Each week of this teaching series, we look at personal encounters with Jesus in the Gospels and wonder: If you asked this person why they follow Jesus, what would they say?

Pastor Jim teaches on the church as God's people called to declare God's praises and to live visibly among the world.

Christ gives different gifts to the church and the leadership gifts Paul highlights exist specifically to equip the rest of the body for works of service. Nobody is off the hook. Everyone is called to serve.

Becoming like Jesus in every way happens not through solo spiritual effort but through a body where every part works together, anchored in truth, speaking that truth in love to one another. We grow in community.

Unity in the body is grounded in something bigger than any of us. That unity is practiced through humility, gentleness, patience, and bearing with one another. Belonging is worth what it demands.

The teaching series on the prophet Elisha concludes as Pastor Eric teaches on 2 Kings 6:8-23.

In 2 Kings 6:1-7, Elisha performs a miracle for a seemingly small purpose: to repair a borrowed axe.

Right in the middle of Israel's collapse--sandwiched between bad king after bad king--2 Kings presents strange little stories about the prophet Elisha that show that in the middle of the mess, God is still at work.

“Your servant has nothing...except a small jar of olive oil.” Pastor Courtney Wilson continues the study of Elisha by teaching on the familiar story of the widow's oil.

Pastor Eric starts a five-week series focused specifically on the life and ministry of the prophet Elisha. This week: How he got the job in the first place. And along the way, he answers three questions that will set up the entire rest of this series.
