A Love that Compels | 2 Corinthians 5:11-15

A Sure and Steadfast Anchor for the Soul | Hebrews 6:11-20
The writer of the book of Hebrews encourages the battled-hardened Jewish Christians not to back down in the face of opposition.

Why we need strong men and how to support them
Many of the problems in our society are not linked to toxic masculinity, but rather the lack of masculinity.

Pastor Ross shares three simple ways that we all can bless and support the men in our lives.
What Will Judgement Day Look Like | 2 Corinthians 5:9-10
Judgement Day awaits all of us. But for those who have put their faith in Christ, it won't be a day of tears and fears - but a day of celebration and praise.

Change Your Perspective - Look to Jesus | 2 Corinthians 4:13-18
The old adage is true, where you are looking is where you will go. When life is hard, it is easy to focus our attention on the problems and the difficulties. Thankfully, we have another option - a new perspective that may not change the circumstances, but allows us to see things from God's vantage point. This message is the third and final of a series of messages through 2 Corinthians 4, a passage that is meant to encourage those who are going through the heavy seasons in life.
