The Point VA

There’s a certain set of equipment related to every sport and you don’t mix the equipment if you want to be successful and play the game the right way - the way it was designed. The same is true with life and all of it's transitions. In the final week of our Transitions Series Pastor Gabe teaches that life will never be all that God intends for us unless we're living according to His divine design.

There are a lot of voices at every basketball game - from the fans, to the refs, to the opposition, to your own coach or teammate. Each one has potential to or would like to be able to influence the direction of the game. In week 3 of our Transitions Series, Pastor Gabe teaches from Genesis 50 that not everyone who shows up at the game should be in your huddle.

In seasons of God's apparent silence it's always easy to conclude that He's absent or uninvolved in our lives. In week 2 of our Transitions series, Pastor Gabe teaches from Genesis 50 that it's God's responsibility to be sovereign and our responsibility to be obedient. If we confuse the two, we'll quickly find ourselves out of bounds.

Life is much like the game of basketball - full of transitions. Occasionally we have a season or a window of time to run a "set play," but mostly we're rushing in the frantic pace of major transitions. Unfortunately there's so much under the surface of our lives that we never deal with in the transitions, and we push through wounds, through pain, through fears, rather than facing up to the deep work that God longs to do in our hearts. In week one of this series Pastor Gabe teaches from Genesis 50 on a life-changing truth that anchored and healed Joseph's heart in midst of significant transitions - a truth that God is longing for us to embrace as well.

Uncertainty about circumstances, life, or even about who Jesus is isn't new to our day and age. Even the earliest followers of Jesus were skeptical, and the gospel writers weren't hesitant to record their doubts. In this Easter message Pastor Gabe teaches from the gospel of Luke on the clarity that Jesus' resurrection provided for the first century disciples and for those who follow Jesus in our day as well.

In this week's message Pastor Gabe teaches from John 12 on the significance of Palm Sunday and the necessity of Jesus to cross the line in certain areas of our lives. It's the line where He goes a little further than what we're comfortable with. Where He touches attitudes and egos, shame and victimhood, areas that we assume He affirms, but in reality He wants to bring about radical transformation.

In the final week of our series, When God Answers, Pastor Gabe teaches on the dynamics of when our faith and confidence get shaken as we wait on God to answer our prayers.

Watch as guest speaker, Pastor Jonathan Falwell, shares about having bold faith.

There is no such thing as an unanswered prayer. God may not answer the way we want, or when we want, but He always answers. Listen to week 2 of our series, When God Answers, as Pastor Gabe teaches on how God might not be saying no, but declaring I have something better.

Listen as our guest speaker, Dr. Joel Jenkins, teaches from a passage in Mark 6.
