This week, Pastor Ryan teaches from Mark 2, showing us that sometimes our greatest opportunities aren't obvious. Sometimes they are met with opposition, but it can be the best opportunity to see God demonstrate His power in our lives.

"I've been through some terrible times in my life, a few of which actually happened." [Mark Twain]
This week in Better Neighboring series, Pastor Ryan talks about fear and 2 big ways we can combat it.

CHALLENGE: After watching this message, read Psalm 91 out loud each day for 7 days.

In week 2 of Better Neighboring, Pastor Ryan shows us how Jesus' life on earth included people in everything he did. Jesus wanted to reproduce himself in the lives of others. You never know how a simple invite can change someone's life.

How good is your eyesight? Our friend Tim DeTellis kicks off Better Neighboring Series by talking through the story of the Good Samaritan and what we can learn from his obedience to care for his neighbor.

In the finale of the series, we catch up with Abram, now named Abraham, as God calls him to a test to sacrifice the thing he loved most-- his only son Isaac. The bottom line: God is building a bigger family than the one you can see.

The story of Abram continues as God invites him outside to look up at the stars and dream of the possibilities of the promise. God is capable of impossible things through limited human capacity.

Pastor Ryan kicks off the story of the lineage of our faith in Genesis 12 + 13, where God invites Abram to leave his home, and believe for things he has never seen. The promise doesn't make you capable, it makes you accountable to a God who is more than capable of fulfilling it.

For the finale of #TheOldNewThingSeries, Pastor Ryan talks about the importance and authority of the Word of God. The Word of God carries you, you don't carry it. As DL Moody says, "The Bible was not given for our information but for our transformation."
