2025-04-13: The Apostle John began his journey as an arrogant, power-hungry follower of Jesus, driven by ambition and the desire for status. However, through a profound transformation, he became known as the "disciple Jesus loved," learning valuable lessons that revealed the contrast between his perception of success and the true measure of success in God's eyes.

2025-04-06: Thomas was one of the twelve disciples who followed Jesus very closely. We best know him as “Doubting Thomas.” This is a harsh nickname and probably the wrong one. It was not doubt driving Thomas, but his disappointment when his expectations of God did not match his current reality. Like Thomas, we’ve most likely experienced disappointment that has resulted in doubt. Is God really who he says he is? Why did God allow this to happen? Are you even there, God? Can we, like Thomas, sincerely ask to encounter Jesus together in community?

2025-03-30: Peter, one of Jesus' closest friends and one of the most celebrated among the twelve disciples, is often remembered for his bold faith - yet also his frequent failures. This week, we'll explore Peter's journey, particularly the moment he steps out of the boat to walk on water toward Jesus, only to begin sinking when doubt creeps in. Does walking by faith mean we're always called to step out fearlessly, or does God make space for our doubts along the way?

Have you ever wondered what it takes to follow Jesus? We’re not alone in that question. This week we are exploring the journey of two brothers, James and John, also known as the Sons of Thunder. They tended to act impulsively with their own best interests in mind. To follow Jesus, they had to learn to move from self-serving to self-sacrificing. Let’s discover together what it takes to be a disciple, and how we can learn from the lives of the Sons of Thunder.

2025-03-16: Jesus spent his ministry years intentionally shaping twelve individuals who would lead the way when he left. These guys were very different, yet their goal was the same: follow Jesus and be like Jesus. This concept is known as "discipleship". But the implication of being a disciple was unique for each of them, and it also has unique implications for each of us. In this series, we are looking at one of the twelve each week and considering what it meant for them and what it means for us today to be a disciple of Jesus.

This week, we’re looking at the disciple named Matthew/Levi. Why did Jesus pick “that guy”?

2025-03-02: So, let's be real. You've tried to connect in community. It hurt. Being alone is easier. But something in you still wants that deep connection with others. What do you do? This is the inevitable tension that every single one of us will find ourselves in. There are no exceptions. Jesus found himself there, too. Is there something we can learn from him? Listen in as we conclude our series on the loneliness epidemic.

2025-02-23: You can be surrounded by others or be digitally connected to others and feel lonely. That much seems clear, given the epidemic of loneliness our world is going through. What is not as clear, however, is that you can be alone and be connected. In fact, being alone and being lonely are two very different things. Jesus and his followers, throughout history, have practiced the habit of solitude and silence. Could it be that part of the antidote to loneliness is learning to be alone well?

2025-02-16: Romance. Marriage. Singleness. So much of our energy is tied up in romantic relationships. If we don't have one. If we do have one. Sometimes those who are alone want to be in a relationship and those who are in a romantic relationship want to be alone! It seems loneliness can be pervasive in singleness, marriage, and everything in between. Join us this week as we look at what a single celibate jewish leader has to say about marriage, relationships, and contentment.

2025-02-09: It's no secret, we live in a time in history where we've never been more connected and we've never felt more disconnected. Have you ever felt alone in a crowd? Isolated, even when there is so much buzz around you? This epidemic is impacting many of us personally and all of us collectively. Join us for this series as we look at the epidemic of loneliness, how Jesus changes the conversation, the role the church plays, and how quick and easy answers may not be as effective as we think.
