This week, Eric, challenged us to fight for what God has for us. The promise of our destiny is greater than any battle we'll ever fight. What are you fighting? Name it, call it out and ask God to show you how to fight it.

In Shawn's message he reminds us the importance of our foundation being Christ. He said that "If we are going to stand firm on the foundation and walk fearlessly, our only job is to remind ourselves that God's with me and that means that God's got me. You can stand on the foundation even when you feel afraid."

'Fearless is possible when God's word is foundational.' When it comes to reading the Bible... Where do you start? What's the point? This weekend, Shawn gets real practical and shows us how to apply the Bible to our daily lives.

This weekend Shawn told us all to "Get Ready"! To embrace the grind. And it begins by consecrating ourselves before God and fearlessly trust Him. He reminds us that this is not the end of our stories and that it is just the beginning of some of the best parts of our story. So we do not have to be afraid. God has promised to go with us.

Live from the Brussels campus, Shawn reassures us that, "Against all hope ... I stand in hope ... because I know where my hope comes from."

Where do you place your hope? Andrew Matrone spoke this weekend about the placement of our hope and trust. You may not trust that Jesus is all you need, until Jesus is all you have.

Guest speaker, Ryan Leak, talked to us about how to move toward the mess. We can spend a lot of time distancing ourselves from messes Jesus spent a lot of time getting close to. You don't have to wait for your circumstances to improve before you decide to worship.

This weekend, Brian Zibell talked about the importance of boasting in our weakness'. As we invite God into our weakness we are able then to fully experience the power and the presence of God in each of them.

This weekend, Shawn took the opportunity to encourage and pray over our Austin team as they prepare to be sent to out to plant Red Rocks Church Austin. He also shared some really awesome things that are happening here at Red Rocks.

This weekend, being Fathers Day weekend, Shawn spoke life into all the fathers. He shared four great points on being a good Father. Shawn reminds us that we are deeply loved by God the Father and that He is not going anywhere. So, we may rest in this as we then go to love others as He has loved us.

This week, our guest Ryan Leak states that hurt people hurt others. Because of God's grace and deep love for us we are able to live in true freedom as we recognize our own need to forgive and to be forgiven. We are able to be an extension of Christ as we remember this, that just as the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.

This week Chad speaks into pain. He reminds us of Jesus' deep love and compassion for us as He moves into our stories and into our pain. He doesn't move away, He takes a seat.

When we begin to understand the depth and width of Christ's love for us, we will start to see others the way Christ sees them.

This week, we celebrated Baptism weekend. Baptism is an act of joyful obedience. We are asked to step out of the crowd and to publicly identify our lives with Christ.

In this weeks message, Jill shared about the hope that wells up while Jesus is actively creating something new within us. As spring arrives, flowers begin to blossom, oak trees stand tall in strength, and new life bursts forth around us. One thing we have come to know about life is that life begins small and almost imperceptible.

Shawn states in his message that Jesus visited the world but he did life with the disciples. Who you do life with is vital to the health, direction, and joy of your journey.

This weekend, Eric shared the beautiful stories of what is happening in and through the country of India as the gospel is being proclaimed with courageous boldness.

In his sermon this week, Chad pointed out that although Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8) we are not. As we go through life, we continue to grow, learn, and change. It is one of the beautiful truths of what it means to be human.

Walking in the gift of salvation is one thing but walking in the freedom it offers is often a bit more challenging. Sometimes the shame or guilt from our past life lingers, holding us back from what God truly desires for us as a child of God.

The work on the cross is finished but God is just getting started with us. God is working in and through us, by the work of the Holy Spirit. So don't be discouraged with the ups and downs of life--God is not giving up on us.
