How are Christians meant to handle disagreements and offense? In this stand alone teaching we will hear from one of our own Zack Naessig on the topic of forgiveness.

In our final week of Life Together we look at the life of the church outside of its community. As the church is deeply formed, what is it formed into and how do we live out this formation-fueled missional life?

What is our life together meant to look like within the Church? Part 1 of 2 will explore this question on ecclesiology.

"I wish we never had to leave (insert student ministry big event here)."

Why is there so much hype behind the big events of ministry and so much apprehension about returning to the normal rhythms of our lives? We run toward deep conversations, vulnerability, and unrestrained worship at a camp, retreat or other event, but we withhold ourselves from all of these things in a regular Sunday service or a Wednesday night. Is it because camps are that much better than normal life? What is it?

What if it's a fundamental misunderstanding of what "normal life" is meant to look like?

Major apologies but our recording cut out halfway through the second point. We will be happy to email notes for the remaining section if you email [email protected].

What is life all about? This question has been asked by innumerable people of thousands of years all in the hope of an answer coming that can make sense of life here and now and lead to deeper flourishing. The answer the Bible offers; “This is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God.”

How can we know a God who is also described as indescribable? In week 3 of Rooted, we’ll look at the practice of Knowing God.

Does God speak?

Most people would say yes, but without a great deal of confidence that He would speak to them. Hearing from God is an essential part of our spiritual life but often goes overlooked because it seems too hard to discern or too rare to expect. But what if that wasn’t the case?

Tonight in week 2 of Rooted we will look at the practice of hearing from God through the story of Luke 24:13-35.

How do we start a new year well? For many the answer is resolutions and for others it’s rhythms but when we look to Christian history there are certain practices that deeply root our identity and daily life in the life of Jesus.

Tonight we begin by looking to the promise of Matthew 5:8 and the hope found in Exodus 33 and Psalm 37:4 that God does in fact reveal Himself to those who want Him and seek Him out.

Tonight we wrap up our final teaching in the Life series looking at the most important church doctrine that most people have never heard mentioned; union with Christ.

We were made for life in God, but that life comes only as our belief is formed through proximity to Jesus and obedience to God’s commands. In our next to last teaching of the series we look at the journey toward Jesus and the moment the rubber meets the road.
