Genesis 32:1-23: Two Camps, Two Identities
As Jacob learns that his brother Esau is coming to meet him as he makes his way back to the land, he panics and divides his camp into two out of fear. He also, however, does turn to the Lord. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shares what we can learn from Jacob’s reaction and how we can more fully commit to following Christ’s direction.
Genesis 31: Under the Lord’s Direction
As Jacob gets ready to return to his father’s land, he recognizes he needs the Lord to guide him. In this week’s message, Pastor Kyle Hall explains how we also need to trust the Lord to guide us in everything we do.
Romans 6:1-11: Alive to God
Each Easter, we celebrate Christ rising from the dead. How often do we think through the full implication of the Resurrection on our lives now, however? In this Easter Sunday message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains just what both the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ mean to the believer now.
Genesis 30:24-43: Spotted, Speckled, and Streaked
As we continue in the story of Jacob, we see him trying to help God accomplish what He promised in dealing with Laban’s scheming. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shares how we often do the same.
Genesis 29:31-30:24: Three’s a Crowd
In last week’s message, we saw how Jacob not waiting for God to provide a spouse led to him having two wives, one of whom was not his choosing. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley delves into the fallout from that in the lives of Leah, Rachel, and Jacob, exposing how we often rely on things other than Christ to fulfill us.
Genesis 29:1-30: The Deceiver Deceived

Genesis 28:10-22: The Stairway to Heaven
As Jacob flees from Esau, he lays down for a night’s rest and is visited by God in a dream. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shares what we can learn from this encounter and the fact that it is more important to seek the One Who blesses than the blessing.
Genesis 26:34-28:9: Connivers and Schemers
Many people in this world manipulate things behind the scenes to get what they want. This is nothing new, as this week’s passage from Genesis about Rachel and Jacob stealing the blessing Isaac intended for Esau will show. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley shows how the main characters of this story, including Isaac, tried to scheme to get things their way and how we often do the same.
Genesis 25:27-34: The Glory of Christ in Dysfunctional Families
After starting out so strong, Isaac and Rebekah’s life and family turn away from God and make idols of each other.

In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains the importance of surrendering our lives and families fully to Christ.
Genesis 25: 19-26: Sovereign Grace
As Christians, we acknowledge that the Lord is sovereign, but what does that mean, and how far does His sovereignty extend. In this week’s message, Pastor Scott Gourley explains how God is sovereign in all tings.
