We've finally arrived at Thanksgiving week! Thanksgiving is something that, somewhat ironically, we tend to take for granted. But even a passive reading of Scripture will reveal that thanksgiving is an essential part of the Christian walk. In fact, it is nothing less than essential. Thanksgiving seems like a passive thing; something to do when there's nothing left to do. But thanksgiving is more p...

When God called Moses to lead the people of Israel to the Promised Land, Moses felt the weight of that call deeply. He knew he did not have the strength to do it himself, and so he asked God who He would send with them into the wilderness. God's answer was, of course, God Himself. We desperately need the presence of God in our lives, but how desperately do we actually seek that presence? Join Past...

The church. It's a common phrase, tossed around by people all the time. But what is the church, really? The church, of course, is made up of people. While that may sound like a basic assumption, it's easy to lose sight of just how important conscious pursuit of the people of God is to our walk with God. In this series called Pursuit, we're looking at the things we chase after in life, and what we...

On Sunday, we planned to continue our discussion of the pursuits of the heart by learning about pursuing the plan of God. However, our service was interrupted by a word from God and a spontaneous prayer and worship session for our country.

We have 56 days left in the year 2020. Many of us are ready for this year to end and to move onto greener pastures. But the way we end the year is just as important, if not MORE important, than how we started it! So how can we finish well and ensure that we're not carrying our struggles of this year into the next? The key to having a truly new year is letting go of the things that have built up in...

We're all chasing something in life. Whether it's money, acceptance, love, thrills, or otherwise, the human spirit has been designed to pursue something. Unfortunately, that drive to pursue generally sends us after things that ultimately are unfulfilling, and possibly even harmful. What are you pursuing, and it is truly what you need? Join Dr. Mark Lantz as he explores the things that so easily gr...

Many people are scrambing to find meaning in what feels like a meaningless slog of a year. Jobs have been lost, relationships broken, families divided, and so much more. Many of us would like to completely erase this year and forget that it ever happened. Unfortunately, we're not able to change the past. However, we do have a direct effect on where we go from here. The way we end 2020 has nothing...

As we embark on our journey into 2024, we look forward to a completely blank canvas. However, there are obstacles standing in the way of where God wants you to go this year. All you have to do is reject their influence and move forward into the promise that God has placed in your heart. Join Dr. Mark Lantz as he looks to the story of Joseph to explore these obstacles in part 1 of Just Say No.
