STUDIO

This Sunday we embarked on a journey of raw truth and invitation: discovering how our personal preferences —the way we expect life and God to look—can quietly shape how we experience Him and sometimes limit what He wants to do. Through valleys and victories, we’ve seen God remain our constant; yet when storms hit and our timing didn’t match our expectations, our preferences often took center stage...

Last Sunday, I shared how the mind is the meeting place for heaven, hell, and earth—not because they all live there, but because that’s where they all compete for your agreement. Every thought that passes through your mind carries an invitation: some from God, some from fear, and some from your own story. What you agree with determines the reality you live from. When Paul writes in Ephesians 4:23...

Did you know the average person has over 6000 thoughts per day? This means you are having four thoughts every minute. If even 10% of those thoughts are negative, anxious, or intrusive, that’s 600 mental interruptions a day competing for agreement. In the talk titled Intrusive Thoughts, Pastor Eric helped to identify and recognize not all of our thoughts are coming from us and not all of them are d...

This Sunday, Pastor Rheva shared a powerful message from 1 Corinthians 1 titled “Give Us Wisdom.” Paul wrote to the young church in Corinth—a diverse, fast-growing community struggling with division. Pastor Rheva reminded us that, like them, we sometimes let personalities, opinions, or cultural trends pull us apart. But Paul calls us back to unity in Christ, the One who was crucified for us. The m...

At Studio, we’re a passionate community of Jesus followers on a journey of being shaped and formed into His likeness. Every time we gather, we’re reminded that we’re humans living in one culture, while learning to live in the values of another — the culture of God’s Kingdom. Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. - Mtt 6:9-10...

A Echo Chamber is an enclosed space where sound reverberates / an environment in which a person encounters only beliefs or opinions that coincide with their own, so that their existing views are reinforced and alternative ideas are not considered. We create these places as they are comfortable and are re-assuring. However if we want to truly mature as humans we must exit the echo chambers and comm...

Studio has always been, and continues to be, a place where God and people meet. This is a sacred space where healing happens, where belonging is discovered, where creativity and faith intersect, and where the future and dreams are stirred inside of us. It’s not just a church—it’s a community. It’s not just a gathering—it’s a story being written. Here’s the beautiful part: you are integral in helpi...

We are full of gratitude and humility as we reflect back on these past weeks. Processing the devastating events has been weighty and we are thankful as we watch our community (YOU) walk graciously with one another. This is stunning to watch! In the face of pain and grief, we are figuring out how to live, walk, value and honor each other when we are all uniquely different. Jesus prayed that we woul...

It has been quite a week. My heart has been heavy with sadness, shock, grief, anger, confusion—and also with a resolve. Once again, tragedy has shaken our nation and reminded us of the brokenness in our culture. As Psalm 120 says, “In my distress I cried to the Lord, and He heard me… I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.” In moments like this, the temptation is to turn inward—to blam...

On Sunday we continued our study in the Songs of Ascent. Psalm 133 paints a stunning picture: “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” Surprisingly, Unity isn’t the starting point—it’s the result of our journey of walking and doing life with people towards God. Culture often shouts for “unity” but what it really means is agreement, control, or sameness. Scripture sho...

This Sunday, we continued our journey through the Song of Ascents. We were reminded that in Psalm 124 that if the Lord had not been on our side, we would have been swallowed up by life’s storms. These ancient “Songs of Ascent” were survival songs—words sung by God’s people as they journeyed step by step toward His presence. They teach us something powerful: in every situation we face, we have a ch...

For a second week, we continued in the Psalms of Ascent, which the children of Israel sang while on pilgrimage journeys to the Temple. Psalm 127 reminds us: “Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain. In vain you rise early and stay up late, toiling for food to eat—for He grants sleep to those He loves.” Rest...

This week we turned to Psalm 126 , a Song of Ascents: “The Lord has done great things for us, and we are glad… Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.” These psalms were sung by worshippers on their way “up” to Jerusalem—pilgrim songs for people on the move with God. They remind us that following Him is both personal and communal, and it’s a journey marked by steps: leaving behind distress, walk...

This past Sunday we looked at one of the most challenging and transformative truths of following Jesus: If your faith has no room for suffering or waiting, you may have a God you can control—but not the kind of God you can trust. We have been exploring the paradox of waiting and suffering—the “hallway” or “wilderness” seasons between past reality and future promise—and saw how these spaces aren’t...

If God is healer, why hasn’t He healed me yet? If God is comforter, why does it still hurt? If God is the provider, why does lack still linger? These aren’t questions of doubt. These are the questions of discipleship. On Sunday, Pastor Eric shared his journey of still waiting for his healing for his entire life. It was raw, vulnerable and a sprinkle of comedy. He wrestles with the paradox of knowi...

As we are growing, God is revealing things in us—beautiful things, surprising things, and sometimes things that need to be surrendered. It’s all an invitation to go deeper into His love and delight… to be formed in that space, learning to trust, and to release control. Let’s lean into who He is and what He’s providing. He is our Provider. Our Good Shepherd. And we can rest knowing He has already p...

What if culture wasn’t something to fear or fight—but something to cultivate? This Sunday, we’re exploring the idea that culture is a canvas, not a battlefield. From neighborhoods to nations, creativity to parenting, culture is the space where God meets us, shapes us, and invites us to be co-creators in His redemptive story. It’s not about escaping the world or taking it over—it’s about being fait...

This past Sunday, we continued exploring the opportunity and complexity of how we live in this world as Jesus followers. We took it a step further by exploring the Incarnation—Jesus taking on flesh, which is known as The Incarnation. This is foundational to understanding the person and nature of Christ. A question we asked ourselves is - we know Jesus died for all of humanity, but did he die for a...

Over the past few weeks, we’ve explored a powerful idea from physics—the two body problem—and how it mirrors our story: God and humanity, once perfectly connected, then fractured, now beautifully restored through Jesus. When Jesus taught us to pray “Our Father,” He collapsed the distance between Him and us. But the story doesn’t stop there. There’s also a three body problem —God, humans, and cultu...

This past Sunday, Adam Acosta's talk was a powerful and deeply personal exploration of hunger —the kind that shapes identity, misleads us with counterfeits, and ultimately determines the direction of our lives. The speaker shared a pivotal moment where God spoke: “You can hunger to be known by Me, or to be known by man. But you can’t have both.” “Where I want to take you, you must die.” From there...

This Summer is off to a beautiful start and is full of connection, growth and activation at Studio. We are calling this our “Summer of Kindness”! On Sunday we did part 3 of this series with our panel talk on “Sharing Jesus.” We had a great time exploring what this looks like in our lives and in our world today. We kicked things off by talking about evangelism—what it is, why it matters, and how it...

This past Sunday we had a little fun with some highly scientific Dad Stats: 100% of dads think they’re hilarious. 94% of dads believe duct tape and WD-40 can fix anything. 87% of dads are confident they’re the “cool parent.” And dads everywhere continue to wage war on lights left on and doors left open with classic lines like: “I’m not paying to heat the whole neighborhood!” We celebrated some ama...

As we grow and step into all God has for us, we’re called to live with authenticity and faith—rooted in knowing God, understanding our identity, and sharing what we've been given. We weren’t created to chase perfection or live in duplicity. Somewhere along the way, the Christian walk became more about appearances than substance. But Jesus calls us simply to be —to shine our light and reflect Him w...

The first installment of Summer of Kindness series was focused on how Jesus interfaced and interacted with humanity.... In the 1990s, a frustrated engineer named Ajay Bhatt noticed a problem no one was solving—connecting everyday devices to a computer was complicated and inefficient. What emerged from his persistence was the USB port: a simple, seamless interface that revolutionized how technology...

As we move toward the second half of 2025, I’ve been drawn to a moment in Exodus 33 where God tells Moses, “I’m not going with you.” It’s a response to the impatience and misplaced trust of the people in Exodus 32. In the face of delay, they chose control over trust. But Moses responded by setting up his tent outside the camp —a place to meet with God. Inside the camp is where you around human rea...
