A.J. Swoboda, founding pastor of Theophilus church in Portland is our guest for the morning and we read and study together in Matthew 28:16-20.

Continuing in our series in John, we read together John 20.

We read together Luke 24 on the appearance of Jesus on Easter morning and explore what it means for us today.

During this Holy Week, we read together John 19:14-30 about the death of Jesus.

What does Jesus' death on the cross mean to us as Christians and what does it signal? On this Palm Sunday, we look to the Scriptures in the Gospel of John to prepare us to take communion together and Pastor Steve outlines four meanings of Jesus' death.

Continuing in the book of John, we read together John 18 and examine some of the key elements in the passage.

As we are being shaped and transformed by God, what are some practical changes we can make in our lives? We look to the Scriptures in Romans 12-15 and see what Paul has to say.

There is a blessing in unity -- in being one. George reads in Philippians and talks about being on the same team in spite of our differences.

Sometimes we have to fall apart in order to become truly put together; sometimes we have to fall down in order to truly rise up -- It's a necessary deconstruction. We look to the scriptures in Isaiah 6 and Steve explains how God uses these times to reveal beautiful and wonderful growth.

We gathered together to study the Scriptures in John 17 and Beth Barone gives insight into this prayer of Jesus.
