Alex has the pleasure of sharing the story of Jesus with us on Christmas Eve! We hope you'll listen and celebrate with us!

Hayden opens us up to the shortest chapter in the Bible, where we find that God's loyal love and faithfulness isn't just for Israel, but for all people; no matter where you're from, who you are, or what you've done. Thanks for listening!

Ricky asks us a really important question "why did you come?" as he continues the story of Christmas; looking at the wise men, Herod, the scribes, and Jesus and answering that question for all of them." So let's listen and ask of ourselves today!

Ricky closes Jesus' sermon with the big picture that Jesus is drawing his audience toward. In everything He's been saying He's been drawing His people into discernment and to actually make a decision. Thanks for listening!

Alex begins to wrap up the Sermon on the Mount in a section where Jesus encourages us to Ask, Seek, and Knock. But what are we asking for? Can we trust God that He's actually going to give us good gifts? Those are the questions we'll be examining today! Thanks for listening!

"Don't judge." We've heard it a lot. At one point it was the most quoted verse in the Bible! But what is Jesus actually saying? In this sermon Ricky unpacks this very popular section and helps direct us back to Jesus and His heart for us. Thanks for listening!

Alex takes us into a section of the sermon on the mount that hits home, addressing anxiousness and worry. We'll see how there is a needed perspective shift from our end that Jesus is trying to get our eyes to follow, so let's see how He does it! Thanks for listening!

Dakoda, one of our elders, carries us on in the sermon on the mount this week where Jesus is going to challenge our allegiance by asking us what we treasure. This passage is tough because it can come with a lot of baggage, but if we can set aside what we think is going on here, Jesus will challenge us to the very core with His words. Thanks for listening!

Ricky keeps us going into one of the most famous passages in the entire Bible, Matthew 6. It's one of the most famous because it contains the Lord's Prayer. So what is Jesus really trying to press into us in this section? Is this just a cool prayer to memorize and repeat here and there, or is there something we need to believe that Jesus is bringing out in this section? Thanks for listen...

Alex is getting us into a section of the sermon on the mount that we generally aren't super thrilled with reading, but need to hear because it does some demolition on our hearts. It's one of those sections where Jesus really exposes the depth of our sin, but praise be to God that He also provides grace and forgiveness! Thanks for listening!

Ricky continues our time in the sermon on the mount with one of the more confusing sections of the teaching. Jesus says that he fulfills the law, but then challenges people not to be lackadaisical in following the law. How does this make any sense? That's what Jesus has to say this morning. Thanks for listening!

Alex continues our series in Matthew by unpacking what it means to be the salt of the earth and light of the world. Does that mean more things that we need to be? Is this like a new personality test? Jesus is so wise in how he moves us toward Himself here, so thanks for listeng as we discover together!

Ricky moves into the first section of the sermon on the mount which we call the "beatitudes." This is a cool section of scripture because it's one of the first teachings that Jesus gives and it absolutely wrecks our preconceived notions about God and what He's come to do through Jesus. It'll make you go, "say what?" Thanks for listening!

Alex opens up our series on the Sermon on the Mount by narrowing in to just the first two verses of Matthew chapter 3. He shows how all of the old testament has been anticipating the arrival of the king who will sit on his mountain and rule with righteousness...enter Jesus. Thanks for listening!

Ricky closes our time in Acts by...not closing it? I'll let you figure out how that works. Thanks for listening!

In this weeks episode Alex preaches from Acts 28, unpacking Paul's continued Journey to Rome and the mishaps along the way. Sometimes these mishaps can feel like detours, and even in our own lives our best laid plans often go bad. Are the things that seem like detours to us really detours to our God? 

This week Ricky opens up Acts 27 which is a long and detailed section all about a stormy and difficult journey to Rome. In all these details though, what's the point? Why not just tell us how it all turns out? Well, perhaps the details are causing us to slow down and consider where God is at and what He's doing in all of this. Thanks for listening!

Ricky picks up our series in Acts with chapter 25. Here we'll see that the three people in this section are driven by three different internal drives, preservation, profitability, and the promises of God. What are you driven by? Thanks for listening!

Alex continues the story of Acts into chapter 26 where Paul makes his defense before King Agrippa, begging him to listen. So, how do we interact with people, what do we say, and how do we respond when sharing the good news of Jesus? Those are the questions we'll be unpacking this week! Thanks for listening!

Pastor Kent Sovine is a guest preacher once again this week, continuing our series in Acts! He has a big section of scripture but opens it up to reveal that, what we read, is a time when Paul was in a "desert," but remained to devoted to Jesus none the less. What gave him the strength to live in such a way? Thanks for listening!

Pastor Alex takes us into a weird story that shows up in Acts 23, but as he unpacks it for us we'll see that the resurrection of Jesus is as center stage; driving our character, our beliefs, and bringing comfort. Thanks for listening!

Eric, an elder, walks us through the net part of our Acts series where Paul finally has made it to Jerusalem and is preparing to share his story, shares it before the people there, and continues to share even in the face of adversity. What does that mean for us today? Thanks for listening!

Hayden, our high school director, continues our series in Acts, picking up in chapter 21. Here we'll see that Paul isn't just someone who believes the right things about God, but that he has been raised to new life in Jesus and it is what moves him forward in everything he does. So, are we being transformed by the life and love of Jesus? Thanks for listening!

Ricky walks us through Acts 20:17-38 where we see Paul having a conversation with the Ephesian elders, letting them know that he is saddened to depart from them, but his purpose drives him forward and should be the thing that drives our lives as well. Thanks for listening!

This week Alex continues our series in Acts, showing us how this section tells the story of a church that was on mission for Jesus. What could our story be, will you hear it? Thanks for listening!
