Why do so many of us lack the power to overcome destructive habits and self sabotaging behaviors? Why do so many of our objectives and goals seem just out of reach? Those of us who follow Jesus believe that God has given us his power to fulfill our divine potential, to overcome temptation, and to achieve true greatness in him -- but so often our powerful beliefs do not materialize into powerful results. Why? Throughout the life of the prophet Daniel, we begin to see a pattern emerge, a pattern of sacrificial periods of prayer and fasting. Daniel’s life provides us with a template of how to experience the power of God through the strategy of sacrifice.

All of us get stuck in our perspective of God. We have a picture in mind of who God is that ultimately doesn’t align with all that he has planned for us. We wrestle with God’s purposes for our lives because we’re looking at Him through our own lens. Today, we’re looking at a champion of the faith named Jonah who God called and proposed mightily but who ran from his purpose. When we feel like running, it might be time to find a new angle.

All of us wrestle from time to time. We wrestle with anxiety about our future. We wrestle with regrets from our past. We wrestle with difficult decisions, unstable relationships, and unhappy seasons of life. One of the great champions of the faith -- a man named Jacob -- found himself in a wrestling match with God at a crossroads in his life. After a life of deceitfulness, manipulation, and cunning -- a life of total self reliance -- he finally realized that he had nowhere else to turn. And God showed up to wrestle with him. Join us today to learn how Jacob wrestled with God and prevailed. And discover how you too can emerge victorious when you’re willing to come face to face with God.

We all get tested. Babies are tested to gauge their healthy development. Students are tested to gauge their readiness for graduation. Tornado alarms are tested to ensure they will work properly in an emergency. You can’t avoid being tested. And although none of us particularly like to be tested, a test is a vital stepping stone toward your growth and success. It’s only by way of tests that we can see where we are excelling and where we are failing. Join us today as we explore God’s ultimate test.

Starting the new year, our goals generally boil down to one thing: we want to grow in every area of our lives. We want to grow spiritually, emotionally, physically, intellectually, and relationally. We want our careers to grow. Our businesses to grow. Our churches to grow. When we look at scripture, we see an amazing picture of the growth of the early church. But what made the early church so quickly? What made it so strong? What made it expand exponentially? Join us today to learn the secret of spiritual growth! You too can experience divine strength and exponential growth in your life when you follow the faithful example of the strong and growing men and women of the early church.

If you’ve ever seen the movie Jaws, Part 2, you know that it does not come close to matching the excitement and drama of the original. In fact, most film sequels don’t live up to the original version of the film. When it comes to the Christian life, the scriptures paint a picture of what the original Church looked like, felt like, and acted like. The picture is of a vibrant and growing community of men, women, boys, and girls from around the globe who were sharing the love of Christ and the truth of the gospel with their friends, family members, and even their enemies. The question for us today is, “how can the Church today live up to the powerful and dynamic picture we see in the scripture of the original Church?” Join us for an exciting and informative sermon by Pastor Brent Roam called the Four Key Commitments of the Church.

We all long for meaningful connection, for authentic community, for rich deep relationships with others. And we’ve heard that the Church is supposed to be that kind of community -- a community filled with mutual love and respect, a family that encourages, supports and cares for one another. So why do so many churches feel more like country clubs or nursing homes rather than vibrant and growing communities? Join us today for the launch of a new series called “This is How We Fam” to discover Christ’s vision for His Church!
