Continuing our summer series "One Three Nine," guest speaker Randy Palmer explores Psalm 139:4–5 and what it means to be securely "hemmed in" by God. Looking at Luke 17:21, Randy challenges us to see that God's kingdom isn't found in worldly institutions or power, but is actively dwelling within us and moving in our midst through the Holy Spirit. Even in a broken world, we are invited to stop looking through a dim glass and instead recognize how God's Spirit is speaking to us and working thro...
Pastor Jim Ellis kicks off our summer series on Psalm 139 by focusing on verses 1–3 and the foundational truth that God intimately knows everything about us. While we often hide behind facades out of fear or shame, this passage reminds us that the Lord sees to our very core and loves us still. Our deepest longing is to be fully known and fully loved, and true transformation begins when we stop hiding and step into relationship with the God who refuses to reject us. STAY CONNECTED ...
Guest speaker Pastor Jared Lee returns to BCC to explore David’s cry for help in Psalm 40:1–12, reminding us that spiritual growth rarely happens in a straight line. When we find ourselves stuck in the messy, overwhelming middle of life, true growth begins when we stop striving in our own strength and start waiting on God to rescue us. Even when the journey feels unsteady, we can trust that Jesus walks the line with us, exposing our need for His mercy and transforming our hunger for Him. STAY...
In the finale of our "Plant a Garden" series, Pastor Jim Ellis looks at John 15:15–17 and the ultimate goal of the Gardener: a harvest of fruit born out of true friendship with God. We explore how cultivating an experience-based friendship (philos) with Jesus is the very vehicle He uses to transform our hearts. As the series concludes, we are challenged to examine what keeps us from spending the time necessary to abide in the Vine and enjoy this deep connection. STAY CONNECTED&nb...
Pastor Jim Ellis turns to John 15:12–14 to explore how Jesus prunes our lives so that we can truly fulfill His commandment to love one another. While pruning can be painful, it is the process God uses to shape a community defined by sacrificial, life-laying-down love. Moving from abiding to action, we are invited to actively co-labor with God in the world.

In this message from John 15:10–11, Pastor Jim Ellis explores how Jesus patiently walks with us as we grow—even when our roots feel exposed by life's challenges. We discover that true obedience isn't a burden, but an invitation to follow Christ’s example of agape love, leading us into the fullness of His joy.

Pastor Jim Ellis continues our "Plant a Garden" series by looking at John 15:8–9 and the "hidden" work of spiritual growth. Just as phosphorus strengthens a tree's roots, Jesus feeds and strengthens us as we abide in Him, allowing us to bear the fruit of the Spirit and bring glory to the Father.

In this installment of "Plant a Garden," Pastor Jim Ellis explores the "if" statements of John 15:6–7 and what it truly means to be united with Christ. We look at how Jesus "waters" our lives through His Word and prayer, inviting us to be vulnerable in our requests not to change God’s mind, but to deepen our trust in Him as co-laborers in His kingdom.
