Idols can be produced when good things can become ultimate things. More often than not, they stem from a deeper desire that can only be filled by our connection with God. On this week's Leadership Lesson, Pastor Amy Perez breaks down idols and how they can take hold of our lives.

Grace is a gift — God's closeness to us is pure grace. But as the parable of the Prodigal Son reveals, we can miss the fullness of it. In the parable, Jesus shows how both sons waste the grace of their father's love, whether through rebellion or resentment.

As much as the world talks about money, so does the Bible. Jesus serves as our guide, helping us become not only wise stewards of our finances but also generous givers, for generosity reflects the very heart of God.

True humility involves letting God have the final say over our finances, inviting Him into our financial decisions with open hearts.

In a society filled with worry and anxiety, the gospel encourages us in a different way of living. Statistics show that roughly 87% of the things we become worried or anxious about don't actually happen, but it becomes comfortable to live in states of chaos instead of entering into mindsets of peace. Regardless of what our circumstances lay in front of us, we can think better thoughts that are based on gospel truth and clarity. In this Sunday's message, Pastor Luis Guerrero shares three ways that God becomes the answer for our anxiety.

As we set our gaze on Jesus, we naturally bear the fruits of the Spirit, and in response, live a life that reflects Him. In this week's on Leadership Lesson, Pastor Ryan Schlachter highlights how our alignment with Christ makes our lives truly attractive.

Our contentment in life comes from loving-union with Jesus, not more of the things he gives us. Often times we look to the blessing in front of us instead of the one who is everlasting and provides for us. When we guard our hearts against anything that attempts to take our eyes off of Jesus, we are able to find a satisfaction that goes beyond our possessions and circumstances. In this week's message, Pastor Ryan Schlachter gives three ways Paul in Philippians 4 teaches us how to be truly content.

On this week's Leadership Lessons, Pastor Ryan Schlachter explores six key principles for guarding our thoughts, drawn from Philippians 4:8. Whether it's filtering negative self-talk or appreciating the beauty in everyday moments, we align our thoughts through the truth of Christ.

If we know God, if we are loved by God, reconciliation and forgiveness should be our pursuit. To reconcile in a healthy way begins with coming before God in humility, recognizing that he first came down to draw near to us.
