Drinking from the Fountain of Living Water | Becky Wicker | Mooresville

"For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewn themselves cisterns—broken cisterns that can hold no water." (Jeremiah 2:13). The world is ravished with information, love of self, and love of pleasure. These are all fountains that we find ourselves turning to instead of God to get our fill. These cisterns cannot hold water and will not satisfy us. Only God Himself is the source of life. What are we drinking from that holds no water?
 
Join us in Mooresville as Pastor Becky Wicker exhorts us to turn our hearts back to God to drink from the Fountain of Living Water that will never run dry.

Calling Out of the Familiar: Saying Yes to God | Jeremy Hardy | Wilmington

In I Samuel 3, we see Samuel called into the unknown as he learns to recognize and respond to the voice of God. What causes real change in our lives isn't external pressure, but a surrendered heart. When we stop holding on to our lives and place them fully in God's hands, we find the courage to step into the things he's called us into.
 
Join us in Wilmington as Meghan Merritt, COO of the YMCA of Southeastern NC, shares the rich Christian history and mission of the YMCW, and Jeremy Hardy, Executive Director of the Midtown YMCA, connects the calling that birthed the YMCA 175 years ago to an invitation for each of us to say yes to the Lord in our own lives.

Corinthians - Part 1 | Matthew Bollinger | Chapel Hill

The church in Corinth was messy, divided, and full of issues—just like many families today—but Paul reminds us that Jesus still deeply loves His Bride.
 
Join us in Chapel Hill as Head Pastor Matthew Bollinger begins a series on Corinthians by exploring how trading the world's "wisdom" for the power of the cross brings us into the holiness and unity we were made for.

Walk This Way | Cory Meade | Mooresville

Throughout his epistles, Paul refers to a life following Christ as a kind of walk. This concept is built on a well-founded tradition set out in the Old Testament as a path God has laid out for His servants. It may seem harsh or restricting, but the reality of the path God has laid out for us is that it allows us to fully live in the glory God has created us for.
 
Join us in Mooresville as Pastor Cory Meade explores the nature of the Christian Walk, and how we can choose to follow Christ even in the face of cultural tension.

The Resurrection Reveals the Father | Matthew Bollinger | Chapel Hill

Join us for Resurrection Sunday in Chapel Hill as Head Pastor Matthew Bollinger explores how the resurrection of Jesus both conquers the grave and provides the ultimate revelation of God as our Father.

From the Garden to Emmaus | Byron Wicker | Mooresville

Two meals in the Bible have significantly impacted human history. The first, in Genesis 3, introduced separation, shame, fear, and death, as humanity became aware of itself outside of God. Later, after Jesus' resurrection, in Luke 24, a different meal at the village of Emmaus took place, offering people the chance to see Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior with their own eyes.
 
Join us for Resurrection Sunday in Mooresville as Head Pastor Byron Wicker reflects on the encounter of the disciples in Emmaus and what it is to know Christ.

Hail King Jesus! | Ryan and Sean Meade | Wilmington

Mark tells us about how Jesus orchestrated his entry into Jerusalem to clearly fulfill Old Testament scriptures from Zechariah, Genesis, and Psalms (Mark 11:1–10). He showed clearly that He was and is King and Messiah, but he came in a surprising way—just as he often does in our lives.
 
Join us in Wilmington as Head Pastor Ryan Meade and guest Sean Meade discuss the meaning of this rich passage in Jesus' time and ours.

Extravagant Worship | Matthew Bollinger | Chapel Hill

True worship is never cheap—it costs us something, fills our lives with the fragrance of Heaven, and shapes us to die to ourselves so that Christ's life can be revealed in us. As Jesus enters Jerusalem as King, we are invited to examine our own response—religious, disappointed, or prophetic—and to pour out our lives in wholehearted devotion to Him.
 
Join us for Palm Sunday in Chapel Hill as Head Pastor Matthew Bollinger explores the power for extravagant worship through the story of Mary pouring costly perfume on Jesus' feet.

The Blood and Water | Byron Wicker | Mooresville

Sometimes we give everything—our time, strength, prayers, and love—only to feel that there are no results, just spilled out effort. On a dark hill outside Jerusalem, the Son of God quietly said, "I thirst," and in that moment, His life was poured out; not wasted, but given. Whatever you hold, whatever seems expensive or might be lost, offer it to Him. There is no waste in the Kingdom.
 
Join us in Mooresville as Head Pastor Byron Wicker encourages us to give what we have the the Lord, and trust in Him to fulfill our desires.

Set Free by Truth | Cory Meade | Wilmington

With the changing technological world, it feels like it's becoming increasingly harder to identify what's true and what is not. There is good news, though. Jesus is the person of truth, and has a partnership with the word of God and the Spirit of Truth so that we have the tools at our disposal to combat the lies of the enemy.
 
Join us in Wilmington as Pastor Cory explores the effect the truth of Jesus can have on our daily interactions with life.
