The idea of truly being able to Travel Light in life is one that has captured the imagination of our hearts, but it does require an investment, a willingness to take a risk. I’ll share what it is, and you can judge for yourself if it’s worth it. KEY VERSE: Isaiah 40:31 But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary...

We start talking about how we can Travel Light in this whacky world! God has a plan and He’s made it very plain how to follow it. I’ll show you the first couple steps. Key Verse: Exodus 33:15 Then Moses said, “If you don’t personally go with us, don’t make us leave this place.

We wrap up our series, Unwrapping His Name, with the most important info you can have knowing what we know that Jesus will come back one day and set up His Kingdom. What is that question? How can you be prepared? Thankfully, Jesus tells us.

We Unwrap the Name Jesus was given of Everlasting Father! Why is He called our Dad? Is that even what it means? I’ve got so much I want to share to shed light on this one! C Key Verse: John 1:1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.

We continue our Christmas focus on Unwrapping the Name of Jesus. This Sunday, we look at why He is called the “Mighty God” and why that is so important for us if we are going to trust Him with us. Key Verse: John 9:39 Then Jesus told him, “I entered this world to render judgment—to give sight to the blind and to show those who think they see that they are blind.”

This Christmas, we're unwrapping more than presents; we're unwrapping the nature of God Himself. For too long, we've settled for a reality with a very small God, living small lives with small dreams and even smaller expectations. But what if we really believed God is who He says He is? Join us as we unwrap four names from Isaiah's ancient prophecy. Discover the God who is big enough for your bigge...

Key Verse: John 6:12-13 After everyone was full, Jesus told his disciples, “Now gather the leftovers, so that nothing is wasted.” 13 So they picked up the pieces and filled twelve baskets with scraps left by the people who had eaten from the five barley loaves.

Key Verse: Philippians 1:6, 6 And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

We continue to Dream about where God is leading us; it’s far Beyond where we could have imagined and will require us to Improvise, Adapt and with His strength Overcome! 

The climb has begun, and we’ve already scaled heights we once thought impossible. But this journey into the Beyond isn’t over yet. We’re only three-quarters of the way through year one of the Beyond Initiative, and now is the moment to re-anchor our faith, tighten our grip, and keep climbing. Anyone who’s ever gone through a challenge knows the start is exciting. It’s when the path gets steep, you...

We get the Apostle Paul’s final message on how to truly live: Set Free to Live Free. It’s powerful and life changing.

Paul reminds believers that true freedom is found in living under the guidance of the Holy Spirit rather than being ruled by sinful desires. Being free to be Spirit-led means walking in step with God’s Spirit, allowing Him to shape our choices and character. This Spirit-led life naturally produces the fruit of the Spirit. Instead of striving through human effort, we live out our faith as transform...

We’ve been talking a lot about living in the Freedom we have through Jesus, but what does that actually look like? How do we live freely well? Paul point us in the right direction. Key Verse: John 13:35 Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”

Reality has a way of sucking the life out of our dreams, but that is not the life God wants for you. He wants you Set Free To Live Free, and this week, the Apostle Paul is going to make that point very clear for each of us. We have a new reality! 'Key Verse: Galatians 4:12 Dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to live as I do in freedom from these things, for I have become like you Gentiles—...

Why are there so many rules in the Bible? I thought God was a God of love. Shouldn’t life just be about loving people? Are the rules necessary? The Apostle Paul has the answers for you as he teaches us that we are Set Free to Live Free. Key Verse: Galatians 3:28 There is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female. For you are all one in Christ Jesus.

God wants us Set Free so we can Live Free, but so much of the baggage we bring with us keeps us from experiencing this true freedom. We learn a bit more of what this freedom Jesus offers looks like. Key Verse: Galatians 3:14 Through Christ Jesus, God has blessed the Gentiles with the same blessing he promised to Abraham, so that we who are believers might receive the promised Holy Spirit through f...

This Sunday, things get exciting with the Apostle Paul fighting for his spiritual kids! He shows us exactly how far he's willing to go to uncover and share the truth about Jesus and what Jesus means to each of us.  Key Verse: Galatians 2:20 My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, w...

We continue to discover the true freedom God offer us believing that we were Set Free to Live Free. This week, we’ll learn why we can trust what God is telling us through the Apostle Paul. Key Verse: Galatians 1:11-12 Dear brothers and sisters, I want you to understand that the gospel message I preach is not based on mere human reasoning. I received my message from no human source, and no one taug...

What if real freedom is better than you imagined?  We all know the pressure of trying to meet expectations, juggle responsibilities, and keep up appearances. It’s exhausting. What if the freedom you’re searching for isn’t about surrendering all the rules, but discovering the kind of freedom that actually gives you life? Jesus offers freedom that lifts the weight, not adds to it. Not the “figure-it...

We wrap up our "Life with God" series with an incredible couple who have so much in common with each of us, Through their story, we can be inspired to change the world like they did. Key Verse: Romans 16:3 Give my greetings to Priscilla and Aquila, my co-workers in the ministry of Christ Jesu

Life is full of choices. Coke or Pepsi? City life or country living? If you’ve taken a stroll down the cereal aisle lately you have hundreds of options to choose from. In a life filled with so many choices, are we daily choosing what is better? Following Jesus, learning from Him and becoming like Him is the better way. As we look at the lives of siblings, we will notice that every day we are prese...

I’m loving talking about how different people in the Scriptures walked with God. Unfortunately, the person we’re talking about in this week's story doesn’t have a happy ending. Why? Well, his fears got the best of him. Key Verse: Matthew 27:24 Pilate saw that he wasn’t getting anywhere and that a riot was developing. So he sent for a bowl of water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I...

Do you think of yourself more as a “thrill seeker” or someone who likes to play it safe? What if the biggest opportunities in your life are hiding behind your greatest fears? This Sunday, we’ll look at one of the boldest, wildest, most underrated stories in the entire Bible; when a man named Benaiah chased a lion into a pit on a snowy day. It sounds crazy…but what if that kind of courage is exactl...

Some of the people we find in the Scriptures are just so inspiring. This week, we’re going to learn about a guy who had everything figured out and going his way until he didn’t; He allowed himself to be challenged and then changed into something even better than before. That’s the kind of person I think we all want to be. We will learn from his story how our story could be like that. Key Verse: Jo...
