What Is the Church?
by Johnson Bowie
From the beginning, the Church has been a movement built around the message that Jesus died and rose again as the Savior for all sinners.

Today, we gather to worship Jesus, be together in community, learn to walk in His ways, and go out to share the gospel with the world. Tune in to learn three lessons from the early Church that apply to our overall mission even now!

Fathers, Brothers, & Sons
by Johnson Bowie
The presence of a father makes a difference, and the enemy knows that. That’s why there’s been an all-out attack on men since the very beginning. With abuse, neglect, and abandonment plaguing our generation, there is a fatherlessness epidemic that has left many wounded and discouraged. But there is hope and redemption that Jesus has made available for our dads, sons, brothers, and women, too! Tune in to this Father’s Day message for the answer.

The Most Important Meeting Ever
by Johnson Bowie
What happened at the most important meeting ever? When the apostles of the early Church gathered to talk about salvation, the gospel and even discipleship…the very foundations of the Church that we know today were established. The decisions they made helped Jews and gentiles alike shift from religion and law to salvation and purification by faith. Watch with us as we look back on the debates and decisions that shape our walk with Jesus even now.

by Johnson Bowie
Life is full of hellos and goodbyes. Hellos are often joyful because they lead to new beginnings, but goodbyes tend to leave us feeling the loss.

Join us as we learn what to do and what not to do so that, rather than be led to death and destruction, we can experience the full lives Christ came to give us.

A United Church
by Johnson Bowie
Like Jesus’ disciples, we are a people God has SENT, or commissioned and equipped, to share the Good News with the people around us. We are the Church, a movement of people called to operate in the same power that Jesus did—to be His witnesses wherever we go. But the people who were a part of the early church were only empowered because they were first committed to walking together. God blesses unity! So, why does it matter and how do we become and stay united? Tune in to hear from our senior and campus pastors on how Victory operates under one mission with multiple voices!
