Life is full of tension and Christmas can heighten the tensions. Grief and Joy. Hope and Despair. We navigate how to acknowledge living in the midst of these.

We all know what happens when we assume. What are our assumptions about God's love for us? We break down some of our own assumptions and how those affect how we love others.

We asked the singing pastor, Phil De Boef to join us as we remember the ways God has been faithful. Join us as we build monuments to mark this season of thankfulness.

What if you woke up today with only the things you thanked God for yesterday? What would you have? Join in with Becky De Nooy and Klayton Korver as they discuss what it looks like to live life with hearts in a posture of gratitude.

We LOVE stories. They help us make sense of and put words to what we're feeling. This week, join with Klayton Korver and Karl Korver as they share stories encourage all of us to live a life of faith over fear.
