Graeme Cowgill, Executive Pastor at Shoreline Church in Destin, FL, joins us this week we we kick off Here For It series. He shares with us how every one of us is damaged. We feel it, we see it when we look in the mirror, but what does God see? Join us as we take a dive.

What are you building your life on: your own understanding, your mom’s advice, something a podcaster said? Do you try to do life on your own and in your own way? This week Pastor Kevin uses the fifth chapter in James to teach us that wisdom is from God, and the Lord requires us to apply His wisdom and live it out. 

Friendships matter. And, our friendships ultimately influence the way we act, how we spend our time, what plans we make, and more. Too often, we are pulled deeper into friendship with the world rather than friendship with God. Join us this week as Jen Barker, Guest Experience Director, leads us through an examination of James ch. 4 and the call to continually draw near to God. 

Do you ever struggle with figuring out if something is wise or not? What about determining if it is worldly wisdom or Godly wisdom? This week Pastor Kevin gives us a message rooted in James chapter 3 to help us learn what true wisdom is and how to show it in our lives.

Do you ever look at the things going on in the world and think that something needs to be done? Is what you say you believe and what you do sometimes misaligned? This week Pastor Kevin uses the second chapter in James to teach use how we must have faith and actions to grow us into becoming more like Jesus.

What do you struggle with during a tough situation? When things are hard do you want to quit, complain, or doubt God? This week Pastor Kevin will use the story of Paul and Silas in prison to teach use what ingredients we need to focus on during hard times.

How many of you love cake? When you bake a cake, you need the right ingredients, or it won’t turn out well. Just like cake, we need the right ingredients for motherhood. During this message, Amanda Simmons is teaching us the essential ingredients for motherhood!

Who loves tacos? A combination of ingredients is what makes up a taco. During this message, Pastor Kevin Simmons explains how God is more concerned with giving us ingredients rather than recipes. For this message, we are learning what the foundational ingredients are for family!

Are you tired? Are you having a hard time finding peace in your heart? During this message, Pastor Kevin Simmons is closing out “The Missing Peace” series by looking at what we need to be doing in order to receive the peace God has to give us!

Have you tried to strive for good relationships in your life, but there is still something missing? During this message Pastor Kevin uses a story in the Bible to show us that it’s not good relationships we should strive for, but godly relationships! 

Do you struggle to maintain peace in your family? Do you ever feel like love has to be earned? This week, Pastor Kevin uses the story of Martha and Mary to teach us how to love like Jesus and receive the peace He grants us when we surrender our family visions to Him.

Do you spend your life trying to achieve your identity through your successes or failures? During this message, Pastor Kevin Simmons uses the story of Jesus appearing to the disciples to teach us that the only way to our true identity and peace will only come from receiving it from Jesus.

King Jesus is ALIVE! This is good news! When Jesus said “It is finished” on the cross, He meant what He said. During this message, Pastor Kevin Simmons is going to share how we can be truly finished with our broken ways of living through what Jesus did for us!

Do you consider yourself a fan or a follower of Jesus? At times we can struggle with surrendering everything to Him. During this message, Pastor Kevin uses the story of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem to teach us how to move from a fan to a follower.

Do you remember a moment when you were blind to something? We have all been there because we all have blind spots. During this message, Pastor Kevin Simmons is teaching through the story of Jesus healing two blind men and how that story teaches us something for us today!
