Life is a journey with pitfalls and trials along the way. As we continue our Summer series, Worship and Wonder: Pictures of God in the Psalms, Noah Anderson looks at God as our Sun and the blessings He offers for those who trust Him.

If someone was to observe your life, what would they see? Don Pearson asks that pretty sobering question in our last teaching in Luke as we close out our Storytellers series, and encourages us that our actions and words tell a story. What story do you want your life to tell?

Jesus’ mission is to seek and save the lost! Don Pearson takes a deeper look at two of Jesus’ interactions with a crowd in Luke as He visited Jericho, and reminds us to have a heart that seeks Him. He sees our needs and has the power to transform our lives!

Don’t you wish that God wrote proof of His existence on a neon sign somewhere, so no one could miss it? Louie Konopka takes us on a journey through several different passages of Scripture to show us that God truly is right here with us. If we look for Him, we can’t miss Him!

Most days do you feel like you can tackle life on your own, or do you regularly hit your knees in prayer? Don Pearson looks at another parable in Luke that contrasts two people’s prayers, as he invites us to see our desperate need for the Savior.

What prayers have you stopped praying? Are there things you’ve brought to God for years that you feel like He still hasn’t answered; or maybe He hasn’t answered the way you had hoped He would? Don Pearson continues our Storytellers series in Luke with a parable that encourages us to not lose heart as we bring our heart’s desires to the Lord in prayer.

Do you find yourself asking God more often for what you want, or thanking Him for what He has already given you? Don Pearson jumps back into our Storytellers series in Luke with a story that highlights a characteristic that should mark our lives.

As our culture continues to become more and more socially isolated, the biblical model of community seems more and more foreign. Don Pearson continues our Storytellers series with three of Jesus’ teachings that invite us to pay attention to ourselves so we can better serve and love others.

How can we live in a world of chaos, suffering, and disillusionment with hope, joy, and peace? The closing paragraphs of Luke’s gospel start with the disciples in the chaos and disillusionment of Jesus’ death and end with them filled with joy and worship. What makes the difference? In our last week of The Greatest Story series, Don Pearson unpacks these paragraphs and points our hearts to the answ...

Have you ever heard a story too good to be true, then found out that it WAS true? This Easter Don Pearson shares the best part of The Greatest Story. What seemed like nonsense to a band of discouraged disciples, set the world on fire with the hope of the resurrection!

When Jesus entered Jerusalem it was to shouts of praise! The people called Him King and cried out, “Hosanna! Save us!” How quickly their shouts turned to “Crucify Him!” This week, Don Pearson looks at this stark change and invites us to focus not on the crowd, but on our Savior and the love He displayed for us on the cross.

How much would you endure to help someone? In part two of The Greatest Story, Don Pearson explores the excruciating reality of the coming hours for Jesus, as He prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. He had every reason to walk away, but He didn't. He faced it all for you.

The final week leading up to Jesus’ crucifixion began with crowds welcoming Him as a king. Don Pearson kicks off a 5-week Easter series exploring the significance of this moment as Jesus turned His focus to what lay ahead.

Living like Jesus means living counterculture. Everywhere you look people are stepping over each other to get ahead, competing with their neighbors to have the best stuff, and cutting corners to achieve the “easy life.” Don Pearson looks at another story Jesus shared with His disciples that helps us better understand what He means that “The first shall be last.”

God wants our hearts! We sometimes go through the motions, but miss the point. Don Pearson looks at an interaction between Jesus and the Pharisees in Luke and reminds us that loving God and loving others, isn’t just about following rules. It first requires humility and repentance.

It’s hard to look in the mirror and see our faults and shortcomings. Yet to truly grow as a Christian, we need to humbly confess our sins, repent, and accept the love that God so freely gives. Don Pearson examines the response of the older brother in the second half of The Prodigal Son story to help us see what it takes to truly know the love of the Father.

Last week, we learned about the joy when a lost coin and a lost sheep are found. How much greater is the joy when a lost son is found! This week Trevor Hunt focus on the third part of this parable and invite us into the celebration!

Have you ever found something that you thought was gone for good–maybe a set of keys or ring that has sentimental value? Steve High shares an incredible parable in our Storytellers series, that reminds us just how deeply we are loved and about the JOY God has every single time someone who is lost, is found!

Perseverance pays off! If you give up halfway up the mountain, you’ll miss the amazing view from the top. Tim Blazer reminds us in our next section of Luke, that following Jesus is not easy. We must count the cost, prepare our hearts, and remember that we don’t walk the road alone. The cost of discipleship is great, but the reward is worth it!

When was the last time you were invited to dinner? How about an eternal dinner? Don Pearson opens the next parable in our Storytellers series, inviting us to have a heart of humility, hospitality, and hope in response to God’s invitation. How will you respond?

Jesus’ heart is for us! He endured the cross because of His confidence in the Heavenly Father’s plan and because of His great compassion for us. Don Pearson continues our series in Luke with a story of an encounter Jesus had with a Pharisee, and encourages us to follow Jesus’ example as we live on mission for Him.

The topic of Hell is neither popular nor comfortable. As Don Pearson continues our series in Luke he helps us discover how even something so challenging points to the love and open arms of Jesus.

What do a seed, yeast, a viral video, or a small fire all have in common with the gospel? Don Pearson looks at two parables in our next section of Luke and encourages us to be diligent in spreading the gospel. Our work is not in vain.

Have you ever had to make a choice to do what was right, instead of what was expected? Don Pearson opens the next section in our Luke series and shares a story where Jesus had to make that exact choice in the midst of controversy.
