Have you ever flown with a lot of turbulence? It can be scary. But for most of us we fasten our seatbelt trust that the pilot will get us through it. Our spiritual lives can be the same. What do we do when we experience turbulence in life? One thing is for certain…it’s coming.

Sometimes we miss the enjoying the journey because of the obstacle right in front of us. Fortunately we have someone that has gone before us to show us the way. This week we talk about how we can miss soaring above the clouds because of a $2.00 cup of coffee. Trust us, it’ll make sense.

Pilots look at their charts, drivers look at their maps, chefs look at their recipes. We would be irresponsible if we didn’t use the tools available to us in order to succeed. We have been given the greatest reference tool ever. The Bible. This week we talk about how to read it, how not to read it and why it’s important.

Jesus taught us and showed us a lot by his life. Caring for others, helping those in need and knowing what is important. This Resurrection Sunday we look at resurrection life through the eyes of what it took to get there. The willingness to die. What can we learn from this kingdom principle: Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

Have you ever ended up at the end of a path that you didn't intend? What has been the source of your greatest regrets? This week we talk about the fact that it is likely something inside you. The good news is, Jesus is a master at fixing it.

Sometimes life can seem overwhelming. There are bills to pay, relationships, goals, classes, careers. It can feel like there is no rest. There is.

"Just Be Yourself" is the mantra of individual obsessed Western culture. Get all you can and be yourself. It sounds great. And, at times, it is a good reminder against going with the flow. However, what does God think? How much of you and how much of Jesus does He want to see? This week we learn that the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive.

Whether right or wrong, everyone has an opinion about you. You even have an opinion about yourself. These opinions can wreak havoc on our lives if we let them. There is only one opinion that matters. That’s what we talk about this week.

What do you do when things get hard? Do you fight? Do you run? To what or whom do you run? All of us struggle with difficulties in life and we feel the need to escape. As we see this week, there is another option.

All of us like to be in control. We like to control our relationships, traffic, bosses, health or whatever. After all, we have our best interests in mind don't we? This week we talk about handing control over to God so that our lives don't end up out of control.
