// DO YOU WANT BREAKFAST? // - April 14th, 2024

This week, guest preacher Matt McClane preaches from John 21 about Jesus interacting with the disciples and Peter after His resurrection. Matt specifically highlights how we can response to shame in our lives, and how oftentimes we neglect to remember the love that Jesus has for us.

// PEACE BE WITH YOU // - April 7th, 2024

This week, Matt preaches from John 20, which tells the story of Jesus appearing to His disciples after His resurrection from the dead. Jesus' key response to His disciples when He appears is "peace be with you." What does it look like in our lives to have peace? Especially in the midst of doubt? Check out this message to be encouraged in your faith, especially if you are in a season of doubt.

// JESUS' BURIAL // - March 24th, 2024

This week, Zach preaches from John 19 about the burial of Jesus. We know that this burial is not the end of the story, because just 3 days later, Jesus rose from the grave. Sin does not win, it stays buried, and we can have hope in knowing that Jesus has the ultimate victory, and that we get to share in that victory!

This week, we take a break from our John series to focus on the reality of Jesus' crucifixion. Our students had the opportunity to walk through different stations that contained different elements of what Jesus endured (crown of thorns, hammer/nails, and more), in order to have space to reflect on what Jesus' went through during his crucifixion. Zach spoke from Luke 23 about Jesus' encounter with the 2 criminals on the cross, before having everyone walk around to each of the stations and reflect on Jesus' sacrifice.

// JESUS' CRUCIFIXION// - March 3rd, 2024

This week, Zach continues in John 19, and talks about Jesus' crucifixion. Crucifixion was a horrendous form of torture and execution, yet Jesus endured it for us. For those who don't believe in Christ and are headed for destruction, they see the cross as foolishness. Yet for those of us who believe in Christ, we see the power of the cross, and how it sets us free from sin and darkness.

// JESUS SENTENCED TO DEATH // - February 25th, 2024

This week, Zach preaches from John 19, where Pilate hands Jesus over to be crucified. In this story, we see how Jesus frees us from sin & shame, and how He is faithful. In addition - we see how Pilate gives into social pressure and wrongfully sentences Jesus to death.

// JESUS AND PILATE // - February 18th, 2024

In the second week of our "Journey to the Cross" series, Zach preaches about Jesus' interaction with Pilate, who sentenced Jesus to death. Pilate asks the question - "What is truth?" How does that apply to us today in our current culture? How can we pursue Jesus' truth, instead of the "truth" of the culture around us?

// PETER'S DENIAL // - February 11th, 2024

This week, Zach preaches from John 18 about Peter's denial of Jesus. In our lives, do we sometimes deny Jesus? How can we go all-in for Jesus in our daily lives?

// THE POWER OF SURRENDER //

This week, guest preacher Jason Smith talks about how we are created ON purpose, and FOR a purpose.
