What do you need when you find yourself at the end of your road? The book of Daniel starts at the end of a road. Daniel’s country has been invaded. His king’s political maneuvering has failed. It looks like God lost. Daniel teaches us that God often starts working when our road ends.

Passage: Daniel 1:1-2

The Bible presents God as a glorified party planner. How do we align our hearts and wallets to him?

Too often churches talk about what they want from people rather than for people. Today we're talking about our desires for you when it comes to money.

God likes your neighbor so much he gave them a sure fire way to experience his presence…you!

We find an enemy. We draw lines in the sand. What if Jesus wants to draw a circle where we’ve drawn a line? Join us as we discuss how Jesus does conflict differently.

John 15:18-27

The problem of evil creates barriers to faith for many of us. We can’t put our faith in a God we don’t trust. The Bible doesn’t ignore the problem of evil. The Bible is God’s interaction with the problem of evil. As Judas betrays Jesus we see three clear strategies God has for dealing with the problem of evil.
