You'll never experience a radical transformation of your life until you understand and treat Jesus as King. In this message, we'll construct a picture of what it looks like to crown Him King.

3. “Ain’t No Rock Gonna Take My Place"

OK, ABC, here's one thing I know: we all are a party waiting to happen! By the time this storm blows over, the walls in our homes will need new paint jobs due to the clawing they've received. So in this message, we're looking at a text that demonstrates even Jesus is no party-pooper, but rather, he's a party waiting to happen.

1. What He Offers
2. How He Makes It Possible
3. How We Can Receive It

Text: John 2:1-12

An encounter with Jesus rarely generated a moderate response. He either made people so angry they wanted to kill him, or he electrified them so much they wanted to follow him. In this message, we'll look at one of Jesus' teachings that is a quintessential example of this. And the topic? Control. Who is in the "driver's seat?"

1. Tenants and the Owner
2. Tenants and the Servants
3. Tenants and the Son
4. Jesus’ Verdict

Text: Matthew 21:33-45

Receiving or showing mercy just isn't comfortable. Mercy, with all of its baggage, can leave us wondering how we should even go about starting this difficult journey. In this message, we'll look at the starting point of mercy and the surprisingly good news it holds for everyone.

1. Mercy Sees With Compassion
2. Mercy Isn't Cowardly
3. Mercy Is Costly

Text: Luke 10:25-37

Mercy may be one of the hardest things to show to someone when they have wronged you. Perhaps even more difficult is when it happens within the local church. Can we actually forgive our brother and sister from the heart? In this message, we will look at the importance of forgiveness and its relationship to the cross.

1. How Often Should I Forgive?
2. Why Should I Forgive?
3. What Happens If I Don't Forgive?

Text: Matthew 18:21-35
