In this message from the book of Philippians, Pastor Curtis unpacks a passage that speaks to a problem very prevalent today, namely that of anxiety. While society offers many different solutions to this problem, the type of peace that is the true antidote comes only through Christ. When we bring our cares before God and set our hearts and minds on him, we will begin to experience the peace that can never be taken away from us.

Faith the Facts

One of the most inspiring chapters in the Bible is Hebrews 11, often referred to as the "Great Hall of Faith." But while the stories contained there are indeed powerful, we shouldn't regard the people in them as perfect or their faith as unattainable. In this week's message, Pastor J.D. begins our series through Hebrews 11 by helping us see what faith looks like in practice. Through the examples of Abel and Enoch, we're reminded that true faith is demonstrated when we believe in and act on God's promises—even when others around us don't. 

The Great Hall of Faith

While the issues at the front and center of American politics in 2024 are different from those that the religious leaders highlighted during Jesus' day, they certainly aren't any less contentious. In this week's message from Mark 12, Pastor Bryan shows us how Jesus navigated stormy political waters with grace—and how we can do the same. When we recognize that it should be our faith that drives our politics (and not the other way around), we can then approach the upcoming election season in a way that honors both God and other people.

Gospel Witness in Political Chaos

With six months to go until Election Day, the rhetoric from news outlets and social media is likely to become increasingly combative. For Christians, one thing is certain: Our political engagement should look different than that of the world. In this week's message, the first of a two-part series, Pastor J.D. examines Mark 1 and Luke 2, drawing out the implications of Jesus' rule in a world hostile to it—both then and now. As followers of Jesus, our vote is important, but even more important is our witness to a watching world.  

A Political Gospel

These days, it's not exactly popular to claim the existence of absolute truth. It's even less popular to claim that such truth is embodied in the person of Jesus, the one who is the only way to salvation. In this week's message from John 14, Pastor J.D. shows us the importance of what is perhaps Jesus' most controversial "I am" statement: "I am the way, and the truth, and the life." Yet, this statement isn't primarily about a set of principles to live by, or even having the correct answers to every theological question. Instead, it's about truly knowing and having a relationship with the Savior of the world.
