INTO THE WARDROBE // SOURCE MATERIAL
3d ago00:37:51Tap to summarizeWhat is the Bible? This week, we tackle this simple question that has life-changing implications. Together, we explore Scripture as a library of writings—both divine and human—that tell one unified story leading us to Jesus. Along the way, we consider how understanding genre, context, and authorship can transform the way we read the Bible, moving us beyond information and into formation.
Transcribe →WRITTEN FOR US, NOT TO US // SOURCE MATERIAL
1w ago00:33:32Tap to summarizeThe Bible is one of the most influential books in human history, yet many of us find it confusing, frustrating, or difficult to understand. This week, guest speaker Jess Gracewski explores a simple but transformative idea: Scripture was written for us, but it was not written to us. As we learn to read the Bible with humility, context, and curiosity, we discover a God who invites us to draw near, wrestle honestly, and be formed into people who become a blessing to the world.
Transcribe →WORD OF GOD // SOURCE MATERIAL
2w ago00:35:43Tap to summarizeMost followers of Jesus would agree, at least in theory, that Scripture is an essential part of our faith. And yet, so many people struggle with the Bible. We begin a new collection of teachings exploring the beauty and the mystery of Scripture. This week, we talk about what posture we should approach the Bible with.
Transcribe →THE COURAGE TO BE KNOWN // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
3w ago00:45:26Tap to summarizeMost of us want to be loved, but few of us want to risk being fully known. So we put on masks, even at church. In this sermon, Yesuto closes our True and False Self series by inviting us to take the courageous step of honest community. We explore why we need each other, how to share our struggles wisely, and how the church can become a place where vulnerable stories are safely held.
Transcribe →THE SNARE OF SENTIMENT // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
May 1700:42:09Tap to summarizeThe Biblical concept of love is always active. God calls us to a life of compassion, a love that moves outward in action. But we live in a culture that's replaced compassion with sentiment, a love that's never acted upon. How do we move beyond sentiment into compassionate love? This week, we see how embodying compassion is the best way to break out of the false self and enter into the true self.
Transcribe →FIG LEAVES // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
May 1000:36:22Tap to summarizeWhat parts of your life are motivated by fear, rather than love? The false self is the identity we all carry that's born out of fear. But how do we return to our true identity, given by God in love? This week, we go back to the beginning in the Garden of Eden to discover God's divine plan for setting us free from the false self.
Transcribe →WORSHIPPING SHREK // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
May 300:34:26Tap to summarizeWho we believe God to be has a profound impact on our lives. Many of us go through life thinking we're worshipping the true God, when in reality, we're actually worshipping a false version of him. The false self is rooted in a distorted view of God. This week, we expose some of these false versions of God that we carry, and reveal who God truly is.
Transcribe →SIT DOWN (HELP MY UNBELIEF) // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
Apr 2600:33:19Tap to summarizeWe know we want to live from our true selves – but what's really driving the false self underneath it all? This week, we dig into the deep-seated beliefs that fuel our need to perform, control, and self-protect. Through a powerful framework of God's greatness and goodness, a personal story of anxiety, and the raw honesty of a father's cry in Mark 9 – "I believe; help my unbelief" – we discover that the journey from false self to true self isn't about gathering more information. It's about moving from belief to conviction on the true character of God: finally sitting down and letting God take our full weight.
Transcribe →THE JOURNEY OF FAITH (PART II) // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
Apr 1900:44:11Tap to summarizeWe continue our teaching from last week, as we explore the life of Peter through the framework of the six Stages of Faith. What we find is a fascinating case study of the journey of shedding the false self and uncovering the true self.
Transcribe →THE JOURNEY OF FAITH // THE TRUE & FALSE SELF
Apr 1200:34:44Tap to summarizeWithin each of us, is what the ancients throughout history called the false self. It's the self rooted in who we think we should be, rather than who we actually are. The journey of faith calls us to shed off the false self and embrace the true self, the fullness of who God created each of us to be. But how do we get there? What does this look like? This week, we explore a helpful framework called the "Stages of Faith," to discover how we can step into the truest version of ourselves in God.
