When there’s bad blood in a relationship, the easiest thing to do is to let resentment and bitterness grow without addressing the issue.

August 28, 2022 // [Part 1 of 6]

YOU DO YOU? // Almighty Me

July 17, 2022 [Part 1 of 3]
Our culture would have us look deeply into our hearts to discover our most authentic selves. The world says we should look inward, but the gospel challenges us to look upward. And by looking upward, we will not lose ourselves, but rather find ourselves - our true selves.

WELL VERSED // Gospel

June 19, 2022 [Part 3 of 3]
Whatever we experience, someone has been through it before. We would be wise to lean in and listen to advice from that person. We are wrapping up this series by continuing to tune in to the book of Psalms to learn how to handle life’s highs and lows through some honest conversation with God.

June 12, 2022 [Part 2 of 3]
It seems like everyone is getting really good at being critical these days. And what do we gain by it? The answer may surprise you. And it’s nothing new. Thousands of years ago, the nation of Israel dealt with this. We can find new hope for today from what they experienced.

WELL VERSED // Honest to God

June 5, 2022 [Part 1 of 3]
No one wants to be a “Debbie Downer.” But we often have areas of our lives that are challenging, broken, or weak. And the degree to which we are honest with God about those areas is often the degree to which we can experience him in the struggle.

When Life Happens

Do What You Know

Now and Later

November 7, 2021

One of the things that can keep us from living beyond average is the tension between now and later. We’re tempted to live for the moment, to satisfy our desires instantly. But when we pursue instant gratification, the problems in our lives increase. To be anything but average, you have to learn to stop living for now and begin living for later.
