  • Generosity: How To Live Generously Pt 1 (Ken LaMont) E5
    Mar 2 2026

    In week 5 of our Generosity series, we explore the practical side of biblical giving. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 9, this message addresses the who, when, where, and what of generosity. Learn why giving is a heart issue before it's a financial one, discover the biblical principle of first fruits and tithing, and understand where your giving should go—your church, kingdom expansion, and the poor. Whether you're new to giving or have been tithing for years, this sermon challenges everyone to take the next step in their journey of generosity, trusting that God will provide as we honor Him with our resources.

  • Generosity: Eternal Investment (Ken LaMont) E4
    Feb 22 2026

    In week four of our Generosity series, Pastor Ken explores Jesus' teaching from the Sermon on the Mount about making eternal investments. Drawing from Matthew 6:19-24, he challenges listeners to shift from an earthly to a kingdom perspective on finances. The message examines three key choices: two investments (earthly vs. heavenly treasures), two perspectives (temporal vs. eternal), and two masters (God vs. money). Through powerful illustrations—including the story of missionary Jim Elliot and businessman Stanley Tam—the sermon emphasizes that while we can't take our possessions to heaven, we can send them ahead through kingdom investments. The central question: Are you living for the dot (this life) or the line (eternity)? A compelling call to use God-given resources to "empty hell and fill heaven."

  • Generosity: Ownership (Devan Bumstead) E3
    Feb 15 2026

    In this message on generosity, we explore the tension between the American Dream's emphasis on ownership and the Kingdom of God's call to stewardship. Through a journey from Genesis to the Gospels, we discover that God owns it all: our homes, jobs, resources, even our very breath. We're not owners but stewards—caretakers of what belongs to God. This shift in perspective isn't about restriction but freedom, as we learn to hold things loosely and find our security not in possessions but in belonging to the Father. The sermon culminates with the powerful story of the woman who broke her alabaster jar, pouring out her most valuable possession on Jesus—a beautiful picture of radical surrender and the proper response to the gospel.
