Partnership with God always means partnership with His people....

God brings good people around us to help bring out the best in us. This is by design. This is the way God meant for us to thrive … and not just survive. We were meant for partnership.

God uses our gifts to change our world but He also changes us as we give...

We're not just changing lives and meeting needs, but we're also saying thank you when we give it's like “God, you've given us so much. Thank you. Here's some back.” The question is, are we giving? Like it's all God's? Or are we gripping? Like it's all ours? There's a big difference.

There’s no bottom that you can hit that Jesus won’t restore and redeem you....

Guest speaker Jon Tisevich joins us in week four of our Ghost Stories series to remind us that with God, things can change. There isn't anything we can do to make God love us less and even in the darkest of places, God will meet us there and bring us back to Him.

“We have been partners in spreading the Good News of Jesus.” This is what we are going after.

We want to make people alive again through Jesus just like he has done in us. We want everyone to come alive in Jesus. So who are the people close to you but far from God? We are a fellowship on purpose built around people coming alive in Jesus.

We want to feel good about ourselves. We we want to go to church and just get a little pick me up. “Just tell me God love me and send me on my way...."

If we're just encouraged all the time we may never change. We need to be convicted because there's things in our lives where we are not in step with God’s best for us.

If we're going to be people of faith...we've got to wait.

We've got to pray. We've got to ask, we got to depend, we got to trust, not in ourselves but in the gift that God promised in the one that He's given us the Holy Spirit.

Jesus says, "It’s not about time. It's about priorities in your life.”

If it's Jesus, then you're simply going to find a way to serve and to live this life that he's called you to. He set the example. He's called us to follow. If the God of the universe can get down on his knees and wash my feet I will figure out a way that I can serve somebody else. I'll get out there and pick up the towel and do it.

How prepared do you feel?...

We never know the time or the place where we get to share the News about Jesus. There are moments in our lives where we could be the hope for those looking for purpose and meaning. How we prepare our story of faith and journey with God matters because it greatly impacts those who are searching around us.

Idols want to take our life...

They can never give us anything. They can only take from us but Jesus the true God gave us his life. While idols want to take, Jesus came to give. While idols threaten to enslave us, Jesus promises to free us and in him is life and love and peace and joy and freedom and truth. He is everything we're looking for and everything we need, why are we still looking? Why are we still longing? Why are we still lusting and running towards things that will never fulfill us.

What if marriage and singleness aren't about a relationship 'status' and more about who & what we are becoming?...

In week 3 of our "Let's Be Real" series, Todd & Kate both talk about different views of marriage and singleness. We dive into the meaning, purpose, and design of each and how we can be authentic in all of our relationships.
