Kindness That Transforms
Has there ever been a time in your life when you were treated extra special and you knew you didn't deserve it? Sometimes we believe that we don't deserve special treatment because of our social status with other people and other times it's because of mistakes we've made in the past. This is what makes the story of Jesus so special and we can see this in the story of Ruth as well. When we are treated this way and when we treat others in this way, a life-altering transformation begins to occur.

Real Righteousness
Checklists help us keep track of things that are important to accomplish and they help us stay on task. They help keep us accountable and focused. We often use checklists – even if not written – to help us as we attempt to live up to our calling in Christ, as we attempt to be righteous. But what happens when we can’t check all the boxes on our list? What happens when our checklist includes the wrong boxes (i.e., when important things are left off the checklist and incorrect things are added to the checklist)? Thankfully, God answers these questi...

Throne Room Experience
Many of us have heard stories from others or from the media about people who say they have witnessed Heaven. We read about a few of these experiences in scripture as well. This is something that we all wish to encounter on some level, but a fair warning: if you truly do experience it in this lifetime, there will be a cost that comes with that experience. The question we must ask ourselves then is "Is it worth it?"

Sometimes God calls us to do some crazy things. What happens if you're called to go somewhere though? How do we discern God's calling and when we do, what if it's something that we weren't ready for?

Unqualified for God's Plans
We live in a world of constant strife and competition. We must do our best and be our best. Sometimes we even need to be better than our best. This is why we tend to only get recognized, appointed, and promoted when we have accomplished enough and are considered to be the best choice. This is a primary way that God turns our lives upside down. God constantly chooses people who have no business being chosen. The unqualified are His top picks. This is a wonderful thing though because we are all unqualified and therefore, God chooses each of...

The Timeless Battle All Around Us
When you hear the phrase "spiritual warfare," what is your response? Some people are afraid of it. Some people refuse to acknowledge it. Paul, however, wants Christians to prepare and be ready for it. He also goes into detail about what it will take to withstand the assaults from Satan. Not only is this battle for real, it's been going on for an incredibly long time. This is a winnable though for one simple reason: we have the ultimate weapon on our side. His name is Jesus.

Upside Down Relationships
A lot of how we determine what a healthy Christian home looks like can be drawn straight from Ephesians 5 and 6. While this is a good source, it's even more fascinating to look at the culture of the time of this writing because of how this turns the world upside down. Much like today, relationships were about power. It was about knowing the right people and climbing the social ladder. Paul changes all of this in sharing the news of Jesus and showing the church how this example becomes a guide to sharing the gospel in our everyday relationships: through...

Ecclesial Fundamentals
Something that many of us will hear from people about Christianity at times is how exhausting it can be trying to be a Christian. They feel like there's a big checklist of things that you have to do and not do in order to be a "good Christian." What is important when looking at passages that look like checklists is to understand the WHY of the checklist. If we don't understand the why of the list, then the list will feel less and less important. The core essence of the checklist in the passage this morning is holiness.

Church Family: What A Mess!
Over the last few weeks, we've talked a decent bit about how messy family can be and that finding family amongst our church can be a real blessing in place of the holes that family can sometimes leave in us, but sometimes church family can be just as much of a mess and sometimes even more so! What's beautiful about it though is Jesus's love for His church and how, despite us getting in the way, God's tendency to do some of His best work through us.

For a long time, our culture almost expected families to look the same way. So much has changed now and so many things are now out in the open. Blended families are practically the norm for so many nowadays. While this can be a good thing, it's also a mess. There are territories to navigate and feelings to be attentive to. Usually, there's some form of hurt to work through as well. What we can find throughout scripture though is a variety of people who experienced the blended family life, especially Jesus.

There are so many things that come into play with adoption. If there’s one thing I can promise, it’s that every adoption story is different.

Anyone who has been married for any length of time will tell you the same thing about marriage:it is both difficult and a blessing. While every marriage is different, there are always challenges to be overcome on a variety of levels. However, this is also a beautiful picture of Christ and the church. Paul illustrates God's love for the church through the image of a bride and groom. In this way, marriage can be something that puts God's love for us on display to the world.

True North
We make sense of the world by learning, storing and analyzing facts. We inherently take that analysis and form expectations by applying it to new situations or imagined situations. As Christians, this same pattern of exploration and analysis is used to develop expectations of who God is and what He is doing in the world around us. Unfortunately, our analysis and expectations are, at times, simply wrong and, as a result, can be difficult to reconcile with our experiences. Dealing with unmet expectations can be incredibly disorienting and debilitating, including as applied to our spiritual lives and expectations around...

Revolutionary Resurrection
When we talk about resurrection in our churches today, it is something that probably sounds fairly common since so many people in church know about Jesus' own resurrection. When Jesus tells Martha that He IS the resurrection, it would have been received far differently because no one believed that it was actually possible until the last day or judgment day. Jesus isn't only revolutionizing people's view on resurrection, He is wasting no time in starting that immediately in that moment.

A shepherd is something that is mostly only talked about in Christian circles nowadays, especially in our community, simply because of how rare it is to find sheep. That being said, this idea of Jesus as "the good shepherd" would have connected in a very deep way for those who heard this. In a lot of ways, it's the difference between an authentic relationship and a surface level one. Hired hands will leave sheep at the first sign of trouble but a good shepherd will always protect, love, and defend his sheep. God will never leave us to face...

It's always a special time when someone special makes an entrance so it is incredible that God makes his in the form of a burning bush to just one lowly, outcast man in Moses.

While God is answering Moses's questions, he's also setting the stage for His entrance, His name, and His presence. In doing this, God's redemptive process and purposes begin to take shape.

Silence and Solitude: The Assault on Satan
We live in a hurried world. Not only that, our society tells us to hurry and that we aren't valuable if we can't do things quickly. We also live in a world where we need to be around people and noise. However, some of the most incredible things that God does in scripture involve a healthy amount of silence and solitude. Perhaps this is why Jesus seeks out these two things so often. As Satan wages war on our lives, stillness may be the very best thing we can do to combat him.

When the church asks you to give, it is usually a bit awkward. I mean what institution doesn't ask you to give.

Courage to March
The Israelites have now crossed the Jordan and they are officially in the promised land! However, they don’t find a promised land that is empty. They find many adversaries and Jericho, the most fortified city in all the land is first. In so many ways, we are coming out of the wilderness ourselves and into our promised land, the question now becomes “What will we do to take what God has given us?”

The Sound of Rejoicing Heard Far Away
Sometimes, greater forces than we can imagine are at work to steal our joy and derail us from realizing the God intended potential that lies within every one of us. Join us this Sunday as we examine the big picture of our times and as we look to the story of Nehemiah to see how God has prepared us for such a time as this! Nehemiah Chapters 11 & 12

When the Walls of My Life Collapse
Have you ever felt so overwhelmed, you just feel like giving up? If so, you might be surprised to know there are stories in the Bible of people who felt the same way. You might also be surprised to learn that God always makes a way, even when it seems impossible.

New Beginnings: Prepared to Face Any Situation
Fear seems to sell these days. We are constantly bombarded with fear of missing out, fear of this group, fear of that trend, fear of a bad economy, the list goes on and on. Fear sometimes helps with good decision making, like when meeting a bear in the woods. However, sometimes we listen to our fears more than we listen to God, and that's when things can begin to fall apart. The good news? God always provides a way. Join us this Sunday as we explore the story of Nehemiah, a man who wrestled with his fears and ultimately...

I’m talking about a kick in the gut type of disappointment – the kind where someone you put your trust in just tears your heart out – and the pain is so overwhelming you just sit down and cry; possibly for several days. Have you ever experienced that kind of disappointment? Did you know there was an Old Testament prophet named Nehemiah who can totally relate? More importantly, did you know God worked through Nehemiah's disappointment to do amazing things? Here's the best part - That...

Sunday Service - The God of Transition
Anxiety is the air we breathe. Everything has changed and is changing. Throughout Scripture, it is times of transition when God leads his people in new ways. As God's people, we are called to be faithful to God---to have a God-centered identity in a spirit of dependence, discernment and trust. What does this look like in our soul and life with others?

Sunday Service - Living in the And
I once heard it said, "Life is a series of and's." At first I was puzzled, but then it hit me; We live between good and bad, ups and downs, rich and poor, life and death, and much more. The question for this Sunday is, "What do we do with our and's as followers of Jesus Christ?" Join us this Sunday "and" find out! With Greg Anderson
