Cato’s Grape Must Cakes

Ever seen grapes grow without being attached to a vine? Doubt it. Same goes for Christians, i.e. the only chance of having a fruitful life is by staying connected to Jesus.

The Gospel

We take a short break from our summer message series, Heaven’s Kitchen, and instead feast on the Good News (a meal unto itself, specially prepared by the head chef, God), with a message from guest speaker and new Hastings resident, Pastor Bill Robertson.

Milk & Honey Custard

Pastor Mark explains why God used milk & honey to describe prime real estate as part of our summer message series, Heaven's Kitchen.

Grilled Tilapia

Bible people ate more fish than meat. Not for heart health, weight loss, or because it was so tasty (it is), but because it was cheap and available. And Jesus chose fish because he knows us and speaks our language.

Babylonian Unwinding Stew

Imagine going back to slavery just to get veggies. The Israelites were leaning that way. And we’re already making similar trade-offs.

Za'atar

Stories of biblical spices and their relevance to the power of confession, faith, and focus.

Because…Monsters Are Real

When Christ returns, sin, death, and Satan (i.e. our “monsters”) will be vanquished. And only a resurrected, living Jesus can return. God wins.

Because…Life is Beautiful

Life is a beautiful gift from God. And Jesus’ promise of an abundant life isn’t just for now. It’s forever–an eternal life where the beauty never ends.

Because…Sometimes It Storms

There are times in life when we are filled with worry and doubt. The risen Jesus can calm our anxiety (and the storm).

Because…Someone Will Listen

Because of the Resurrection, Jesus is risen and alive. We may not see him physically, but we can talk to him 24/7–and he always listens.
