Christ Journey Church

There is no absence of pain when it comes to divorce. It was an issue in Jesus’ time and it’s an issue in ours. Divorce disrupts the happy ever after many had planned on. God meant for marriage to work and to be good, but what about when it doesn’t work?

What do you do when something that started as pleasurable now feels like something you can’t live without? Today we’re talking about addiction, substance abuse, alcohol, drugs and opioids. How do we get in on the full life Jesus promises in a predatory and dangerous world?

When the fairytale life you imagined isn’t turning out as you expected, what do you do? Where can you find hope, help and healing when bearing the hunt of stigma and shame, rejection or worse? This series takes us into difficult topics that touch us in tender places, so all the more reason to open up the conversation and let Jesus show us it’s ok to not be ok.

Is there a way to affair-proof your life? Not just your marriage but your life? Our hope is that you may be equipped to prevent an affair from ever happening to you. If it has happened and you’ve been injured, we pray today’s message will help you find steps toward healing and recovery.

There are powerful skills we should be sharpening for business, yes – but what about the business of marriage? Raising kids? Friendships? Every interaction shows our capacity to love by how well we are able to exchange truth with each other. Jesus knew how to do that better than anybody, so today we’re taking a look at examples from his life that show us how to handle the truth in our relationship...

How do you find a soulmate? If only the question were as easy to answer as it is to ask! Marriage is God’s gift to humanity. It’s worth doing and really worth doing well. Today’s message is not just for those looking for a soulmate but for any of us desiring to have God redefine romance and show us His point of view. ChristJourney.org

How we received emotional health during our childhood years influences how we give emotional health during our adulthood years. Yet, our past hurts and present insecurities do not have to define us. An emotionally healthy man or woman seeking greatness listens first and seeks to understand in order to overcome and become an emotional healthy individual. ChristJourney.org

In a world that seems X-rated and upside down when it comes to sexual identity and family life, we still believe your family matters and you matter to God and us. You have worth! As parents, don’t underestimate your influence. You have an extraordinary part of every child's miracle. You can be a Miracle Parent.

Parents typically see life through years of adult experience children don’t possess. When hard times come, will they be ready to overcome? This message isn’t for parents though; it’s for every child interested in becoming an overcomer in life. God wants us to find full redemption in Christ and rise in life to overcome.

The longing for a place where we’re known, loved, and celebrated is one shared by all of us. Sometimes we get glimpses of it, but when it doesn’t happen we feel lonely, isolated and cheated somehow. We believe others have it and we wonder what it’s like. When the thought of home isn’t always a happy place, what then? Our desire as a church is to be a best friend for your family – the family to you...

As we get ready to enter into a new year, whether you were experiencing a high, or are in the valley of your low, there is more to your story and you can enter into this new year with plenty of hope. Our desire is that you would be encouraged and filled with hope.

Did you know? God is so deep that he is willing to meet us all the way down deep in the heart and soul of our sin. Did you know? God became human so he could die. In his own body, Christ suffered every punishment of sin – but he did it as an infinite God who loves us deeply.

Sometimes small can be pretty big. A smile can be small but lift a sad heart to higher ground when it's warm and real. God is at work all around us, so don't underestimate Him. Small is big when God is in it. But maybe it doesn't feel that way to you, what then?

If any season deserves a "Wow God!" - it's Christmas! The Almighty God made himself known as a newborn baby to be the solution to the sin problem in our world. Society was a mess then and it's still a mess now wouldn't you agree? The Good News is that God hasn't given up on us. ChristJourney.org

Deck the halls with boughs of crazy! It's the time for decorations, shopping and everything else that makes the season bright. Couldn't we all benefit from a little perspective to help us in the chaos? Practicing gratitude is how we do it!

We have health insurance, life insurance, dental insurance, and retirement benefits…just to name a few. Would it surprise you to know that a decision to follow Christ comes with a Benefits Package? See how you can accept the "Benefits of Belonging" that God has already offered.

You ever feel boxed in? Trapped by some situation? Today’s story is about a guy who was trapped in his own skin as a result of disease. He was shunned as an outcast and left in the margins of society– until he has an encounter with Jesus. Maybe it’s not disease that makes you feel trapped today, but whatever it is, invite Jesus into your box and see what happens!

You ever wanna ask God, "Why?" Jesus did it from the cross, so why wouldn't we? "Thank Full" takes us into the story of Habakkuk and how he wrestled with God over expectations he had about life, injustices and those who seemed to get away with evil. The many questions he asked might be the very ones we've all thought about. See how God answers.

This message concludes our series on the Book of 1 John. Over and over again, we are reminded that even though this very world we live in – as fallen, darkened, and troubled as it is – it's where God has chosen to make himself known through people like us. The last chapter of 1 John will yet again remind us to persevere because we've got what it takes to live an overcomer life, a life that makes a...

Many of us care about getting on the winning side of the equation – not only in a sport but also in life. Actually, you may be surprised by this, but so did John, the apostle of Jesus. What did he teach about victory and overcoming the world?

We all want to be real and for others to be real with us, but even in our closest relationships it's hard to speak the truth in love. This is what 1 John 4 invites us into – being real and connecting in real ways. But mixed in with those who seek to be real are also impostors; religious frauds who take advantage of people. What are we to do about it?

Inside all of us, there's a deep longing to be loved and cherished, to be seen and heard, to be respected and honored. If we're on the receiving end of that, it's easy to feel great about love; but when we're supposed to be on the giving end it gets more complicated. What if they don't deserve it? What if I find them annoying? What if they've ignored me or hurt me? How do we love our community the...

Life and culture in this world offers us several options that are best "thrown out" – they are seemingly harmless people or situations that when present, we better take a pass. The good news is that we have "sniff tests" available to help us in such moments. Do you know what they are?

Do you live a satisfied life? Are you satisfied with work, how you raise your kids, live single or love your spouse? Are you satisfied with how you use your money? Part two of "Our Community" message series challenges us to think differently as we do life down here.
