Messiah, Jesus. Just like these stories from the old testament were a sign to bring hope to the  coming Savior, we can be a sign to those around us that lead people to Jesus. What are you holding on to that is keeping you from being a light to others?

He Is | The Spark of Hope

On Christmas Eve Sunday, we come to our last sermon of the series, "HE IS", with HE IS | The Radiance of Divine Love. Pastor Justin takes us through 1 Chronicles 29 where David gives thanks to God and declares that everything that he has received has been given by God; even the things we offer back to Him and give to others. But before that, we take a quick look into David's life, even his short comings. What have we received that we can share with others? It's Christ Himself! HE IS the One who goes beyond our lives and surpasses all of our mistakes and victories; showing us that HE IS the radiance of divine love.

HE IS | The Radiance of Divine Love

It's the third week of Advent as Pastor Dave teaches on the Moses, a story of redemption. We see how that even when all hope seems lost, "HE IS" the brilliance of redemption; always working even when we can't see or understand.

HE IS | The Brilliance of Redemption

We welcome intern, Bailey Sonnenberg, to bring us the Word coming into the new year. He leads us to Psalm 1, showing us that true blessing comes from those who desire God's instruction. Meditating on God's Word is what brings life and vitality; like a tree firmly planted by streams of water.-psalm 1:3. This new year, will you choose to actively participate in life with God?

Stand Alone Sermon | A Tree By The Stream

We bring in 2024 with a series called, "Pray First | The transformative power of a life built on prayer". Pastor Ben shares from Matthew 6 and how prayer is the lifeblood of our faith. Prayer should be our first response to all things, not our last resort. Pastor Ben then encourages the church into 21 days of prayer and fasting together; that we would be a praying church that truly seeks the Lord, not just a church that prays.

Pray First

Pray First | 21 Days of Prayer

Our second week of, "Pray First", takes us to the Lord's Prayer. As common as this communal prayer is for many churches, the depth and life giving means of this prayer comes directly from our heart posture. Pastor Dave walks us through some key elements of this prayer that Jesus directed us to pray, to better understand that this isn't just a "religious" prayer, but one the Lord knew we needed to abide in Him with.

Pray First | The Lord's Prayer

Pastor Justin teaches on how we can pray the scriptures, God's Truth, in our prayer lives. Looking specifically at Psalm 23, he asks the question, "What is the goal of praying?" It is to shift our perspective to see how God desires to lead us for His Name's Sake, to recognize the pattern of His provision and protection, and to recognize His rod and staff that surround us.

Pray First | Psalm 23

We finish out our 21 day series on prayer going through Psalm 63. Pastor Ben took us through David's words on seeking after the Lord, knowing Him, and trusting Him. David was still continuing to praise God even among his dire circumstances because He knew God was for him and victorious! We are encouraged to continually abide in God's Word and confidently pray first in all things.

Pray First  | Psalm 63

Pastor Justin Braun teaches his last sermon here at NapNap before he and his wife Emily transition to the new church the Lord has called them. He takes us to the all familiar story of David and Goliath; however, there is quite a twist to the application of this scripture that you may have never thought before. Take a listen, be encouraged, walk away changed.

Stand Alone | David & Goliath

We start a new sermon series going through the Gospel of John. Pastor Ben gives an overview of John's account of the life and ministry of Jesus.

The Gospel of John

The Gospel Of John | Week 1// Overview

We are diving in to the Gospel of John, as Pastor Dave walks us through John 1:1-18. We see that Jesus is the Light and Life and makes His dwelling among us. For us who have received Him, are we willing to share Him with others?

The Gospel of John |  Week 2

We welcome guest speaker, Dwayne Mills, to share an update on his mission organization. Dwayne is the director of ARO, Appalachia Reach Out, an organization that meets the needs of the impoverished, while being the hands and feet of Jesus; sharing the gospel message. He shares amazing testimonies of what God is doing and challenges us as a church to say, "Yes", to what ever Jesus wants for our lives before even being asked.

Pastor Ben takes us thought week 3 of our series through the Gospel of John. We learn about John the Baptist and how he lived out the calling on his life; to lead people to Jesus. John's only goal was to lead people to repentance and put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ, our Messiah. This makes us think about our own lives and callings. Will other's be pointed to Jesus when they look at our life?

The Gospel of John | Week 3

We welcome back one of our veteran pastors, Joe Proudfoot, to bring the word this morning. We are in week 4 going through the gospel of John. We are introduced to some of the first encounters that Jesus has with His disciples. Through these encounters, we see  an invitation to follow Him, that He is relational, transformational, and directs us to be on-mission to do as He did.

The Gospel of John | Week 4

Pastor Dave Dooley takes us through chapter 2 of John, talking about the wedding at Cana where Jesus turns the water into wine. We take a look at deeper spiritual implications throughout this miracle and are left with the question, "what do you need to surrender to Jesus, so He can fill you up?"

The Gospel of John | Week 5

Pastor Dave teaches week 6 of our series in John on Palm Sunday. He teaches on the last part of John chapter 2 where Jesus clears out the temple of the money changers. Pastor Dave brings into prospective the matters of the heart and asks if we are allowing Jesus to clear out our temple; us. We are God's temple. Will we give Jesus the authority to purify His temple?

The Gospel of John  | Week 6

Happy Resurrection Day! We are in week 7 of our series through the Gospel of John. Pastor Ben teaches from John chapter 3 where we are introduced to a Pharisee named Nicodemus. Jesus revealed the truth that you must be born again to see the kingdom of heaven. As we end the service with brothers and sisters getting baptized and testifying to the new life they have in Christ, we are left with this question; "Have you made yourself available to be born again?"

Gospel of John | Week 7 (Easter Baptisms)

We reach John chapter 4 in week 8 through the Gospel of John. Pastor Dave teaches on Jesus' encounter with the woman at the well. We see Jesus go beyond comfort and the norm to reach the lost. Are we willing to say "yes" to where Jesus is calling us to go?

The Gospel of John | Week 8

We are in week 9 going through the gospel of John. Pastor Ben teaches on the royal official who asked Jesus to heal his son. At Jesus' very word the boy was healed and official believed. Through this time, Jesus told the crowd, unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe. We are challenged to re-examine our faith; is it dictated by circumstances or does your belief carry you through circumstances?

The Gospel of John | Week 9

Week 10 through the Gospel of John brings us to chapter 5; where Jesus heals the man at the pool of Bethesda. We see the Jewish leaders completely overlook this miracle and start questioning Jesus on breaking man's Sabbath laws. Through this, we take a hard look at our hearts in the area of control. Are we wielding or yielding control to work of the Holy Spirit? Are we missing the bigger reality by holding on to our own ways of thinking and seeing?

The Gospel of John |  Week 10

Pastor Dave preaches the first part of our two part sermon from John 5:18-47; talking about the authority of Jesus. Is He Lord over your life or are we just following the religion and traditions of men?

The Gospel of John | Week 11

Pastor Dave picks up from last week with part two of John 5:18-47, talking about the authority of Jesus. Jesus explains how He is one with the Father and that by only through believing in Him, you may have eternal life. Have you placed your hope and trust in Jesus?

The Gospel of John | Week 12

Sunday, July 17, 2016 // This week we pick up in Colossians 16-23 as we move through our summer series.

Greater // Colossians Summer Series // Week 7

Week two of the sermon series, "Vintage Christmas" hits on the truth that trust and obedience are always God's way. Pastor Chip walks us through the accounts found in Luke and Matthew when Mary and Joseph would find out they have been chosen to be the parents of Jesus the promised Messiah. It would take trust and obedience from both of them to follow God's plan. From their story we learn that you don't have to understand the plan to "Trust" that God has a purpose!

Vintage Christmas// Truth: Trust and Obediance are always God's way

We start off our new series, "Suit Up", teaching on the most vital part of a warriors armor; the belt. The belt held everything together, from keeping up the breastplate, to holding the sword. Without it, everything would come sliding down and you wouldn't be able to fight off the enemy affectively. That is why we so strongly need the belt of truth (knowing who God is) in our spiritual armor to fight off the lies of the enemy. Knowing who God is, is what will hold all the other pieces of our spiritual armor up!

Suit Up | Belt of Truth

We exist to see people come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The church is so much more than a building. It is a body of believers called by our Lord Jesus Christ to share the Gospel with those who do not yet know who Jesus is. As the church, we gather together regularly through Sunday Morning Worship, activities, groups, and much more.
