Connections

In the WHY? Series, we step back from simply asking what Christians believe and do to explore why we follow Jesus, why we need one another, why Jesus is forming us, and why he sends us into the world. We explore first our foundations. So we ask today “Why is Christianity centered on Jesus?” Is he primarily a teacher, an example, a Savior—or something even bigger? In this episode of Connections, we...

Who is in charge of your life?  Pastor Zach makes the case that we need to surrender our own authority and instead yield our lives to God.

The disciples asked Jesus to teach them to pray. Jesus began teaching them, "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come."  What did he mean, "Your kingdom come?"

Pastor Zach sits down with the Executive Director of First Loved Ministries' Rachel Delgado. It was a powerful and moving discussion of God's love, presence, and healing. 

As people with the Spirit of God living within us, we a being made in the image of Christ.  Kingdom people look like Jesus!

The King Has Come! But what does that mean as citizens of that kingdom?  Why are Christians in some parts of the world more "alive" in their faith than others?  The answer may be in allegiance.  Listen in.

We continue our wonderful conversation with Dr. Britany Janiszewski, President of Visible Music College, by exploring how our worship, particularly our engagement with music during our gatherings, shapes us as disciples and apprentices of Jesus. It is a deeply impactful and beautiful discussion that will hopefully lead us all to reflect on our own impact and discipleship of one another during our...

We have a wonderful 2 part conversation with Dr. Brittany Janiszewski, the President of Visible Music College in Millington, Tennessee. We discuss today in part 1, "what is worship?" A seemingly simple question, but it leads us down a deep and rich rabbit whole. So join us as we explore what it means to worship for all it's worth.

Christian faith doesn't happen in a flash it is a journey.  Just as the Israelites journeyed in the wilderness Paul encourages us to continue to allow our faith to grow.  Unlike the Israelites though, he asks us to grow without the crumbling.

The Christian Life is meant to be lived in unity not uniformity.  We all have different backgrounds, different personalities and come from different environments.  We are not the same.  But we have the same God and living in Him brings us all together not apart.  That is the unifying purpose He has brought us to.  Let us rejoice!
