  • Drafted
    Simon of Cyrene was drafted. He answered the call, carried Jesus’ cross, touched him and talked to him. He and his family had their lives changed, their loyalties redirected, and were immortalized in the Bible. Great unexpected things happen when we answer the call and get up close and personal with the Cross. Draft dodgers get left behind.

  • What do you see?
    This story is not just about Jesus being chosen to die over Barabbas. When we choose to look at that fact alone, we fail to realize the massive implications of what Jesus did for someone who was in jail for heinous crimes. We will come to this text in a new way - exploring scripture from the different vantage points of those who were actually present.

  • Party Like Jesus

    We live in a photoshopped Facebook world. Many people have allowed the posts about what others have or have done create envy in us and our relationships. We constantly compare and lose the ability to be happy for others. Jealousy says, “Sulk.” Jesus says, “Celebrate.” Which voice will you follow?

  • Upward Mobility

    No one likes to think badly of themselves. But many people think too highly of themselves. And Christians are no exception. Whether we boast and take prides in our accomplishments, status, wealth, spirituality, it takes the focus off of God and puts it on us. Pride says, “Put them down.” Jesus says, “Lift them up.” Which voice will you follow?

  • Let It Go

    Though nothing can separate us from the love of God, greed can keep us from following Jesus. It did for one rich young man. Having things isn’t wrong until those things have a hold on you. Don’t let greed keep you from following the voice of Jesus. Greed says, “Hold on.” Jesus says, “Let go.” Which voice will you follow?

  • That's Not Fair
    Did they wrong you? Do they owe you? Did they treat you unfairly? Most people think it makes perfect sense to get even. Jesus teaches us to get off the merry-go-round by taking a very different approach: love. When culture says, “that's not fair!”, Jesus says, “give love.” Which voice will you follow?

  • Do You Hear What I Hear?

    These days it’s unpopular to be a follower. They’ll call you gullible or mindless. They’ll call you a ‘sheeple’. But these same voices are telling us how to live. So how do you hear Jesus with all these other voices? How do you recognize his voice through all the noise? Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, how can you recognize Jesus’ sheep? The answer is simple: when they hear his voice, they follow it.

  • Good Followers Make The Best Leaders
    Submission to authority isn’t always high on our culture’s list, but it is a scriptural calling, and one that we have attempted to lose (with our consumeristic approach to church). Shepherds cannot lead well without sheep that are willing to follow.

  • Back To The Future
    Please note: we had some technical difficulties for about 10 minutes starting around 7:30.
    While there as lists of qualifications (1 Tim 3, Titus 1), what we really need are leaders that will point us both back and forward.
    • Back (to The Good Shepherd himself through an example of Christ-likeness)
    • Forward (casting vision/direction for the church as it navigates its specific context)

    • Take Me To Your Leader
      A danger in the selection of elders is fixating on qualifications of an elder and neglecting the qualities of a shepherd. Can a candidate meet all the qualifications yet lack the necessary qualities? What are the essential qualities of a shepherd? One essential quality is caring for the sheep.
