(Luke 15:11-32 & Leviticus 19:17-18) Parables are stories that move our hearts and call us to action. What would you do with someone who is reckless with their resources? (the Message of Jesus 3/6).

(Matthew 5:1-20 & 7:24-27) The sermon on the mount has had a profound influence on our world, but it could also destroy us if we misunderstand it. Hear some of the key points to rightly follow the ethics of Jesus in the kingdom (The Message of Jesus 2/6).

(Mark 1:14-28 & Psalm 32:9-11) Sometimes it seems like the whole world is broken. The way to a full life is laid out by Jesus, but it has nothing to do with what we usually think of (the Message of Jesus 1/6).

(Nehemiah 9:6-17 & Matthew 17:1-2) We want to do good for our community, but how do we really make that happen? Valentines and a journey to hell can point to an unexpected truth - the way forward is not in changing the community! (Rebuilding Us, Rebuilding Our Community 3/3).

(Nehemiah 4:1-15 & 1 Corinthians 2:1-5) Lives can change pretty dramatically when someone with confidence offers us a hand. Nehemiah did that for Israel, and we can do that for each other (Rebuilding Us, Rebuilding Our Community 2/3).

(Nehemiah 1:2-10, 2:1-5 & Micah 6:6-8) Sometimes we fail, and fail hard! We are not alone. Even Nehemiah in the Bible knew that feeling, but what he did next is an example for us all (Rebuilding Us, Rebuilding Our Community 1/3).

(Joshua 4:1-8, 19-24 & 1 Peter 2:5-6) Generational differences seem like they are everywhere, but are they really all their cracked up to be? Finding a deeper connection helps us to be there for one another, even if we don't see everything the same (for Generations, 4/4).

(Romans 11:33-12:8 & Psalm 95:6-7) Our commitments in the new year are about more than our body. The same is true when it comes to worship. We don't just put on a show for God - we give everything (For Generations 3/4).

(Matthew 3:11-17 & Acts 4:32-37) Sometimes good health and more money feels like thriving, but underneath it is something far more important. Jesus and the early church points to a feature that matters even more than health and wealth (For Generations 2/4).

(Romans 12:9-21& Matthew 7:12) We might know what is genuinely evil, but sometimes we get it wrong when it comes to evaluating people. Hear about an ancient argument that points the way to real good (For Generations, 1/4).
