As human beings, our natural tendency is to focus on ourselves, as we try to cover up our flaws. But outward appearances can be deceiving, resulting in some serious consequences. We’re continuing our series in the book of Acts, titled SENT. Pastor J.D. explains how God’s forgiveness is the only real covering!

It’s been said that Christianity is more like a relationship than a religion. Religions are about what you do, while the gospel is about what God did for you. But if that’s the case, why do Christians still follow certain rules? Why do we still go to church, read our Bibles, and try to obey the Ten Commandments? Pastor J.D. answers these questions as he continues our series called, Freedom in the In-Between.  

Freed from the Law, for the Law

Next time you’re in a bookstore, go take a peek at the self-improvement section. You’ll see rows and rows of books promising to unlock the secret to a better life. But no matter how many diets you follow or how much positive thinking you do, none of those tricks are going to fill your deepest needs or fix your greatest problems! As Pastor J.D. continues our series called, “Freedom in the In-Between,” he explains the only way for us to truly change and be set free from our own sinful hearts. 

Freed to Change, Part 2

Our Western culture is highly individualistic. We all want to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and make our own way in the world. We don’t want to be dependent on anyone. But Pastor J.D. cautions us that a self-made mindset doesn’t work when it comes to holiness! We’re getting an important and humbling reminder about our dependence on God as we continue our study in Galatians called, “Freedom in the In-Between.”  

Freed to Change

Most everyone agrees that freedom is a good thing. And yet, freedom inevitably leads to conflict. If I’m free to have my opinion, then you’re free to disagree! But as Pastor J.D. continues our study of Galatians, he’s explaining how our freedom in Christ actually leads to greater unity! We’re being reminded of our ultimate identity that overcomes every difference. It’s part of our series called, “Freedom in the In-Between.”

Freed To Unite, Part 2

If you turn on the news these days or browse through Facebook for a bit, it will be pretty apparent that we’re living in turbulent times. Emotions are running high over issues like politics and race relations. Our world seems so divided. And tragically, that same attitude often creeps into our churches! As Pastor J.D. continues our study in Galatians, he’s challenging us to pursue unity—for the sake of the gospel. It’s part of our series called, “Freedom in the In-Between.”
