Who is Jesus to you? As Brian Sumner points out in this message, if Jesus is God then you should live every second like he is. Only through knowing Jesus can we separate truth from lies and truly know the God of the universe.

If you truly grasp what Jesus did for you, you should be inspired and compelled to love like he does. In this teaching, Andrew Barris unpacks the topic of love without fear and how we should respond to God's outpouring of compassion toward us.

Teaching through 1 John 4:7-12, Andrew Schey reminds us that the cross is the full expression of God's perpetual heart toward us. As followers of Jesus, we must love people extravagantly, wholeheartedly, and openly. In this way, we can illustrate God's heart in a tangible way and share his presence with those around us.

How do we discern the truth? In this teaching, Andrew Schey breaks down how to recognize false teaching, noting that unbelief characterizes our faith just as much as belief does.

Diving into a passage about our assurance in Christ, Andrew Schey discusses how our confidence comes from God's actions - not our own. As we get our minds to a place of peace before God, our lives will be marked by truth and love in action. Just like God's Word continually reminds us, practicing love isn't optional when you're in His family.

At the halfway point in our series, Live THE Truth, Andrew Schey exposes how we hide the murderous capacities of our hearts behind politeness and subtle exclusion. Though we may be externally careful and polite as Christians, our hearts are often not that different from the rest of the world. What would the church look like today if we did away with distinctions and simply loved ALL people?

In this message, Andrew Barris encourages us through the scriptures, affirming that when God brings us into His family He also gives us a family resemblance. Though grace is freely given, as children of God we must pursue Christ-likeness with tenacity and avoid nurturing our sin nature. A truly personal relationship with God will result in increased personal transformation as we become more and more like our Father.

Do we know the Lord so well that we can recognize the counterfeit? This week, Brock Snook asks the hard questions as we study 1 John 2:18-29 and the deception that tries to lead us astray. Unlike the many voices surrounding us that claim to know the "real" truth, we have received the Holy Spirit who is truly the only teacher we need to make sense of God's Word and His plan for our lives.

Continuing our series in 1 John, Andrew Schey points out that though we are in the world, we are not of it. As followers of the way of Jesus, we are the salt of the earth and light of the world, enabled by the Holy Spirit to love one another as Jesus first loved us. But what does it look like to love the people of the world without loving the world itself?

In this message, Andrew Schey teaches from 1 John 2:12-14, as John the apostle reassures Christians of their salvation, dismissing false teaching that would cause doubt and affirming they are truly saved in Jesus’ name and really know God. The challenge in this affirmation is for Christians in one life stage or another to take hold of the salvation given to us and to forge ahead in confidence and strength as we support one another in Christian community.
