Decatur City Church

We all have a tendency to drift from God, but we’re never too far from God to restore our relationship with him.

When we get lost, it’s often the result of our own decisions—we wander, drift, or even run away from God. In the parable of the lost son, Jesus sheds light on how God views us when our choices lead us away—and how he responds when we’re ready to come home.

If the only things that concern you are about you, there is work to do. Ultimately, we save ourselves from ourselves by choosing not to be all about ourselves.

If something about the world is broken and it breaks your heart, there’s an opportunity to be a part of fixing it.

We believe following Jesus makes your life better and makes you better at life, and we want our local church to inspire people to follow him. In this message, Andy Stanley talks about how and why we do church the way we do.

The next time you feel insignificant or unqualified, remember the Christmas story. It’s a powerful reminder that our worth comes from God. He sees us, loves us, and wants to partner with us to invite others into God’s family.

During this time of year, we engage our imaginations as we embrace the magic of Christmas. Let’s also imagine what the world would be like if we fully embraced the way of Jesus—the way of love.

Jesus came to show us not only the way back to God, but the way back to others as well. As people who have been reconciled to God, we should pursue reconciliation with people whenever possible.

Have you ever felt like you've lost your way? Usually by the time we realize we’re lost, we’ve been lost for quite some time. And we instinctively ask, "What should I do?" Instead, there’s a different question to consider.
