We're taking the first few weeks of 2026 to remind ourselves of who we are as a church family. Being part of a family is about belonging and becoming; about the journey that we're on together, and the shared values that define who we are and shape how we live. We've titled this series of messages, This Is US. So far, we've looked at the values of Biblical Truth, Grace, and Spiritual Growth. Now in week four, we're taking a look at our value of Excellence.I love a good movie quote. And one of my favorites comes from the 1987 classic movie, The Princess Bride. "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means." And that couldn't be more true of the word excellence.I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. Connecting with one another before and after the service is one way we get to do life together. We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule.And, just for fun, let's see who can be the first to tell me this Sunday, what word it was that Vizzini kept using in the movie.

We're taking the first few weeks of 2026 to remind ourselves of who we are as a church family. Because being a family is about more than just hanging out together once or twice a week. Being part of a family is about belonging and becoming; about shared values that define who we are. This week we're unpacking our value of Spiritual Growth.This is week 3 of our series: This Is Us. We live in a very self-centered, individualistic culture. But Jesus talked about the Church as His body - one whole, made up of many parts. Just as your hand or big toe wouldn't function effectively (or... at all!) if it were disconnected from your physical body, there's no option for going it alone - disconnected from other believers - in your journey as a Christ-follower. This is an adventure that we take together.
I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. We would love to connect with you!We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule.

"Have you ever heard of grace?" That's the question a friend of mine received from a frustrated parent. She was working in Christian higher ed, overseeing a community service program - the completion of which was a requirement for students to walk at graduation and receive their diplomas. This particular student had not completed the requirement and had lied about it, and been caught. So, no pomp and circumstance for him - or his disappointed parents. But it begs the question... what is grace? Would grace give him a pass or hold him accountable?We're in week 2 of our first sermon series of 2026: This Is Us. Over the next several weeks, we're going to unpack the values that we believe in and endeavor to live out as a church. This week we're taking a look at grace. Do you know what it is? And what it isn't? In order to live out any value, you have to understand it.
I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. We would love to connect with you!We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone.

We are kicking off 2026 with a brand new series we've titled This Is Us. Over the next 7 weeks, we're going to focus on reminding ourselves of who we are—and who we're becoming—together. Our values as a church family aren't just nice ideas printed on a wall or published on our website; they’re the shared identity we live out as a spiritual family. Each week, we’ll explore a core value that shapes our life together in Christ, from Biblical Truth to Worship. As we begin a new year, this series invites you into a deeper sense of belonging, purpose, and transformation—because spiritual growth doesn’t happen alone. It happens in community, and it happens here.
I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. We would love to connect with you!We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone.

As one year closes and another begins, we’re often tempted to rush ahead with resolutions while ignoring what needs to be settled first. In Before the Clock Strikes Midnight, we’ll explore the spiritual significance of this in-between moment—looking honestly at what we’re carrying, what needs to be released, and what God may be inviting us to step into next. This message isn’t about hype or quick fixes; it’s about alignment, surrender, and choosing a direction that leads to real life before the calendar turns and the pace speeds up again.

This Christmas Eve, join us for a magical, hope-filled celebration as we discover the quiet victory God launched in the most unexpected way—a baby in a manger. Through story, Scripture, and candlelight, we’ll remember that the Light has come, the darkness cannot extinguish it, and that God’s rescue plan still moves through ordinary people like us. Bring the whole family for a moment of wonder, laughter, and worship as we welcome the Light of the World together.

It's week 3 of our December series, The Christmas Conspiracy: Heaven's Secret Plan to Overthrow Darkness. And in case we needed a real-life object lesson in just how dark total darkness is, we were provided with a classic Pacific Northwest opportunity this week. Perhaps you weren't affected, but for thousands of people in western Oregon, Tuesday night's windstorm took out their electricity. You don't really notice how much ambient light is present in your home, until it's not there anymore. And if the power comes back on during the night, even the tiniest glow of an indicator light on a small appliance or digital device can wake you up... because something has changed... light has come.In these weeks leading up to Christmas we're uncovering the radical, redemptive plan of God hidden within the Christmas story; His divine mission to break the power of darkness in our world and reclaim broken hearts and lives - not by force, but by the Light of love. This week, we'll discover that light isn't made to stay in one place... it spills over, spreads out, pushing back the darkness as more and more light bearers shine in the dark.I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. We would love to connect with you!We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone.

Connecticut father of four, Abe Donsky is credited with inventing the first modern electric nightlight in 1965. Fear of the dark is one of the most common childhood fears. But it's not just the kids who are afraid of darkness; many adults - though they may not want to admit it - are also afraid of the dark. Darkness robs us of our strongest and most valuable sense - our ability to see. And when you can't see - whether it's the darkness of the night or the darkness of your circumstances - your mind goes to work filling in those places where your vision is limited - often with imaginary possibilities that can cause deep fear. But with just a bit of light, the fear is banished. We are in week 2 of our December series, The Christmas Conspiracy: Heaven's Secret Plan to Overthrow Darkness. In these weeks leading up to Christmas we're going to uncover the radical, redemptive plan of God hidden within the Christmas story; His divine mission to break the power of darkness in our world and reclaim broken hearts and lives - not by force, but by the Light of love.I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM.

It started about three months ago - and I was (almost) completely in the dark. There were forces plotting and scheming behind my back. Secret meetings were held, and covert communiques were happening. There was even some deception involved. Eventually, ALL of YOU were pulled into the scheming. And I? I had no idea what was going on. It was a carefully crafted conspiracy - of kindness and love - designed to surprise me with blessing and encouragement after 25 years of being a pastor here at Dayspring.A conspiracy is usually a harmful or illegal plot, hatched in secret by two or more people. But it can also refer to any secret course of action taken by a group of people to bring about a given result. Which is what I experienced at the hands of many of you last month. This week, we're beginning a new series we've titled, The Christmas Conspiracy: Heaven's Secret Plan to Overthrow Darkness. In these weeks leading up to Christmas, we're going to uncover the radical, redemptive plan of God hidden within the Christmas story; His divine mission to break the power of darkness in our world and reclaim broken hearts and lives - not by force, but by love.I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM.

It's turkey time! Or, maybe in your household it's ham or prime rib, or maybe enchiladas or pizza. Whatever you eat, wherever you are, whoever you're with, I hope your heart is filled with gratitude. And speaking of gratitude, what are you grateful for this year? The answer to that question is often linked to people we love, things we have, or memories we've made. And we should absolutely be grateful for all of those people, things and memories. But I also think there's more... This week, we'll be wrapping up our series, BLESSED: Living a Life God Blesses. Throughout this series, we've looked at different postures of the heart that invite God's blessing in our lives and reflect His nature through our lives. This week we're looking at the posture of gratitude. It's easy to be grateful when life is good. But how about when loss, pain, or difficulty weigh you down? Gratitude must be grounded in the goodness and faithfulness of God - regardless of changing circumstances. I invite you to join us this Sunday at 11 AM. You'll find us online by clicking the "Join Us Sunday" button on our website or connect with us via our YouTube channel. Or come worship with us in person! Enjoy coffee, cookies and conversation in our Lobby before the service. We would love to connect with you!We do know that 11 AM on Sunday doesn't work for everyone. If that's you, the service will be available on-demand, so you can watch at a time that works better for your schedule.Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I look forward to seeing you on Sunday.
