Adopted Into the Father's Love | Ryan Meade | Wilmington

From the beginning, God's plan was not just to forgive us, but to bring us home through the process of adoption (Ephesians 1:5). Jesus promised that we would not be left as orphans (John 14:18), and through the Spirit, we are no longer fearful slaves but beloved sons and daughters (Romans 8:15). These facts must cause us to ask: are we living like children of the Father, or still carrying the mindset of orphans?
 
Join us in Wilmington as Head Pastor Ryan Meade challenges to step out of our orphan spirit and into the joy of adoption.

Seeing Into the Supernatural | Matthew Bollinger | Chapel Hill

As Christians in today's world, we need the gift of discernment more than ever before. The Holy Spirit has made this spiritual gift available for each one of us. However, the spirit of this age can make discerning of thing around us very difficult. Just as Peter, James, and John at times tried to get Jesus to respond in an improper way, we can all make the same mistake. Instead, lean in and watch the witness of the Spirit inside of you.
 
Join us in Chapel Hill as Head Pastor Matthew Bollinger encourages us to seek the Spirit's gift of discernment in this age we have been placed in.

God is Near | Nate Silverman | Mooresville

When the psalmist says "deep calls to deep" (Psalm 42:7), he feels like he's drowning beneath God's waves. Yet Moses reminds us: "The word is very near you" (Deuteronomy 30:11–14). Even when your soul feels crushed, His nearness responds to your depths. You don't need to climb mountains or chase distant experiences. God is already near, in your everyday life.
 
Join us in Mooresville as guest speaker Nate Silverman encourages us to turn to the Lord in the midst of our wilderness seasons.

The Call to Servanthood | Cory Meade | Wilmington

Jesus first sets an example, and then calls us, as his disciples—to live as servants. The role of the servant changes a little bit in the transition from the Old Testament to the New Testament, but both have information on how we might embrace the characteristics of being a servant.
 
Join us in Wilmington as guest speaker Cory Meade explores the Biblical role of the servant, and reflects on how it can be translated into our lives today.

Repentance Results in Joy | Sarah Bollinger | Chapel Hill

In the tension of the best and worst of times that we are living in, we're called to shine and carry God's Presence. Repentance opens the way to walk in our true identity as sons and daughters, receiving the joy of God's Kingdom instead of the lies that steal, kill, and destroy.
 
Join us in Chapel Hill as Pastor Sarah Bollinger unpacks Jesus' command to repent in the light of our missions as Christians on this earth.

Walking in the Spirit | Becky Wicker | Mooresville

Do we want to live a natural life or live from the Spiritual Realm? John 3:6 says "that which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is Spirit." The Holy Spirit's role in our lives is to connect us to God the Father and Jesus Christ. To walk by the Spirit is the most effective way of releasing the Kingdom of God and making a real difference in the world around us. Are we too distracted with our natural lives and not aware of the Spirit's leading in our lives?
 
Join us in Mooresville as Pastor Becky Wicker invites us to honor the power, presence, and leading of the Holy Spirit.

An Invitation to Encounter the Father's Love | Ryan Meade | Wilmington

In the Old Testament, God was rarely called Father—just a handful of times and often in a very general way. But in the New Testament everything shifts: over 100 times in John alone, Jesus speaks of God as Father. Why? Because the Song was sent to reveal the Father (John 14:9) and to bring us into relationship with Him. Jesus shows us that God is not a distant ruler, but "Our Father" (Matthew 6:9), the One we can run to with childlike trust. 
 
Join us in Wilmington as Head Pastor Ryan Meade lays a foundation for the weeks ahead with an invitation to consider our relationship with the Father's love.

The Word of His Grace | Byron Wicker | Mooresville

God and the Word of His grace restore and grant us our inheritance in Christ, turning ruins into something resilient and meaningful (Acts 20:32). It clarifies confusion, brings peace from fear, transforms weakness into strength, provides stability amidst uncertainty, and created beauty from brokenness. In God's Kingdom, nothing is every wasted. When we surrender to Him, He can take every aspect of our lives and make them beautiful.
 
Join us in Mooresville as Senior Pastor Byron Wicker dives into the beautiful and encouraging reality of grace.
