"So, there are all these different “Bibles” out there, and all these spiritual gurus, motivational “life coaches,” all telling you how to live. And you pile on top of these the advice you are getting every day from TV and the internet, from TV stars and athletes who think that because they are talented and rich, you need to listen to them as they t…

What is joy? How can joy strengthen us? And how can we make sure that our joy is rooted in the Lord? In this message, Hannah Martha Cohen Banks explores Nehemiah 8:10 and the access we have to joy through Jesus.

"Some of you guys came in here this morning pretty skeptical about Jesus. And when you hear his words, “I am The Way, The Truth, The Life, and no one gets to the Father without going through me,” you bristle. You want your own truth. You want your own way. … But … what if Jesus really was God, in a bod, stepping into our world to eradicate the barr…

How does the Tabernacle of the Old Testament become a prophetic picture of God’s final plans of incarnation in the New Testament? In this message Pastor Chris explores John 1 and what it truly means for Jesus to make his ‘Dwelling’ among us.

When Jesus offered an invitation to participate in this way, it wasn’t an invitation for you to believe — it was an invitation for you to follow. It was an invitation to experience him. An invitation to participate. Because Jesus believes that following him will make your life better, and it will make you better at life.And it’s why I think the bes…

This week, College and Justice Resident Faith Anderson teaches about the peace which comes from knowing God and His divine plan for those who love Him. The peace we experience in knowing and being known by God is a part of our inheritance as followers of Jesus.

See, that’s what Christmas is actually all about. At Christmas, we celebrate God becoming one of us to show us the way to the Father. Because we are lost and we don’t know it. We need to know the way. We are wrong, and we don’t know it. We need to know the truth.What moves you from being lost to no longer being lost? What is it that moves you from …

Matthew picks up on a prophecy spoken to the people of God in their darkest hour, that God wants to be with us in the darkest valleys and when we face the highest mountains.

"Bottom line, relatively speaking … we are blessed, right? We’re … rich even, right? The apostle Paul says, “Command those who are rich (This is a command for those of us who are Jesus followers; command those who are rich) in the things of this life not to be proud, but to place their hope, not in such an uncertain thing as riches, but in God, who…

We live in a world steeped in the lure and even mythology of what it means to live as "free people". But what does God teach us about freedom? How do we truly exercise our freedoms and what does it actually mean to be free?

"Money and stuff are needed in this world — they're a required part of our lives. But don't let them become what your life revolves around. Paul warns Timothy in the NT, "The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil.” Don't let your pursuit of money and the stuff it can get you become your first pursuit — your central pursuit.Because money ha…

"So, 3 myths, 3 misconceptions, mistakes, and misunderstandings about money that mess us up. Here’s mistake #1: We live as though it’s ours. We’re like, I earned it, it’s mine. And I can do whatever I want with what is mine, right? And we, Jesus' followers, just tweak it a little. As long as I give God his cut, the rest is mine. God gets his 10%, o…

In this week's sermon, we continue our Fall series "The Promise and Problem of More," exploring Solomon's pursuit of satisfaction in riches and possession as captured in Ecclesiastes. Despite the unparalleled accumulation of treasure, Solomon found them empty and unfulfilling, highlighting the vanity of misplaced desires. Here we will contrast this…

Sometimes, persecution is physical. The church’s history is full of stories of men and women who have been imprisoned, beaten, and even killed for their faith. Even now, there are brothers and sisters around the world who still face these dangers. The church has always lived in a world that fights against it, but our mission has never shifted. Our …

An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless--not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain.…

In a world that is continually pushing us into our polarized groups and encouraging us to view one another with distrust and suspicion, how can we learn to be a people that value first the Imago Dei in every person and refused to dehumanize one another to simply political identities?

So, check your heart. Who are you following? Who do you put your hope in? What team are you on first? Be careful following any person who claims to be a savior, because they can sound like Jesus and they can try to look like Jesus, but that’s one of the ways we accidentally find ourselves on the wrong team. Remember, Jesus is speaking to His discip…

Join guest speaker Dr. Dennis Burke as he shares a special message

We live in a world ruled by earthly empires, but King Jesus constantly calls back to our allegiance first to his reign and his Kingdom. In this message Pastor Chris reminds us of how we can center our hearts on the Kingdom of God, while still living faithfully within the empires of this world.

He came to build a different kind of kingdom and thought it was way more important than what we obsess over. " A God in a Bod thinks that there are things more important than healing our bodies, feeding our bellies, and defeating our enemies. What good is all that if your heart is still twisted, broken, and alienated from God?…

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.โดย noreply@blogger.com (3Ci)

In Revelation 7 we get a beautiful prophetic picture of every tribe, tongue and nation gathered around the throne of Jesus bringing their unique gift of worship.

Jesus claims that everything … everything you can think of … every ounce of authority we can find strewn throughout this world … is subject to Him.

What am I supposed to do with that information? W…

So, Jesus looks at these 11 guys and says, “All authority … ALL authority … both in heaven and on earth … all authority has been given to me.” … So … How much is “all”? Seriously, how much is “all”? We use that word so flippantly. Do you think Jesus was using the word flippantly, or do you think he meant it? And if Jesus has “all” authority, how mu…
