One of the interesting things about the Easter account is that so many of the people in the story missed what was right in front of them. They couldn’t see it. But once the reality of the resurrection became clear to them, they couldn’t see anything else.

The gap between skepticism and faith starts to close when Christianity is viewed through the lens of history. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and John Dickson, the story of Jesus is presented as something meant to be investigated, not avoided.

Jesus regularly challenged people’s assumptions about both wealth and eternity, and when he did so it revealed that the way we handle what’s temporary points to what we truly believe is permanent.

Many people experience faith primarily as something they attend or consume. But the moments that deepen faith most often come when we begin giving it away.

It’s easy to assume that prosperity leads to generosity. But many times the opposite is true—generosity becomes the turning point that leads to prosperity.

One year ago, we kicked off our generosity initiative across our Atlanta-area churches. What if we’re not just making progress—but crossing into a defining moment?

A no doesn’t have to be a dead end to our faith. As painful and challenging as no’s can be, they can also serve as a gift to us. In this message, we explore how.

Getting a no is difficult. It’s made exponentially harder when it seems like everyone else around us is getting a yes. But there is a way to find purpose in our pain and stay the course, even when it feels like God says no.

Everyone will face moments when God says no to something they want. It even happened to Jesus. Through his response, we learn the way to respond when it feels like God is saying no.

We often assume purpose requires perfection, while Jesus points to a kind of completeness that comes through growth, not flawlessness.

In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?

People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.

We take values like human dignity, compassion, and justice for granted today, but they only feel obvious because the church first introduced them.

Christmas marks the arrival of a solution to an unsolvable problem—how to stand before God when obedience isn't good enough.

No one was looking for God to appear in person, yet Jesus came to make the invisible God unmistakably known.

It’s common to feel a tug-of-war between inner anxiety and recognizing God’s nearness. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and Steve Cuss, we’re invited to consider some false needs that may be steering our reactions.

First-century Israel expected a king who would overthrow Rome. Jesus offered a kingdom far bigger—and he had to redefine “Messiah” before they could see it.

We’re all going to follow someone or something. If not Jesus, then who?

Our problem often isn’t that we ask God for too much but rather that we settle for too little.

Following Jesus requires that we love God and love our neighbor as ourselves. This begs the question of who does and doesn’t fall into the neighbor category. According to Jesus, selective compassion is not an option.

We set out to build a church where the convinced and the curious could belong.

It’s one thing to trust God when you’ve lost control; it’s another to resist acting like God once you’ve gained it.

When life goes from bad to worse, will you simply react—or respond as if God is still with you?

Your life isn’t defined by what’s been done to you, but by how you choose to respond—especially when every instinct says to react.
