We all want to advance and move forward in life, but there are a few pieces of essential equipment you need if you are going to be prepared for what God has planned for you.

We were not made to stagnate and be stuck. God wants you to move forward and step into the plans and purposes He has for you. How can you take the territory that God has already prepared?

There is a difference between believing in God and truly knowing God. But how can you know someone you can't see? 

Life can get dark at times. We face sickness, job loss, relational drama and so many other situations that can make it easy to lose hope. What does the darkest moment in history show us about a light that always breaks through?

Life is filled with difficult decisions and unclear direction. We don't always know where we should go or what we should do. Even with the confusion that life brings, there is one thing we absolutely must see clearly if we want to see our lives clearly.

What lengths would you go to for the people or person you love the most? Would you go to those same lengths for your relationship with God? Our lives are measured by how we love. And love won't fail because God makes a way. 

Why does it feel like hope can sometimes feel like making a wish? Wouldn't it be better if hope was something practical or something real that you could hold on to? Perhaps we have had the wrong definition of hope the entire time.

There are many times in life when it feels like our faith does not work. We believe God to move or show up and then are left disappointed when it does not work out. How can we develop a faith that never fails no matter what we face?

Our leaders often fail us. Whether they are parents or politicians, our leaders make promises they fail to keep and offer hope they fail to fulfill. While every king does fall short, there is one King coming who fulfills every promise he has ever made and more.

Election seasons may be the most divided seasons in our nation. As our world continues to fracture more and more, is it possible for a group of people to show the world something it does not have but desperately needs?

We live in one of the most politically divided times in our country's history. How should Christians think about their own political engagement and participation?

  Anywhere you look in our culture today, there are opportunities for worry and anxiety. It could be the economy, work, or an upcoming election. We are commanded to free our lives from all fear but how do we actually do that?

Many of us can remember the first band we fell in love with or that one song that we love to listen to on repeat. Music has always been a big part of the human experience. But how does God use music to change our lives and even the world?

On a regular basis, we encounter people who have very different opinions and perspectives from us. These encounters can sometimes go from discussions to full blown debates. How can we engage people we disagree with or who may even be wrong in a way that ultimately wins?

There is a lot of hate in our world whether it be in politics, our social media feeds or even our own families. What is going on and how do we fix it?

Politics may be the most controversial and contentious aspect of our culture right now and it can feel like there is no way to win the game we find ourselves in. What does Jesus have to say about politics and how might it change the way we engage the politics of our day?

Choosing to follow Jesus will put you at direct odds with the culture around you in real ways. Instead of seeing this as a problem, how can we use this as an opportunity to engage the world in ways that bring real change?

Everyone has an idea of what the dream life looks like. At the same time, we often go looking for the life we want in the wrong places. What is the life we were made to live and how can we step into it today?

Do you fear man? Or do you fear God? This weekend we welcome Jason Soderstrom as our guest speaker to unpack what the fear of God is, and how it should transform your life and what others think of you.

A lot of our daily lives can feel very routine and mundane. What we may not realize is that the seemingly random and little coincidences of our lives may be our biggest opportunities to make an impact in the world.

While most days we may have a handle on things, there are times when life gets out of control. What is the one thing we must absolutely make sure we do not lose to keep our lives on track?

There are seasons in life that can be brutally hard. These are the times we want to quit. When you start to understand the story God is writing with your life, you have every reason to trust Him and look forward to the future.

Stories are a huge part of the human experience. Whether it's sitting down with a book, watching a movie, or just hearing someone share, we love stories. Sometimes our own life story can feel confusing, stuck, or just plain meaningless. While a lot of life may feel that way, what if there is much more to our story that we even realize? 

We welcome guest speaker, Pastor Tim Celek, and celebrate our last week of going through the book of Philippians. Philippians 4:14-19: Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; for even...
