Joy to the World

What can we learn from Buddy the Elf about Christmas? This week Brandon takes us to the end of the gospel of  Luke and Jesus's resurrection, bringing joy to his disciples and providing us with a living hope.

Spreading Cheer

After Jesus's death, the disciples were distraught. Their hope seemed to be gone. But in Luke 24, we see Jesus back on the earth, encouraging his disciples to not only grow in their faith, but proclaim it to the world. Join us this week as Pastor Brandon shows us what we can learn from this story, as well as how it coincides with the Christmas season.

The Darkest Day

Jesus's death and resurrection lies at the heart of Christianity. But what's so important that we see in the middle of all the suffering? This week Josh highlights some of the things that God was doing under the surface through Jesus's death and how it all came to light in the resurrection.

Can You See Me Now?

In the middle of Jesus's crucifixion, Luke describes the reactions of a few different people. This week Pastor Chad highlights these responses and how we tend to do the same things today, and also what we can learn about this pivotal moment in history.

A New Operating System

When is faith at its best? When is it at its worst? This week Brandon looks at the differences between Jesus's approach to suffering and how Peter dealt with it, and the restoration that is freely given in Christ.

Remember Me

As much as we hate to admit it, we have a problem with our memory. Sure, there are things we can do to drill ideas into heads so that we don't forget, but we have a tendency to let go of a lot more than we retain. At the Last Supper, Jesus told His disciples to remember Him using the bread and wine, and this tradition has been carried down through the church ever since. Why is it important that we remember, and what does this say about Jesus? Join us this week as Pastor Brandon looks at what it means to remember Jesus and how it changes us.

Life And Belief

It's easy to look around and get discouraged by everything that is going on. But what if God was at work in the things that trouble us the most? And how do we become a part of what God is doing? Join us this week as Pastor Brandon shows us the hope that we have in Jesus and the purpose He gives us.

King Jesus

As we return to the book of Luke, Josh takes us through the story of Jesus's triumphal entry into Jerusalem and highlights the claims that Jesus makes about Himself. If He truly is the King over all, what does that mean for you and me?

Celebration Sunday

As we gathered together to testify to what God's doing at AOC, Pastor Brandon looks to the gospel of John to describe another story of life change in Joseph of Arimathea. You also get to hear from Dave and Jennifer Terry share about a few of the ways that God has been working in their lives and their challenge to the church.

Advancing God‘s Good Purpose

What do you love? It's a big question that drives how you spend your time and resources. Does what you love, in turn, love you back? In 2 Corinthians God says that the "love of Christ" controls the Christian life, and that love is sacrificial, more than we could ever give. Join us this week as Pastor BJ unpacks how we live for God's glory with our lives.
