At Hope Alliance we pursue Genuine Connections with God and others in our worship gatherings and our lives.  Through the Gospel, we our known and loved by God in such a way that we can be genuine with Him.  That in turn leads us to genuinely connect with others in the same way.

At Hope Alliance we live and pursue Casual Depth in our worship gatherings and our lives. What we see in Acts 15 and in the teachings of the apostle Paul is this: it should be easy to meet Jesus, but it isn't easy to stay with him if you don't anchor deep into the Gospel.

At Hope Alliance, everything is about Simply Jesus.  To live that identity out as a church and as an individual we saturate ourselves in the Gospel.  What we find is that it leads to our rescue, renewal, and it spreads to our spheres of influence.

At Hope Alliance, Jesus is first.  Everything else is second.  It's that simple.

Jonah 4 concludes with a gut punch to the reader: why are we so quick to have mercy for ourselves and yet have frustration when God has mercy on others?  We quickly turn in to "older brothers" that despise the Father and our brothers.  
By remembering God's mercy to us and where we came from, we can join God in being merciful to the world around us.

In Jonah 3 we see the people of the great city of Ninevah humbly choose to "believe God".  And in His compassion God gives them life.  Today we, too, find life when we live a life of repentance...of turning to believe God.

Jonah is brought low by self-inflicted troubles, but finds God's salvation and grace in the depths.  When we finally come to a place of brokenness and admit the depth of our lostness, God can raise us up with Jesus.

In Jonah 1 the author wants the reader to know that despite our best efforts to run away and pursue other gods, the true God pursues the ignorantly and intentionally idolatrous and has mercy on both.

Guest preacher Jim Rudd shares with us from the book of Acts about how the early church and believers learned to love their neighbors cross culturally.

Jesus calls his disciples to love their neighbors even if that includes their enemies.  What we find is that forgiveness and love of our enemies go hand in hand.  Ultimately, we see that Jesus lived this out by loving and forgiving US...his enemies.
