Why is discipleship so difficult? What happens if we saw it the same way that Jesus did?

On All Saints Sunday we remember the saints who have gone before, but what would happen if we began living as saints today? What would happen if we took up the same foundations that the disciples did when Jesus first called them?

Rev. Chad Foster finishes our series on this incredible Psalm with a gift from God to us.

It is more than a funeral song. It is a hymn of life. A hymn of promise where God's care of his sheep is truly remarkable.

It is one of the most recognizable works of literature in the world. It is often considered a funeral reading or something to calm us when we are facing distress and trial. But this Psalm is a word of life to meditate on. Today we turn our attention to The Lord who is our shepherd.

Bishop Al Gwinn stepped into the pulpit to begin Pastor Appreciation month and encourage us with a special word for the church.

God always answers. God is always able.

There is a great mystery between God's answers to those prayers and the specific prayers we end up having. This week we explore the language that wounds and the help we find in Jesus' own disappointment in prayer.

No one WANTS to be obnoxious. No one also wants to imagine Jesus inviting us to be obnoxious. We certainly don't want to be obnoxious to God. Yet in this story, Jesus tells his disciples we are to "always pray and never give up" like a certain widow who drove a pagan leader crazy.
