What has your ultimate allegiance? What beliefs would you give your life for? This Sunday, we started our All Saints series as we look at followers of Jesus throughout history to learn from the past as we live out our faith today. The early Christian martyr's courage of conviction led them to lay down their lives to declare their faith in Christ - how can we daily pick up our cross and live without compromise to declare Jesus as Lord?

Everywhere we go, we are called to be founts of living water for others as Jesus is a fount for us. But unless our hearts are activated towards our city, our friends, our families, and our co-workers, we will never become the fount that Jesus invites us to be. This Sunday, Ps Jon Laurenzo closes out our Fount series with a message on what it means to partner with God in the vision of abundance he has for us.

When we are willing to be honest about what we need healing from, we have the opportunity to experience true healing from God.  This Sunday, Pastor Jon preached from the gospel account of the woman at the well. Jesus will meet you in your areas of pain or shame, if only we will surrender to him.

Jesus is the only one who can satisfy us. Pastor Ryan Schlachter preaches a message from Jeremiah 2 about forsaking the fountain of living water for broken cisterns. The cycle of sin is exhausting and tiring, but the grace of God calls us out of those cycles and calls us to source of life that is Jesus Christ.

We are called to look beyond ourselves and, through partnership with the Spirit, to step out in faith for others. Whether you’re just stepping into tithing or making a pledge to go above and beyond with Vision Builders, we believe that God is going to do a new thing through us as a church.
