How do we reconcile Jesus—especially his teachings on love of enemy and nonviolence—with the violence we encounter in the Old Testament? It's a question that has challenged Christians for centuries and remains one of the most common objections raised by skeptics. Kyle Tucker helps us thoughtfully explore this tension and invites us into a deeper understanding of Scripture, God's character, and the revelation of Jesus.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

What do Jesus and the scriptures have to say about sexuality? More than a set of rules, scripture offers a vision for our bodies, our desires, and our identity. What if sexuality is about more than just sex? What if our sexual choices shape our worship, our relationships, and ultimately who we’re becoming?CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

In a culture discipled by romance, achievement, and individualism, Jesus presents a startling alternative: a life wholly surrendered to the kingdom of God. In Matthew 19, singleness is not sidelined or pitied, but honored as a sacred vocation. What would it look like for single followers of Jesus to embody spiritual family, mission, hospitality, and wholehearted devotion in a fragmented and lonely ageCITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here: www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

In a culture that worships freedom, protects autonomy, and keeps every option open, Ephesians 5 sounds almost offensive. Submission. Sacrifice. Covenant. Dying to yourself for someone else. Yet beneath the controversy is a deeper ache most people feel but rarely say out loud— we’re starving for intimacy while terrified of surrender. What if the real tension isn’t a biblical vision for marriage, but whether we trust Jesus enough to love the way He did?CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.

In the West, the idea of divine judgment is one of Christianities most offensive doctrines. How do we reconcile a God of love who also judges and sends people to hell? But Jesus didn’t avoid the topic-he spoke of judgment with unmatched clarity. What do we do with this tension and what bearing does it have on our lives?CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.

In the modern West, the problem of evil and suffering remains one of the greatest challenges to faith: If God is good and all-powerful, why do evil and suffering exist? If He cares, why doesn’t He intervene? And if He can intervene but doesn’t, what does that say about His goodness? What makes this even more difficult is that suffering refuses to stay philosophical—often forcing itself into our lives without permission. What do we do with that tension?CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here:www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

The claim “Jesus is Lord” has always been contested-and it still is. In a world shaped by competing stories about truth, identity, and meaning, we’re here to wrestle with the person of Jesus and the weight of His claims. These conversations are honest, grounded, and shaped by a desire to live with both conviction and compassion as we follow Jesus in the modern world.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here:www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

Across the world, billions gather to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus—a moment that has shaped history for over 2,000 years. But the question is: is it true? Because if it is, it changes everything. C.S. Lewis said it this way: “Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, is of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important.CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here:www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder

As we kick off our “Wonderful Controversial Jesus” series, we will set the tone for the entire series by looking at Jesus, who held the tension of compassion and conviction together, and who teaches us to do the same.

When we think about the gifts of the Spirit, we often think of power—signs, wonders, and miracles. But Scripture points us to something even greater: a community shaped by radical, self-giving love. What if the most convincing evidence of God’s Spirit at work isn’t just what we do—but how we love?CITY CHURCH EXISTS TO HELP PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO GOD FROM WHERE THEY ARE.You can find us here:www.citychurchboulder.com www.facebook.com/citychurchboulder www.instagram.com/citychurchboulder
