Nobody is born with a gene that makes them content...that causes them to think they have the most awesome car (job, house, friends) EVER! Tucked away in one of Paul's letters in the New Testament is some good news for us Americans - contentment can be LEARNED.

YouTube celebrity and guru Amy Porterfield lived a Groundhog Day life - one in which she had to produce a video EVERY SINGLE DAY. But then a friend introduced her to mega-batching and now she makes all the videos she needs in ONE WEEK and takes 5 weeks OFF in between mega-batches. What if you could be MORE PRODUCTIVE by actually doing LESS? The BIble shows us a better way to live - one in which we can be truly human and truly living life...to the full.

Even though it's 2018, there are certain words, that if you say them, Tweet them, or post them on Facebook can cause you to lose your job and possibly end some of your friendships. Ironically, what was considered blasphemous 50 years is acceptable today and what was considered acceptable 50 years ago is blasphemous today. Most folks think the 3rd Commandment is just about speech (be careful what you say) - but it's so much more than just bleeping words.

When we read the 2nd Commandment (make no graven images), we think: NOT ME. That's one commandment I haven't broken - I don't even have a chisel or a lathe - couldn't make one if I tried. That's because, when it comes to idols and idolatry, we tend to think of statues, temples and people in grass skirts on a National Geographic special. But idolatry has to do with your HEART. In this message, Max Vanderpool exposes 4 common idols of contemporary American life - and what to do about it.

We often forget that, when it comes to initiative, there are two kinds of people: (1) those who see what needs to be done right away and (2) those who tend to miss what needs to be done. Neither type is necessarily better than the other - but understanding your default setting can help you become a person who is BETTER at taking initiative.

One of the BIGGEST things we despise in other people is the sense they think (or believe it to be the case) that they are somehow better than us. Here's the GOOD NEWS: God feels the same way (read James 4:6). In this message, Max Vanderpool talks about the things God brings in our lives to cultivate humility.
