  • Thinking About Getting Married?


    Our counseling team provides pre-marital counseling using the SYMBIS (Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts) Assessment. This is a comprehensive, research-based online tool designed for engaged and newlywed couples to strengthen their relationship foundation. Each partner independently completes a 30—minute online questionnaire (cost is $35 per couple). The answers generate a detailed report of 15 pages outlining personal and relational dynamics. One of our counselors (a certified SYMBIS facilitator) will guide you through three or four discussions evaluating personality, finances, communication, and intimacy to identify strengths and areas for growth and provide actionable strategies to improve your relationship.

  • Practicing The Way

    STARTING AUG 25 - NOV 10
    6:00 - 7:30 | Fireside Chapel

    Contrary to what many assume, Jesus did not invite people to convert to Christianity. He didn't even call people to become Christians. He invited people to apprentice under him into a whole new way of living. To be transformed.
    A New York Times bestseller and winner of the ECPA 2025 Christian Book of the Year, this book by John Mark Comer offers a portrait of following Jesus that is profound and compelling as it is simple.
    The central theme is that we are constantly being formed by the world around us --- and that to be formed by Jesus requires becoming his apprentice, living by what the first Christians called a "Rule of Life": a set of practices and relational rhythms that slow us down and open space in our daily lives for God to transform us from the inside out.
    The book opens by answering the question "What is a disciple?" Following Dallas Willard's lead, Comer uses the word "apprentice" to capture what a disciple was in Jesus' day and summarizes the three main goals of discipleship. Those three goals give the book its subtitle: Be with Jesus. Become like him. Do as he did.

  • Tame Your Thoughts

    STARTING JAN 12 - APR 13, 2027
    6:00pm - 8:00pm | Fireside Chapel

    When was the last time you awakened to a swirl of out-of-control thoughts? Anxiety, guilt, grief, or fear of rejection? There is help.

    We can manage our lives by managing our thoughts. Neuroscience backs this promise. More importantly, so does the Bible. A better life by better thoughts? The idea is embedded in Scripture.

    “Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” (Romans 12:2 ESV)

    In Tame Your Thoughts, bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado explores these key thought management tools to:

    Take thoughts captive Test each message against the truth of scripture Interrupt poisonous thought threads Think and act like Jesus God loves us too much to let us lead a life marked by poor thinking. He made our brains; he can retrain our brains. “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” 2 (Timothy 1:7 NKJV)

    Tame your thoughts and transform your life.
