Pastor Marvin Wojda joined us for our 9th Annual Motorcycle Sunday and shared a powerful invitation: to experience the ride of a lifetime — life with Jesus.

The Apostle Paul gave us a breathtaking vision: as followers of Jesus, we are Citizens of Heaven.

But what does that really mean?

It means we live here, but our hearts and hopes point there. We’re called to bring Heaven closer, to live today in a way that pulls eternity into the present.

When you think about the task that we, as citizens of Heaven, have, it can feel like an impossible one. And it is.

But thankfully, we aren't alone. God sent us a helper—someone who makes the impossible possible.

We’ve been exploring what it means to be citizens of Heaven first. On Sunday, we talked about the tension of being citizens of Heaven while still living here on Earth. A tension the biblical authors called exile.

As citizens of God's Kingdom, we are called to walk the way of the exile.

This week, we explored the radical and surprising nature of God’s Kingdom. A Kingdom where the poor are blessed, enemies are loved, and power is displayed through humility and sacrifice. As citizens of this Kingdom, that requires us to live in an upside-down way.

What does it mean to follow Jesus in an age of political division? This week, we explore how being citizens of heaven shapes our engagement with the world, not as partisans, but as ambassadors of Christ.

It’s not about choosing a side, but choosing the way of the cross.

Mother’s Day can be a day of celebration—or a day of sorrow. Sometimes both. In this message, we acknowledge the complexity of this day—the joy of being loved well, the ache of loss, the weight of longing, and the beauty of memories.

Turning to the story of Hannah, we reflect on how Scripture holds space for the full range of human experience. And how God meets us, not after we’ve figured it all out, but right in the middle of the tension.

This week, we welcomed Scott Hildebrandt, Associate Director at Ranger Lake Bible Camp, to share a powerful message on what it means to be made in the image of God. Rooted in Genesis 1, Scott unpacks the deep truth of our identity as image-bearers and how that shapes the way we live, relate, and serve.
