Martin Luther once said, "God writes the gospel not in the Bible alone, but on trees, and clouds and stars." And, in this case, on Twizzlers and beef jerky. That's what the Military Support Group is all about.  

The troops work in conditions that are unimaginable to most of us. Their hours are long and grueling and their comforts are few. They place their lives in danger on our behalf.

We send boxes of supplies, candy and junk food that may seem trivial to us, but to the soldiers they represent much more...

  • Our support and concern for their safety and well-being
  • Our thanks for serving our country.

CANNONBALL

When making the perfect cannonball, there is one goal in mind … the bigger the splash and the more waves you make, the better! God is calling us to make cannonballs in our personal lives as well. He wants us to go “all in” and use everything we’ve got—from our influence to our finances—to make a major impact on this world.

WHEN IN ROME

More than two thousand years ago, the apostle Paul challenged the thinking of everyone in the civilized world when he wrote a letter to a small church in Rome. He addressed everyone from Caesar and religious leaders to commoners and slaves—revealing to them the truth in God's Word amidst the dust and ruins. This powerful series explores what it means to live faithfully and boldly in our modern-day culture. You'll discover that the Book of Romans is just as relevant today.
