KNOWN - Designed For Purpose
In this message from our Known series, Designed for Purpose, we explore the truth that God created each of us on purpose and for a purpose. While purpose is given by God, it can be easily distracted by regret, fear, and comparison if we are not...
KNOWN - Made Intentionally
This message in the series Known continues the journey of understanding who we are by looking beyond comparison, insecurity, and the pressure to measure ourselves against others. It explores the truth that your life is not random or accidental,...
KNOWN - A New Series

Easter at ALC - No Match!

The Journey: Don't Travel Alone
In this message from The Journey, we look at how Jesus never traveled alone—and how we’re not meant to either. As He moved through towns and cities, Jesus saw the crowds with compassion, called a group of ordinary people to walk closely with Hi...
The Journey: From The Water To The Wilderness
Life is rarely a straight line; it’s a journey filled with unexpected turns, mountain-top views, and dry, lonely stretches. We all know what it’s like to have a "great day" followed immediately by a week where everything seems to go wrong.<...
How Did I Get Here?
Life has a way of bringing us to moments where we stop and ask, “How did I get here?” Sometimes it’s the result of our own choices, sometimes the actions of others, and sometimes circumstances we never saw coming. In one of the lowest mo...
ENCOUNTER - Calling
Have you ever noticed that every time someone encounters God in Scripture, their life is never the same? Moses met God at a burning bush and was sent to Pharaoh. Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up and was commissioned to speak. Paul encount...
ENCOUNTER - His Refuge
If God is light, why does the Bible talk about His shadow? In Scripture, God's shadow isn't darkness - it's evidence of His nearness. A shadow only forms when something is close. Throughout the Psalms, we see that the shadow of the Almighty is ...
ENCOUNTER - His Word
What if encountering God isn’t about chasing a feeling—but about opening His Word? God is still speaking, and Scripture isn’t just something we read; it’s a place where we meet the living God. In this message, we explore how engaging with His W...

ENCOUNTER - Grace & Mercy

In Mark 5, we see that life without Jesus leaves us living among the tombs—dead, bound, and unable to free ourselves. But when we encounter Jesus, He steps into our darkest places, breaks the chains we could never break, and brings real freedom...
ENCOUNTER - Worship
What if worship isn’t just part of the service, but the place where we truly encounter God? Pastor Devin continues his Encounter series, exploring moments in Scripture where worship releases God’s presence and transforms lives. Learn how to mov...
ENCOUNTER - God
What does it really mean to encounter God? The Bible shows us again and again that God is not distant or unreachable—He desires to meet with His people in real and life-changing ways. As we begin a new year with “Encounter” as our...
Ruth's Recovery
Often when people face loss and sorrow, other people try to comfort them with a reason why. But death doesn’t make sense. The story of Ruth is a Job-like story about recovery from terrible loss. Ruth is an example of someone who did not try to ...
Entering God's Place Of Rest
Coming to the end of another holiday season, who couldn’t use some needed rest! We all need some end of the year REFLECTION as well as some new year DIRECTION in our walk with Christ. Join us as Pastor Clayt shares what the Holy Spirit is impre...
