Scripture: Exodus 17:1-7

We're continuing our series following the Israelites on their wilderness journey. In this message, we talk about holding onto faith even in the midst of our doubts.

Scripture: Exodus 16:1-5, 11-20

"God's provision is stronger than our preparation." God's miraculous provision of manna in the wilderness for the Israelites teaches us that the Lord will always provide for our needs - the question is will we trust him to be our provider?

Scripture: Exodus 15:22-27

"It's not enough to believe God exists - we have to believe God is here, now, in this moment." The wilderness is a place of testing - will we trust that the Lord is with us in the hard times or not?

Scripture: Joel 2:1-2, 12-17; 2 Corinthians 5:20b-6:10; Luke 4:1-13

As we gather to enter into the Lenten season together, we reflect on how fasting helps us wean our hearts off of earthly attachments to draw that much closer to Jesus.

Scripture: Exodus 14:5-18

We kick off a new series following the Israelites through their journey in the wilderness. As much as we want the rescue story of the Exodus, or the triumph story of entering into the Promised Land, the wilderness is an inevitable part of the life of following Jesus. But there are lessons about what it means to live for him that can only be learned in the wilderness.

Scripture: Matthew 6:19-34

Jesus calls us to seek first the Kingdom of God in all our affairs. So much of our hurry comes from seeking other kingdoms. In this sermon, we talk about Jesus' call to simplicity as an antidote to hurry.

Scripture: Luke 4:42-44

Jesus said no to good things because he'd already said yes to something better. In this sermon, we learn to enter the unhurried life by imitating Jesus, saying yes to our calling and no to everything else.

Scripture: Romans 12:2, Deuteronomy 6:4-9

"What gets your attention gets your heart, and what gets your heart gets you." In this sermon, we explore the challenges our digital age poses to our journey of becoming more like Jesus and what we can do about it.

Scripture: Luke 10:38-42

"Our hurry problem is really a fear problem." In this sermon, we consider hear Jesus' call in our hurriedness to surrender all our wants and cares to him and instead pursue the one thing we actually need.
