With only 2 weeks left we take a look at one of the most powerful "counterfeit gods": Romantic Love. How does the story of Jacob, Rachel, & Leah reveal how both progressive and traditional cultures take romantic love in the wrong way, and how does the gospel of Jesus free us to find the ultimate love?

Ahh Entertainment, it's our favorite past time in Studio City. But are there limits to what we should enjoy as entertainment? And what part of seeking to be entertained is the very thing we were created for? We walk through John 4:5-30 to learn all of these things.

Today we walked through how money is a tool for great good and potentially great harm. Looking at the story of Jesus and the Rich Young Ruler, we see how Jesus uses money in order to get to the heart of what we truly need.

Steve walks us through the Genesis story of the Tower of Babel, and how it shows us how our good work and success can turn into something that enslaves us.

Our third message from our Mere Shadows series explore how our LA culture often communicates that "Image is Everything". But what do the Scriptures say about how we are to look at our appearance? We explore what true beauty is and a cautionary tale from the story of Jacob, Rachel, & Leah.

The second part of our Mere Shadows series focuses on the idol of "self" as we consider the modern mentality of "Follow Your Heart" and how Jesus tells us we should be led by a very different philosophy.

We start our brand new series "Mere Shadows" looking at the idol of ourselves; that is the idol of our own moral & spiritual performance. We walk through Jesus's parable from Luke 18:9-14, The Parable of the Pharisee & the Tax Collector, and see how it speaks against both religious self-righteousness and irreligious self-righteousness.

Steve walks us through Asaph's struggle with why the arrogant and those who don't love God seem to prosper while God's people don't, and how his perspective changed when he shifted his focus.

Jason walks us through Psalm 37, showing how God is a God who deeply cares about justice which leads us to be active in seeking justice in our community.

Jason walks us through the progression of Psalms 22, 23, and 24, and how it shows us where we were, where we are, and where we will be; all because of what Jesus has done.
