We can be tempted by a lot of things we shouldn’t give in to. But when we give into the temptation of humility, the world changes for the better. 

The cross is a reminder for us to stop chasing what can’t be caught. In the first century, the cross was a symbol of suffering and shame. In this series, Andy Stanley will talk about how it now represents an empowering invitation to a completely different way of life.

It’s not intuitive to choose to lose, but Jesus introduced an upside-down way of living. In the first century, the cross was a symbol of suffering and shame. In this series, Andy Stanley will talk about how it now represents an empowering invitation to a completely different way of life.

You gave your life to Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, leader and friend. But now what? It seems like after we choose to follow Jesus, you’re on a different kind of journey. You still wrestle with sin and you still struggle, so how is life supposed to be different? How come God doesn’t just make us perfect right after we give our lives to him? Why do Christians sometimes struggle? The answer is in our weird church word - Sanctification.

What do you do with your guilt? Guilt and shame are something that we all carry at times. These things are a result of our brokenness. How do you handle the guilt that builds itself like plaque on your soul? In this message, Jeff looks at the power of atonement. Not only is it an incredible description for God’s desire for humanity, but it’s also a picture of why and how God wants to meet us in our guilt and shame and show us a way forward. 

Every day you face situations that you aren’t sure how to handle, and the relational challenges are the hardest. What filter could you use to live your life the right way? What if you could know what Jesus was thinking when he lived his life on earth? In this message, Jeff looks at the term “incarnation,” and specifically at incarnational living and how it gives us a framework for living our lives in every circumstance.

If you’ve googled Christianity or were in a church as a kid, you likely heard people use words that you didn’t completely understand. Words you don’t hear in everyday life. Terms like Trinity, incarnation, atonement, and holiness. However, underneath these words are deep truths that unlock real insight into God and into your own life. In this series, we’re going to help you break down these weird church words and discover meaning for the deepest desires in your soul.

Build your life on the rock of Jesus, not the shifting sand of anything else. The golden rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” You’ve probably quoted it and may even try to live by it. Jesus taught it as a small part of his most famous sermon, but there’s so much more to it than you might expect. This scriptural account has more meaning, challenge, and depth for your life. What if you’re missing the whole point? Join us as Mark Clark unpacks this important message.

Acknowledging that the cause of our anxiety often stems from emotional responses rather than factual evidence, Pastor Mark discusses how three powerful beliefs: the existence of God, God's providence, and God's love, can alleviate these worries. Join Mark Clark as he continues unpacking Jesus greatest sermon in part 3 of Beyond The Golden Rule.

Taking the step to care for someone who doesn’t know Jesus can feel daunting. What does it mean to be the kind of person, and the kind of church, that cares for people who are far from God? There’s something powerful about one human being intentionally serving another. It’s at the heart of our faith and modeled by Jesus.

It’s easy for us to dismiss or forget that God is working all around us. Not only do we miss what he’s doing, but we also miss out on being a part of it. What if the key to a faith that’s meaningful and engaging is looking to see who God is calling us to reach out to, and looking to see where he’s already at work? What would happen if you made more room in your life to see the people around you who don’t know Jesus the way God sees them? What if people saw you as a person of hope? What if they saw you as “home”? And what if they saw our church that way?

We all need help—help from friends and help from Jesus to address the deepest need of the human heart. When you experience something that changes everything, you can’t help but share it. As Jesus journeyed toward the cross and the tomb, different people along the way were invited to come and see. As his journey progressed, it became less clear what God was doing in the moment, but more clear to us today–clear that the invitation to come and see isn’t just a physical one, it’s a spiritual one. It’s an invitation of forgiveness, hope, and freedom. It wasn’t just news for a moment, but good news for all humanity. Good news for you, and it’s definitely worth sharing.
