Matthew 7:24-27

What if we took Jesus at His word? Discipleship is all about becoming more like Jesus. We talk a lot about the fruit of our discipleship as we engage in the six marks of discipleship. It all begins and is sustained by being with Jesus.

(Pastor C. Whitehead, Frye Farm Campus)

Hebrews 5:1-10

Jesus is greater than any other high priest, even Melchizedek. He did the work of a priest while He walked the earth, becoming the source of eternal salvation.

(Pastor J. Hartland, Crossroads Campus)

Hebrews 4:14-16

Jesus was tempted like us, but He didn’t sin. As a result, we now have access to God. We can confidently draw near to Him in our times of need.

(Pastor C. Whitehead, Frye Farm Campus)

Hebrews 4:1-13

God invites us to rest in Him. It’s called Sabbath. We rest from all work one day a week so that we can delight in God.

(Pastor B. Phipps, Jeannette Campus)

Hebrews 3:7-19

The Israelites hardened their hearts against God in the wilderness. It’s incredibly important that we encourage one another every day so that our hearts won’t be hardened and turn away from God.

(Pastor C. Whitehead, Frye Farm Campus)

John 20:1-18

When John got to the tomb, he saw and believed. We don’t know what Peter believed when he arrived. What we do know is that neither of them understood what was actually going on with the resurrection. John saw and believed. Thomas said he wouldn’t believe unless he saw. What we see all around us can cause us to doubt or struggle in our faith or even to come to faith. No matter what you may be experiencing, Easter offers you hope, even when you can’t see very far.

Good Friday, the day we will forever remember as the crucifixion of our savior, Jesus. The day he gave His life on the cross, the clearest picture of God’s love. He took our place, carrying our sin and shame. Through the reading of scripture detailing His Passion, we can reflect in gratitude and awe, remembering the cost of our redemption.

Holy Thursday provides an opportunity to revisit the Last Supper, the final meal Jesus shared with His disciples. He broke bread with them and humbly washed their feet, showing love through service. We explore the origins of the Passover meal and the way Jesus transformed the entire meaning of this traditional meal into a sacrament we now celebrate as Holy Communion.

John 12:12-19

On Palm Sunday, we do not need to create a “you were there” experience. Why? Because God is already here and we are His in Jesus. John encourages us to join the disciples, not in the mesmerizing mess that is the entry into Jerusalem, but in the clearer contemplation that follows. John encourages us to remember how God comes to us. Have you received the triumph that is yours in Jesus?

(Pastor C. Whitehead, Frye Farm Campus)

Hebrews 3:1-6

One of the reoccurring themes early in this letter is that Jesus is greater. Some would argue greatness comes from faithfulness. Jesus is greater than all the faithfulness of Moses because He is the builder of God’s house. He is greater because He is God’s Son. We are called to faithfully hold firmly to our confidence and hope in Jesus.
