Hope out of Darkness

In this sermon, Austin W. Duncan explores the enduring power of hope and light through the lens of Isaiah 9, reflecting on God's promises to a people walking in darkness. Drawing parallels between the first light on Cadillac Mountain and the transformative hope of Christ's arrival, he unpacks the names of Jesus—Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace—to illustrate how God steps into our darkest moments. With historical context, personal application, and an invitation to trust in God's unchanging faithfulness, this message calls us to embrace the light that breaks through all darkness, culminating in the celebration of communion as a reminder of Christ's ultimate sacrifice and victory.

In The Waiting

This is the heartbeat of the Church - action into serving others the other 167 hours of the week that you're not here, be that at work, or at home. As we strive to be more like Christ day after day, look at who He told us to invite to the table. Build relationships, invest your time into others that may not be able to pay you back, and allow for God to use you, your skills, your talents, your job, your resources - to grow the Kingdom, and to spread the Gospel to all nations.
