Lots of people make promises, but many are unfulfilled. Some are unfulfilled because the one who made the promise didn't really have the power to fulfill it. The resurrection of Jesus shows God's power to fulfill promises. Jason Bollinger teaches on The Power of Fulfilled Promises from 2 Corinthians 1:18-24.

Perhaps you have been wondering, "What is God up to with this pandemic?" Many of us have been wondering the same thing. In this teaching, Pastor Chris Kipp begins with the question, "What if I told you that God strategically interrupts our lives to get our attention and to awaken us?" Like the disciples in the Garden of Gethsemane with Jesus (Matt. 26:36-46) we keep falling asleep to what matters most and God keeps coming to awaken us. Listen in as Chris shares about the Presence Problem and how God desires for us to be present to Him, to our own hearts and to others.

Where did all the toilet paper go? The paper towels? Did thousands just begin using this products or have fear of scarcity caused people to stockpile and hoard? That's what fear of scarcity does to us and it can ruin our souls by inspiring greed. Thankfully, God's given us his antidote greed and has called us to generosity. Pastor Chris Kipp teaches on the Livestream from John 6:1-13 on The Miracle of Generosity.

COVID-19 has hindered work for us. It's stopped all of our extra-curricular activities. It has "un-busied" us and that may not be such a bad thing. Pastor Chris Kipp continues the "40 Days" series with a teaching on sabbath rest from Exodus 20:8-11 and Matthew 11:28-30.

As Jesus is led by the Spirit into the wilderness, he fasts for 40 days and 40 nights. Why would Jesus weaken himself physically when he is about to face-off against the devil himself? If you were him, wouldn't you want to be at your peak physical strength?

Fasting may be one of the least practiced spiritual disciplines, but one of the most needed. Pastor Chris Kipp teaches about fasting from Matthew 4:1-4.

This episode was recorded during a live-stream worship service on Facebook Live. Due to COVID-19 precautions, Renaissance Church met online for the very first time on March 15th, 2020.

We have the access to the Bible like never before. We've got apps in every translation and in multiple languages. But, with all this access and familiarity, have we lost the wonder of the Word? Pastor Chris Kipp teaches from Psalm 19 and shares the big idea that God breathed into His Word that it might breathe into you.
