Matthew 5:43-48 with Joshua Liem
March 24, 2024

The hardest, and perhaps most well-known yet least practiced teaching of Jesus is this: love your enemy. Jesus urges us to imitate God in this manner, thereby achieving perfection. But do you even want to worship a God who blesses your enemies? Join us this Sunday as we lean closer in discipleship to the Preacher on the Mount.

Turn the other cheek" is a phrase that is deeply embedded in the English language. But if Christians are to take Jesus's teachings seriously, does this mean we are to allow ourselves to be victimized?

Being wronged by others is a part of life that remains out of our own control. However, what is in our control is how we respond. Join us this week as we lean into Jesus’ teachings and dive into four ways to respond when being wronged.

“Just tell the dang truth!” Sounds simple, but the real challenge comes when we try to live this out in our everyday lives. Yet, at the heart of the gospel, is a God full of truth, honesty, and integrity who invites us to shake off the dishonest way of the world and to join him in bearing his truth

The Secret of Contentment with Guest Brad Bruneski

February 25, 2024

Contentment is elusive to us, both in seasons of plenty and seasons of lack. Paul finds himself writing from prison, where nothing about his circumstances say that he should be content, but he teaches us that he has learned the secret of contentment. We explore together what it means to learn this secret and how it impacts the way we move through all areas of our lives.

What truly lies at the heart of relationships? What picture of commitment can we gain from the Preacher on the Mount? And what does God call us to as we interact with one another? Join us as we dig into the next passage in our Lean In series.

Matthew 5:27-30 with Joshua Liem

February 11, 2024

Adultery, hell, dismemberment, and the desires of the heart—things get intense in this week’s text. Jesus advocates tearing out eyes and chopping off hands if they cause sin in Matthew 5:27-30, so where are all the one-eyed, one-armed Christians? Join us this Sunday as we explore this challenging text.

This Sunday’s message will be a panel discussion fueled by questions sent in by our church community.

Matthew 5:21-26 with Ryan Guerra

January 28, 2024

Hate deals damage, love heals damage. There are many postures we take in life, and it’s important to understand that our treatment toward others is either something that brings life and healing or exerts damage on those around us.

Matthew 5:17-20 with Joshua Liem

January 21, 2024

How are Christians supposed to read and interpret the Bible? Matthew 5:17-20 is considered by many to be the most significant passage in the entire Bible on how to understand Scripture. It is arguably why Jesus was crucified. Join us this Sunday as we take a closer look at the Preacher on the Mount.
