The christian walk can be overwhelming at times. How do we keep from going back to our old ways? How do we ensure that we are doing what we should be doing or growing how we should be growing? Alejandro takes us through the beginning of John 15 and discusses what it means to remain in the True Vine and how apart from Jesus we can do nothing.

Beginnings are exciting. Starting school, starting a new stage in life, starting a marriage. But it can also be a time of anxiety and fear. What happens if things don't go well? What happens if it doesn't work out? Fear can paralyze us. Today we dig into the parable of the talents and talk about Jesus' expectations for us as we head into the unknown. How do we stay faithful when there is so much at risk?

We've talked over the last few weeks about the various contexts in which we practice our discipleship. The benefits and challenges of the public, social, personal and transparent contexts. But what do we do with all that? What does our day to day look like as we try to follow Jesus? How do we fit all of these into our already crowded weekly schedules? Today Vincent dives into the practicals of how we live out our discipleship through all of these contexts.

Between the energy and power of the Public context and the intimacy and vulnerability of the Transparent context sits the Personal Context. It bridges the gap and allows us to connect with one another without the pressures trying to be overly intimate while still feeling close enough to not feel lost in the crowd. This is the context of community and small groups. Today Dave talks about the role this has in our discipleship and why it is so important day by day in our walk with God.

There is nothing like an amazing worship service to get you inspired and excited to serve God! But that isn't the only way to connect. Today we explore the Transparent Context, smaller groups of 2-4, and how these types of relationships fit into our discipleship. Jesus had the crowds and the twelve, but he also had the 3. How do these groups function and how do we build these kinds of relationships?

Our walk with God goes beyond simply us and Jesus. There are many facets to our faith and many different levels of relationships that affect and are affected by it. Today, Matt talks about the role of large groups such as the church or our community at large around us. How is our faith impacted by large groups? What is the function of church in regards to our faith? How is it meant to help us grow in our walk with God?

This Sunday, Dave talks about spiritual formation and discipleship, both of which are critical for our spiritual longevity. But how do we actually go about growing in these areas and what actually is the goal?

In 1 Timothy 4:12, Paul charges Timothy, a young believer, to set an example for others in his speech, actions, love, faith and purity. This week, members of our Youth and Family ministry share what they've been learning as they've been walking on their faith journey.

This week we talk about liminal spaces and the tension of being stuck "in-between".

This week, Mark Thompson gives us a fresh perspective on the love God displays through the freedom he grants us. Going over the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Mark speaks on what true freedom and fatherly love looks like. The freedom that we have is the same freedom Jesus chose to use when he willingly and joyfully endured the cross.
