Why Small Group Involvement Matters | Vitals

We weren’t created to follow Jesus alone.

In this message, Pastor Eric Kuykendall teaches why small group environments are essential for church life—and how they foster connection, maturity, and mission. Whether you’re part of the 59% already involved in a group or the 39% still on the sidelines, this message encourages you to take your next step.

You’ll see how real community takes effort, how technology and fear can keep us isolated, and why transparency is worth it. Jesus prayed for unity—not just for His disciples, but for us—and small groups are one of the best ways to live out that prayer.

Why Family Discipleship Matters | Vitals

How can parents become the primary spiritual leaders in their kids’ lives—and why is it so important?

In this powerful message, Pastor Eric Kuykendall, PhD, shares real data from a church-wide survey and uncovers a surprising gap: While most of us are reading the Bible and praying daily, only a third of families are doing these things together. What does that mean for your family? What’s at stake if we don’t engage spiritually at home?

Whether you’re a dad, mom, grandparent, or mentor, this sermon will equip and encourage you to step into your God-given role. Learn how Scripture and prayer are your greatest weapons in the spiritual war for your children’s hearts—and why YOU were handpicked by God to lead them.

Is Your Faith Healthy? | Vitals

What do a car inspection, an Apple Watch, and a report card have in common? They all provide an evaluation. Car inspections check for safety and function, Apple Watches track fitness and health, and report cards show academic progress. Evaluations like these matter—but what about evaluating our spiritual health?

Earlier this year, nearly 400 of us completed a Spiritual Health Survey. Starting this Sunday, we’ll begin walking through what we learned—about ourselves and about our church. And we’ll do it with the same posture David expressed in Psalm 139: “Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”
