We live in a current culture where the idea of love has been so greatly transformed, wrongly applied, misused, misunderstood, and muddied by common usage that it's lost its true meaning. If we're going to understand love, experience love, be loved and give love. We need to reprogram what culture has taught us and grasp the love that comes from God.

Oftentimes, our pain, misfortunes and hardships that come with life can weigh us down and hinder God's purpose. When you read through the Bible you'll see that God often desires to use our pain to help fulfill our purpose. For that to happen, we must interpret our pain through the lens of God's purpose.

Too often we carry the unnecessary weight of SHAME. The enemy will try to take something you did and convince you that what you did is who you are. And if Satan can keep us in shame, he can minimize our intimacy, purpose/destiny/future and peace with God.

Is it ok to be mad or frustrated with God? In Jonah chapter 4, Jonah is angry with God. Jonah had an unhealthy "spiritual" heart. This message shows the product of an unhealthy heart.

"Then the Lord spoke to Jonah a second time." Have you ever wondered if God will accept you or take you back? The answer is YES! Always! Jonah chapter 3 is a chapter of second chances, grace, mission and salvation.

God did what to Jonah? God sending a great fish to swallow Jonah seems harsh. Actually, this is not meanness, it's mercy. God is not paying Jonah back FOR HIS SIN; this was God bringing Jonah back FROM HIS SIN.

Jonah chose to run away from God's Will. Why? Because of the hatred he harbored towards Nineveh. You're never farther from God than when you're close to Him and say "no."

Peter Kraft writes, “Of all the doctrines of Christianity, Hell is probably the most difficult to defend, the most burdensome to believe and the first to be abandoned.” Coming face to face with these passages on hell and asking these questions is a heart wrenching process. When it comes to hell, we can't afford to be wrong or ignorant. We need the truth.

Many doubt God's existence because they doubt the legitimacy of the Bible. They have doubts about its accuracy, its trustworthiness and its truthfulness. They see the Bible as outdated, irrelevant and mythological. This message responds to some of the main questions surrounding the legitimacy of the Bible.

Is Jesus Christ alone the only means that connects all mankind back to God? No one wants to be labeled a "narrow minded bigot," judgmental or exclusive. Our culture continues to drive us towards inclusiveness. Should Christians adopt this cultural mindset or is Jesus God's only answer for the world?

Where was God during the Las Vegas mass shooting? If He is all-powerful, why didn't He stop the hurricanes of South Texas and Puerto Rico? Many believe the most serious challenge to theism was, and is, and will continue to be the problem of evil and suffering. This message looks to the Bible to answer the question, why is there evil and suffering in the world?

Is faith and science at odds or do they compliment each other? The Bible teaches that science was created by God. The more you study God from a scientific perspective - the more real He becomes.

The 23rd Psalm is the most popular, most read and most memorized Psalm. It continues to be a Psalm of hope and comfort in our darkest hours.

What ushers grace from God is CONFESSION. Psalm 51 is a confession from King David to God for adultery and murder. This Psalm will highlight 5 truths about God's grace.

Guest Speaker, Rodger Wright, shares lessons learned from the wilderness from Psalm 63.

Psalm 122 dives into the most important topic the human mind could ever consider - WORSHIP. If you are not worshiping God you are worshiping something else. Our worship of God is meant to be the thing that shapes and directs everything we do in life.

Psalm 57 answers the question, Does God have a purpose for my life, and if so, how can I know it?

Psalm 88 is a real look into pain and hurt. But even in the midst of pain and despair; I choose not to fear; God is with me. I choose not to doubt; God is in control. I choose not to despair; God is good.

Psalms 119 speaks to the condition of our heart.
