In this series, we will look at different instances that highlight Jesus’ pursuit of those many would label as “outcasts.” In each of these situations, Jesus often goes out of His way to reach the outcasts of society. His love is extravagant and relentless. These instances provide examples of action for those who declare they are Christ followers. In this episode, “The Search is on”, after hearing the religious leaders grumble about His attitude toward sinners, Jesus tells three parables that illustrate God’s extravagant love for the lost. This text teaches us that it doesn’t matter what we’ve done, or how far we’ve wandered, God is actively pursuing us to come back to Him.

On this Mother's Day, Pastor Pender examines society’s ever-changing expectations of what ideal motherhood looks like which can be exhausting—especially to a woman who might feel she’s fighting an uphill battle on her own. The Old Testament books of Ruth and 1 Samuel include two examples that show us that God’s concern and care for mothers extends to all women, not just the ones society deems “ideal.” Motherhood is not a road that’s meant to be walked alone. We as a church have a privilege and a responsibility to come alongside mothers and women who long to be mothers: to encourage, lift up, and offer physical help as needed.

Being a part of God’s family should be a powerful force in our life. A loving and honest community is where real belonging and, therefore, real transformation happens.

In this episode, "We are us", Pastor Pender discusses that we were never meant to do life alone. Being a Christian is about more than becoming a church member; it’s becoming a member of God’s family.

This means that we must be quick to truthfully share the testimony of God’s grace in our lives, even when it’s not easy.
