Terraforma Church

Our minds have incredible potential for creativity and imagination. In that potential there is the power to help or hurt, ourselves as well as others. When we recognize this, we can partner with God to unleash our imaginations to dream big dreams for ourselves, our families, and our community.

We sin because we believe a sneaky little lie about what will make us happy. We are easily tempted into sin because we refuse to trust that God is good and that what He wants for us is only our deepest happiness. Uncover the lie and temptation begins to lose its power to bring chaos into your story.

We like to think of ourselves as logical and rational creatures, but the truth is we are highly emotional, relational beings that can be decieved and manipulated. When you understand the battle for your mind, you understand how important it is to pay attention to what you pay attention to!

What is God like? This is almost a universal question, where the hearts of human beings reach to comprehend the transcendent with wonder and awe. Jesus claimed that He came to reveal the nature of God, to make God knowable. If you know Jesus, then you know what God is like!

Jesus left behind the majesty of heaven for the humility of earth. His birth narrative underlines the truth that Jesus has come to turn the world upside down. He has come to rescue, to heal, and to save. And he came to the common people, among the common people.

As we start the Advent season, we look at the name given to Jesus: Immanuel, which is the recognition that God is with us. This promise was first heard by a king named Ahaz, but it was rejected. Decades later, the promise came to a man named Joseph, and it was embraced.

Jesus described The Kingdom of God as an extravagant banquet where everyone is invited, even those you might least suspect. However, not everyone will accept this incredible invitation.

Early in the story of the Jesus Movement, a disciple name Philip encountered a curious man from Ethiopia that helped him rethink the limits of God's grace and extend a powerful invitation.

God is a good father that invites his children to the table. Some run from the invitation in sin, while others refuse to sit down and assume the posture of a servant. Yet the Father reaches out in grace to all! Terraforma Overseer John Zig shares from God's word.

One way to understand the impact of the Gospel is to think about the ever-expanding hospitality of God. God's love reaches continuously out to find those that have yet to find a seat at the table. The disciples were slow to learn this, but it is a lesson we cannot afford to miss.
