We know that God is good. Obviously. But if that's true, then why is it so hard to believe? There's actually a very good reason, and it's important for us to understand, because it's actually a big deal. Join us as we uncover the answer and conclude our study of God's goodness.

"Why do bad things happen to good people?" We've all heard this question. What's the answer? And how does it square away with what God says about Himself? Join us as we tackle the question and discover the surprising answer.

God is Love. We all know that. What we don't know is how to justify some of His actions in the Bible. Our question in a nutshell is, How can a loving God be so unloving? What are we missing? Join us as we discuss some key principles to help us understand and trust Him more.

We all like a good story where evil gets destroyed and good wins the day. And God is no different. Or is He? We know God has a sense of justice, and so do we. But how are they similar? How are they different?

Join us as we explore the beautiful harmony of God's perfect justice and His everlasting mercy.

We all know that “God is Love,” but sometimes that's hard to square with what we read in the Old Testament.

Is it possible that our understanding of leadership has morphed over time, leaving us with an over-used, over-worked concept that just wants a break?

If great heroes truly are made, how does it happen? What’s their secret, and can we mere mortals know it? The answer is yes! (which also makes it much less of a secret).

Join us as we explore the “winner’s” mindset, unmask its arch-nemesis, and reveal some simple practices to help us on our quest.

Trying to juggle a million different things you know you ought to do can be exhausting. But what if you could simplify life with a framework that would instantly remind you of what matters?
