11/17/24 - Part 8 | Where There's a Why There's a Will

Every big challenge in life requires a why. What is your big why?

11/10/24 - Mission Sunday | There Changes Here

We think we're blessing the nations when we give generously...and we are, BUT we too often fail to acknowledge the blessings we receive when we dig deep and give.

11/3/24 - Be Still and Know I Am God

Today we will look at the peace and rest we can find in the Lord!

10/27/24 - Exiles | It's Not About the Lions

At nearly 80 Daniel is still having to face life or death decisions to live his faith. To find the fortitude to carry on we can't look at the lions, we have to turn our eyes toward God.

10/20/24 - Exiles | Crash the Party

In Babylon it can feel like things won't actually change, that the bad guys will keep winning and the good guys will stay in exile. But the reality is there will be a reckoning.

10/13/24 - SUPERNANZA 2024

For SUPERNANZA 2024, we will look at Luke 15 and study the idea of celebration found in the Lord!

10/06/24 - Exiles / Heaven Rules

It's not healthy for humans or humanity to think we're the center of the universe. The lesson of humility is one of the hardest we'll ever learn.

09/29/24 - Exiles / Fire & Faith

How do we push forward when it feels like everything is pushing us backward?

09/22/24 - Exiles / Perseverance & Perspective

Determination requires anticipation. Where do we get the fuel to keep going, particularly when we're pressured to quit?

09/15/24 - Exiles / Be A Rebel

Christian engage the culture, without conforming to the culture, to transform the culture for it's good.

Exiles | Part One - Worst Case Scenario

What if the worst thing that could happen happened? What do we learn about ourselves and God through intense difficulties?

08/18/24 - How To Be Controversial

We have big opinions and there's no shortage of controversies for everyone to have big opinions about. Jesus doesn't just teach us what to think, he models a WAY to engage in the constant controversies we're surrounded by.

08/11/24 - Senior Sunday

Today we honor all our graduating seniors!

09/04/24 - Holy Sexuality | Part 5 - Jesus, Sex & Gender

Ok, there is little more emotionally charged, confusing and divisive than the conversation of sex and gender in our current cultural moment. The beating heart of the debate is how best to love and support those who experience incongruence between their biological sex and feeling of gender identity. How can we be Jesus-like as we wrestle with this important topic? 

07/28/24 - Holy Sexuality | Part4 - Jesus' Posture Toward Others

How should we respond to others? Jesus was Grace and Truth. We need to accept people where they are-just as Jesus did. It is more about our hearts than it is their sin.

07/21/24 - Holy Sexuality | Part 3 - Jesus & Homosexuality

This might be the toughest topic in our current cultural moment. The loudest voices expressing the most extreme opinions aren't usually very helpful. Most of all, it's not simply an abstract topic or issues, it's about how to reconcile some challenging verses with people we love. How do we navigate Scripture, culture and our command to love?

07/14/24 - Holy Sexuality | Part 2 - Jesus & Sexuality

The Bible keep using this phrase, "sexual immorality." It sounds passé if not regressive and often discarded. The question we should be asking is, have human ideas of sexual ethics really made life better for everyone? 

07/07/24 - Holy Sexuality | Part 1 - Jesus & Sexuality

The concept of sexuality is absolutely dominating our popular culture. It's clearly a powerful and, if misused, dangerous spiritual matter. The good news is that no matter how deep our brokenness, confusion, or pain, God provides redemption and goodness.

06/30/24 - As It Is In Heaven | Part 7 - Shalom In an Age of Anxiety

With rates of anxiety skyrocketing, it's been called an "age of anxiety." While a diagnosis of anxiety and Scripture's definition of worry are different and have different solutions, they both disrupt shalom. We can't worry our way to peace. So, what do we do?

06/23/24 - As It Is In Heaven | Part 6 - Shalom Is Meant to be Shared

The idea of sharing our faith makes most Christians break out in a cold sweat of anxiety. But what if we've got it all wrong? What if we're not trying to convince someone we are right but rather just participating in what God is doing?
