The Biblical account of the woman caught in the act of adultery is one of the most memorable stories in the New Testament. It powerfully illustrates who God is, who we are, and how we relate to God without Christ--either by breaking the law like the adulterous woman or manipulating it for our own purposes like the Pharisees.

"In the book of Philippians, Paul continues to dismantle the idea that sinless perfection can be achieved through good works. Instead, he points to Christ as the measure of true perfection, and the pursuit of Him, as only means of attaining the call of a loving God on our lives. You don’t want to miss this!

Many Christians today subscribe to the idea that their goal is to get to heaven. What if scripture showed us an alternative view? We look at the early church to see how they viewed and acted out mission.

As we celebrate three years as a church, there are two questions before us. These are the same two questions Paul asked when Jesus revealed Himself to him. Listen in as we talk through the implications of asking these questions and seeing how God answers them.

With such a great persecution on the horizon for the church, why should they stick it out? Because, there is an even greater promise that is in store for all who hold firm. This great promise is given by a faithful God. This week, the preacher explains why we should trust God at his word.

The preacher of Hebrews expounds on his opening by first showing us Jesus’ faithfulness. His hope is to remind the congregation of how Jesus has been faithful so we as his house can be faithful in return.

When we were created, we were created to rule from the very beginning. Instead, we became slaves. In order to restore us to our original purpose, God had to come and dwell among us. This week, the preacher of Hebrews explains why Jesus had to come in human form.

This week we start the dive into Hebrews, one of the most complex, beautiful, and misunderstood books in the New Testament.

In this weeks passage Jesus makes a bold statement that must be backed up with death lingering close by. It makes us re-examine where Jesus has made similar claims in our life and how we should respond.

In John 8 Jesus describes how spiritual slavery and lies will keep us from ever walking in true freedom. This week we explore how Jesus dealt with the false belief of Jews by describing what true freedom in Him is like.

In the shortest parable in scripture, Jesus talks about a man who finds a treasure in a field. The treasure is so precious that he does something insane. He sells everything he has to then go purchase the field for that treasure. This week we unpack what it means to give God all that we have, just like the man who finds this treasure.
