The Christian's practice of eating the “Lord’s Supper” dates back to the night of the last supper. We were given this meal as a way to remember, or to focus our attention on, the body and blood of Jesus. In the first week of Lent, we will speak of its importance, how participating in it together can usher us into communion with Him and why beholding Jesus as He is should be so important for us as Christians.

What is celebrated gets repeated and what is glorified gets our allegiance. In our final week of Bridging the Gap, we take a look at what we're celebrating and glorifying, how it's impacting our lives, and what kind of revisions God is calling us to make so that we celebrate and glorify Him!

One of the most powerful statements that Jesus makes in the gospels is "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." The strength of this statement is stunning for those of us living in a "post-truth" society.

In week 3 of our Bridging the Gap series, we talk about how we got here, the toll a lack of truth takes on our lives, and the one revision we MUST make to live faithfully for Jesus.

When we live with the end in mind it makes us think through every decision we make along the way. Peter is inviting us to live our daily lives with a focus on eternity because he believes it will transform the way we live our lives and encourage us to invite others into God’s family. In week 2 of our Bridging the Gap series, we take a look at how this can bring personal revision and how an awareness of God’s presence in our lives is the key to our relationship with Him.

Far too often we miss the point and purpose of life. The good news is that your purpose in life is connected to God’s purpose in this world and when we can see where we fit it helps us see how we should live our lives. Peter tells us that Jesus is coming back but before He does God wants to save as many people as possible! In week one of our Bridge the Gap series, we’ll look at how God’s long-term plans should impact our everyday living and how those daily decisions can be used by God to accomplish his purpose in and through your life.

In the last part of Haggai we are reminded that our obedience and our faithfulness can go viral and we have a choice to make about what we spread throughout our world.

2020 has shaken us in many ways. Normal life, whatever that means, is gone. Many things look completely different than they did in 2019. Our relationships, our jobs, our world, even our faith. We are going to take a look at the Book of Haggai to explore what it looks like to rebuild our lives when our lives and the world are in disorder.

In the beginning of Haggai we see a people finally released from exile and returning back to their homeland. For decades they have longed for the chance to return to the Temple and experience communion with God again but when they get home they turn their attention to rebuilding their own homes instead. Haggai asks them what’s more important, their own personal homes or their allegiance to God.

Christmas Eve is the day we focus on the birth of Jesus. The idea that God would put on flesh and blood and move into the neighborhood should blow our minds. He wants to move in with us? This Christmas Eve we’ll tackle all the reasons our hearts say Jesus shouldn’t want to make His home with us and we’ll talk about how His presence deals with each of those issues directly.

Let’s face it. Most of us have felt trapped by 2020. It’s not only the pandemic - it’s everything! The question is how do you get unstuck so you can live the life you were made to live free of all the things that make us feel stuck.
