Emmanuel: God-With-Us and
Us-With-God

God is not Alenuel (God-Against-Us), Tachteynuel (God-Under-Us), or "Menuel" (God-Away-From-Us), but Emmanuel (God-With-Us), with us in Christ through every aspect of existence from birth to death. Because He is fully "God-With-Us," He secures our eternal hope and identity as "Us-With-God."

The Eclipse of the Heart

God's love for us is never lost or absent. His promise made to us through the Son is forever. Just turn around.

How the Message Gets Heard

The message about Easter is that Christ was the perfect steward of his perfect life. He gave it for us perfectly, and out of that came the resurrection, the triumph of life over death.
