Do we want to follow Jesus or something else? Is there something holding us back from wanting Jesus completely? In a stand alone sermon, Cole Moog helps us think through what we want and why we should want Jesus.

What did Jesus really mean when he said, “blessed are the pure in heart”? It actually has very little to do with purity rings and a whole lot more to do with how we live our entire lives. Emilee McEnery continues our sermon series though the beatitudes, "Blessed."

Fear is a powerful motivator. For many of us, fear of what other people will think about us leads us to shy away from following Jesus today. What do we do with the fact that Jesus says, “blessed are the persecuted…”? Justin Derks continues our sermon series “Blessed.”

We live in a culture that is often divided, divisive, at odds, suspicious and angry at each other. How should Christians respond? Jesus has an idea that’s as radical in our day as it was in his. Kyle Richter continues our Tuesday night series, “Blessed.”

Jesus says, “Blessed are the merciful,” but what is mercy and how do we show it in a culture that’s often outraged, divided, and in disagreement on almost everything? Kyle Richter continues our Tuesday night series, “Blessed.”

For 2000 years, Christians have been claiming that a man named Jesus died a death he didn’t deserve, was buried, and on the third day, physically rose from the grave. Did it really happen? More importantly, does it really matter? The answers to those questions changes everything about us. As Easter approaches, Kyle Richter talks about Jesus’s resurrection and what it means for us.

Jesus says, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." We all know what it's like to be hungry and thirsty, but what does it mean to hunger and thirst for Jesus? On top of that, what does it mean to be filled by him? Michael Porter Senior continues our Tuesday night series, “Blessed."

Jesus says, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth,” But what does that mean? Is Jesus asking us to be weak, or is he actually asking us to use our strength to build his kingdom instead of our own? Jeff Parrett continues our Tuesday night series, “Blessed."

How do you respond to sin in your life? Jesus says, “Blessed are those who mourn,” sin. But not all mourning is created equal. There are right and wrong reasons that sin makes us sad. What are they? Kyle Richter continues our Tuesday night series, “Blessed."

According to a professor at Yale, “Our intuitions about what will make us happy… are totally wrong.” She isn’t the only one that thinks this though. Jesus would agree. What then, will give us what we’re looking for? It might not be what you’d expect. Kyle Richter kicks off our new Tuesday night series, “Blessed.”

Scripture, research and our own intuitions tell us we were not created to be alone. We long for and were made to live in community with others. However, we’ve all experienced dysfunction in our friendships due to sin. Justin helps us strive for godly friendships by looking at examples in the bible as we continue our series, “Dysfunctional.”

Why is my family like this? Will this ever get easier? If you’ve asked those questions, you’re not alone. Family is messy. The Bible show us that sin has been distorting these relationships for thousands of years. So is there hope? This week Alex helps us think through family dysfunction and how Jesus is committed to redeeming the story.

Our culture tells us that the key to happiness is looking inside ourselves, figuring out what we want most, and then going for whatever it is. In other words, “own our wanting.” Jesus sees it differently. Real happiness, real joy, real meaning doesn’t come from making life all about us, it comes when we make our lives all about him. Kyle Richter continues our series, “Dysfunctional."

Jesus doesn’t just want you to believe in him. He wants you to be with him. Sometimes though, our sin gets in the way. It blinds us from seeing God clearly, and because we can’t see clearly, we replace God with someone or something else. But will that lead to the life we’re looking for? Kyle Richter kicks off our series, “Dysfunctional."

It is safe to say that we have all failed. Big or small, we have all failed to love God and love others. So, not if but when we fail, how will we respond? Justin wraps up our sermon series, “Encountering Jesus” by looking at Peter in John 21 as an example of someone who failed, yet shows us an example of how to love Jesus when we mess up.

How did Jesus spend the last night of his life? That answer might surprise you. Even more, where Jesus thinks you and I will find real happiness. Kyle continues our series “Encountering Jesus,” from John 13:1-5, 12-17.

Ever feeling like you’re wasting your life? With so many different ways to spend our time and energy its hard to know if we are wasting our lives or not. The good news is that Jesus cuts through the noise and helps us find the only way to know we aren’t wasting our lives. Jensen Holt Mcnair speaks from John 12 to help us hear Jesus’ answer.

Many of the religious leaders of Jesus’s day couldn’t see Jesus for who he really was. Are we in danger of making the same mistake? It’s only when we realize how blind we are that God gives us the eyes to see Jesus for who he really is. Kyle continues our series, “Encountering Jesus,” from John 9:1-41.

How do you know if you are truly following Jesus? In John 8, Jesus tells those following him that his true disciples are those abiding in him. Justin helps us unpack what it means to abide and gives a few practical ways we can abide as believers and followers of Jesus as he continues our series, “Encountering Jesus,” from John 8:31-36.

Ever thought about your main motivations for why you do what you do? Maybe if you were honest with yourself, you care a lot about what the people around you think. Hear Jensen challenge us to live our lives for something far better than gaining the approval of others as she continues our series, “Encountering Jesus,” from John 5:44.
