Are you tired of taking the crown back from Jesus? In this powerful message, discover Jesus' radical vision for His Kingdom through the Beatitudes.  Key Verse: Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Life doesn't have to wait for someday. What if the change you're searching for—the purpose, the meaning, the breakthrough—isn't waiting in some distant future, but available right here, right now? "Kingdom. Here. Now." explores how Jesus taught that transformative possibilities exist in our everyday lives when we shift our perspective. Discover practical ways to bring hope, healing, and positive c...

Julie shares how God transforms our shattered hearts into something beautiful through Mary's real journey.

We continue our discussion around Cancel Culture and how its fingers of influence has found its way into the heart of the church. Cancel Culture is destructive everywhere, but nowhere as much as it is for followers of Jesus.

In a world where one wrong move can get you written off, #CANCELED tackles our culture's tendency to dismiss people who think differently. We're living in an era where disagreement often leads to disconnection—where the response to opposing viewpoints is to hit the virtual "delete" button on relationships. Join us as we explore what it means to create a space where you can bring your real question...

This Easter, join us as we explore what happened when ancient prophecies collided with history's most shocking moment. This moment changed billions of lives across thousands of years—including yours. The Jesus Way isn't just about a holiday. It's about a choice that transforms everything. Key Verse: Acts 2:21 But everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.’

We talk about one of Jesus’ most lonely moments on His Way to the cross. How Jesus handled it is an essential lesson for us all! Key Verse: Mark 14:36 “Abba, Father,” he cried out, “everything is possible for you. Please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.”

Ever feel like you're walking alone? Life's toughest journeys often feel isolating. When everyone else steps back, who steps forward? Discover the ultimate act of love—a journey only God could take, a path Jesus walked completely alone... for you. “The Jesus Way” reveals how far God will go to reach you. Join us as we explore the profound meaning behind Jesus' lonely walk to the cross—the journey...

We wrap up our series, Paradigm Shift, with what God wants our relationship with Him to be. This is at the core of everything we believe. Learn what God really wants from you.  Key Verse: John 14:27 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

We are wrap up the last major wrong way we tend to relate to God. This one can be a bit confusing, but I’m pretty sure you’ll get the point after Sunday. We aren’t supposed to do Life For God. Really? Key Verse: Proverbs 22:7 Just as the rich rule the poor, so the borrower is servant to the lender.

As we are trying to find the right Paradigm for what our relationship with God should be, we have discovered two that don’t work: Life Under God and Life Over God. We add another to the list: Life From God.  Key Verse: Luke 14:27 And if you do not carry your own cross and follow me, you cannot be my disciple.

We want the right relationship with God, because that’s the one that will truly bring peace. But in order to find the right way, we need to look at the wrong ways. We tackle what it means to do "Life Over God" and why it is so destructive.  Key Verse: Matthew 23:25 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the cu...

Many of us have pieced together our understanding of how to relate to God through bits of sermons, books, and personal experiences. We struggle with questions like: Is He my Father? My Friend? My Guide? And what exactly does He want from me? But what if there's a more transformative way? What if the joy and purpose we're seeking isn't found in relating to God as just a Father, Friend, or Guide, bu...

Join us this Sunday as we explore what it means to live a Life of Worship - it's bigger and more beautiful than you might think. Key Verse: Romans 12:1-2 

We wrap up Jacob’s story, and it ends as messy as it began. And guess where God is…again? Walking with Jacob through it all. I’d have walked away, but God just never does. Key Verse: Genesis 49:33 When Jacob had finished this charge to his sons, he drew his feet into the bed, breathed his last, and joined his ancestors in death.

We continue to follow that rascal Jacob through the Messy Middle of his life. Life is entering what should have been normal but turns out to be nothing normal at all…but maybe that is normal? Guess who still shows up? Key Verse: Genesis 35:11 Then God said, “I am El-Shaddai—‘God Almighty.’ Be fruitful and multiply. You will become a great nation, even many nations. Kings will be among your descend...

We continue Jacob’s Messy Middle story, and we finally get to meet the scoundrel of all scoundrels, Laban. What a roller coaster ride!

We walk through the Messy Middle of Jacob’s life now that he has made so big a mess that home is no longer safe for him. He’s made a mess as big as any we have ever made and yet, God meets him right in the middle of everything and brings hope. Key Verse: Genesis 28:16 Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I wasn’t even aware of it!”

This is actually part two of last week. Last week you could have walked away feeling like it's good to be a Rascal because God loves Rascals so I'm going to keep being a Rascal. But if you thought that, you definitely need the rest of the story. Key Verse: Matthew 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

Ever feel like your past mistakes disqualify you from God's purpose? In "The Messy Middle," we'll explore how God uses imperfect people to do extraordinary things. Through Jacob's story, we'll discover that your failures aren't the end of your story - they're just a chapter in God's incredible plan for your life. No matter how many times you've fallen, God can still use you, restore you, and lead...

We wrap up our series, In The Eye of the Beholder, and watch as once again, God displays His love for us by showing up in a way we never expected. Even when God says "Goodbye," He still finds a way to say, "Hi!"  Key Verse: Luke 24:48 You are witnesses of all these things.

God just never leaves us, even when we deserve it and have given God every reason to do so. He just keeps showing up for those He loves - which is each of us. This week, we see Israel at its worst, and guess who is still there? Key Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

We keep talking about how far God will go to bring the ones He loves home. You might not feel worth the love God has for you, but remember - it’s all In The Eye of the Beholder.  Key Verse: Exodus 40:38, 38 The cloud of the LORD hovered over the Tabernacle during the day, and at night fire glowed inside the cloud so the whole family of Israel could see it. This continued throughout all their journ...

This Christmas season, we’re diving into a truth that will change how you see yourself—and how you see the God who came to save us. Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “The value of a thing sometimes lies not in what one attains with it, but in what one pays for it - what it costs.”  Have you ever thought about how much you’re worth? Not in terms of what the world says, but in the eyes of the One who c...

It's Thanksgiving at Brooklife family style! Key Verse: Ephesians 4:32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
