UPCOMING EVENTS
Sunday, September 6
Mud Creek Campus
On the Sunday before the 25th anniversary of September 11, we remember a day that broke the world open, and a small town in Newfoundland that responded to strangers falling from the sky with nothing but open doors. Gander didn't have answers for what happened, they just had room, and they made it. Twenty-five years later, we still live in the aftermath, and we're still asking what it looks like to welcome the stranger when the world feels frightening. This is a Sunday to grieve, to remember, and to be reminded that hospitality can be its own kind of holy resistance.
Promise Road Campus
After returning from sabbatical, Pastor Danny opens Psalm 119 to reflect on the kind of wisdom that helps us stay grounded and faithful in every season of life. Through the psalmist’s prayer, we are reminded that spiritual growth is less about rigid certainty and more about cultivating hearts that remain open to God, grounded in love, and committed to the way of justice and grace. This message explores how God continues to teach us lessons for living that help us stay centered, faithful, and hopeful for the journey ahead.
