Calendar of events at Creekside week of May 31-June 5

Upcoming Sermon

What if spiritual growth isn’t about trying harder…but becoming more like the One who saved us?

This Sunday, we’ll begin 2 Peter with a message called “Growing in Grace” (2 Peter 1:1–11). Peter reminds us that healthy disciples never stop growing—not because they are trying to earn God’s love, but because they already belong to Christ.

God has already given us everything we need for life and godliness. His grace comes first. But grace does not produce passivity—it produces pursuit.

So are we simply learning more about Jesus, or is knowing Him transforming the way we think, live, and love? Where have we become spiritually stagnant? And what step of obedience is God inviting us to take next?

The good news?

We are not left to change ourselves through our own strength. God is already at work within us, forming the character of Christ and producing fruit that blesses the people around us.

Join us this Sunday as we discover what it means to keep growing in grace, becoming more like Christ, and living fruitful lives for His kingdom.
