Marked by the annual release of the Pumpkin Spice Latte, the holidays are officially here…at least for me anyway. This is my favorite time of the year. The best food, dinners, desserts, parties, warm clothes, fireplaces – the list goes on. Sometimes we forget that God created us with a capacity and desire for FUN. This looks different for everyone, … Read More

Have you ever hit a nasty pothole with your car by accident? You did not see it coming or did not have time to swerve around it, and you ended up hitting it dead on. The whole car catch’s air and, as result, there is a loud boom sound upon impact. This recently happened to my wife, Katia, while she was driving on the freeway. Thankfully she … Read More
You Will Be Like a Watered Garden – Caleb Klinge
When we first moved into our house here in Novato in 2003, we inherited at least 8 mature fruit trees. Our favorite trees are the two Golden Delicious apples trees in our front yard. Aside from annual pruning, we’ve never really done much to them. They’ve just been fruitful, year after year, producing lots of apples that are, well, delicious. … Read More
Bring On The Kids! – Dustin Box
As I reflect on the Kids and Family Worship Night this last Sunday night, I keep thinking about that moment when the band had finished practice and people were just connecting before the service started. The room was filled with the sound of children laughing, screaming, and playing. Usually it wouldn’t be so loud because they would be in their … Read More

Chosen – John Bidaurreta
Have you ever been picked last for something? At a point in which you feel that you weren’t even chosen at all? A good example would be two team captains picking teams on the playground and you’re the last one standing, and they don’t even call your name; you just end up walking silently over to their team. Or everybody … Read More
Are you full of it? – Dustin Box
Acts 3 has one of my favorite stories in it. You know the one where Peter and John are on their way to the temple and a cripple asks them for money. Peter makes the statement, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have.” (Acts 3:6 NLT) We all know how it … Read More
Sharpened – Rachel Klinge
A long time ago, the old sitcom “Cheers” theme song struck a chord in the hearts of many Americans. You can probably recall the lyrics that went like this, “Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came; You want to be where you can see, Our troubles are all the same; You … Read More
Who Are You? – Dustin Box
Identity. It’s a subject that fills the majority young people’s thoughts most of the time. I remember it filling mine. I heard many messages about living out of my identity. I’ve preached those messages. Yet often, people don’t stop to consider whether they have this question settled in their heart. If you ask someone who they are, it’s likely you’ll … Read More
