Teach Us To Pray Part 3 Repentance should be a daily practice.

How can praise change our perspective on life? And how does praising God to others change their perspective on life?

We can learn to pray like Jesus Prayed.

How does slowing down physically affect you spiritually? Today we discuss the dangers of moving too fast and how we can slow down to better connect with God and others.

How can simplifying our life help us build a better relationship with Jesus? Is stuff making us more stressed out?

In the 3rd part of our Series on the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry we learn about Sabbath. God has gifted us with one day a week of rest...but are we taking advantage of this gift?

We need to daily cut off all the noise and seek to be quiet with the Lord to grow in our relationship with him.

The vision for Branches in 2024 is that we would Pray Always. Hear Pastor Jake talk through the Vision and goals for Branches in 2024.

Anna's thankfulness toward the Lord caused her to live a devoted life. A life where she served Jesus and shared Jesus with others.

Today we look at different ideas to help us grow in Gratitude, Grow in Contentment, and Grow in Giving.

Gratefulness in our hearts produces an heart of generosity. And we know Jesus says, "it is more blessed to give than to recieve." In this message Pastor Jake discusses the ways that we can be blessed by giving.

Grateful Series: Contentment You have everything your need to be completely happy right now. "Godliness with contentment is great gain" 1 Tim 6:6

Psalm 111 teaches us 6 things we can praise God for. 1. Praise God for the Church   2. Praise God for His Truth   3. Praise God for His gifts that give us Joy and Pleasure.   4. Praise God for His past blessings in our lives and in the world around us.   5. Praise God for his Provisions (the small things).   6. Praise God for His Salvation.

Is it possible to be known and to know the God of the universe? And what does that God think about us? Does He love us? In this talk we see why God really wants a relationship with us.

We have to have faith..but God doesn't expect us to have a blind faith. We have plenty of good reasons why we can trust the Bible to be the true Word of God.

Jesus claimed to be God...but is He? What about if everyone else says something different? What did those closest to Jesus think?

What if they Christianity people often reject is not the truth but rather a caricature? Today we discuss God using His own words.

If God is so good...why does he allow pain and suffering? Can anything good come from it. In week 3 of our series "Explore God" we discuss this question that everyone asks when we go through pain...why would God allow this?

In this new series called, Explore God, we dive into 7 Big Questions of Life. Todays question is ... Does My Life Have Purpose, or, Does my life matter? Part 1 of 7

Jesus is the greatest friend their ever was...and he teaches us the meaning of sacrificing for your friends.

True Friends Share the gospel with their friends.

True Friends help us by seeing what we cannot see in ourselves. They help us to shave off our flaws and encourage us to use our strengths for the glory of God.
