Do you ever feel like you’re living life in a box? It can be easy to live life that way because it can feel comfortable and safe. But, if we don’t stop living by the rules and checklists we’ve created for ourselves, then we risk missing out on the whole point of life.

Listen in as Pastor Jill McCloghry shares how to not let religion steal your focus away from a relationship with the God of Heaven and Earth.

We deal with a lot of demands in life from many different angles. And our heart is there to supply what we need to meet those demands.

Listen in as Pastor Matt McCloghry wraps up our series “Manager” and shares why the condition of our heart is the key to the condition of our life.

Jesus spent His entire life serving others with love. And not just a few specific people who He felt deserved His love — He selflessly served every single person He came across.

Listen in as Pastor Chris Aussem shares a word about living a life focused on serving others.

We’ve learned through our series, “Manager,” that God expects us to be good stewards of the resources He’s gifted us with. But, He also expects us to grow the things He’s allowed us to have so that they can be a blessing to us and the people around us. And one day, He’s going to sit down with us and ask us how we did. Listen in as Ps Matt McCloghry shares 7 questions wise and faithful managers should be asking themselves when it comes to growing the resources God has provided them with.

As appointed managers of God’s Kingdom, we must remain vigilant and be ready to take action on whatever God calls us to.

Listen in as Pastor Matt McCloghry shares three things wise Kingdom managers must do in order to encounter God and fulfill His plan for our lives.

We learned in Part 1 of our new series, ‘Manager,’ that God owns it all and he has entrusted us to be good managers of the resources He has given us. In Part 2, Ps Matt McCloghry takes a closer look at the portion of those resources God wants us to reserve for Him — the first 10 percent. God calls us to put Him first in every area our lives. When we give Him the best parts of our lives, we will never be worse off. Giving God our best isn’t just something we have to do, it’s something we get to do.

When it comes to experiencing growth in life, it always starts with each of us individually. If goals are not set and we aim at nothing, we will hit it every time. Listen in as Ps Matt brings a message at our staff meeting on being consistent in challenging ourselves to grow and reach our God-given potential.

The Bible focuses quite a bit on the topic of stewardship. God calls us to a greater level of responsibility to steward and carry His message out into the world.

In order to do that, we must understand the bigger picture that God owns and controls everything. Listen in as Pastor Matt kicks off a brand-new series on Godly stewardship entitled “Manager.”

I think we can all agree that there’s something special about reading a letter written just for us, especially in today’s day and age with technology constantly fighting for our attention.

Listen in as Pastor Chris shares a message on the importance of putting down our smart phones to set aside time to diligently study His word.

We live in a world today that’s wrestling with the truth and we need to be the type of church that rises up and presents the truth. There’s true power in the name of Jesus and in His word.

Water is vital for all known forms of life. Without it, no living thing could survive. The same can be said for the spiritual water we receive from Christ — without it, we’d surely be lost. Thankfully, God will always be there to give us water through His never-ending grace. When we stick close to Him and His well (Church), nothing can separate us from His love. Listen in as Pastor Jill McCloghry continues our “Planted & Flourishing” series with a powerful message on the importance of consistently drinking the water from God’s life-giving well. “Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” - John 4: 13-14 ESV

Join us as we continue our series “MUCH LOVE” at Colonial. We are blessed this Sunday as we had the honor of John & Helen Burns from Relate Church in Vancouver Canada speak directly on the topic of love & healthy relationships.

Our words hold the power of life or death through our day to day. Listen in as Ps. Chris speaks on the importance of our words and being generous with encouragement.

It isn’t a matter of “if” we’ll go through trials but “when” we will go through trials. But we have hope in our moment of trials because Jesus is bigger than any circumstance we face. Join us as we begin to see what God says about our trials.

Wildman excites to champion and empower the Men of our church and city to be all God has called them to be. 

Join us as we begin a brand new series called MUCH LOVE in our church about healthy relationships.

Listen in as we gather around the topic of singleness and dating. Join us as we learn to gain applicable ways to walk through both seasons with Jesus at the center. Q&A portion is with special guests: Ps. Bob Appleby, Dawne Appleby and Ps. Mallory Aussem.

There are times when the dreams of our hearts and the hopes for our lives seem to die. Discover God's perspective on our dreams and how He can breathe life into them - He is the Dream Weaver.

Join us this week as Pastor Matt concludes his series "Out Of Order" with a message on the power of living according to our God-given convictions.

Listen in as we take a look at practical way to maintain a healthy heart positioned toward God. A heart leaning into God will result in a flourishing and fulfilling life!

Sometimes we have all the right parts in our life or the right people - the issue is the order we have set them in. Sometimes its just out of order. Join us this week as Ps Matt begins a new series called OUT OF ORDER at Colonial.

We had an amazing Sunday with Guest speaker & friend of our house Pastor Josh Kimes from Hillsong NYC.

As we begin a new year full of expectations for God to give us favor, increase & breakthrough we must also remember the God-Give principle of REST in our lives.
