App of the Week – Forgiveness
Feb 2600:36:17Tap to summarizeForgiveness – If you are a Christian, then forgiveness is a required course, not an elective. Jesus taught that God forgives us as we forgive others. How we show grace impacts how we receive grace. The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant offers positive insights from a negative example.

Transcribe →App of the Week – Treasure
Feb 2500:34:21Tap to summarizeTreasure – Who hasn’t dreamed of buried treasure and striking it rich? Jesus told two short parables about two men who each found a treasure, and they gave up everything else to get it. It’s a popular storyline in books and movies, but Jesus wasn’t talking about earthly riches; rather, the importance of valuing Him above everything else. We’ll talk today about treasure, priorities, and putting first things first. Hear our earlier messages in this series and other series at our Messages page.

Transcribe →App of the Week – Grace
Feb 1200:32:16Tap to summarizeGrace – Jesus’ parable of the prodigal son is one of the most beautiful stories in the Bible. It shows us, not just how God views rebellious people, but how we should too. As recipients of grace, we should be granters of grace. Second chances are the heartbeat of God.

Transcribe →App of the Week – Excellence
Feb 1200:31:49Tap to summarizeExcellence – Legendary coach Vince Lombardi once said you cannot achieve perfection. But if you chase perfection, you will catch excellence. The reality is that God expects us to chase perfection and catch excellence. We will fail of course, that’s why we need grace. But He deserves our very best, and we’re going to talk about that today.

Transcribe →App of the Week – Prayer
Jan 2900:35:16Tap to summarizePrayer – The Apostle Paul says we are to pray without ceasing. James, the brother of Jesus, says the prayers of the righteous are powerful and effective Jesus Himself says we are to pray with persistence and with assurance that He hears and answers. The thing is, we always pray for God’s will to be done. It’s been said that Prayer is not giving God instructions, but reporting for duty. Today’s parable will take us there.

Transcribe →Baptism and Temptations of Jesus
Jan 800:35:42Tap to summarizeBaptism and Temptations of Jesus – Jesus began His ministry with baptism by John the Baptist, and temptations in the wilderness by Satan. He was baptized as an example to us, His temptations offer a warning to us. When we get serious about our faith, Satan comes after us harder than ever. We cannot just Try to live for Jesus. We must Train to do it; and when we fail, we Trust God’s grace to sustain us. Hear our earlier messages in this series and other series at our Messages page.

Jan 800:30:51Tap to summarizeServe – The Angel told Joseph that the baby Mary was carrying in her womb would save His people from their sins.

Transcribe →Why Christmas – Connect
Jan 800:35:04Tap to summarizeConnect – It seems that Jesus could have just put on flesh, stepped into our world as an adult, and done his 3 years of public ministry. In and out as quickly as possible. Why was he born into poverty, and why live 30 years in obscurity, before fulfilling His purpose? We’ll talk today about why Christmas–the arrival of Jesus as a baby–was so foundational to His mission. Hear our earlier messages in this series and other series at our Messages page.

Transcribe →Between a Rock and a Hard Place – Nehemiah
Dec 1700:33:57Tap to summarizeNehemiah was a great leader…a godly leader. His Old Testament book offers a tremendous example of our partnership with God. We pray, trusting God. We act, as God leads.
