The Real Jesus

Jesus wants to show us what he's really like. Yet when he reveals himself to us, we are confronted with our misperceptions about him, and we have a choice to make: keep looking or look away. In Matthew 16 and 17, the disciples are confronted with their made-up messiahs as Jesus reveals this simple truth about his mission: the road to glory goes straight through the cross.

Seek His Face: Beholding as Spiritual Warfare

God is good. I am loved. Jesus wins. These three truths are foundational to our understanding of the Good News about Jesus, so they are exactly the three things the Enemy wants us to doubt. Often we must fight to behold God's beauty in a broken world, but on the other side of the battle we find a faithful Father whose been with us all along. Behold the Lamb of God!

Behold the Lamb of God!

Discipleship begins, ends, and everything in between, with BEHOLDING THE LAMB. Our walk with Jesus is a repeated process of redirecting our gaze away from lesser loves, dimmer lights, partial truths, and back towards him. This is something we do in community, as we constantly point one another back to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth and remind ourselves what that means for us: when we Behold the Lamb, we behold our salvation.

We Have an Everlasting Father w/ Tinika Wyatt

Join us as Tinika Wyatt shares the hope we have in Jesus, sent by an Everlasting Father to bring salvation, light, and hope into every dark situation we face. That same God empowers us to be the light we've received to others in our daily lives. The question is, do we look like our Father in heaven?

Mary's Yes: Embracing Hope in the Unknown

In this Advent season, we're reminded of the importance of waiting with hope, filling our lives with stories of God's ultimate triumph and love, and the Spirit's sanctifying work within us as we wait for God's promises to come to pass. Mary's story in Luke's gospel invites us to ponder the concept of freedom through surrender and the role of stories in shaping our spiritual imagination. Embrace the light in the darkness with us as we prepare for the miracle of Christ's coming and the promise of his return.

Advent: Wonderful Counselor

The season of Advent invites us into a period of intentional waiting, as we prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ. Such waiting transforms our spiritual lives and unites us to the long story of redemption and rescue recorded in Scripture and fulfilled in the life of Jesus. Discover how this sacred season invites us to embrace God’s light in our shadows, seek divine wisdom in our circumstances, and find comfort in our weary souls.

Building a Life That Endures

In the final message of our Sermon on the Mount series, we are faced with a choice: Live out Jesus' wisdom in our daily lives, or go back to business as usual. Embracing Jesus' teachings leads to a flourishing and enduring life, even amidst the inevitable storms that come our way, because his word is a foundation that cannot be moved. Rejecting his teachings leads to a life that looks sturdy, but will ultimately crumble. Wisdom cries out in the street. Will you answer?

Follow Jesus or Die

From our series, "Sermon on the Mount." As Jesus prepares to send his disciples back down the mountain, he warns them, and us, that our ability to enter his kingdom depends on how we respond to his message. Will we embrace Jesus as the True King and obey his teachings as he guides us down the narrow path that leads to life? Or will we choose the path of least resistance that leads only to destruction? What's more, wolves lie in wait to devour, pretending to be sheep so they can lead us astray. But don't worry: wolves don't win in this story. Jesus does. We have only to keep hold of his outstretched hand.

Jesus' Vision for Relationships

From our series, "Sermon on the Mount." Jesus envisions a kingdom, his church, where we truly pursue the best interest of other people through sacrificial love, self-aware mercy, and truth-telling, especially when it’s hard. But we will only commit to working through relational conflict once we catch Jesus' vision for community. In a world of church hurt, burnt bridges, and broken relationships, Jesus invites us to (re)build cathedrals of love in which God can dwell–and He gives us the tools to do it. 

Seek First the Kingdom

From our series "Sermon on the Mount." In the midst of a broken world full of broken people who perpetuate broken systems, God's kingdom alone will last forever. That's why Jesus says: Don't worry. Seek first. God got you. What he means is: Center your life around your heavenly Father's will, and watch him take care of you. Are you not worth more than many sparrows? Listen now to learn more.
