“We believe in one God,The Father, the Almighty,The maker of heaven and earth,Of all that is, seen and unseen.” Teacher: Tyler Stibrich Week 2 of Three in OneThere's a lot of confusion about God. Is there a god? Multiple gods? If so, who or what is god? Is god a he or she or it or a they? Is the tree in my yard god? Am I god? Is god a person or a force or a state of mind? What we think about G...

"We believe ..." Teacher: Ryan Miller Week 1 of Three in One There’s a lot of confusion about what a Christian really is. It seems like simply following Jesus has been obscured by politics and ideology, hypocrisy and moral failure, and it’s hard to know who to trust. The Nicene Creed is the only confession that is affirmed by every stream of Christianity and describes the united center o...

Gravity is a complicated force. It is actually one of the weaker forces acting on us in the universe, yet it also holds us firmly to the ground. We experience it every moment of our lives, but scientists still cannot really explain it. And there is not just the physical gravity that affects us but a sort of spiritual gravity as well that holds us back. The Bible tells us we are all “fallen” beings...

The new year is the start of a fresh page, a chance to be made new. Normally we take this chance to make resolutions about our waistlines, budgets, and habits, but what if we let this new year be about a fresh change on the inside instead? The Holy Spirit is the great transformer, and he wants to enable and empower us to not just look different on the outside but actually be different on the insid...

The season of advent is not the same as cultural Christmastime. The hope of the advent season and the anticipation of the Christ child’s arrival gives us wonderful gifts of love, joy, and peace. But instead of a world full of love we often encounter relational conflict and strife. There’s “us” and “them”, and even “us” is far from unified. Wouldn’t it be great to have a Christmas that is marked by...

Deep relationships are critical to life that is truly life. But to develop deep relationships we need to move from making friends to keeping them. If we want to have relationships that stand the test of time and avoid just remembering people that you used to know, wishing things could have been different, that you could have acted differently, the Holy In-between will help us connect across our di...

In his famous Sermon on the Mount, Jesus goes through six case studies of living life God’s way. For each case, he begins with “You have heard it said …” and then responds with “But I say …” The common wisdom that we often hear about how to do life helps us get by, but in these case studies, Jesus introduces a radical approach to living that frees us from the shortcomings and pitfalls of “the norm...

In Matthew 5:21 -48, Jesus reveals the divine wisdom of Israel’s Old Testament laws through six case studies. In the first case study, he expounds on one of the Ten Commandments, “Do not murder” (Exodus 20:13 ). After acknowledging this command, Jesus takes it further by saying that anyone who is angry with his brother or publicly shames someone is also guilty of murder. What does he mean? Week 2...
