We bring renewal to this world when we step boldly and humbly into our God-given calling.  Watch as Brett Clubb breaks down how God creates us to be His co-creators in this world through our universal, kingdom, and personal callings.

What do you love more? Jesus, or what Jesus can do for you? When we experience pain and sorrow, we tend to misplace our hope or become hopeless. Listen as Pastor Jon shares how Jesus reminds us of our hope in Him as the overcomer of death and sustainer of life.

In Matthew 1, Jesus teaches us important truths through the parable of the Sower. The soil is our hearts, and the plant is the fruit/crop we produce in life. Listen as Pastor Jon spells out this parable, describing that deep roots and foundations in followers of Jesus will ensure resilience.

Jesus’ Kingdom advances when His reign and authority is chosen over the prevailing individualism of this age.  Listen to Week 2 of Renewal: The Resilient, as Pastor Jon encourages us to trust Jesus with our life, death, and eternity.

Cultural renewal begins with personal renewal. It starts with us. We have to surrender to God our idols, apathy, and indulgences.  Listen to Week One of Renewal: The Resilient as Jon Dupin prompts us to identify what is holding us back from being renewed by the Holy Spirit.

"You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: Love your neighbor as yourself." Matthew 22:37-39 Listen as Matt Weaver explains that loving God begins and ends with loving people. This love is not just based on intentions, but is lived out through actions and serving one an...

Amidst the chaos of the world and the circumstances of our lives, it is difficult to accept the peace that God offers. Listen as Brett Clubb describes peace as a gift from God, produced within us by the Holy Spirit. God does not always change our circumstances, but rather meets our chaos with a peace that passes all understanding.

The first step towards wandering is forgetfulness. The first step towards faithfulness is remembrance.  Listen as Tanner Petty tracks the faithfulness of God throughout the whole Bible, encouraging the audience to remember the ways that God has been faithful in their lives.

The emotion of happiness can come and go, but the joy of the Lord is not based on circumstances. Throughout scripture, Jesus teaches that the desires of our heart align with the source of our joy.  Watch Week 2 of Good Fruit: The Fruit of the Spirit, as Sofia Thomas defines joy as an overflow of grace recognized.

David waited to be King. Abraham waited for a son. The Israelites waited for a Messiah. These are powerful examples of how God can equip you in the waiting if you trust him with the process. Our Groups and Care director, Tyler Lower, kicks off our Good Fruit: The Fruit of the Spirit Series with this teaching on patience and waiting on the Lord.

The final stage in the Journey of the Soul is the Life of Love. In this stage, we have acknowledged the realities of following Jesus and continue to grow in spiritual maturity. This maturity comes from embracing obedience and discomfort for kingdom impact.  Listen as Pastor Jon unpacks the end of Peter's journey and see how this stage can set the coordinates in the life of a believer.

Stage Five of the Journey of the Soul is the Journey outward. This stage of the journey is when we begin to accept and embrace the consequences of following Jesus and our primary motivation becomes the desire to love honestly and live according to God’s purposes. God is calling us to reconstruct our faith on Jesus as our redeemer. When we look at Him that way, it changes everything.

Stage 4 of the Journey of the Soul is known as the Inward Journey. In this stage, we hit a wall of unbelief or doubt and begin to question if following God is worth it.  Watch as Sophia Thomas follows the story of Peter and encourages us to love and serve people in their questions and pain.

This stage of the journey is best described as the doing stage. This is the period of time when we find ourselves working for God or being in God’s service. Having gone through the apprenticeship period in stage 2 (Life of Discipleship), now we are ready to do it on our own and to help others. We often think that this is the pinnacle of our spiritual journey, yet in reality, it is less than half o...

The Life of Discipleship is Stage 2 in the Journey of the Soul. This stage is characterized by learning and belonging in the church community.  Listen to Pastor Jon speak on the importance of following Jesus alongside brothers and sisters in Christ as well as accepting Jesus' perfect design for the Church. 

Stage One in the Journey of the Soul is The Recognition of God. This stage has to do with acknowledging the awe of who God is and the redemption that He brings.  Listen to Week 1 of the Journey of the Soul to hear Pastor Jon connect the beginning of Peter's story in Luke 5 to the first stage in the journey of a believer and follower of Jesus.

In Psalms 30:11-12 , it says "You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to you and not be silent.

In Week 3 of our Voice of God series, Pastor Jon talks about what true discipleship looks like and how true discipleship is more than a passive belief in Jesus, but an active practice of Jesus!  Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active.
