March 19, 2023 - Questions Lead to Abundant Life

Pastor Dana explores our times of crisis and how they can lead to abundant life.

Just as a caterpillar undergoes a metamorphosis and emerges as a butterfly, so too do we go through a transformation into the people God has created us to be. But change can be scary and painful.

January 22, 2023 - The Comparison Trap

How often are we jealous of someone who has more than we have?
