What’s the best gift you’ve ever received? If you’re a follower of Jesus, the answer is the grace of God. And if you’re not a follower of Jesus? Well, have you ever wondered why Christians make such a big deal about grace? Join us as we continue to explore the Apostle Paul’s brilliant letter to the church in Ephesus, exploring in this sermon the radical gift of God’s grace. Sermon Notes: https://w...

Could it be that the Son of God also longed for those places where He could hear the Father whispering to Him: I am with you. I struggle to hear God's voice. But I regularly hear it most in 2 places. From His Word. And from His people. And if you feel like you’re drowning in the chaos. You are not alone. And you need it, too. His Word. And His people.  Imagine the chaos. Maybe it’s a relationship....

And why, why is it never too early to remember your Creator? Because time is coming for you. And as uncomfortable as that makes us, or as painful as that may be, the better we are at reckoning with that idea, no matter how old or young we are…the better we are with facing it head on, with confronting it, owning it …the wiser we will be today.  Sermon Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/48899839 22...

There’s nothing really new in the world. The moment progress is felt, the same pains, the same injustices, the same wickedness rear their smug faces.  We take two steps forward and two steps back. Some want to say things are always getting worse while others are saying things are getting better, and then the weather changes and so does both of their stances.   What do we do when it feels like maki...

The Bible teaches that God made a world of abundance. That if we look at the Garden, you and I were created for a world without lack, where we had everything we needed and more. And even though our world is now broken, and our attachments are now broken, we can still enjoy God’s gift with gratitude. This is the theme of these final verses. Eat, drink, and be merry. Enjoy your work. And enjoy His g...

What happens when all you ever wanted is not enough? What do you do when the thing that gives you meaning and satisfaction goes up in smoke? The Old Testament book of Ecclesiastes forces us to look at our futile attempts to find meaning and satisfaction. It pokes holes in our logic, unmasks our false pretenses, and forces us to consider things we would rather not. But after deconstructing our hope...

It is so easy for us to embrace a misguided religious faith founded in a religious consumer mentality. Christian faith is desirable to us as long as it is comfortable and helpful to us. When it helps us form friendships or our involvement in religious services provides a sense of connection or provides us with great business contacts, or helps our kids or teenagers make better choices and find bet...

You’ve taken your unfulfilled longings -- your grief and your desire. Whatever it is. And you’ve brought them to Jesus. You’ve asked Him to intervene. And whether or not He’s answered you in the way you wanted Him to. You’ve met Him. Now here we are. Every one of us. Somewhere between meeting Jesus. And the fulfillment of all of His promises to us. Every Christian is on that path. Between saying y...

It is easy to miss, in our polarized world, that Jesus seems to have intentionally drawn together people from across ideologies and cultures of the world to be worshippers. Jesus is not after ideologies. He is after worship in spirit and truth. This is Jesus’ language for a new heart that only the Spirit can give, a new obedience to the truth that Jesus is Lord of all. Does Jesus have our worship?...

We all know and feel the dissonance in our bodies and souls between who we are and who we long to be. And that’s because we know and feel the need to be born again of water and Spirit. And we know and feel that we must be born again because we must be born again. With a wide-open heart, pledge your full allegiance to King Jesus above all else and surrender to his good, true, and beautiful reign ov...

Few stories are as complex and perplexing like Jesus clearing the house in the temple. Should Christians see this as something only Jesus does? We clearly are called to embrace Him, but does that mean we follow Him in this kind of zeal? And what does that look like?   Join us as we continue to see how the Word became flesh and crashed the party. Sermon Notes: https://www.bible.com/events/48843997...

In John 2, by turning water into wine,  Jesus draws his disciples to a greater faith. They learned about the kind of king Jesus is and the kind of kingdom he means to bring. It is easy to forget when the wine is flowing, that it can’t flow forever. What do we do when the wine runs out? When life’s circumstances let us down? John tells us in that moment to trust Jesus. When our wine runs out, we ar...

“I am in a season of deconstruction.” It is likely that you have either read, heard, or said these words in recent months. The deconstructing of faith is a popular practice these days. But what is it exactly? For some, it is an opportunity to live their authentic life free of all moral and religious authority. For others, it is a sincere attempt to determine if their faith has been formed by the w...

I believe we live in a time of great skepticism and growing mistrust and yet skepticism of truth claims and the challenge of discerning what is true and what is not- is not restricted to our modern time. Through John’s witness, we see that from the opening verses of the bible through the very end, the story of God we encounter is one who greatly loves this broken material world. Let’s remember tha...

Our Shepherd gives us eternal life, so we will never perish. And no one can snatch them out of His hand. Or the Father’s hand. Because it’s the same hand. And I pray that you would feel it right now if you’re one of His sheep. May you feel Him holding you. If you feel alone. If you feel lost, if you feel angry, if you feel disappointed or depressed. Do you see His hand encompassing you? If you fee...
