The devil tells you that experience will broaden your horizons, but the reality is that sin will set up terrible battles in your soul...Summary

Pastor Colin dives into the story of the tower of Babel and shows us how God cuts back sin in our world while also creating room for His grace.

Salvation | Episode 3

Host: Open the Bible Guests: Sam Wenner and Isaiah Smith

The warnings of judgment in the Bible are not the angry outbursts of a vindictive God...Summary

Welcome to week 3 of our "HIKE Through the Bible!" 🥾 Today, Pastor Colin dives into a story you may already know well—the story of Noah, the ark, and the flood.

The story of Noah is well-known, but did you know that this judgment is not merely a picture of God's wrath but also His immense kindness and grace?

Plus, you'll hear how God has provided a way for us to be saved from the final judgment, through a new ark—Jesus Christ.

Curse | Episode 2

Host: Open the Bible Guests: Alex Kocis and Paul Komis

Hope began on the day that Adam and Eve sinned, and it began with a curse...Summary

Today marks week 2 of our journey through the Bible story, and we are only just getting started! Almost everyone knows the story of how sin entered our world—the first man and woman lived a blessed life in the presence of God in the Garden of Eden, until Satan tempted them into sin, and paradise was lost. But the story doesn't end there.

Join Pastor Colin and his guests, Alex Kocis and Paul Komis, as they open a new chapter in the Bible story.

Open your Bible to Genesis 3 and discover how our hope began with a curse …
