The truth is a beautiful thing.  However, our culture so often puts our feelings above the truth.  What does Jesus say about this?  Does He care about our feelings at all?  The news is better than you could imagine.

In this special Sunday morning, Bryon unpacks what Matthew 5 and the Beattitudes has to say about how we are blessed to bless others!

In an age where our country continues to tear itself apart politically, how can Jesus bring healing? Ryan takes us through the Old and New Testament showing us man's desire to destroy, while they are loved by a God who works to put back together.

What is at stake in John's mind?  What is he so concerned about?  Our eternal life.

Tonight Ryan takes us through a LOADED part of 1 John chapter 2.  We learn about what it means to be a Christian and the things we'll face.

Bryon takes us through the next part of 1 John.  How can we obey God by loving our neighbor!

John begins his letter to a church that is in trouble, by reminding them who Jesus is.

There are three words that can change your life. "God. Loves. You." Ryan takes us through the Gospel in Revival Night 4.

How do you share the Gospel with your neighbor? Do you know the Gospel yourself?  Ryan tells us more in Revival Night 3.

How can we love out neighbor: by understanding what it really means to love Jesus.  Ryan tells us more in Revival Night 2.

Let's Gooo!!! Ryan kicks us off in the book of Colossians!

How do we bring our friends to Jesus?  We learn in the story of Mark 2 that Jesus is not only ready to give our friends exactly what they need, He wants that for us as well.

What does the Bible teach about Same Sex Marriage?  Tonight we have a Bonus Round from last semester's "FAQ's of Christianity" series to help students with this important topic.

In a very special night, we hear what Jesus has done in the life of Pastor Ryan.  How he was a lost church kid, and how God's grace drew him and saved his soul.

Beach Camp was AWESOME.  But the week before we left, Bryon preached a sermon on Luke 15 to get us ready for what was to come.  Bryon's sermon had not been published...until now...  Do you miss camp?? Take one more listen at what a great week it was!

Luke 18:9-14.  The idea of Lost and Found is all over the Bible.  On the last night of Beach Camp we see two people again.  Although these two are not related, they are just like the older and younger brother in Luke 15.  What does it mean to be lost?   And when we realize it, how can we be found?

Luke 15:25-32. We end our study of the Prodigal Son by seeing the story of the older brother.  This is the part of the story where Jesus wants us to listen the most carefully.  We must see the sinful heart of the older brother, so that we can truly see ourselves, and then, finally, we can see Jesus.

Luke 15:11-24. Now we look at Jesus' most famous parable: The Prodigal Son.  The first half of the story is devoted to the Father and his youngest son.  We see a lot of ourselves in this younger brother, but what we so often miss, is how much his Father loves him.

Luke 15:1-10.  What does it mean to be lost? What does it mean to be found?  This summer at Beach Camp we went through Luke 15 and the story of the Prodigal Son.  But before we get to Jesus' most famous parable, he lays the groundwork with two earlier stories: The Lost Sheep and The Lost Coin.

Who are the people in our life that are the hardest to love? Why is it so hard? In Acts chapter one, Jesus sets the tone for the New Testament Church in one of the most challenging, and beautiful statements of all time.  He also reminds His people that in Him, they will have all the help they need.

In one of His most famous parables, Jesus speaks about 4 different types of soil.  These 4 soils represent the 4 different types of hearts.  The question is, what does the soil of our heart look like?

What does the Bible teach about abortion?  With more news every day and controversy swirling about Roe V. Wade, Ryan walks us through history, science, and Scripture to show us what God says in His Word about this very important issue.

Tonight we hear from local politics expert and special guest Brice Duke!  We discuss how local politics is the real place for the Christian to start!

Bryon closes our series by sharing his testimony, and reminding us that even though we may not always find answers to our questions, we have God and the testimony God gives us. This testimony is something we are called to share to invite others to experience a relationship with Jesus!

Sleep takes up 30% of our lives, but when is the last time you heard a sermon about it?
