March 31, 2024 // [SPECIAL 1-PART MESSAGE]
People ultimately weren’t convinced to follow Jesus because of what he taught. They became convinced because of what they saw.
March 24, 2024 // [SPECIAL 1-PART MESSAGE]
When we experience faith in a personal way, we see what following Jesus is all about. And if we miss this, we miss out on the fullness of life that Jesus came to offer each one of us…personally.
March 17, 2024 // [SPECIAL 1-PART MESSAGE]
In order to maximize our potential and fulfill our mission as a church, everyone should serve somewhere.
March 10, 2024 // [SPECIAL 1-PART MESSAGE]
Forgiving someone before they ask for it isn’t easy, but it’s exactly what God did for us.
March 3, 2024 // [Part 3 of 3]
It’s easier to keep track of something than to catch up with it. If our money could talk, it would say, “I’m easy to track, but lose track of me and you will lose your peace of mind.”
February 25, 2024 // [Part 2 of 3]
Are you mastering your money or being mastered by it? Maybe it’s time to flip the script.
February 18, 2024 // [Part 1 of 3]
If our money could talk, what would it tell us? You might be shocked to find out that what our money would say is pretty close to what Jesus said. Does our money add meaning to our lives or is it the meaning of our lives?
January 21, 2024 // [Part 3 of 3]
What was the original intent of physical intimacy? How do we raise the bar and move toward that ideal?
January 14, 2024 // [Part 2 of 3]
Real intimacy doesn’t happen by accident. If we want to be known and accepted in our marriages, dating relationships, and friendships, it’s going to take vulnerability.
January 7, 2024 // [Part 1 of 3]
Why is our bar so low? It’s never too late (or too soon) to raise the bar and strive for real intimacy.
February 11, 2024 // [Part 3 of 3]
We should fear the consequences of closing our hands more than the consequences of losing what’s in them.
February 4, 2024 // [Part 2 of 3]
Our behavior will eventually reflect the condition of our hearts.
January 28, 2024 // [Part 1 of 3]
The more you choose to surrender to God, the more he will lead you to peace with yourself.
December 17, 2023 // [Part 3 of 3]
One reason for the season is to remove our excuses for moving away from people unlike us.
December 10, 2023 // [Part 2 of 3]
A big reason Jesus came was to demonstrate what God is like.
December 3, 2023 // [Part 1 of 3]
God blessed the world with a different kind of King who came to establish a different kind of kingdom.
November 26, 2023 // [Part 3 of 3]
What do we do when life and circumstances we can’t control bring us to a breaking point?
November 19, 2023 // [Part 2 of 3]
We are being distracted to death. But we don’t have to be. Jesus reminds us that we always have a choice and can choose what is better in order to live a live full of joy, peace, and love.
November 12, 2023 // [Part 1 of 3]
Feeling overwhelmed? Feel like life is running you rather than you running your life? Jesus gives us an invitation to give us our lives back.
October 15, 2023 // [Part 2 of 2]
Have you ever wanted to make a difference...like, a big one? Well, here’s your chance! And we’ve made it as simple as we know how
October 8, 2023 // [Part 1 of 2]
We don’t have a responsibility to predict what God is up to. But we do have a responsibility to help meet people’s immediate needs.
October 1, 2023 // [Part 6 of 6]
Lying to ourselves to feel good about ourselves keeps us from doing what’s good for ourselves.
September 24, 2023 // [Part 5 of 6]
Nobody likes being told what to do, but when we don’t want advice is often when we need it most.
September 17, 2023 // [Part 4 of 6]
Generous people don’t give sporadically. They have a plan.
September 10, 2023 // [Part 3 of 6]
No one said it was easy, but releasing someone from what they've done to you is your only way to freedom.
September 3, 2023 // [Part 2 of 6]
Relationships go better when two people engage in a certain type of competition.
August 27, 2023 // [Part 1 of 6]
Your decisions aren't just about you. They impact people closest to you as well.
August 13, 2023 // [Part 2 of 2]
If you repay evil for evil, you will write a pretty predictable story. But there’s a way to write a remarkable one instead.
August 6, 2023 // [Part 1 of 2]
Hurting someone because they hurt you doesn't end the cycle. It perpetuates it. And it makes you look like the person you dislike.
July 16, 2023 // [Part 3 of 3]
Just because someone claims to be our enemy doesn't mean we must return the favor.
July 9, 2023 // [Part 2 of 3]
Our reactions reflect our confidence or our lack of confidence in God.
July 2, 2023 // [Part 1 of 3]
Our actions rarely tell the whole story, but our reactions most certainly do. And Jesus instructs us to leverage them for good.
June 4, 2023 // [Part 3 of 3]
“Have” is never satisfying. Feeding our appetites for stuff only increases those appetites. Believe it or not, it’s possible to be content whatever your circumstances. You just have to let your heavenly Father lead the way.
May 21, 2023 // [Part 2 of 3]
We don’t always get what we want, regardless of planning, effort, or our own merit. The greener grass is possible, but you can’t get there on your own. Shift your focus to the One who loves you and gave himself up for you.
May 14, 2023 // [Part 1 of 3]
The greener grass is possible, but you can’t get there on your own. God wants to lead you to the greener grass, but you have to choose to follow.
April 30, 2023 // [Part 3 of 3]
Most people believe in heaven, and most people believe they'll end up there. Can we really know? People came before commandments. With God, relationships always precede rules.
April 23, 2023 // [Part 2 of 3]
Most people believe in heaven, and most people believe they'll end up there. Can we really know? Jesus offered the most just system possible in an unjust world.
April 16, 2023 // [Part 1 of 3]
Most people believe in heaven, and most people believe they'll end up there. Can we really know? The belief that “Good people go to heaven” sounds nice on the surface. But it doesn’t make sense.
April 2, 2023 // [Part 6 of 6]
Jesus didn't ask for people to just believe in him. He invited people to follow him.
March 26, 2023 // [Part 5 of 6]
Being right doesn't give us the right to be self-righteous.
March 19, 2023 // [Part 4 of 6]
Love for God is demonstrated by love for others.
March 12, 2023 // [Part 3 of 6]
Whatever your next step is, take it. You don’t know what hangs in the balance.
March 5, 2023 // [Part 2 of 6]
Admirers of Jesus didn’t shape civilization. The doers did.
February 26, 2023 // [Part 1 of 6]
Christians are not expected to believe based solely on a collection of ancient manuscripts. The foundation of our faith is anchored to something far more substantial and sustainable.
February 19, 2023 // [Part 2 of 2]
The church is not here to win. It's here for something different. Disagreement is unavoidable, but division is a choice. We can disagree politically and love unconditionally.
February 12, 2023 // [Part 1 of 2]
The reaction of many evangelicals to political and cultural shifts in recent years revealed what they valued most—winning. But the church is not here to win. It's here for something different. When it comes to potentially polarizing topics, our posture, tone, and approach will tell others all they need to know about what’s most important to us.
