When it comes to Immeasurably More and our preparation for Northstar’s future Ministry Center, I would think Northstar members and friends have questions that are echoing around in their heads as we walk through this season of waiting. Questions like, “Are we close to the final steps on securing financing for the project?” and, “When [...]
https://youtu.be/OV3-YIkz94Q It's been an incredible journey for the faith family of Northstar Church since our launch in 2003. We are reaching out to our "alumni" this Christmas season and inviting them to prayerfully consider "giving back" to Northstar's Immeasurably More campaign during 2018. What to do: Respond to the alumni survey here and let [...]
When I agreed to lead prayer for our Immeasurably More campaign, I did so because I felt like something was missing without having the prayers of our church body united behind this campaign. I have discovered so much more because our God never wastes and opportunity and likely never accomplishes only one thing with anything [...]

I have been in many church buildings and, especially with the older and ornate church buildings, wondered how they got built. They are typically pretty ornate [...]
The Building Team has continued to meet since our Member Meeting on May 31 to examine options, pray and invite input from members. It's been a refreshing season for the team. One possibility for optional financing has presented itself, and we are meeting with a representative from a company named Ziegler on Tuesday evening, July [...]
In January Northstar launched the hashtag #100Sundays on social media. It was intended to be a fun informational countdown about the Immeasurably More campaign and preparation for our new facilities. After applications were made to local banks for loans, we learned that we would need to approach our financing in a different way. This led to what might [...]
In our last post, Pausing and Praying, we embraced the reality that we are not where we want to be financially in our Immeasurably More campaign. We are not discouraged.
