Monday is often the least favorite day of the week for one simple reason: work. After all, that feeling of dread hits us Sunday afternoon when we realize the weekend is nearly over. And then the workday grind will be on again. It can be hard to get past the feeling that we must work to make a living. But what if there was a different way to look at Mondays? There is — and it all begins with how Go...

This Sunday is Compassion Sunday at Velocity — a special day for churches across America to share God’s message about caring for refugees and those otherwise in need. What’s more, it’s an occasion for churches in America join in solidarity with churches in the developing world. And that’s more relevant than ever considering the current crisis in Afghanistan and the ongoing threat to our fellow Chr...

The opener for Jesus’ most famous teaching — the Sermon on the Mount — is in Matthew 5:3-12. It contains eight beatitudes, which are statements of characteristics that are indicative of those living blessed lives. It’s within each description that we find who belief in God enables us to be. And it’s in this becoming that we are blessed. That’s what we’re exploring at Velocity in our sermon series...

Our guest speaker this Sunday morning is Tim Cole, the Executive Director of Waypoint Church Partners -- an organization that plants churches around the Mid-Atlantic, and assists and trains church leaders for a wide variety of needs. And if he looks somewhat familiar, Tim was also Velocity's original pastor!

Anyone who has ever struggled with the pitfalls of life knows what it’s like to wrestle with God. It’s those exhausting times when we deal with people, circumstances and faith — and especially our hearts — that require intense effort that connects deep within our souls. Thankfully, we’re not alone in these personal battles. And such adversity is nothing new in the human experience. In fact, the Bi...

We all have family. For some that’s a joy. But for others, it’s a painful reminder. Either way, we know that family shapes us and affects the trajectory of our lives. What’s more, we want our family to be the best it can be. Family matters to us — and it also matters to God. And how we form and play our role in it largely determines how we experience it. That’s what we’re exploring at Velocity in...

What happens when we die? It’s a question we’ve all pondered, and it’s been answered with theories ranging from nothing to everything. In the Bible, Jesus tells his disciples that through his death and resurrection — and his return to God — he will prepare a place for his followers before returning to bring them along. It’s a hopeful promise for all who believe in Christ: that when we die, being w...

A lost art is something that usually requires a particular skill that few people have anymore. It might seem like the reason we no longer do some of the things we once did is because they’re outdated. But when they relate to our cultural identity, their loss isn’t because they’re unnecessary or useless. Instead, it’s because we haven’t practiced, passed down or upheld the standards of the skills n...
