How to be a Boss and Treat a Boss Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor When we don't understand the context of life we miss the true story of our lives. Wisdom helps us see the context of life not being about us and the true story of living for the King. Today, we see how this wisdom helps shape our understanding of power and authority. As a boss or a worker we find satisfaction in working for the King and His purpose. Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.

Let Go, Hold Fast, Go With Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor The students had a chance to live Proverbs out while on the Serve 2024 Mexico Mission Trip. As we walk with the students through their experience we will also walk through the three main questions that Proverbs continuously puts before us. Do we know what to let go of? Do we know how to hold fast to Him? Are we going with Him in His purpose for life? Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.

The Antidote to Pride John Reynolds, Adult Ministries Pastor The world tells us life is about us, that we are and should be the focus of our own attention, that we should go after and get ours, that we are the masters of our own domains. Yet the book of Proverbs describes this as the way that leads to destruction and even the root of all sin. Join us as we look at pride and its antidote, humility.

A Tale of Two Roads Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor You can't be on two different roads at the same time. So which road you find yourself on really matters. Today, we start our series on Proverbs - a book dedicated to expounding on the two roads of life. What do you need most in life right now? The King passes the answer on to us today. What you need most in life is wisdom. A wisdom that will protect you from foolishness and help you flourish in life in every season. Which way are you on?

Stop Attending Church and Start Being the Church Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor We all want to be a part of something big. A purpose, a movement, and an influence to the world around us. So why would we settle to just be lost in the crowd? Paul calls us to get our name into the movement of the Gospel! Jesus didn't die for us to attend church. He rose from the grave so that we would rise into the movement and live a life worthy of His great name. We are called to BE THE CHURCH!

The Gospel Lived Out Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor What is the book of Romans about? Paul's life. What was Paul's life about? Living out the Gospel of Jesus to the world. Paul wraps up  his letter to the Romans  with a call to follow his life as he follows the life of Jesus. Paul directly challenges the Church at Rome to become partners with him in the Gospel of Jesus. As we finish reading the book of Romans together, we have to ask ourselves - are we living out the book of Romans together? What are our lives about?

Sacrificial Unity Works Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor Our unity that comes from our understanding of the Gospel does more than just display an astonishing community to the world. Our sacrificial unity also works toward fulfilling the mission of the entire Bible. When we live our unity out, we also live out the core of what the Gospel is. We can't fall for the temptation to divide over lesser things. When we unite around Jesus, we will fulfill the mission He began at the formation of the world.

Humility, Unity, and the Gospel Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor Can we be a church that agrees on absolutely every issue? Nope. And that’s not the point of our community. The Church has always been a people of different backgrounds, stories, and faith journeys. Because of that, we will arrive at different opinions and convictions. So, how do we keep what is primary and humbly live in the messiness of opinions? Today, Paul leads us to find the path that the world is looking for. By centralizing the Gospel as the main thing in life, we can find a way to live in a unique community. Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.

Transformative Gospel Lives and Politics Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor You will know how deeply one believes in something by the convictions with which they live.  The same is true in the Gospel.  If our lives have been truly changed by the grace and love of God then every area of our life should reflect that change... Even in how we engage in politics.  In Romans 13, Paul shows us how the Gospel should influence how we engage in a government and culture that is often at odds with the heart of God.  Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.

Grafted In Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor God's plan from the beginning was to redeem the world through His Son Jesus Christ.  The end has already been foretold.  One day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord.  We find ourselves in the middle of the story and Paul paints a picture of many nations being grafted into the family.  What does it look like to be a part of God's kingdom purpose plan?

Full House  Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor As Paul brings this family discussion to a close, he draws our attention to what can define the Family of God as God continues to work toward His purpose. It can be so easy for us to allow our circumstances or the darkness of the times to shape our attitude. When it seems like the world is falling apart, Paul reminds us that God is always at work.  If we can trust God, then that trust should shape our heart.

Step Into Purpose Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor God has not failed and it’s not too late for rebellious Israel or the sinful Gentiles. Have you ever wondered when is it too late for someone? Today, Paul shares the Good News that is available to all and challenges us to step into the purpose of sharing this Good News. Click on the links below for additional Cascade Church resources.

Plotline and Purpose Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor Paul continues to address the question, “Did God fail?” Paul moves through the Old Testament in this passage and shows us how God has used His mercy and people’s rebellion to move toward His purpose of fulfilling all His promises. Paul uses this history to not only explain how God has worked, but also to call the readers to respond. Where are you in the plotline of God’s purpose?

Family Matters Family really matters! The first century people thought in collective terms of family, tribe, and nation. In Romans 9, Paul begins to trace the family tree and show how God has worked through His chosen family from the beginning of time. God has not failed! He continues to give His family an identity, promises, and the purpose of Jesus Christ. Will we find our place in the family?

Where do you place your trust? Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor What do you really want for life?  What do you really want to trust in for life?  These words radically change this question.  Trust is vital in finding a meaningful life.  Where we place our trust has a profound impact on what happens in our life.  Today, Jesus asks us a question to spend the week pondering.  Where do you place your trust?
