EVERYDAY

Josh Krehbiel // HEAP BURNING COALS When we step out of the seat of judge in the courtroom of heaven we are released from yokes of heaviness. We are not minimizing the sins that have been done against us, but choosing to practice forgiveness in the midst of hardship. As we do so, we exchange the lies we’ve learned for the truth of God and rest in His promise to defend us.

Josh Krehbiel // WISE IN OUR OWN SIGHT As followers of Jesus, we want to carry postures of humility rather than pride. We are discovering that we don’t have to have all of the right answers to follow in the ways of our Savior. We are learning to lean on our Beloved, knowing that in our weakness, He is strong.

Josh Krehbiel // WITH THE LOWLY Whether we’re seeking impact, notoriety, a bigger paycheck, or respect — it will never satisfy the deep longings of our heart. The Lord is inviting us to get off of the “ladder” and to enter into His way of life, saturated with humility and respect for all those we meet. Join us as we seek to become more like Jesus during our Romans 12 series. “Do not be haughty, bu...

Ben Peterson // LIVE IN PEACE BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS FOR THEY WILL BE CALLED SONS OF GOD.  God is crafting us into ambassadors of shalom as we continue to connect with our Father through prayer. When we pray, we develop His heart for those around us, trading our thoughts for His thoughts, and our ways for His ways.

BLESSING YOUR ENEMY IS SPIRITUAL WARFARE  “Loving your neighbor and hating your enemy makes you human. But loving the one who opposes you can only be done by the Spirit, which makes you a son.” When we bless our enemies, we are fulfilling the command of Matthew 6, where Jesus invites us to bring Heaven to earth. The concept of blessing rather than cursing is a reflection of the redemptive work of...

Jeff Mattheis // FIRST LOVE LOVERS WILL ALWAYS OUTWORK WORKERS  “Fruit-bearing ministry is us abiding in Jesus.” Far too often, we get caught up in the duty and busyness of life, rather than remembering to rest and abide in Jesus. We have the privilege to create space for the Lord in our everyday lives, watching as He turns simple moments into sacred ones, turning workdays into mission fields, and...

Josh Krehbiel // ABHOR AND CLING

Josh Krehbiel // LET LOVE BE GENUINE Pressure and proximity are quick to expose wounds and weak spots in our love. Far too often, we attempt to process these things without God! One of the most powerful prayers we can pray in times of intensity is, “Lord, I need help!”  As we learn to receive the Father’s love - His love that bears all things + hopes all things, we will be good stewards to pour ou...

WHAT DOES WORSHIP LOOK LIKE IN EVERYDAY LIFE? | INTRO TO ROMANS 12 x JOSH KREHBIEL Day after day, we are presented with neutral moments in life. Whether we’re eating breakfast, driving to work, or grabbing coffee with a friend - we have a consistent invitation to worship the Lord through the gifts of the spirit. God is looking for faithful friends who will honor Him in every moment, even in the mu...

On Sunday, we studied the story of Moses, Aaron and Hur in Exodus 17. In this transitional season for our community, we are actively choosing to reject passivity and hold each other up in a posture of worship until the victory is won! Mark Halstensgard // THREATS IN TRANSITION

Josh Krehbiel // THE TORN VEIL

Week after week, we continue to see catalytic moments as people encounter the truth that they are no longer slaves to sin, but they are now free to be righteous. This Sunday, we dove into Galatians 5, learning what it’s like to walk step in step with the Spirit and deny the desires of the flesh. Habitual sin, cycles of oppression, and constant fear are not your portion - God is zealous to make you...

The desire of God is that Kingdom Cities would be established throughout the earth + it’s our joy to make t...

IT'S YOUR DESTINY TO BE A SAINT FOR THE WORK! Regardless of our capacity, it's our destiny to be living each day on mission, lit with passion for God.
