We all have unmet expectations in our lives that lead to us feeling disappointed. It’s easy to get wrapped up in the regrets of our past, but an encounter with God can transform our disappointments to something new. Even when we are not looking for God, He is looking for us – He is not disinterested in our disappointment. The post Turning Disappoin…

At the end of our lives, there are four phrases that we all long to hear. In week two of Words to Live By, Pastor Kevin shared about the second phrase… “I’m sorry”.

In the last week of our Awaken series, Pastor Kevin shares how Jesus flipped the rules that the world had written about acceptance.
