Many Christians know the Holy Spirit was given at Pentecost. But what if there was MORE to the story than just a dramatic arrival? What if God's gift of the Holy Spirit wasn't the end of Jesus' work, but just the beginning?

It is the age old theological debate: Are we saved by our faith alone OR do we have to “earn” our salvation by works and good deeds? What if we have been aiming our lives at the wrong target? What would a life look like that is aimed at a Faith that Works?!

What if the target you have been aiming at becomes a “Moving Target”? By God’s grace you have adjusted your life to aim at the target He has set before you when suddenly that target (relationship, job, ministry, retirement plan) vanishes! What do we do? What should our focus be? 

“I’m just so tired!” Have you heard that lately? Have you said that lately? Today we are talking about the overwhelming tiredness many of us are feeling right now.  If our lives are not aimed at the target God has set before us, we will continue to deplete our strength, our resources and our lives trying to hit the wrong Bullseye!

All of our lives we’ve been taught that if we work really hard and reach our goals, we will be happy - we will be satisfied… What if we’re not? Maybe we have been chasing after the wrong goal and trying to hit the wrong bullseye! Only when Christ is the focus of our lives, will we truly be satisfied. 

Hearing God’s challenges and promises are one thing. Applying and obeying is another matter. This weekend we will have a conversation about what this messy journey looks like in real life.

Anxiety is defined as “Feelings of fear, dread, and uneasiness that may occur as a reaction to

stress.” Anxiety has always been a part of the human experience, but the anxiety our culture is

experiencing today as a whole may be at an all-time high. Incredibly, God has spoken to us today about

living life without anxiety and surrounded by His peace.

They say, “The exception proves the rule.” The miraculous resurrection of Jesus on that first Easter morning was definitely the Exception, but what is the rule? Guess what… God doesn’t have to follow the “rules!” He made the rules, so He can break them! Our God is the God of the Exception and He wants to do exceptional things in and through you today!

It’s Palm Sunday! That means the passion week is upon us and the Easter celebration is only a week away!! Is that all Palm Sunday is? Just a “place holder” holiday to signal Easter is coming? What really happened on that day and why is this day so important to our Christian faith? This week we dig into the power of Palm Sunday!
