God is at the center of our good and good is at the heart of our God. Our lives are full when we see them as an expression of the goodness of God. The Chase ends when we love God first and best.

We live in a world obsessed with trying to be great. To break the grip of great on our lives, we must learn to trust that God's vision of greatness is greater than the world's.

Many of us chase after security and end up being overly attached to things that don't last. Jesus invites us to pursue "treasure in heaven"; things like being generous as we care for our neighbors near and far, sharing our time and material wealth and even being willing to suffer for Christ.

Social scientist Sherry Turkle says that talking to each other is "the most human - and humanizing - thing we can do." But in this digitally-driven age we seem to be losing our ability to do that. What can Jesus teach us about reclaiming the lost art, and power, of conversation?

Why is it that people seem so drawn to Jesus, but not always to us? What if living like Jesus is actually easier and more fun than we ever imagined?

We've all got them - weaknesses. We just don't like to admit them, and we'd rather not have to deal with them. But what if your greatest weakness could become your greatest strength?

They tell us that loneliness has reached epidemic proportions in America. Why do we find it so hard to make the kind of connections we long for and were made for? 2 Corinthians 5:16-21

How can we ever overcome the flaws and failures of our lives, and become the people we were meant to be and want to be? The answer is as simple, and profound, as turning our eyes upon Jesus. 2 Corinthians 3:6-18

Suffering often feels simply pointless. But what if there was an unexpected invitation to our unwanted pain? 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

Human beings should come with sign saying: FRAGILE! We are easily broken. But what if that break-ability could actually become a force for good in our lives and the world? 2 Corinthians 4:5-15

48 hours after Jesus' death, a room full of Jesus followers were feeling the brokenness of their lives and the world. Suddenly Jesus appeared, and what he said, and did, that evening changed everything for them. And it can do the same for us.

It's one of the most stinging attacks against Christianity. "The church is full of hypocrites!" Is it true? And if so, what can be done about it?

The exiles of Israel have returned home to rebuild Jerusalem, rebuild the Temple, worship their God and restart their society, and start their lives all over again.

God sends the prophet Haggai to intercept this pivotal moment in their history and in doing...

Why does God allow evil and suffering, and how we rise above it?

This sermon starts with a short film that depicts injustice. We do justice and righteousness when we seek God's heart and pursue his priorities for others and the world.

How do we deal with all the corruption that we find throughout our world and the corruption within our hearts? The prophet Micah helps us understand what's broken and how to live in response.
