Over the next few weeks, we will examine the elements of Intentional Spiritual Formation and their roles in the process of forming us to be more like Jesus. This week we tackle the first of those elements: Teaching.

The goal for every apprentice is to eventually do the kinds of things that his or her master did. The same is true for apprentices of Jesus - to bring the Kingdom of God by saying and doing the types of things Jesus said and did.

How can we become like Jesus? After all, the purpose of apprenticing under Him is that we might become like Jesus and do the kinds of things that He did. In this episode we examine some of the factors that shape and form us as individuals - either towards Christlike character and living, or away from it.

Apprenticing to Jesus involves three goals. Join us as we take a look at what it means to "Be with Jesus" for the purpose of becoming like Him.

This is our second week in this sermon series based on the book Practicing the Way by John Mark Comer. How should we understand what it means to become a disciple or apprentice under Jesus? In what ways should that direct our path in life. Join us this week as we discover the answer to those questions and the three primary goals of any apprentice.

Jesus came that we may have life... and have it abundantly. Are you experiencing that abundant life? What accounts for the difference between his promise and our experience? The answer, often times, is us. And the lives we lead. Join us this week for the invitation into that abundant life.

Faced with an impossible situation, Jesus once again demonstrates his power and authority over those things that make man's toil in the world laborious. It is a moment reminiscent of one of Israel's greatest leaders and causes those present to wonder if Jesus might be the one they've been waiting for.

Why was Jesus ministering and healing on the Sabbath? Join us today as we uncover the reality behind the relationship of God to the Sabbath and why the words "My Father is working..." were so infuriating to those who opposed Jesus.

Following His encounter with Nicodemus, Jesus chooses to pass through Samaria on His way to Galilee. At a well outside the town of Sychar, a most unusual scene unfolds. Join us as we dive into one of the most beautiful accounts in the Gospels and discover the offer of Living Water.

Nicodemus, a leader of the Pharisees, has seen and heard enough to know that God is with Jesus. But he is unsure what it all means. Join us for this week's message as we discover the most important thing for Nicodemus - and us - to understand about the new era that Jesus is ushering in.
