When you think about the Sabbath, what comes to mind? Did you know that the word Sabbath means “rest?” Don Pearson uses a passage from Luke to remind us that God created us and knows what we need. He longs for us to find rest from this crazy chaotic world. But not just rest from work–He wants us to find our rest in Him!

Have you ever felt like an outcast, unloved, or alone? Don Pearson invites us deeper into the healing of the Leper in our Storytellers series to understand the depth of Jesus’ heart for us. Just like the leper, Jesus wants to touch us and make us whole.

He is risen! He is risen, indeed! Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection changed everything. Because of His great love for us and sacrifice on the cross, we are free from the chains of sin and death. We’re excited to worship, learn, and celebrate with you this Resurrection Sunday!

Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” Can you hear the cheering crowd as Jesus entered Jerusalem? How quickly those cheers turned to jeers and shouts for His crucification! As we look ahead to Easter, let’s take time to reflect on the suffering savior, Jesus Christ, and what led Him to the cross.

We all long for a miracle–healing for our bodies, relationships, and minds. Jesus has the power to work miracles today; yet sometimes He doesn’t. Don Pearson continues in our Storytellers series and reminds us that the miracle we need most has already happened. Salvation is available because of what Jesus did on the cross.

What holds you back from believing that Jesus is who He says He is and that He has the power to truly set you free? Trevor Hunt challenges us to overcome our doubts and fears so we can experience the life-changing joy found in the good news of the gospel.

When someone cuts you off in traffic, how do you react? Do you immediately think of them as a dearly loved son or daughter of God, created in the image of God? Kurt Dillinger from Life International reminds us that ALL human life, from the womb to the grave, is sacred. He invites us to be life-givers in all of our relationships and reflect God’s love to those around us.

We all doubt sometimes. Life is hard. Relationships are hard. We are tempted at every turn to get angry or shut down. Ben Phebus invites us to follow Christ’s example in His third temptation by speaking Scripture into our doubt and trusting God’s plan.

How do you grasp for power? Do you use aggressive or passive power to shortcut pain or roadblocks in your life? Don challenges us to instead walk in faith and submit to God’s authority in every area of our lives.

What are you tempted by? Do you struggle to keep spiritual matters a priority while spending time, energy, and resources on the material pleasures of life? Don uses Jesus’ example in Luke 4 to encourage us. We can’t do it perfectly like Jesus did, but He invites us to choose faith instead of giving power to our pleasures.

Can God use our past? The sins we hope no one ever finds out about? The hard things we are called to endure? As Don Pearson explores Jesus’ genealogy in Luke, we’ll see how God’s plan, protection, and provision gives us hope and builds our faith.

Amidst all the conflict and questions surrounding Israel have you taken the time to share the good news of salvation? Covering current events and the history of Israel, Don Pearson invites us to find lasting peace in Jesus.
