HELP! It’s a word we are often scared to use. But the reality is, we all face times when we need it; times when we are not okay. It’s easy to go through life and pretend you don't need help. But what happens when you’re really struggling? We'll be talking about real life and real struggles, and charting a course for how to get through them…

In this popular recurring series at Relevant—a first at Christmastime—we examine surprising ways that God’s timeless truth is echoed in popular culture, namely in box office hits.

What makes you happy? Crazy happy. Surely you can name something...even if you are still working toward having it. But could something else—something very specific—make you even happier? There’s one thing in life that brings more joy than you can imagine. Many would guess that it's family or goals or career or more stuff. But nope, it’s none of tho…

This Sunday we continue our month-long "homecoming" celebration. Because God has been so good, we'll continue to reflect on defining moments in our history, as well as eagerly look forward to what lies ahead.By Carl Nichols

This Sunday we will take an unplanned detour in our "Homecoming" series to discuss more about what's happening in Israel and surrounding areas, why it matters, and how it all fits into the "end times". While these events have not taken God by surprise, and while we have strong reason for hope, it's important to be aware of what the Bible indicates …

This Sunday you are in for a treat as we welcome back to Relevant a special friend with a remarkable story of hope. Born to an unwed teenager mother, Reggie Dabbs considers himself fortunate to be alive. With no place to go, this pregnant teenager ended up living in a chicken coop in Tennessee. Though he began as a “problem” in the womb of a teen m…

Have you ever been offended? We all have, right? But how we choose to respond to offense makes all the difference in what affect it has on us. This Sunday's message, “Don’t Drink the Poison”, will offer helpful ways to navigate the inevitable reality of offenseBy Daniel Foster
