We’re starting a brand new series where we hone in on the book of Ephesians. This week we are specifically looking at chapter 1 where we see that it’s through the trinity that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Lean in and sit on the edge of your seat and join us for a great teaching.
If you have joined us for the last couple of weeks, you have spent time understanding the Bible as one seamless story. As we move into the final week of our series, Moving Home, we discuss the end story where heaven and earth collide. We are moving home. It’s a guarantee that is already, not yet.
We are in the seventh week of our Moving home series and today we are continuing our conversation on Family, which we began talking about last week. The enemy is at work to destroy the unity we have as a family by using the tool of division. Let's take a moment and hear more about how we can keep the unity that has been freely given to us.
We have a special day planned for week six of our current series, Moving Home. Not only are we talking about what we are called to do as part of God’s family, but we are also celebrating together the new life-transformation that is expressed through the act of baptism. Secondly, we have a very exciting announcement to share with you concerning our Prescott Valley Campus. Lean in with us and sit on the edge of your seat as we step into this powerful day with one another....
For week five of Moving Home, we’re continuing to go through the Bible as one unified story together. Join us for a meaningful time together as we look at who Jesus is throughout the narrative of scripture. Get ready to lean in with us this morning.
If you joined us last week, you might remember talking about Runaways. As we move into week four of Moving Home, we see how God is bringing rescue from our wayward brokenness. In the same way that God built a nation out of Israel, He is building a nation in us today. The foundation of the nation is not the land itself. Instead, it is God's people and His love for us.
For week three of Moving Home, we’re continuing to go through the Bible as one unified story together. Join us for a meaningful time together as we look at Runaways, the disjointed partnership with God, and see that on the other side there is still hope.
For week 2 of our current series, “Moving Home”, we are discussing the topic of what God originally intended home to be. Where do we fit within the story and within the purpose that God deliberately designed us for? Make sure to focus in as we talk about how home is the heart of our purpose and our identity. Home is not a place, instead It’s God’s presence living within you.
This week Pastor John kicks off our new series “Moving Home.” Together we will dive into understanding the Bible as one seamless story and set our eyes on moving home. Lean in with us this morning and let’s get ready for a great week ahead. God is already on the move.
This weekend we have the honor of hearing from two very special guests who talk about the freedom that can be found in Christ! Join us in our conversation with our Next Steps Pastor, Bob Hoyt. Bob will be joined on stage by Brendan McDonough, who is the lone survivor of the Yarnell Hill Fire in 2013. Make sure to tune in for a great time that is filled with worship, encouragement, redemption, and family.
Easter at Watson was such a special day! We got to come together as one body and as one family to celebrate our risen savior. We're glad to have you join us today and love getting to spend this time together with you. In today’s teaching, Pastor John talks about how It's not about how far you can go in the physical, but that it's about how far Jesus already went for you in the spiritual. It took God almighty going into a tomb of stone so that you can change your heart of stone into a heart of li...
As we prepare for the celebration of Christ's resurrection this Easter, Pastor John analyzes how God can bring life to every single person who has dry bones, restoring them to fullness in Him. Join us for a meaningful time together as look at the dry bones we might have and what dry bones we see around us. Let's lean into life and resurrection today.
Today you are in for a special treat! We are excited to welcome back Pastor Mike this weekend as our guest speaker. In today’s teaching, we see dive into the story about the raising of Lazarus. Pastor Mike walks us through 4 different takeaways from the story and how that relates to us today in our relationship with Jesus. Get ready to lean in with us as we continue to walk generously with God and with those around us.
For week 6 of our series on generosity, we are talking about the generosity of our finances. The blessings that God has provided us with are never-ending and overly abundant. To give generously through your finances is to make a declaration of the generosity within your heart. By giving back to God, we are demonstrating where we put our faith and trust. Let’s step in and give generously together.
In week 5 of The Way, we are going to examine the generosity of serving and how it impacts you and those around you. Jesus came not to be served, but to serve. It’s through His generous service that we have been gifted with abundant life in Jesus. You were given this life-changing gift, not to withhold for yourself, but to present it to all that you encounter. The life change of Jesus is made available to others through your generosity. Within the topic of serving generously, we will focus on bo...
Week four of our series on generosity focuses in on the words that we speak and the generosity that flows from them. Words are everywhere; common within our everyday life and even our entire world. Our words are filled with influence, having the potential to fill others with life or with ruin. This week we are taking practical steps towards embracing words that breathe life into the people around us. Would those who are around you say that you’re generous with your words? Whether your answer is ...
We are in the third week of our series on generosity, where we direct our attention to the idea that a generous soul is a reflection of a generous God. This week we continue to step into actionable steps for embracing the abundant generosity of God throughout different areas of our life. Today we are centering our focus on the topic of generosity through the evaluation of our time. We need to redefine the opportunities that fill our time and shift our point-of-view to see opportunity as the full...
Last week we kicked off a new series that focuses on the idea that a generous soul is a reflection of a generous God. Each week, we are taking practical steps to embrace God’s abundant generosity throughout different areas of our life. Today, we look at generosity from a different perspective, focusing on the generosity of the Gospel. To be able to live generously with joy, we must first give thanks for the generosity in the Gospel. The generous Gospel impacts us on a personal level that transfo...
We’re jumping right into a brand new teaching series called, The Way. Throughout the next year, we are focusing on spiritual habits that form us. In this series, we are honing in on the topic of generosity. This week we are specifically looking at the generosity of God along with His nature and character that is on display all throughout the bible. The character of God is generous, but too often we don’t slow down long enough to see it. This week, through thanksgiving and gratitude, we begin to ...
Today we had the opportunity to share in the celebration of baptism with one another. In part with the life given to us anew in Christ, we get to hear a special teaching from guest speaker, Bob Hoyt. Bob talks to us about the subject of our story. We have our own storyline within the much grander narrative of God. As seen in 2 Corinthians, by finding our story inside of Christ, we become a new creation. To hear about how you can live with confidence in your story and of God’s love for you, go ah...
Can you believe that we are already in our 4th week of ‘Castles of Sand’? We have loved this practical series, helping us to find rhythms to stand on as we build a solid foundation in 2021. This week we discuss the topic of forgiveness. In Matthew 6:12 we see that there is a daily happening of seeking forgiveness of our debts, as we forgive our debaters. Within that happening, there is a releasing of debts from both us and God. This week we are challenged to constructively pursue forgiveness in ...
As we step into week 3 of our current series, "Castles of Sand'', Pastor John talks about the habit of hearing. We discuss how Intentional hearing is key to shaping what you will get out of the things you hear in God’s word. We discuss the question ‘if intentionality is key to my spiritual growth and my identity, what’s my intention when it comes to hearing the words of Jesus? To help identify your intentions and to receive practical steps toward truly hearing the words of Christ, check out toda...
We are in our second week of Castles of Sand, and we are diving into the rhythm of prayer. Prayer is the medium that carries us to experience God, taking all of who we are as we step into connection with God in a fresh way. If we are going to build our life on a firm foundation, then one of the practices and realities is that prayer will be a part of our life. In today's teaching, we look at practical ways to begin making prayer a habitual rhythm within each of our lives. You don't want to miss ...
We are starting the new year with a brand new series, 'Castles of Sand'. This series is all about the rhythms to stand on. A foolish man builds his house on sand - what are you building your life's foundation on? The ground for building is optional, but storms are not. In this series, we will look at practical rhythms to put in place to help you have a solid foundation that will not waver when the storms of life come raging in. In today's teaching, we see that we have a responsibility to hear th...

Week four of A Reason For Hope focuses on the topic of Peace. As a peacemaker, you have been given the raw materials to make something new. Because of our hope in Jesus, you can go and make peace by sowing and cultivating peace in your life. What about the moments where peace feels miles away and everything in your life feels like it's in turmoil and chaos? Today we see that, while you're longing for change and peace in your circumstances, "peace isn't the absence of something. It's the presence...
For our 3rd week of our Advent series, A Reason For Hope, we discuss the Hope of Joy that is given through Jesus. The things that happen around you shouldn't dictate the joy that you have. Because of the birth and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, we can have great joy no matter the circumstances that we face. Joy starts internally and translates externally. When you walk with the spirit of God, joy can't help but to abound in all that you do. Tune in today to hear more about how you c...
In week two of our Advent series, A Reason For Hope, we lean into the period of waiting that took place while anticipating the arrival of Jesus. In today's teaching, we turn to the Bible to see how waiting is actually an act of love that God has given to us. Waiting is never void of tension and we live in a culture that tells us that the act of hurrying and receiving instant results are far better than waiting. But what if the tension of waiting is actually designed by God, out of love, to give ...
This week we launch our new series, "A Reason For Hope". In this series, we focus on the season of advent; looking both behind us and in front of us with anticipation of the arrival of Jesus. In this season, we have a reason for the hope that we have. Today we are focusing on having gratitude in the present and hope for the future because of the truth from the past. Watch today's teaching to hear about the ways that both gratitude and thanksgiving through prayer can help us in this season of adv...
In a culture that is surrounded by noise, we are invited to make it our ambition to lead a quiet soul, which is the result of a quiet life. How is it that we are to enter into a tranquil, calm, quiet life? That is exactly what Pastor Ron talks about in his teaching titled, "A Quiet Life". In this season of life, it's easy to find ourselves busy and distracted from the things that God has placed before us. This week we identify the reason why God has called us to live a life void of busyness and ...
