Why is light so central in the Bible? It’s the first thing God says in Genesis – “Let there be light” – and at Christmas we celebrate the coming of Jesus, the light of the world. This week we’ll look into the importance of light, and the good news delivered to humble shepherds on the night Jesus was born.

We continue to lean in to our sermon series on rejoicing in spite of our circumstances. This week addresses our relationship with control. Everyone has areas where they are trying to control what they can't or shouldn't, which limits joy. But when you trust God's control, you can experience mega joy.

Waiting is never easy, but there are steps you can take as you wait for God's promises to come true. Join us as we cover keys to unlocking the joy to be found in the period of anticipation and to counteract the resignation.

Now that Thanksgiving is over, how do we stay thankful moving forward? Jesus doesn't ever demand gratitude; however, expressing thankfulness unlocks an opportunity for us to be in relationship with God. We must move from just having grateful hearts to employing grateful habits which lead to appreciation that shows itself through actions.

When Jesus enters your life you are changed and challenged to devote yourself to that which is good. You should not be a distraction to the mission of the church; instead coming alongside your leaders as they guide the church body in the mission of God, teaching you and others how to eagerly do what is profitable for everyone.

We continue on with Paul's instructions with a look at how we respond to those in authority over us and why that matters. Why does it matter how we respond to authorities in our lives? Two reasons: first, because obeying the authorities allows you to stay focused on God’s mission. And second, because our attitude towards authority affects the way others respond to the Gospel.

As followers of Jesus, you are the clearest picture of him that others will ever see. You are encouraged to live so that others can see past you to who He is. You can enhance this process by being eager to do good for others.

We continue moving through Titus with a look at the difference between how the world and God perceive "the good life" and how keeping your focus where it needs to be can make you fit for doing good.

We continue our study in the book of Titus looking specifically at how church elders are ordered to conduct themselves and how being gospel-centered and others-focused leads us to God’s design for the good life.

What comes to mind when you think of the good life? We tend to think of money, cars, houses, relationships, careers. But what if the good life didn’t consist of good things we get for ourselves? Join us as we walk through the book of Titus and discover God's definition of the good life.
