The story of the Prodigal Son teaches us many lessons...the hopelessness of living selfishly and without God...the hopelessness of moralistic and religious living that misses the whole point of the gospel...the power and expanse of grace...and many more. "Good News: Epilogue or Where does grace end? or How to live a great life." is now available!

The story of the prodigal son is a well told story of the gospel of Jesus Christ and it speaks to the incredible graciousness of God as well as 2 primary groups of people...those who are lost and aren't concerned and those who are trying to do all the right things and expect the same from others. It turns out they are lost, too. The elder brother has much to tell us in the church about what it means to truly know and follow Jesus.

The parable of the Prodigal Son is not just a story of 1 lost son. It's the story of 2 lost sons...1 is uninterested in God and the other feels justified because of what they are doing. In part 2, we find that there is great grace for non-religious people who are in need of a rescue.

Unordinary grace is the mark of Jesus. He demonstrates tremendous grace and generosity to those around him and encourages us to do the same because it is by grace that we are saved which should propel us to good works. "The Art of Being Unordinary: Unordinary Grace" is now available!

Following Jesus isn't about fitting in, it's about striving towards something that is good and meaningful. When we look at Paul's life, we don't see someone who had it all together. Instead, we see a guy that is striving towards something that he can see but hasn't yet attained. Let's be Unordinary, together as we strive towards something better.

You were made to become more in Christ. The Art of Being Unordinary isn't just an act of our will, it is something that God does within us. Sometimes it means picking something up but sometimes it means letting something go. What do you need to let go as God does something profound in you?

One of the greatest gifts of this life is the opportunity to be reborn. To become more than you were yesterday. To grow into something that is good. Or in our case, to return to something that was better. It requires "The Art of Being Unordinary". What is the 'good news', really, and how do we obtain the goal of being conformed to the image of Jesus?

The entire story of the Exodus is more than just a rescue, it is the setting apart a nation of priests that God would use to redeem the entire world. "Exodus: A Nation of Priests" is now available!

"Exodus: The Wedding" is a different look at the events around the giving of the 10 Commandments. We often look at the Decalogue (10 commandments) as an arbitrary set of do's and don'ts to gain God's favor. If we look at the text through an ancient eastern lens, we'll find that it's actually a marriage contract between God and us. That's not just a subtle change in how we look at it, it's a substantial shift into the heart of God and what it looks like to partner with him.

Even the greatest leaders of all time get overwhelmed from time to time. As Moses begins leading the day to day life of the Israelites in the wilderness, the task becomes unbearable. What do you do when you get overwhelmed? Moses's father-in-law, Jethro gives us some important insight on remaining a healthy leader.
