When people of faith trust in a collective hope of a future beyond their lives, resurrection bursts into the here and now. Join us as we develop an imagination great enough to envision a God-soaked future shaped by the resurrection of Christ.

It is important to take a step back and see how we have grown—both individually and as a spiritual community. As we reflect, we may find ourselves filled with an energizing gratitude. From that place of thankfulness, we can take hold of the encouragement we need to nurture every desire for goodness and every deed prompted by faith. Let us receive all that we need from what God has done among us, so that we may be strengthened for what lies ahead.

Do you feel stuck—like the energy for life, progress, and action is just out of reach? The practice of asking for forgiveness may be the key that unlocks the flow again. Join us as we explore how humility, honesty, and grace can transform even the most stagnant places in our souls.

How do we pursue justice when the times seem unfavorable? Paul challenges Timothy and us as readers to continue the work of an evangelist, learning from the Scriptures while challenging and correcting each other to grow closer to God's vision of heaven on earth.

What if God’s work isn’t about breaking into the world from above, but flowing through it from within—and through us? Instead of hovering outside of nature, waiting to intervene, could God move in the waters, the soil, and the shared actions of human cooperation? In a world often searching for spectacle, we’re reminded that grace is found not in the sky, but in our participation with God in the living, enchanted world around us.
Join us as guest preacher, Dr. Chris Hanson, shares this message. 

Hate may feel powerful, but it cannot deliver what it promises. It silences our deeper emotions, cuts us off from real community, and leaves us vulnerable to destructive patterns of thought and action. It cannot build the world we long to see, not in our neighborhoods and not in our own hearts. Together we’ll confront the dead end of hate and turn toward a path that can lead us out of it.

Building a future on the foundation of hope requires more than what each of us has to give, but never less. When we trust that our faithfulness will be met by the faithfulness of others and the blessing of God, we can create the future we collectively want. Listen in for part two of Building a Future.

Building a future on the foundation of hope is often the faithful response of the people of God in times of fear and uncertainty. This Sunday, we celebrate 15 years of life for Christ City Church. Together, we will hold space to rejoice, dream, remember, and grieve as we build a future on an unshakeable foundation.

Have you ever found yourself serving, but did it begrudgingly or out of drudgery? We can live most of our lives this way. But there’s another way— when we recover our hearts, we find a deep reservoir to serve from. It is one of the great inexhaustible resources of humanity. To serve with heart is a key part of our mission at Christ City Church.
Join us as we reconnect with our hearts and find our power to serve with this renewable energy source.

All of us have been shown different paths to follow—some even called the path of Jesus. But any path that promises constant wins, continuous growth, or a reliance on willpower that enables us to achieve all that we ever wanted will not lead us to the life we were made for. The path Jesus offers in the Gospels is one of great sacrifice and loss as the doorway into fullness and abundance. If we have the courage to walk it, we may discover a way shaped by heart, wonder, and purpose.
