Passover: A time for freedom and redemption
Spring has arrived, and one of the most significant biblical feasts – Passover – is not far behind. This year, Passover begins April 12, and it is more than just a historical event. It is a call to freedom, a reminder of redemption and an invitation to new life in Christ. When we think about Passover, our minds often go to the story of Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt. But before their deliverance, something heartbreaking happened.

Pastor’s Corner: Love your neighbor as yourself
The greatest commandment, according to Jesus (Matthew 22:37), is to love God with all your heart, soul and mind. Like it is the second, “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Matthew 22:39).

Pastor’s Corner: Finding hope and renewal in the New Year
As we approach the start of a new year, we cannot ignore the difficulties and setbacks that have shaped our lives over the previous few years. From the global pandemic to political and economic instability, our world has encountered unforeseen challenges. It makes sense that we might feel discouraged and overburdened during these difficult times. But I believe by reading God’s Word, and particularly by learning the encouraging tale of Jabez, we can find hope even in the worst of times.
Pastor’s Corner: A call to embrace love and unity
The Lord moved our family to Dixon in 2021, and I quickly learned about the rich Christian heritage that has influenced not only the community we live in but our entire country. Much like the rich soil of our farmlands, ripe for planting and harvest, Dixon has been a fertile ground where seeds of faith are sown. In the past, the Lord has not only nurtured these seeds to flourish but has also spread their bounty across the nation.
