You've heard the carols about singing angels and visiting kings. But did we get it wrong all these years? Maybe the Christmas story was actually pretty ordinary. Join us to see the familiar story from a new perspective. Then learn the one thing Jesus' mother did that we can copy, that opens the way for God to do extraordinary things. 

Women didn't have much standing in society in Jesus' day, and what one woman did for him was considered totally unacceptable to most people. But not Jesus himself. This Sunday, we'll look at how her feet actually show us where our place with Jesus should be. 

When you think of Jesus, it helps to remember he is fully God and fully human. He's a wholly, integrated human. As we continue our Simply Jesus series tomorrow, we'll look at what that really means. And, by looking at what Jesus did-- and did not do-- we'll learn what can lead each of us to wholeness as well.

It's typical to stop and think of what we're thankful for this time of year. The ten lepers Jesus healed in Luke 17 were thankful as well, but it was more than being thankful that made one man stand out from the rest. As we continue our message series Simply Jesus, we'll see two special characteristics of that man. Plus, we'll give you two definitions to consider in this season of gratitude.

When you think of Jesus, you probably don't think of him calling people names. But that's what he did in the passage we'll study tomorrow. Join us as we learn how he was testing a woman who came to him and what he's teaching us through her story. 

We can't wait to follow up our Beautiful series with a brand new series all about Jesus! Simply Jesus kicks off with Pastor Jeremy showing us what Jesus was passionate about here on earth and what He values. It's likely no surprise that those things may contradict what our society values today. We'll also look at what it really means to grow as people who follow Jesus, and we'll learn the one word...

It's no secret that we are all intuitively drawn to beautiful things - beautiful people, beautiful music, beautiful food and the like. This week, Pastor Jeremy helps us see why cultivating beauty is so important in the first place. What is our role and how can it help others see the pinnacle of beauty itself? Join us as we close out our Beautiful message series.

We've looked at God as creator and explored why we should care about beauty. We've studied how beauty was fractured and how God redeems it. As we near the end of our Beautiful series, let's turn our attention to the beauty of God himself. He's holy, glorious, and majestic to be certain. But what is it about God's beauty that helps us when we are at our weakest and most vulnerable and can transform...

God gifted us with beauty everywhere! But it's not always easy to see and enjoy it in everyday life. Join us to learn seven practical things you can do to help you truly enjoy this gift from God. Then see two big reasons why you should enjoy beauty.

Last week we saw how humans forever fractured the beauty God created. We can't fix it ourselves, but there is a way to redeem beauty in us. Join us as we look to the book of Ephesians for some answers. We'll see how the master artist, God, works to restore his masterpieces.

We’ve spent the last five weeks talking all about beauty, but we need to talk about something else. The reality is, life is not always beautiful. This week, we’ll study the devastating choice that forever fractured true beauty and how we still struggle with it today. Plus, the answer to still enjoying beauty as God intended.

So far in our Beautiful series, we've seen a lot of things, such as where beauty comes from and different forms of beauty. This week we'll answer a fundamental question: How do you define beauty? Can you even do it? Join us as we consider three core elements that help us find the answer.

We enter week four of our Beautiful message series with a question- Is beauty worth it?  This week, we'll examine an exchange between Jesus and a woman that many considered shocking, wasteful, and excessive. But Jesus saw it differently; he saw it as beautiful. Learn what Jesus had say about the pursuit of beauty and why it's worth our time today.

Our society certainly has some ideas about the beauty of the body, but our bodies can actually tell us much about God, who created them! Join us to see how every single person plays a role in revealing the mystery of God to those around us. Plus, three ideas about our bodies that might just challenge how we see others and relate to them moving forward.

When you think of beauty, do you use your imagination beyond painting, poetry, literature, or music? This week, we'll expand our idea of what is beautiful when we meet an artist of the Old Testament. Join us to see why beauty doesn't always have to be practical, efficient, or frugal.

We're so excited to launch our new message series, Beautiful. We're heading back to the beginning, in Genesis, to see how God reveals himself to us. What allows us to appreciate beauty? Why do we long for things to look beautiful? Where are unexpected places we find beauty? This is a message series you won't just hear, but also experience.

Our final message in the Acts message series takes us to Rome, where Luke ends the book with a cliffhanger of sorts. It might leave us asking, "And then what happened?" Join us as Pastor Jeremy explains the next chapter in this story that God has always been writing.

The Apostle Paul was beaten, stripped, imprisoned, run out of towns, and chased by a mob. That's a really rough spot, and he no doubt felt discouraged. While we may not have all those things happen to us, we feel discouragement sometimes, too. What should you do when it hits? The answer can be found in Acts 18. Join us as Pastor Jeremy shows us three actions to model.

Just because you follow Jesus doesn't mean everyone you know does-- or wants to. So how do you practically engage with people who are skeptical, agnostic, or just not interested in Jesus for intellectual reasons? Join us as Pastor Jeremy shows us how Paul did it in Acts 17 and how we can do the same thing.

We all know it takes all kinds of people to make things work in this world, and that was true for the church at Philippi. In fact, you can't make up the cast of characters who started the church there! Join us when we hear how the gospel brought seemingly random people together and how that levels the playing field for all of us today.

We all know churches today are not immune to conflict, and neither was the early church. This week, we'll look at a big conflict that arose in the church and how it was resolved with grace and truth. Join us to see why conflict isn't always bad, the right way to handle it, and how it leads us to the cross.

We see examples of a post-Christian world all around us, but what exactly does post-Christian mean? Join us when we unpack that and explore why our society is so similar to the cities Paul and Barnabas visited in Acts. Plus, learn the number one thing we need to do to partner with the mission of Jesus in today’s world.

The first mission trip is underway as Paul and Barnabas set off to take the news of Jesus to the ends of the earth in Acts 13. We can learn so much about participating in the mission of Jesus by following their example - everything from the approach these leaders used to how they handled rejection.

Jesus commanded his disciples to take his message to Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. We've arrived in our Acts message series at the moment when phase three of this mission launches. Join us when we see exactly how it happens. Plus, learn three key things the church at Antioch got right that make it a church to look up to today.
