Palm Sunday is the intersection of what we often want Jesus to be and who Jesus actually is... What we often envision Christianity to be about and what it actually is about. Everyone expected a king and a kingdom to rise up during the events of Passover 33 AD, and it certainly did. However, nobody could have imagined the way Jesus introduced His rule nor the nature of His Kingdom. Listen as we follow Jesus through the events of Palm Sunday and see how He subverted every expectation that day. His words and actions in the face of such an opportunity reveal the heartbeat of His Kingdom and show us the way forward as God's people. Palm Sunday’s outcome is why we can be saved and it outlines how every saved person must live.…

John 6 is a crossroads in the early Christian movement. The masses assumed they understood Jesus and believed that He could be easily manipulated to get whatever they wanted from God. Perceiving that His signs had been woefully misinterpreted, Jesus sought to clarify His message to His thousands of followers. Alas, at the end of the day, the majority unfollowed Him. In this message, we discuss the motives of the crowds that followed Jesus in those early days. We learn why it was so urgent and necessary that Jesus correct the narrative surrounding His movement, even if it did end up costing Him greatly. He knew that the greater cost would be that which His followers would pay, if they remained so misguided. Listen as we learn about the true, pure, and most fulfilling incentives for following Jesus. His primary purpose isn't to enrich us with temporary stuff, but rather to fill us with Eternal Life. Many turn to Jesus to obtain and consume more, but the true prize comes from following, sacrificing, and surrendering our lives to His greater calling over us.…

For God so loves our rebel race that He continues to have mercy for those who deliberately turn against Him. In the immediate aftermath of the Fall, Cain begs for relief from his self-induced burden and God gives him grace. If we ever question how God feels about sinners like us, Genesis 4 makes that very clear. in response to this grace, Cain's offspring react with even more defiance. Things continue to look bleak for the human race. Yet, God had a plan - He always does. God would raise up a remnant that would live in contrast to the children of man. Even in our generation, God has a remnant and will preserve a people for Himself.…

Jesus came into a world that was so misinformed, misguided when it came to God. Attempts at reconciling with Him had only created further distance and separation between the average person and God. Religious leaders were delusional in their quest to earn God's favor, while common people were downcast in their own sin, guilt, and shame. People were waiting in lines that never took them anywhere good, but only left them with less hope and more questions. In this message, we see Jesus encounter people on both sides of the spectrum, but extending the exact same message. Listen and see how the same Gospel comes to all us, whether in our self-righteousness or self-defeat. Jesus issues the same invitation to us, one of grace, forgiveness, and reconciliation with God.…
In this message we discuss divine appointments, risk vs reward, and the boldness of Christian hope. In one of the most memorable chapters in the Bible, Jesus demonstrates His mastery over demons, disease, and even death.

As hard as it to imagine, there was a time when "Jesus" wasn't synonymous with God and when Christianity wasn't an global institution of grace and truth. 2000 years ago, a line was drawn in history when Jesus entered this world and changed everything. While many generations since haven't worshipped Him as Savior and Lord, they've lived in a world that has been undeniably touched and impacted by Him. That truth alone ought to make everyone take a second look. Even believers should consider Jesus more seriously and sacredly than ever. In this series, we follow the eyewitness account of Jesus' original follower, John, as he details how Jesus began to change the world. In this opening message, we see Jesus encounter John and his friends for the first time and consider John's initial observations of who Jesus was. Together, with the witness of history, we marvel at how Jesus revealed God to a lost, desperate world and kickstarted a movement that has yet to slow down.…

The breakdown of our world was a direct result of the breakdown of the family - the very first family, that is. In this message, we look at God's original mandate given to Adam and Eve pertaining their complementary design and purpose in reflecting the full image of God. We see how both were made in equality, yet given unique responsibilities, for the good of each other and the Kingdom of God. A failure to meet those responsibilities is what caused the first of many dominos to fall in the world, leading to the disorder we still feel today. Listen as we discuss all of this and more - including a quick mention of dinosaurs and some concluding thoughts on God's promise to clean up the mess we had made.…

In this message we discuss: - The origins of sin in our universe. Does evil predate Genesis 3? - If God is sovereign over all things, is it possible that the events of Genesis 3 were part of His plan all along? - Why the original audience for this text would've needed no explanation for the serpent being synonymous with the devil - How the enemy always calls into question the goodness and trustworthiness of God's Word…

Our 1 John series concludes with a conversation about confidence and assurance. In Christ, we can possess an unshakeable faith, preparing us for and motivating us during whatever the Lord wills. John outlines three secrets to obtaining this enduring confidence in God: Anchor our faith in God's Truth, Surrender our lives to God's Plan, and Guard our hearts from sin and idols…

Jesus performed many miracles throughout His ministry, it's hard to keep up with them all. However, Jesus was very strategic and intentional with each divine work. None of them were random acts of power, but rather signs and wonders designed to show people who He really was. While clearly a miracle worker, Jesus came to do something even greater than heal our earthly maladies. He came to forgive sins and deliver our hearts from bondage. Jesus did the unthinkable in His day - He touched the unclean and did good for those that religion had condemned. He gave people their lives back who had long been cast away... but more importantly, He showed those same people what a connection to God was like and provided them Eternal Life.…

We were not made for the commandments. The commandments were given for us, for our good. In this message, we consider how salvation should produce obedience. We also conclude that obedience is the obvious move, because our best is always on the other side of it.

Before the Fall, there was Purpose. Humanity was placed by God in paradise and given responsibility. Even on this side of the fallout, we still look back to God's original vision for our world to understand what we were made for and how we might honor God with our lives.

God didn't rest on the seventh day because He had to but because He could... He could rest because He was finished and everything was in place to operate smoothly and completely. We are called to take hold of this same kind of rest, not to fulfill religious obligations, but to take hold of one of God's greatest promises.…
