Thanksgiving has come and gone, and Christmas is right around the corner. We know this time of year is filled with a lot of joy and time with family, but we also understand it can be a difficult time for some. But we are excited to share how we, as a church family, were able to bless and serve those in need through Thanksgiving Outreach this year. This outreach is just one part of a greater initiative to address food…
We just had an incredible Next Gen Weekend and it was amazing to witness all that God is doing in the lives of young people. This is one of my favorite weekends every year. My passion for the next generation started when I was 16 when my pastor let me preach for the first time. Then just a few short years later, I became a senior pastor at 21. So I fully believe you don’t have to wait to be…
Milestone Family, you did it again! Many of you gave up your time and talents to make a difference in the lives of people this Serve Day. It’s always amazing seeing you go out into the community with red shirts, ready to serve however you can. It makes me so proud to be your pastor. Part of the reason we do events like Serve Day comes from a vision I had years ago to be a church where if we…

God doesn’t intend for us to live life alone. He wants us to be part of spiritual family because this is one way that we experience His love. Check out Pat and Bonnie’s story to see how going through Values 301 helped them find their spiritual family. “We joined Milestone Church in 2011 after moving here from Memphis, Tennessee. Despite being active in the church, we didn’t find spiritual family for years after joining because we didn’t know we needed…
I’m terrible with directions. Anytime my wife and I go someplace new, I end up lost, trying to figure out where to go. Without the GPS, I’m liable to end up in a grassy field or on a dirt road, and I have to admit—I need help. So many people live life this way. We think we know where we’re going until we’re lost. We’re searching for something—someplace we can call home, but we just feel lost. No one wants…
How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? -Psalm 13:1 (NIV) If you’re asking questions like these, or you’ve asked them in the past, you’re not alone. Thoughts like these enter our minds, but the truth is, God sees all that we are going through. He cares about our pains and listens to our questions. He is always present and is always at work in our lives, whether we see it…
