Why is it so hard to stop?

Even when we take a break, turn off our phones, or go on vacation, that restless feeling lingers.

In Luke 6:1-11, we explore an ancient conflict over rest, a bold claim that changed everything, and the surprising reason why true peace isn't found in slowing down -- but in something deeper.

It seems like an easy choice--until you hear how Jesus flips the script.

Are you angry, anxious, or isolated? You are not alone. Under the surface of these challenging emotions are depths of fear.

How do we face our depths without being crushed by them?

Luke 5:1-11 shows us that Jesus is the Master of Deep waters -- physically and spiritually -- and though your fear runs deep, God's grace runs deeper.

How does this apply to Peter and how does it apply to you? That's what this week's sermon is all about -- finding freedom from fear through Gospel grace.

Does it matter whether or not Jesus really existed? Does it matter whether or not the Biblical account of Jesus is true?

Most of us breeze right through Luke's prologue, 1:1-4, but when we pause and consider Luke's claims, we notice something startling. Luke isn't writing a legend, he's writing a true story -- and this makes all the difference in the world for anyone who wants to know Jesus truly.
