Celebrating Mother's Day 2017 with Elevate - Make Your Mama Proud.

God's process of maturing us is inside out.

Your mess has the potential to bring God near you.

Whether you're a Jesus follower or not, we've all been in, are in, or are only one decision away from a mess. But there's a powerful connection between your messes and your relationship with God.

Easter Sunday 2017 - Jesus has the last word!

If you were taught to believe in a personal God who is all-knowing and all powerful, how can you not turn your frustration on him when life gets difficult?

In the Easter story, Judas tried to get Jesus to do what he wanted, without regard for Jesus' ministry and mission. That may seem ridiculous, but there's a little Judas in all of us.

In the days and weeks preceding the first Easter, the high priest Caiaphas stood in the presence of Jesus, the Savior of the world. But he refused to abandon his quest for control and surrender to his Creator. It's easy to dismiss Caiaphas as a fool, but what have we put in the place of God?

In a world with an abundance of information and opinions, it's difficult to know what's true and who you can trust. But even when our circumstances look less than ideal, we can be sure that we have a purpose and God has a plan.

Lasting change occurs in the heart, but it starts with our habits.
