What makes you alive? Do you know what it feels like to truly be alive? So often the difficult circumstances and pain of this world can leave us feeling far away from the experience of really living.

Why do you need to be righteous? How do you actually get righteousness? So often we feel anxious about our moral status before God or feel we need to get everything right in order to be righteous.

What do we get from our faith for life right now? If we look at the life of Jesus, we can see that He was filled with spiritual gifts like peace, grace, joy -- while having none of the external things we commonly seek. In other words, Jesus was the most 'alive' man who ever lived! Do you want to live your life grasping for external desires, or seeking an internal spiritual life of Peace, Grace, an...

"Trust Me." Many things can be implied with this phrase. What is God asking when He wants us to trust Him? Lack of doubt? Resisting all forms of sin? At the end of the day, God is really only asking us to believe 2 primary things: that He can raise the dead, and He can make life out of nothing. Despite the very real difficulties of our lives, once we put these beliefs into practice, it opens us up...

In the World, we get things only because we've earned them. With God, we get things because He has promised to give them.

Some people seem to get all the luck - and we resent them for it. When you worked your hardest to get something, while someone else just got it handed to them, we think it's unfair. But once you realize the extent of God's unearned blessings in your life, it turns this equation on its head, and we begin to want His blessing for others too. Through God's blessing, we find the will and strength to d...

How do we feel alive? Is it through achieving some goal, realizing some dream, having some relationship? The truth is, every route we could take in this world will simply lead us to death and brokenness. The life we need is not outside us -- but it is something that God can place within us! ⛪ Looking for a church in New York City? Come visit Vineyard Manhattan on Sundays 10AM! Join our community...

In today's world, we are concerned about "healthy" giving - setting boundaries that allow us to keep enough energy and vitality for ourselves. But Jesus did not give in this manner; He has allowed us to selfishly take every part of him in order to be with us.

Boasting and bragging aren't just mildly unattractive ways of speech - Jesus has made them outdated through his unparalleled work on the cross.
