Lots of Christians are convinced LGBTQ people have no place in the church and will have no place in heaven, because that’s what they’ve always been taught.  This Sunday we’ll study a passage of Scripture that powerfully rebuts that negative perspective, as we mark Gay Pride weekend in Indianapolis.  Come on out and celebrate God’s goodness to all people!

As a children of God, what do we have the right to expect from God in terms of the quality of our life? Most of us would hope for a long life filled with blessings with minimal suffering. But then along comes Jesus, saying, “Take up your cross and follow me.” What does that mean? Does each of us have a cross to bear? Join us Sunday as we explore those questions in the second installment of our sermon series on “The Meaning of the Cross.”

As Christians, we believe Jesus’ death on the cross was the most pivotal event in the history of the world. On Sunday we will launch a new sermon series that explores why. Over the next four Sundays we’ll look at four different meanings of the cross, each taking us deeper in the understanding of our faith and how to live it. Sunday worship is at 9:15 and 11:00 am. No reservations required, but please wear a mask. As COVID lifts, let’s experience the joy of being together again!

Over the last 6 weeks, we have been exploring the wisdom of Father James Martin from his book ‘Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone.’ This Sunday, we will be wrapping up our prayer series as we explore our desire for God; What is it that draws us to God and what is it that helps us to feel connected. What is that supposed to feel like? Do you know? Join us this Sunday as we explore wisdom from Macrina Weiderkehr and Aiden Tozer. Maybe the key to prayer will be unlocked for you!

This is a warning from the Emergency Broadcast System: As soon as you begin to gain momentum in your prayer life, something is sure to happen that threatens to disrupt it. As the Scriptures say, “The devil is like a roaring lion, roaming about, seeking whom he may devour.” This Sunday, as we continue our sermon series on prayer, we’re going to explore two of the most powerful disruptors of our prayer life and how to triumph over them.

Who are the people who have inspired you to live a life of faith? Who are the people you have (or could still) inspire to live a life of faith? Those are the questions we’re going to grapple with on Sunday as we study a powerful Gospel story, celebrate our Mothers and Grandmothers, and consider our own influence on the people around us. If you feel ready to worship again in-person, you can make a reservation for either 9:15 am worship or 11:00 am worship at the following link: Important Links – LifeJourney Church

So far in our sermon series on prayer, we’ve talked about prayers of petition and processing prayers. This Sunday we’ll tackle a third form of prayer that virtually none of us have ever tried, yet it’s been a part of Christian tradition for years and scientific studies have shown it to be amazingly transformational. Join us on Sunday for the fourth installment in our sermon series based on James Martin’s best-selling book “Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone.”

Did you know that there is something prayer can do for us that’s even more beneficial than the things we ask for and receive. Yet most people have never heard of this other aspect of prayer, let alone tried it. This Sunday we’ll talk about it, as we continue our sermon series based on the best-selling book “Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone,” and hear a special greeting to our congregation from the author, Father James Martin.

When we pray, sometimes it seems to “work.” We ask and receive! But other times there’s radio silence – no apparent results. All of which raises the question: How does prayer work? That’s the question we’ll tackle this Sunday, as we continue our new sermon series based on James Martin’s best-selling book Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone.

Father James Martin has written a New York Times Best Selling book called Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone.  It’s getting rave reviews!  This Sunday Pastor Jeff will begin a new sermon series based on Father James’ book.  Whether you’re a beginner or have been praying (or trying to pray) for years, you’ll get something powerful from this new series!  Watch on livestream Sunday at 11 am or make reservations at LifeJourney.church/links.
