Are you nervous about returning to past relationships due to hurts and offenses? It can be painful, but Jesus teaches us how to love, and he risked it all for us so that we may be in community together. Whoever loves God must risk it for one another.

Loneliness is so rampant because we have a pathological avoidance of conflict. The first step in dealing with conflict is not to avoid it, but instead to lean in and confess our imperfections.

If you are alone, you can't fully experience everything God has for you. We are saved by Christ alone; we are not saved to BE alone. Our faith becomes stronger when we are with other people.

The new year opens doors for opportunity, change, and shift. We want to be better, but sometimes goals and resolutions die off. However, when we move our focus away from ourselves and put Jesus at the center, we can start proclaiming God's Kingdom through the Rule of Life.

Merry Christmas! Join us as we reflect on the Christmas story together.

The message of Christmas is don't fear because Jesus changes our fear into joy. Immanuel, God is with us!

What do you do when your expectations come crashing down? We often try to hide it or think we can save the day. However, when we do this, we work ourselves to death. The reality is we don't have to do this. We serve a God whose grace is sufficient.

Remember to give yourself and those around you forgiveness and grace in all the business and fullness this season offers. Jesus came into a messy world to bring salvation, peace, and hope to us and our messy lives.

The good news is for all people, and our problem is we pray for God to make Jesus known, but he left that to us. Its time to invite the people in your life to receive the good news.

Do you ever feel like your Christmas To-Do List is stealing the joy out of Christmas? What would it look like this Christmas to reprioritize your list? Leaving more room for rest and Jesus and less of things to do.
