Christ Journey Church - Messages (Video)

"What's the most I can get from you while giving you the least of me?" It's safe to claim that is how transactional power plays out in our world today. The pursuit of power can be blinding even to the point of believing that whoever has the power makes the truth.

What do you do when you have it all and still feel like it's not enough? Having wealth is like that... it doesn't feel all that wealthy. What if at the end of the day the desire for money isn't about money but about what's really going on in your heart?

Everyday, headlines scream some new scandal of sexual abuse, harassment or assault. Today's message brings us into four conversations Jesus had where the shame, scandal and damage of sexual trauma has been unleashed. See how the medicine of God's love and grace, the antidote for the poison of abuse, is at the cross.

vWould it surprise you to learn Jesus models how to have conversations? He enters into crucial conversations in high stake situations, when the topic really matters, and a person’s identity is on the line. The outcome? A door is opened where there seemed to be no way, and God’s life-changing love is shared.

What is the end game of the Christian faith? What does God really have to offer? Are we willing to risk everything that is important in our lives to follow Him? That's an audacious ask, but then again, the Christ Journey is an audacious ride.

Are there people in your life who have helped you? Been there for you? Someone who inspired and encouraged you? God uses people to help people. The key is being available to Him and then sharing what we've been given so others can experience His love and life.

The Kingdom of God is all around us, but we continually miss it because we make our lives all about us. Perhaps God feels distant to you today, but the truth is He is not distant and apart from us. In practicing daily Bible reflection, discover for yourself the very heart and character of God as being a good God, a close God, and a loving God for you and the world.

God’s purpose is that your life in Christ would bring new personal growth and benefit for His world. But maybe you’re thinking that’s easier said than done. Fear not! This series will introduce you to key beliefs, practices and action steps that will be catalytic to your personal growth. When you stay on the journey of faith, the benefits find you.

If you’re a Christian, by definition it means you consider yourself the object of God’s love, a recipient of His mercy and grace. The power in you is great! But what do you use all that strength for? Is it for show or do you have an ultimate purpose?

Choices yield consequences. Decisions shape destinies and eternities. God so ordered the universe that it responds to decisions. There is a way for you to personally experience an increased flow of love and joy through the choices you make.
