- i am > the way, truth, & life: Austin Presnell
In John 14:6-7, Jesus makes what is perhaps his most counter-cultural "I Am" statement. As "the way, the truth and the life", Jesus doesn't just show us the way to the Father - He IS the way to the Father. As His followers, we must be obedient to His way and connected to His truth in order to bring about His life. And as we share this with others, we have the privilege to use God's living and active words from scripture.

38 min - i am > the true vine: Toran Scott
Have you ever felt like your life isn't producing the fruit you thought it would? In John 15, we see Jesus describe himself to his disciples as the "true vine". He says that remaining in Him - abiding with Him - is the key to living a fruitful life that glorifies the Father. How do you sense He wants you to draw closer to Him in this season?

37 min - i am > the good shepherd: Toran Scott
There is a strange and compelling power of Jesus's sacrificial and all-encompassing love. This beauty is what Jesus is referring to when, in John 10, he calls himself "the good shepherd". As His sheep, we should emulate Him in laying down our lives for others.

37 min - i am > the gate: Toran Scott
Might pursuing a life of safety on our own hold us back from experiencing the life God has for us?
Many of us think that we can create a life of safety and security through our own means. With enough planning and smart decisions, we will be safe. But in John 10, Jesus tells us that He is the shepherd who we go through for refuge and protection in the world. In week 4 of our "I Am" series, we learn that recognizing Jesus's voice and following Him is what give us life to the fullest. Other things that promise safety are illusions - it is only found in Him.
Scripture References: John 10, Psalm 23

36 min - i am > the light of the world: Austin Presnell
We continue our i am series by looking at another one of Jesus’ statements and the story that it is embedded in. Jesus is the light of the world. His proclamation of this and the response that followed offers us the chance to reassess our source(s) of light and invites us to surrender to Jesus for true fulfillment.

32 min - TLC Turns 7: Toran Scott
While we wrestle with the disappointment of a different offer being accepted on a building we continue to feel like God has for us, the Bible encourages us to bring those to God and remember God’s mighty works. Our birthday presented the perfect opportunity for that.

49 min - i am > the bread of life: Gary Burge
Together, we focus on Jesus’ proclamation, "I am the bread of life". This statement from Jesus draws parallels to the Old Testament story of the Israelites' exodus and invites anyone who hears it to go beyond seeking material or political gains and instead receive Jesus as the true source of eternal life and fulfillment.

35 min - i am > the resurrection & the life : Toran Scott
Kicking off our series I AM, we're examining 7 of Jesus's "I am" statements found through scripture. On Easter Sunday, we see the truth that Jesus IS the resurrection and the life as we read the story of Lazarus being raised from death.

36 min - Victories and Valleys > Valley of Betrayal: Toran Scott
The story of David and Absalom is a story which highlights the need to heed God's warnings and avoid taking matters into our own hands. It highlights the importance of accountability, resisting temptation, and establishing checks and balances in our lives. We need to seek God's help, genuine community, and accountability to prevent falling into the traps of sin and rebellion.
