Ever feel out of your depth? Like there is no way out of the hurt, fear, and brokenness? For many of us, it feels like the night will never turn to day and we're stuck in the situation at hand. What do we do? Join us on Sunday as we unpack a reason for hope - not just for today or tomorrow, but for eternity.

The abundance of self-help books and life hacks in our world is a testimony to the fact our lives are not quite right and that we desire a better way forward. But like any problem, before we jump to solutions we need to understand what's gone wrong. Join us Sunday as we seek to understand the problem, and, in the process, discover a blueprint for life far more transcendent and helpful than the latest New York Times bestseller.

This week, we see how three great endeavors of human existence — significance, security, and restful sleep — all fall under God’s providence. No matter how diligently we work, how carefully we protect, how intensely we seek a way forward, our striving is meaningless “unless the Lord” shows up for us. But the Lord love to give to his beloved.

Laughter is essential to Christian faith. This week, we see the importance of celebrating the goodness God brings in our lives: “the Lord has done great things for us; we are glad.” These gospel memories strengthen us for tougher times that are sure to come, and they increase our faith in God’s promise that joy has the final word in our lives.

Where do you find confidence for your life that is lasting and strong? In contrast to our world of fickle feelings and temporary highs, God's people are confident because they are surrounded by God himself. Join us this weekend, as we learn ancient wisdom for all those who seek to walk with trust in the Lord.

As we journey through life we will regularly encounter great difficulty, which sometimes leads us to question our faith and doubt God. In these moments we often turn away from God, but when we turn towards God in difficulty and doubt we often find fertile soil for our faith to grow. Join us Sunday as we learn from David's experience how to seek the Lord in times of pain and suffering.

In contrast to our instant-everything world, spiritual growth is a slow, winding journey on the long road to a God-given destination. Christians often use the metaphor of a journey to describe what it’s like to move toward maturity in life with God. In ancient times, the people of God would literally travel together on the road to Jerusalem for worship. Since the city was at the highest elevation in the region, they ascended on this pilgrimage path. Along the way, they sang psalms which became known as the Songs of Ascent. Join us this summer as we travel through these ancient songs to find time-tested direction for our own journey with God and his people.

Do you believe you have a Heavenly Father who cares for you but still find yourself anxious and discontent? You're not alone. Because beliefs are important but they aren't enough to change us. As we conclude our series this Sunday, we'll consider Jesus' climatic invitation to bring all of life into alignment with his kingdom as the surprising catalyst that helps us move from anxiety towards contentment.

Where do you go with your worry? Scripture tells us to go to God, “casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7). We find freedom from our striving for significance, image, and external validation by cultivating personal, soul-strengthening life with God. This week, we will explore how we can deepen our relationship with the Lord.

What keeps us from enjoying more contentment in our lives? When we become stuck in a mindset of comparison, criticism, or cynicism, we will find that contentment is impossible to find. In our search to be content in all circumstances, Jesus will point us to Gospel truth and confidence in the care of our Heavenly Father.
