Fresh Cup

Join us as we invite special guests Chris and Rosemary Cameron to discuss our unique and amazing role as stewards and co-tenders of His natural world. When we press in and take this role seriously we will find ourselves filled with awe and wonder and we intentionally live with curiosity. This spiritual practice not only benefits our relationship with God but also our marriages, our friendships, an...

After taking a week off to recover and renew, we are back reminding ourselves and you of God's love and His intention to see us flourish!  But blessed are those who trust in the Lord     and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank,      with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat     or worried by long...

Our final episode discussing the 3 great enemies of the soul: the devil, the flesh, and the world. Today we're talking about what our response is to the enemy of the world. The answer is to surround ourselves with the people of God because a fully devoted community, centered around the person of Jesus, is the antidote to the ways of the world and the pathway to seeing real change in our lives...

The third enemy of our soul, the world, can be an upside-down place. It's a place where the disordered desires of our flesh are normalized, where God's goodness is redefined into new terms, and where we trade the beauty of God's intentions for cheap imitations. Join us as we talk about how we reconcile God's love for the world (John 3:16) with His call to NOT love the things of...

How do we find victory in the battle we face over our flesh? The beast shrinks or grows depending on if we feed it or starve it. God invites into the process of our own spiritual maturity while taking on the heavy lifting himself. When we realize that this battle is not an equally matched game of tug-of-war, we can find healing, victory, and the new abundant life promised to us! Join us as we jump...

The devil doesn't prey on us with random lies. They are targeted at the brokenness of our human heart...playing on corrupt and disordered desires. This is what Scripture calls, "The Flesh". We like to think that we are the ultimate authority on ourselves and that we are in control of our actions. We don't often like being told what to do. However, too much of this kind of freed...

"Letting the Spirit control your mins leads to life and peace" Romans 8:6 Our battle against the devil begins in our mind. Therefore, we have a responsibility to curate our thought life. No one else can do it for us. How do we participate in the battle with the devil? First by REMEMBERING who God is, who we are, and where our power comes from. Next, we learn to curate our thoughts by sta...

There are so many misconceptions about the devil which lead to misconceptions about God and His power in our lives. What does Jesus say about the devil and how can we learn to combat his lies with truth?

Lent is about stripping away the things that have knowingly or inadvertently attached themselves to us and become cumbersome in our pursuit of Jesus. One of the most destructive attachments is that of the lies we believe. Lies about ourselves, others, or God Himself. Join us as we start to explore the source of those lies, the great enemies of our soul: the world, the flesh, and the devil.

Using Romans chapter 1 as our guide, we look at the downward sin spiral and how it can wreak havoc in our lives. Things that seem small and insignificant, if left unchecked, can lead down a trajectory we never wanted to go...and away from the abundant LIFE found in Jesus. This is why the season of Lent is so important to the rhythms of our life. It's an intentional time to ask God to search o...

We have a special guest this week, Travis Avila! Join us as we unpack 1 Corinthans 3 and the uncanny way it applies to following Jesus (and only Jesus) today. When the wisdom and leaders of the world fails us (because they inevitably will) how can we remain prisoners of hope...even if it looks like foolishness to the world?

Today we talk about the ancient practice of hospitality. Lives change around the table and the Gospel sometimes spreads one meal at a time. As we continue to ask ourselves how to navigate an often hostile and divided world, may we be known for making room at the table...especially for those who may not act, think, believe, or even vote like you.

We all know that the world has a tendency to peddle fear and anxiety. That is especially true in an election season when politicians and media can benefit from high levels of fear. How, as the people of God, can we remain a calm presence in an anxious world? How can we embody the unhurried, rarely bothered, peaceful presence of Jesus himself? 

In this episode we reveal and discuss our personal words for the year and also begin the conversation around what we hope the Church will be known for in 2024...especially as we enter another election season. May we be known exclusively for the Good News of Christ and not all the other things we are tempted to add on to it.  Below is the written prayer we share in this episode.  Gracious Heavenly...

Do you choose a word or a theme in the new year to help guide your growth? In this quick "espresso shot" episode we discuss our process to choose a word which will hopefully help you go into the new year with renewed focus and vision for where the Holy Spirit is leading you. 

As we conclude our Advent series, we discuss how Love binds it all together and is the action step to bring hope, peace, and joy to our world. When we choose to love like Jesus, we start to see ourselves as mini shepherds, pointing people to THE Good Shepherd. 

Joy and happiness are different, yet also intertwined. In this episode we unpack the ways moments of happiness help lead us into deeper joy that's rooted in an abiding relationship with Jesus. 

We were created for shalom (wholeness & peace), yet we are constantly surrounded by the opposite in our world. Join pastors David & Alanna as we discuss our response to  this and our unique call to be peacemakers. 

The season of Advent is all about waiting with expectation for God to move and it's actually the STARTING place for the Christian calendar. No one likes waiting even if it is an inevitable reality of life. However, what if rather than allowing waiting to induce impatience or anxiety, we welcomed periods of waiting to shape us and teach us to trust God deeper. Join us as we discuss what it loo...

Pastors Alanna Moine and David Hutsko discuss the ways Jesus wants to freshen our cups and encourage us to leave room in our cup for the Holy Spirit to pour new insight, wisdom and grace.
