In some way, all of us have asked the question of existence, "Why am I alive?" It's one of our earliest questions, but it never really seems to go away. This week Pastor Ivey begins a new five-week series exploring the reason we're born, our purpose in life. Listen as we explore the reason we're alive from three different perspectives: Existence, significance, and intention.

Have you ever wondered why you're alive? What is your purpose for existing? Because, if there is one thing you want to get right, it's your purpose. This Easter Pastor Ivey explores the Scriptures to look at why God made us, how God made us, and what should be our response. Listen this week for a meaningful message about your place in God's plan.

Have you ever felt alone? Maybe 2020 was a year where you experienced more isolation than ever before. We were not meant to be alone. But this week we look at a time when Jesus was abandoned by everyone and left to face the most horrific moment in history alone. Join us this week as pastor Ivey explores Jesus' painful moments before the cross in the Garden of Gethsemene where he was abandoned by all so that we could be welcomed by God.

As we continue our Lent series, taking a deep dive into the last three days of Jesus' life, we look at an extraordinary act of worship from a thankful woman. Everyone gives Jesus some sort of value in their lives. Some people will pay to get rid of Jesus, others will get what they can from Jesus, and still, others will give all they have to Jesus. Which one are you? How do you value Jesus? Listen in this week for a powerful and contemplative message on worship.

What should and shouldn't Christians do when waiting on Jesus to return? Talking about the end-times will always spark fascinating discussions. Some are more helpful than others. This week we look at the second half of Jesus' end-times teaching on the Mount of Olives. Jesus doesn't leave us wondering what we're supposed to do as we wait on him to return, he comes right out and says it. Join Pastor Ivey this week as he walks us through the Christian's proper response to the end-times.

This week we begin our new Lenten series where we slow down and explore the last three days before the cross. On Tuesday Jesus walked out of the temple with his disciples. When one of the disciples was enamored with the beautiful Temple in Jerusalem, Jesus prophecied that it would soon be destroyed. Shocked, the disciples wanted to know more. So Jesus took them across from the temple to the Mount of Olives and gave his second most famous teaching about persecution, the destruction of the temple, his return, and the end of time. This week he tells his disciples to keep their eyes wide open to the signs of the times so they will persevere. Pastor Ivey walks us through the passage and connects it to our everyday Christian lives.

Confession is often the most difficult part of prayer. It's always hard to admit we've done something wrong. This week Pastor Ivey unpacks why Christians should not be afraid of confession. Rather, Christians that understand the gospel, the depth of their sin, and the grace of their Father should marvel in confession. Join us for this final week in the series A House of Prayer as we look to the last verses in Jesus' model prayer about deliverance from sin.

For the first time in the Lord's Prayer, Jesus tells us to ask for God to work on our behalf. Perhaps surprisingly, Jesus doesn't begin his prayer with requests, but with worship. Then he prays that our hearts would be aligned in submission to God's will. It's only then that he begins asking for God's provision. Pastor Ivey unpacks each word of this amazing verse. Listen this week as we discover from Jesus what it is to recognize, rely, and rest on our Heavenly Father.

If we want a comfortable life, Prayer is dangerous... especially when we pray Jesus' first request of his model prayer. As we look to the Lord's Prayer this week, we see that Jesus wants us to keep our hearts focused heavenward. We're going to see Jesus petition the Father to bring heaven to earth. Pastor Ivey explores how heaven can come to earth and then shows us from the Scriptures how the ever growing Kingdom of God expands.
