The founders believed liberty was worth risking everything for, but they also understood it came with a hidden requirement. Two hundred fifty years later, that requirement matters more than ever.

Many Christians spend their lives measuring themselves by whether or not they are obeying all the rules. That’s not what Jesus intended.

Somewhere along the way, many of us began treating God's love and approval as something to earn. That assumption quietly shapes our relationship with God more than we realize.

We often think freedom comes from having fewer obligations, but some of the most meaningful moments in life begin when we embrace a weight we never asked to carry.

Long before the storm arrived, Noah made a decision about whose wisdom he would trust.

Chaos rarely arrives all at once. It often begins with ordinary choices that seem reasonable until the consequences finally surface.

The fires of life expose what we’re made of. When the pressure rises, will we protect our comfort and reputation or remain faithful when it costs us?

Discover five powerful catalysts God uses to grow our faith through a conversation featuring real stories and practical next steps for spiritual growth.

Most of us spend life focused on what to do and how to do it. But deep down, we still wonder why we’re here. This message explores what it means to live on purpose and how small acts of good might awaken the purpose you’ve been looking for.

We never know how one small invitation might change someone’s story… until we offer it.

Healthy relationships aren’t built on rules, but they can’t survive without a particular one. And it’s a rule that removes every loophole.

The secret to stronger relationships isn’t being understood, but choosing to put someone else first, even when they don’t deserve it.

Every conflict feels like it’s about what someone else did, but the real source runs deeper and it’s hard to admit.

The story of Jesus didn’t begin with confident believers. It began with disillusioned followers who walked away, only to be pulled back by something they couldn’t ignore.

The gap between skepticism and faith starts to close when Christianity is viewed through the lens of history. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and John Dickson, the story of Jesus is presented as something meant to be investigated, not avoided.

Jesus regularly challenged people’s assumptions about both wealth and eternity, and when he did so it revealed that the way we handle what’s temporary points to what we truly believe is permanent.

Many people experience faith primarily as something they attend or consume. But the moments that deepen faith most often come when we begin giving it away.

It’s easy to assume that prosperity leads to generosity. But many times the opposite is true—generosity becomes the turning point that leads to prosperity.

One year ago, we kicked off our generosity initiative across our Atlanta-area churches. What if we’re not just making progress—but crossing into a defining moment?

It’s not easy to hold two truths at the same time, especially when they shape how we see ourselves and God. This conversation explores a tension that feels both comforting and confronting, inviting us into a deeper, steadier kind of faith.

Why is it so hard to feel grateful when life is good, yet still so unsettled? In a world marked by beauty and burden, we often try to simplify what was never meant to be simple. Week 2 invites us to hold the tension and discover the steadiness waiting there.

Life is complex, yet we’re wired to simplify it. Faith challenges that instinct by inviting us to hold tension—between who we are, who we’re becoming, and how God meets us in both.

We often assume purpose requires perfection, while Jesus points to a kind of completeness that comes through growth, not flawlessness.

In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?

People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.
