Framed. Part 11. The framing we hang in our view will bring about its own outcome. How we frame ourselves, how we frame God, how we frame experiences, how we frame people, even how people try to frame us, all become the gallery that fills the vision of our lives. It can be one filled with light and color, or one filled with shadows and darkness, but the view is ours to hold. Join us today as we co...

Intentionally God. As we conclude our Learner, Lover, Leader series, we do so by looking at two leaders that we might not automatically categorize as such. Much like Nehemiah, they had challenges and were faced with opposition, but they chose, despite everything that was thrown at them, to live by this creed, “let it be done to me according to Your word.” For more information and resources, visit...

Framed. Part 10. Have you ever tried to talk God out of something? Have you ever prayed and prayed and prayed and prayed without hearing the answer you wanted or even answer at all? Join us today as we explore the stories of several Old Testament characters. Characters, that if we’re honest, often mirror own stories, and in the end point to a God who’s in the midst of them all, never leaving, nor...

Framed. Part 9. The Royal Gorge Bridge is a marvel of engineering. Built in 1929 for a mere $350,000, it is one of the highest suspension bridges in world. Built into the surrounding granite walls, it is made out of steel and is covered with wood planks. In the 1980’s it was renovated with new cable anchors and suspension rods. And since its opening, park officials estimate that more the 26 millio...

Intentionally God. We live in a world of constant threats, most of them hypothetical projections of events that have yet to occur, seeking to stop the good work we’re doing. For Nehemiah, the threats were just as real, just as loud, and happened just as frequently, but he refused to cease in building the wall. Join us as we see the courage Nehemiah led with to not only continue to do the work, but...

Framed. Part 8. From manger to cross, cross to grave, and grave to resurrection, the goodness of God is lived and bled for rest for our souls. Regardless of our experiences, other stories concerning God, and actions of His followers, His intentions towards us are perfect. Perfect with goodness, prefect concerning evil we may experience, perfect when we walk through the shadows, perfect when we fac...

Framed. Part 7. Have you ever seen an image that’s been zoomed so far in on that what it is has become unclear? If not, a quick Youtube search will show you hundreds of things, that in the right perspective we realize immediately what they are, but when hyper focused in on, we lose the clarity we once had. This isn’t just something reserved for an afternoon on Youtube though, it’s something we do...

Intentionally God. Nehemiah used the clout of the king to establish his credibility with those around him, but the wall still needed to be built. The materials had been supplied, and the plan was set, but someone still had to do the hard work of constructing it. Join us tonight as we look at the people who made this happen, how they intentionally “set their minds to do the work” that was in front...

Framed. Part 6. A.W. Tozer said, “what comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” In other words, how we frame God is so important in light of the window through which He’s framed Himself. Join us today as we look at some of the ways we’ve framed Him, correctly or incorrectly, and how the truth may be trapezoidal, not square. For more information and resour...

Intentionally God. Culture tells us that we’re all good enough just like we are. It’s a phrase that sounds right, but as we’ll see, it is a phrase that seeks to reduce the objective standard in the attempt to silence the scream of our own human insufficiencies. Join us as we look at how Nehemiah found himself in this very place and how he used to the clout of the king to lead out of it. For more i...

Framed. Part 5. Not only are there other things within our frames vying for attention, trying to speak louder than the voice of Christ, but there are also things we allow into the frames that have the potential to shape the future. Join us today as we look at how through His intentional sacrifice, Christ frames our future, and the power we now have in the present to do the same. For more informati...

Framed. Part 2. In the world of cinematography, frames are used to achieve the perfect shot for the scene. Whether it’s a single shot, a crowd shot, an insert shot, or an over the shoulder shot, directors use them all to create the world they want you to see. Join us as we look at how God uses this concept as well, and how we’re framed in His shot. For more information and resources, visit www.cro...

Intentionally God. Today we discuss one of, if not, the most important elements of leadership…credibility. Join us as we dive into Acts and look at how the Apostle Paul demonstrated this in his own life and how we can use his example in ours.

Framed. Part 1. Frames change ordinary objects into special objects. When placed inside a frame, an ordinary door knocker is turned into a special one. An ordinary group of rocks is turned into a special group of rocks. An ordinary person is turned into a unique one, one with meaning and purpose for their life. Join us as we look at how we’ve each been Framed by God and how special we are to Him....

Intentionally God. Today we discuss the three “P’s” of leadership, Persuasion, Passion, and Personhood.
