We Make Bad gods

Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor

Our broken hearts lead us to make broken gods. Today we hear Paul's words as he calls out our desire to be in control and have life our way. Every one of us has the tendency to make ourselves the center of our world and build life the way we want it. Can we face this surrender all of our lives to God's good design?

Our Hearts are Broken

Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor

The wrath of God is upon us because of our sinful hearts! Not an exciting message… but something we need to hear. We can not know the good news without understanding the bad news. We can not respond to amazing grace if we don't see how broken and undeserving we are. This passage is often used to point out other peoples sin. But what we find today is that Paul uses this example to raise all of our understanding of each of our desperately broken hearts.

The Gospel Calls us to Be ALL IN

Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor

When we read Romans through the filter of our personal salvation story we miss the point of the letter. The Gospel we find in the letter of Romans is bigger, deeper, and more powerful than just a brief outline of salvation. As Paul writes this letter he unfolds the truth that the Gospel is a timeless encounter between the God of the universe and sinful humanity that can't help but pull the reader into the story of the transformative pursuit of the Gospel. This is a Gospel that calls us all to BE ALL IN.

Getting Over It

John Reynolds, Family Ministries Pastor

Jesus gave us the commandment to love one another for our good and His glory. But we often don't do this well. Sometimes we are the ones who offend people, and other times we are the offended ones, so what do we do? Join us this week as we look at what God's Word says about getting over it!

To Live or Stand

Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor

We often turn to anger when we are offended. Whether we like to admit it or not, this anger shuts life down and closes doors of opportunity. Today, we see the life that Jesus lived is in contrast to this angry response. Throughout the Bible we are called to be unoffendable and at peace in tense situations. We find that this lifestyle is more productive in leading people to life and helping us be a light in a dark world.

BE ANGRY... but don't be

Michael Lodge, Speaking Pastor

We live in a world and culture that finds offense around every corner. There is always something to be offended by, angry about, or passionately debating with all our enemies and friends. But is that the way Jesus leads us to live? Today we deconstruct the thought that we are commanded to live in righteous anger. At closer inspection we find Paul calling us to live the unoffendable life Jesus molded for us. Can we lay down the burden of anger that we have held onto for so long?

Today we wrap up our Dwell series with Psalm 63. In this Psalm, David passionately declares his love and worship of God. David's ability to live in this state of mind shaped everything about his life. Living in praise shaped his posture and perspective through life's hardest circumstances. When we learn to dwell in God's presence we begin to live the the life we were made for.

Psalm 139

Zac Price, Middle School Pastor

Psalm 139 is all about God's Omniscience. He knows the future, the past and the present. He is in total control and holds the whole world in His hands. Do you trust Him?
