How can we fully appreciate and not take for granted what God has done for us through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ? The ultimate sacrifice was made on our behalf so that we might live into this REDEEMED LIFE. We look to Boaz in the book of Ruth to begin to understand what it truly means to be redeemed.

Most of us are pretty good at pretending our life is Instagram-prefect. But, what if you didn't have to pretend anymore? What if you could actually live your life with such authenticity and truth that the alternate reality was no longer necessary? What a relief that would be? What kind of freedom might that bring? This week we look at John 21:15-19 towards this end.

As Christ followers, our goal is to become holy as our father in heaven is holy. But what does it really mean to be holy? And, for that matter, why should we even try to become holy? Isn’t it enough just to believe in Jesus? Join us in our discussion on the "Sanctified Life" in this week's podcast.

Easter has come and gone, and the celebrations end. Now, we move on, but to what? What's next? We now have a NEW LIFE to live with Christ as Easter people. We look to Romans 6:12-18 to help us navigate on our journey.

Many of us might go through life feeling like we are not enough or that we don't have enough to give. In this Easter message, we look at Mary Magdalene in John 20:11-18 to see how Jesus was able to make her more than enough and become the very first evangelist (bringer of the good news).

How good is your memory? Regardless, there are times that our mind plays tricks on us. Our goal this Maundy Thursday is to approach this time and every time we come to the table with awe, wonder, and amazement, remember ever detail, and truly hear the words from Jesus as though they were being spoken to us directly, "Remember Me." (John 13:1-35)

Once upon a time, as children, we were able to experience and expect awe and wonder in life. As the years go by and the experiences in life get tougher, we become conditioned as adults to be jaded and cynical. So, how can we regain that awe and wonder we once had and be open again to the meaningful and miraculous God might do in our lives? This Palm Sunday we explore John 12:12-19 to help us in this endeavor.

You are not the same person you used to be...and that can be a good thing. In this episode, we explore Ephesians 2:1-10 to see how Paul encourages those in Ephesus and us to allow God to take us through a TRANSFORMATION and become a new creation with Jesus.

We find that REPENTANCE can be difficult, but it can also be joyful and lead to healing, wholeness, and back to a right relationship with God.

What do C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and you have in common? Find out on this week's episode of "Ashes To Ashes" entitled "Deliverance." Our journey takes us to the 121st chapter of the book of Psalms in hopes of finding the help we need find and discovering our purpose when God finally delivers us.
