As we embark on a 4-week conversation about sexuality, we need to realize the limp that we carry into the conversation as people who have been formed within the story that our world tells us about sexuality. Thankfully, we aren’t left to flounder in a world of confusion around such matters. Jesus has entered into the story to model a life of sexuality that tells an alternative story - the Kingdom of God.

Daniel was just a teenager when he was kidnapped and taken to a foreign culture for the duration of his life.   Listen and learn from Daniel's example of how establishing a daily prayer rhythm sustained him under daunting workplace pressures in a hostile environment.

Hezekiah was a young king who faced an existential threat to the nation of Israel. Listen and learn from Hezekiah about what it means to pray meaningfully and intelligently under unimaginable pressure.

We begin our new Sermon Series- Livin' on a Prayer. Moses was one of the greatest leaders Israel ever had, but it was his desperation in prayer that sustained him and the children of Israel.  Listen in and learn from Moses how the tide of your life's battles hinge on the location of your hands in prayer.

Preaching about life in the Spirit and what Jesus is up to around the world- you won't want to miss this kick-off to the New Year.

Greg Musselman encourages us to live in God's safe place. There is a lot of fear all around us due to the uncertainty in the economy, terrorism, violence and calamities in our world. However for the followers of Jesus we are told over and over in the bible not to fear.

The Waiting Room continues as Pastor Lisa takes a look at Mary's intentionality to treasure God's work in her heart.

Pastor Jeremy teaches us from Simeon’s perspective (Luke 2), what it was like to wait with purpose for the coming promised Messiah.  Waiting is never a waste in God’s economy, and there are many valuable lessons to be learned when it seems as though the promises of God are a long time coming….

Pastor Nathan walks us through Zechariah’s story which marks the beginning of a new thing that God initiated after a long period of historical silence.  In both a micro and macro way, silence was broken as Zechariah finds himself very personally (and unexpectedly) drawn into God’s new unfolding story.

For 10 weeks we have been wrestling with what it really means to step into the Good Life.  As we close out this series of messages Pastor Matt helps us to investigate the assumptions behind many of our day to day decisions, to see whether perhaps it is those assumptions that might be holding us back from the Good Life that we long for.

Pastor Dan walks us through Investing in the Kingdom... We all want to be remembered.  No one wants to go through life hoping to be forgotten.  Because of that we invest our lives in all kinds of things in hopes of leaving a lasting legacy.  But what to you want to be remembered for?  For the amount of money you left in your back account, or the size of your home?  Do you want people to remember how you put yourself first?  We all want to leave a legacy that matters!  We want to be remembered for what matters!  So what are you investing in?

This week our Good Life series continues with our final specific focus on money.  Pastor Matt explores what it means to live in the freedom that comes from a commitment to generosity.

Money is never ultimately about money.  Money is always about trust and where our hope is found.  Come listen in as Pastor Jeremy continues the conversation about what it means to be financially reconciled to God.

“It’s not uncommon to hear people say that they are overwhelmed by financial anxiety, and while many people have experienced a spiritual reconciliation with God, many are still in need of a financial reconciliation with God."  Pastor Jeremy leads us through the story of a man burdened by financial shame and how an encounter with Jesus changed everything.

"What does generosity do for people? Is the conventional wisdom right? If you give it away, do you lose it? Or is the unconventional wisdom right? That the more you give, the more you gain?” Listen and be inspired by the amazing faith of a single mom who dared to put God first in her life, and the incredible blessing that came as a result.

Jesus didn't shy away from the topic of money and resources, recognizing that it is a key indicator of our hearts and values. Listen to this podcast as Pastor Nathan continues the conversation of The Good Life sermon series by exposing the #1 myth about money in our world today.

Sometimes Christians live as though Jesus was only concerned that we believe certain things about him and we become more concerned to make a point than to make a difference. But the path to significance and experience of the Good Life doesn't rest on the belief of a set of intellectual propositions, but rather on the dominant characteristic demonstrated in and through Jesus' life. Listen to the podcast as Pastor Jeremy continues our series on 'The Good Life.'

Whether you consider yourself a religious person or not, you are being spiritually formed.  Our inner being is being spiritually formed all the time by what we watch, by who we listen to, by what we read.  In fact, marketers are masters of spiritual formation.  But what if someone wanted to be shaped by a more reliable Source of information on how to experience the Good Life?  Is change really possible?  How?  Listen to the podcast as Pastor Jeremy continues the conversation about the Good Life.

Who has the Good Life?  And Who is a Good Person?  These are questions that every person in every age has an opinion on.  But who is a reliable teacher for this pursuit?  And whose life are we seeking to pattern our life after?  Listen in as Pastor Jeremy opens the conversation about these things...
