You’ve been there before… prayed for something and felt like God wasn’t there to hear you. He certainly didn’t give you an answer much less the one you were looking for. Today, we’re going deeper into the messages from the weekend about wondering why God doesn’t hear our prayers. I think you’ll be surprised by some of the roadblocks that are there in our prayer life.

Have you gone through a really difficult situation and asked yourself, “Why did God let this happen?”. Yep… us too. But we’re going deeper into that question today and looking at the stories from the Bible where we see that similar situations have happened. What choices are we making? What choices are others making? How do we reconcile that with our daily lives and our faith? Let’s dig in not today’s episode with Natalee and Tommi.

Have you ever found yourself asking why in situations surrounding your faith? Listen, we all have! This series is taking time to look at scripture for the best response to these why questions. On today’s episode, Tommi and Pastor Don are going deeper into the weekend message asking “Why does God feel far away?”. Pastor Don acknowledges that there are many reasons God can feel distant, but he specifically talks about how we may be over sensationalizing it or we may be distracted. Listen to hear more about these and how we can respond.

We’re going Deeper this lenten season with messages based on scripture to help bring a more deeply rooted faith. On our episode today, we have Pastors Don & Jason along with Tommi and we’re talking about spending time with others. When we are with others and taking the time to be present and make sacrifices, we’re showing the love that Jesus demonstrated. This act can help to bring a more deeply rooted faith. Listen to hear more about what this can look like in your life.

We are in the season of Lent and our series for Lent is Deeper: Spiritual Practices For A More Deeply Rooted Faith. On today’s episode we have both Pastor Jason and Don along with Tommi to discuss the importance of prayer. Pastor Jason gives us the many examples in scripture where we are directed, called, and guided to pray. We have the map laid out for us, but when it comes down to it… it can feel hard. Are we spending too much of our focus on praying the “right way”? Let’s talk through some of those prayer roadblocks on today’s episode.

We’re wrapping up our series on Starting Fresh and what better way to start a new year than seeking out to make a difference? Pastor Jason and Tommi are talking about how the example was set for us by Jesus and our job is to follow his lead. Through kindness toward others and loving one another we can truly make a difference. When we let our faith make a difference in our hearts we can then live our ways to make a difference in the lives of others.

This week we’re talking about letting go with Pastor Don, Natalee, and Tommi. Specifically, we are spending time with Natalee’s message on letting go of your past. We talk about the 4 “steps” to accomplish this: forgiveness, renewal, repentance, and testify. Before you’re too intimidated by the idea of having to testify your faith, we break down some simple ways that you are probably already doing that. Go deeper into your faith today with us and see how you can transform your week.

We continue our series, Starting Fresh, and this week Pastor Jason and Tommi are tackling a tough one… Mending Relationships. Scripture shows us how we are to treat relationships with others.

Our Advent sermon series is based on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and on today’s episode of Deeper, we’re talking about Scrooge himself. Listen, we all can be a little Scrooge like from time to time. In Scrooge’s defense… he had gone through some stuff to get him to his cantankerous ways. But what it so amazing about our Christian faith, our trust in God, and the promise of his word is that we can look to our Savior to avoid becoming like Scrooge. Even on our grumpiest days… we have the Hope that is provided with Jesus.
