Week 8 of our series title "Every Story Matters." In this message we look at the fascinating encounter Jesus has with a man named Nicodemus. Nicodemus is an intelligent, educated, and influential teacher of the Law. Jesus tells Nicodemus that if he wants to enter the kingdom of God then he must have a second birth; he must be born again. As Nicodemus struggles to make sense of Jesus's words, is he willing to change his framework of belief and follow Jesus? Sometimes the first step in following Jesus is finding out who he is for yourself.

Week 6 of our series title "Every Story Matters." In this message we look at the life of Peter. Peter was a passionate, bold, and sometimes impulsive follower of Jesus who experienced a devastating moment of failure. Even at his lowest moment we see that his story still matters to Jesus and that God's grace is sufficient even for our most spectacular failures.

Week 5 of our series titled "Every Story Matters." In this message, we discuss the story of Jesus choosing not to condemn a woman caught in adultery and challenging her accusers to reflect on their own lives before casting judgment on her. When we honestly look at our own lives we realize we are often not that different than those we are judging.

Week 4 of our series titled "Every Story Matters." In this message, we discuss the story of Jesus healing a blind man in the gospel of John chapter 9. The disciples have theological questions about the nature of suffering but Jesus is more interested in doing something about it. Jesus heals the man physically and spiritually and warns religious leaders that though they think they "see" they might still be "blind."
