Luke 15:11-31 with Bryan Rouanzoin

As he teaches through the foundational parable of the Lost Sons, Pastor Bryan reminds us how important the picture of God we have is. 

Pastor Bryan goes deeper in The Apprentice Loop, a practical pattern to invite discipleship to Jesus in our ordinary life -- our frustrations, reactions, numbness, etc. 

The Apprentice Loop

Notice. Name. Consent. Align. Abide.

Matthew 11:25–30 with Bryan Rouanzoin

Spiritual formation begins when we step into Jesus’ yoke and learn to obey him not as rule-keeping but as relational trust. Over time, that embodied obedience reshapes our souls from the inside out, forming new reflexes, desires, and loves. As we live beside him, we discover the Father’s true character, gentle and humble, and slowly become like Jesus ourselves.

Romans 5-7 and Mark 12: 29-31 with Bryan Rouanzoin

As Paul describes, we are whole beings made up of parts - with a heart, mind, soul, and body. Pastor Bryan unpacks these parts and how we often end up drifting from the very way of life in Jesus that we are longing for. It is God who can draw these parts together into wholeness. 

Mark 1: 14-20 and 2 Peter 1: 1-11 with Bill Dogterom

Jesus invites his disciples to follow him, and to over time become like Him. He believed that abundance was truly available to us. Pastor Bill emphasizes that it doesn't matter what Jesus believes about us, if we don't believe it ourselves. This teaching invites us to lean in to the invitation of Jesus, to daily add to our faith through embodying the goodness he offers in abundance.
