What if the reason you feel exhausted, anxious, or emotionally “held together by duct tape” is because you’re patching what God is trying to restore?
In this powerful message, Pastor Mike reveals why so many of us look fine on the outside while quietly cracking on the inside—and how the peace of God doesn’t just soothe the symptoms… it makes you whole. You’ll come to understand that real peace isn’t the absence of conflict but the presence of spiritual integrity—a wholeness that holds your soul, your relationships, and your purpose together when life falls apart.
If you’ve been:
• patching your emotional leaks with distraction
• numbing your anxiety with busyness
• taping together broken relationships
• hiding behind a practiced smile…

Living & Working With Gen Z - NOW PLAYING
What if the “lazy, entitled, glued-to-their-phones” generation is actually one of the most passionate, purpose-driven generations we’ve ever seen?
In this episode of Groundwork, Pastor Mike Collins sits down with Jim DellaNeve—Boeing systems architect, Pepperdine adjunct professor, and coauthor of Working with Gen Z—to bust the myths and get honest about what Gen Z is really like at work, at church, and at home.
You’ll hear research-based insights drawn from a nationwide study of Gen Z interns and young professionals, plus practical takeaways for parents, pastors, teachers, and managers who actually want to understand and lead this generation well—not just complain about them.

Living Nativity Festival
Again this year, we’ll be visiting Granite Creek Church in Claremont for their 24th Annual Living Nativity. But this time around, there’s a twist!,
This year, it’s grown into a full-out festival with a variety-show format–a refreshed 45-minute program celebrating the birth of Jesus through sing-along Christmas carols, an original dance number by Adage Dance Center, and a nativity-focused skit.
Additionally, kids can catch a new live-action Christmas themed show in our immersive Children's Ministry space. Guests can shop in the Nativity Marketplace, pet a camel, roast some s'mores, grab a bite from the food vendors, and much more!
The program runs two nights only–December 21 & 22 from 5-9pm. No tickets are needed and parking is free.

Winter Camp 2026
Some of the best, most life-changing memories you’ll ever make happen at camp—and this year’s Winter Youth Camp (Jan 30–Feb 1, 2026) is your chance to grab a whole new set of them. Think about wild games and tournaments, playing in the snow (hopefully!), great worship sessions, warm cabins, good food, strengthening old friendships and building new ones.
Cabins are assigned before we leave, so be sure to register early. Cost is $150, and the deadline to sign up is Jan 19th.
Don’t miss it. This is the kind of weekend you’ll talk about for years.

Join us Sunday mornings at 9 as Mark Quick helps us explore life-changing truths about finding strength in humility, hope in hardship, and purpose when life feels unfair. Bring your Bible and your curiosity.
