This week, we look at the only miracle recorded in all four Gospels—the feeding of the 5,000. But this miracle isn’t just about food—it’s an invitation to personally trust that Jesus can provide for our everyday needs as well. And when we learn to trust him, our anxiety lessens, our faith deepens, and we can rest in his abundant provision.

What role does the Word of God play in your life? In this week’s passage, Jesus offers an inspection of reasons why people reject him. In doing so, he offers critical insights into the way the Word of God points us toward life in Him.

Have you ever faced a momentous moment that determined your future? This week, we will study Jesus’ strong and profound words about himself—words that no mere human should ever speak about life, death, judgment, and eternity. Join us as we consider the implications of Jesus’ claims for ourselves.

How do you see your life? Your answer to this question will shape your life. The Bible calls Christians “citizens of heaven” who have a home and an inheritance with God that brings joy indescribable. Join us Sunday as we close out this series looking at how we live in light of eternal joy.

What if there was a way for us to leave a lasting impact in those around us that changed the trajectory of generations to come? In our day, we seem to have become so comfortable in the messiness of life that we’ve lost our vision for God’s redemption plan to actually work in our lives. This week, we see how the gospel brings hope for our families and all belong in the family of God.

How do we walk day-by-day with joy in God and the Gospel? Once we receive the good news of God’s grace by faith, we are free to trust God and his guidance in our lives. Authentic followers of Jesus believe our greatest joy is found by living according to God’s Word. As we ask the Lord to build a people of joy in the heart of our city, we are committing to be equipped for every good work.

By definition, the Gospel is good news, and the most natural response to good news is joy. We see this theme everywhere in the Bible. Jesus said that he came so "...that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.” In this series, we will explore our church vision and some of the ways that God is stirring our hearts and minds both for our ministry to our people and for our mission to our city. We are asking the Lord to build a people of joy in the heart of our city.

How should the fact that Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem make a difference in our posture to our world? In a diverse and divided world, Christians are sometimes seen as angry, fearful, self-righteous, or defeated. But shouldn’t the good news of great joy we see in the Christmas story bring a different response? This Sunday, let's consider how our worship shapes our witness.

Have you ever wondered what makes Christmas deeply meaningful for some and just another festive season for others? This week, we’ll look at another miraculous healing performed by Jesus—but this story reveals much more than his power. It invites us to think about Jesus' relationship with God and to discover how thinking deeply Jesus leads to feeling more deeply about him as well.
