In the 4th part of the Beautiful One series, Pastor Erwin McManus emphasizes the power of having a desperate faith.


Pulling from Matthew chapter 15, Jesus encounters a Cannanite woman who is rejected and seen as an outcast in that cultural time period. She comes to him begging that he would heal her daughter who is demon possessed -- but his disciples try to send her away.


Testing her, Jesus responds with the cultural narrative that was circling her situation, halling her a dog and saying "I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel."


But she remained steadfast in asking Jesus, not letting the all-too-familiar humiliation stop her from asking for her miracle. 


Jesus then responds to her humility saying "you have great faith" and heals her daughter.


If you are ready to push past the narratives that have kept you from Jesus and desperately seek his movement in your life, don't miss this life-changing episode!

This past Sunday Pastor Erwin McManus spoke on the importance of living connected not only to God, but to the gift of the Church.


Sharing from the book of Corinthians, he gave us three essential truths from the scriptures to inform the way we relate to God and others:


1. We are a unique part of the whole.
2. We are not whole when we are apart.
3. We are strongest when we all do our part.


When we out our uniqueness within the community God has given us, we become the strongest version of ourselves.


Are you ready to discover the importance of living a connected life?

Three Bodied Problem

This weekend, Pastor Erwin McManus brought new insights that challenged us to step into a new level of connection to God.


Speaking from the book of Galatians, he shared that there are 3 levels of connection to God:
1: The universal good 
2: The adopted child
3: The heir apparent


We experience the universal good as we live our lives enjoying the blessings that God gives to all of humanity whether we believe in him or not. The adopted child has a relationship with God and experiences his grace, but the heir apparent has stepped into the maturity needed to inherit the life that God is longing to give them.


Are you ready to take your relationship with God to the next level?

This Easter, Pastor Erwin McManus invites us to step into the story our souls long for.
 
He shares from the book of Matthew that Jesus created a tear in the fabric of time and space when he died on the cross. 
 
The separation between God and humanity caused by fear, despair, and hate was torn in two as Jesus conquered darkness and rose from the dead.
 
When the tomb was found empty, it shattered humanity’s understanding of the world. Jesus gave us an invitation to experience an eternal reality as we entered into a relationship with him. 
 
Are you ready to step into the story that will change your life forever?
