Uptown Church Dallas

A call to prayer and lament in response to recent events in the DFW area.

Have you ever met that person who, no matter what is going on in their lives, always seems at peace and full? Inspiring, isn't it? What if we could all live that way, even in the ups and downs of life? Join us as we continue our Faith Full series looking at the catalysts that fuel our lives even in a world running on empty. 

Our world can be a draining place. It can steal our hope and leave us feeling like we're running on empty.  But what if there were things you could do to fuel your life and faith ? We continue in Part 2 of our Faith Full series diving into one of the keystone habits of faith, or Faith Catalysts that keep us fueled in every season and stage of life.

Our world can be a draining place. Sometimes, it can steal our hope and leave us feeling like we're running on empty. Explore how you can fuel your life in a world running on empty.

Celebrate Easter with Uptown! "The light shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot overcome it."

Have you ever walked into a situation expecting one thing and experienced something completely different? Jesus' disciples can relate. One of the last places the disciples walked with Jesus was into the city of Jerusalem. Between the crowds, the cheering, and the proclamation that "the king had come," it was the moment they had been waiting for. However, they could never have anticip...

This week in our 'Walking with Jesus' series we are looking at a story in Scripture that begins with Jesus' disciples stuck on a boat in the middle of a storm and ends in a very unique miracle. Chances are you've heard the ending of this story before, and you might feel a little skeptical. Yes, we struggle with this one too. Join us this week as we explore what Peter learned about...

Did you know walking with your spouse, friend, or partner can improve the quality of your relationship with them? Studies show that walking with a person, even in silence, increases our connection with them and our empathy for them. The same is true of our relationship with Jesus. For Jesus' first disciples, it was the act of journeying with Jesus that changed their understanding of who He tru...

We've all heard the adage that you don't know someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. This was true of the disciples who first followed Jesus and is true for us today. Join us this Sunday as we dive into a new series,  Walking With Jesus,  and explore the interactions the disciples had as they journeyed with Jesus in his ministry and what they came to learn about him...

Do you ever wonder what's with the rituals the church has, such as Communion? At the heart of this act of worship, we remember Jesus' life and the very life we are called into through the Church.

What's the first question you ask when you get invited to a party? Who's invited? Yes, us too. But after that, what is usually the next thing you want to know? What can I bring or how can I help? This question reveals one value of a party all of us understand, it's better when we all participate. Whether or not, we bring something, assist the host in setting up, or we simply are engaged in convers...

We share the best things in our lives with others. From sharing the lastest new foodie hot spots to our favorite baby sitter or dry cleaners. We share the things we love with the people we love. Why don't we do the same thing with God? When it comes to our faith, we oftentimes get quiet. How can we use three simple words to change everything?

Over and over in scripture, we find Jesus hosting parties, making appearances at them, or telling stories about them. Why? What was it about Jesus' life and how he chose to live that parties were such a central component? What can we learn from Jesus and his parties that could change our relationships with others and how we live our lives?"

As we celebrate these last two years as a church, we reflect on all God had done and is doing in our lives. There are so many stories of transformation to share and celebrate. Looking forward, we pray and dream about what God will continue to do in our community and our individual lives.

Did you know that the Bible talks about friendships more than any other relationship type? Listen in to part 4 of Relationship Goals as we discuss the power of friendship and ways to prioritize forming healthy relationships.

It is so hard to find "the one" when dating, but this task is made even harder by myths surrounding dating and love. Fortunately, God provides a map for what love looks like in 1st Corinthians 13. We learn not only how to identify when someone loves us, but also how we should convey love to others.

If you think your family is complicated just take a look the families in the Bible! Family relationships are messy, even Jesus' relationship with his family was difficult at times. But Jesus shows us how to restructure our family in a way that honors God.

God made us to be in relationship with one another, but sin breaks down our relationships. How do we have healthy relationships in the midst of a sinful world? God's presence with us teaches us how. 

It's a week after Christmas and all the trappings of the season are beginning to fade as a New Year begins. What we spent so much time and effort preparing for is now over. Or is it? The final song on the very first Christmas Playlist was sung exactly a week after Jesus was born and gives us incredible insight into what comes next as the Christmas story is just beginning.

Is there a song you have heard many times before, but don't actually know what the lyrics are or what they mean? The song the Angels sing at the first Christmas announcing the arrival of the long-awaited Messiah, is one of these songs. For many of us, these lyrics are so familar, "Gloria, in excelsis deo," that we end up missing the meaning of these words. Join us for part 3 of our Christmas Playl...
