Pastor Brad Holmes continues our God Is series by unpacking God as Peace through the story of Gideon in Judges 6. God reveals himself to Gideon in the midst of Gideon’s fear and weakness. Gideon recognizes God as the one who brings peace. We see how God is not only the God of peace, but through Philippians 4:5b-7, Paul makes it clear that God wants to be the source of peace for our lives. We’re challenged to run to God for peace, instead of the false promises of peace offered by the world.

Pastor Aaron Buer continues our God Is series by looking at Acts 17, where Paul proclaims the reality of the one true God. We discover that God is entirely self-sufficient, lacking nothing, and has created humanity to find life and purpose in knowing and worshiping him. We are challenged that while God needs nothing, he wants us and desires us to know him. We are encouraged to reorient our lives around worshiping God rather than things that do not satisfy us. We are invited to experience the abundant life that comes from rightly worshiping the generous, self-existent God who needs nothing from us yet graciously invites us into a relationship with himself.

Pastor Aaron Buer continues our God Is series by exploring the profound revelation of God's character in Exodus 34. God declares himself compassionate, gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, yet uncompromising in his justice toward sin. We witness the beautiful tension of God's love and wrath displayed perfectly in Jesus Christ, who bore the punishment for our sins on the cross so that we might experience forgiveness and restoration. We are challenged to humbly receive God's grace through repentance and faith in Christ while striving to reflect his compassionate heart in our thoughts, words, and deeds.
