Join us every Sunday during December as we prepare our hearts to experience our Everpresent God.
FROM PAYCHECK TO PURPOSE
Do you find yourself in a season of transition? Are you discontent in your workplace? Are you struggling to understand your purpose and calling in life? No matter what season or career you find yourself in, this sermon series is for you. This four-week series is all about finding your purpose, understanding God’s original design for work, and the need for us to define our work in order to live with clarity, meaning, and focus. Join us as we discover our primary calling in life.
AUDIENCE OF ONE
Who or what do you live for? Do you live for the approval of others? Do you merely live for yourself and your own happiness? We are often consumed by the many voices in our culture that tell us to live for this or that, but what does God say about it all? How do we silence the voices and live for an audience of One? How do we live for God’s approval alone? In this 8-week series, we will be examining the life of David and the way he lived his life for an audience of One. Join us as we learn how to live empowered lives for God’s glory!
MOMENTS
Life is a collection of moments – defining moments, ordinary moments, moments of disruption, moments of clarity, and every moment in between. Each of these moments create a life. The question is what does God want to do with these moments? How does He want us to respond to the moments we face in life? Join us for this 7-week series called Moments, as we explore these different moments and how God can define each and every moment for His ultimate glory.
LOVE, LUST, & LONELINESS
In a world consumed by sex, what does the Bible have to say? This is an important question that the church has ignored for far too long. During this important 7-week series, we will talk about God’s design for sex, the joys and dangers of sex, how to overcome lust, and how to pursue God’s best for your life in whatever season you find yourself in.
JESUS IS HOPE
In a world plagued by hopelessness, we desire as a church to point you to an unshakeable hope. Jesus alone provides hope for the anxious, for the guilty, for the needy, for the broken for the weary, and for the undeserving. No matter where you find yourself in life, hope is available to you. Join us during this series as we declare that JESUS IS HOPE.
PROJECT 247
We have a dream to see waves of adults, students, and children come to faith in Jesus Christ through the ministry of Anthem Church. This dream comes from Acts 2:47, “And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.” With God’s help, we are believing that this same type of God-honoring revival will happen among us for the glory of God.
DWELL
Inside every heart is a desire to find a place that feels like home. We desire to feel safe, secure, steady, loved, cared for, and at home. If you’re longing for this kind of peace, our God offers a beautiful invitation to each one of us to make our home in Him. During our new series, Dwell, we will look into the lives of those in Scripture who understood the transformational power of dwelling in the presence of God both now and forever. Join us, as we seek to live in His presence daily.
THERE IS A LIGHT
Are you walking through a season of darkness? Are you desperate to see a breakthrough of light? The coming of Christmas points to breakthrough. The breakthrough of light in the midst of darkness. Our God broke through the darkness when He said, “Let there be light.” Our God broke through the darkness when He sent Jesus to the earth. And, our God is willing and ready to break through your darkness and give you the light of life. You are personally invited to join us during our Christmas series, There Is a Light. When the circumstances around you feel too dark to navigate, we want you to know: There is a light that shines in the darkness, and His name is Jesus.
IMMEASURABLY MORE
More. A word that often describes that insatiable desire in the depths of every human heart that’s searching for something to satisfy. Often, though, the more we seek, the more we find that nothing truly satisfies…until we find the One who offers Immeasurably More. More than all we could ask. More than all we could imagine. More than our past. More than our mistakes. Jesus offers immeasurably more. Join us as we dive into the book of Ephesians in our new series, Immeasurably More.
WHAT IF EVERYONE
What if everyone lived out their faith in an authentic way? How would the world change? How would the church change? How would our relationships change? Through the power of the Spirit, we could see the world change around us by putting our faith into action. Join us over the next five weeks as we’re challenged with the thought, “What If Everyone…”
GOD’S DREAM FOR THE FAMILY
What is God’s dream for the family? In today’s world full of mixed messages, our families desperately need biblical direction, clarity, and encouragement surrounding God’s vision for the family. No matter your life stage — married, single, parent, grandparent, child, or empty nester — God has a specific plan and purpose for you in His family. Join us this weekend as we’ll explore God’s original plan for the family and how you can play an integral part in making His dream a reality.
LIVING ON EMPTY
Do you feel chronically hurried, chronically stressed, and chronically drained? Have you caught yourself saying: “I just can’t catch up. I can’t get it all done. I’m overloaded”? So many of us are feeling overwhelmed by activities, choices, work, family, and more, causing an ongoing burden on ourselves and our relationships. In this series, Living on Empty, you’ll learn practical ways to find replenishment in every area of your life. Join us as we discover the rhythms of life that God intends for you and for me.

A TALE OF TWO SONS
What if I told you that it doesn’t matter how good you’ve been or how bad you’ve been – that good and bad are not the most important words in the kingdom? Instead, what if I told you about grace and how God has made a way for grace to overcome all your good and bad and give you a chance at a new beginning?

You will find a God of promise who is faithful in the midst of our failures. You will find a God of grace, ready to extend His kindness to ever-wandering hearts.

THE THRILL OF HOPE
Have you felt your hope dwindling? The circumstances of life have a way of stealing the thrill of hope and leaving us feeling jaded and hopeless. What if this wasn’t the way God intended for us to live? What if God intends for us to experience the stabilizing, thrill of hope through every circumstance of life? In this five-week, Christmas series, The Thrill of Hope, we will journey through Matthew 1 & 2, as we experience the power of the hope found through Jesus Christ alone. Remember, hope has a name, and that name is Jesus.

DON’T PANIC, TAKE HEART 2020
If you can feel your blood pressure rising, your anxiety climbing sharply, and your hope plummeting every time the topic of politics comes up, you are not alone. The Good News is that because of Christ you don’t have to panic. During our series, Don’t Panic: Take Heart 2020, we will choose an eternal perspective, a kingdom focus, and an other-worldly allegiance. We will fight against division and for unity. We will place our hope in the unshakable Kingdom of God. No matter who you are: red or blue, elephant or donkey – you can experience victory no matter who is elected in November.
FEAR IS A LIAR
The fear in our world right now feels tangible. Have you been affected? It’s paralyzing, discouraging, disorienting, and defeating. But, what if I told you that you have the power to defeat the fear that feels as if it is defeating you? During our new series, Fear Is a Liar, we will cut through the fog of fear with the powerful truth of God’s Word. Join us as we expose fear with the light of truth.
LOVE ACTS
How will the world know who and Whose we are? By our love. But, love is more than a word or a way of thinking. Love is an action. Love without action is superficial, and action without love is trivial. The last thing we want is to be “all talk, no action.” Join us for this 5-week series, Love Acts, where we’ll be challenged to put action behind our words.
JESUS IS
Who is Jesus? That’s a question we all have to answer. Myth, man, or God? And, how does His life affect you ? Join us for a life-altering four-week series, as we explore who JESUS IS , and what that means for you.
THIS IS WAR
The world is at war. Do you feel it? What if I told you that not one member of your family will be spared from this fight? This is the fight against sin and against the spiritual forces of the unseen world. Are you aware of the battle? Are you equipped for the fight? It’s time to prepare. THIS IS WAR.
