WE are to worship

WE are to worship, by Gwen Howell Growing up in the church, I got to a point where I thought the goal in worship was to have a personal, private moment with God. I would close my eyes and try to step away from anyone that I was standing near so that I could raise…

Glorifying God in the Monotony – a post from Noah Winstead

I’m sure we’ve all been there before: caught in a summer job, long-term project, or class that feels exhausting. It brings no joy to us and sooner or later we all end up looking at the clock, hoping that it will just hurry up and end. Many times we find ourselves taking a minimalist position…

Being for your family – a post from Steph Shrager

Ever since I made the decision to follow Jesus, I think the one of the greatest transformations that has happened in my life has been the restoration of relationship with my family. Of course, I’m not perfect at it. I wish I was, but the truth is I’m not there yet. However, I think it…

Change vs. Complacency – part 1

A Penny for your thoughts Change… who likes it? For most it can be annoying. Some are skeptical of it, and many are fearful of it. In fact when it comes to money, “change” often times is put away in a jar and not thought of until absolutely necessary. Now I’m not going to make…

Fusion (College / Young Adult), Upcoming Events

In the past few weeks, I’ve been noticing that our church, as a whole, doesn’t get very excited about congregational worship. It is something that seems to be important to the church. There are two staff members, Aaron and Steph whose entire job is about preparing for worship and worshipping. We have worship every Sunday…

This summer, our focus with Fusion is on the simple question: what does it look like for us to live our lives as citizens of God’s kingdom? Simple Question. Big Answers. “What does it look like for us to be daily followers of Christ?” may be a simple question and honestly, we could take a…

Don’t waste your summer – Brodie Heginbotham

“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” –William Shakespeare (from As You Like It, spoken by Jaques). The world’s a stage We may concede, along with Shakespeare, that this life we live is a play, with its costumes, its lines, its drama, its comedy, and its tragedy. If this…

“This is an Inconvenience” – a post from Daniel Havener

Why I hate rain Let me start this off with a fact. I don’t like rain. Sure, I played in it as a child. Sure, I know that without it plants cannot grow. But I realized my disdain when it rained for two straight days. There was no sunshine, it was cold, and it was…
