The Well

At Easter, we consider the cross and the resurrection, of course—but this consideration ultimately demands a response from us. It demands that a choice be made. In this Easter message, Pastor J.D. explains how Luke 23 is the dividing line of history, and the most important decision we will ever make is whether we are on the side of Jesus or not. For those who choose to put their faith in Jesus, we can say with confidence and joy, “Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!”

When we want to remember the things that are most important to us, we set our alarm clocks, mark our calendars, take photos, and more! But when it comes to our faith and spiritual walk, is our effort of remembrance just as diligent? Pastor Philip shares the incredible importance and power of remembering.

As a follower of Jesus, you are uniquely equipped to preach His truth into the darkness of this world! In today’s message, Pastor Jeff teaches you that there are many teachings and ideologies in today’s culture that cause people to believe false things about themselves. They base their identities on something that isn’t true! But when you draw your identity from God’s Word and what Jesus says about you, it gives you the ability to be a light that brings hope to this world full of confusion and uncertainty!

Have you ever gone through a season where God seemed silent, as though His protection, provision, and guidance had suddenly disappeared? Well, today on The Verdict, Pastor John Munro begins a new study in the book of Esther, revealing how the invisible hand of God is always at work.

Modern radios are very selective. They pick up one station at a time. So as you listen to A NEW BEGINNING, you’re not hearing the latest hit on the Polka Parade, or pork belly prices from the farm report. Today, Pastor Greg Laurie points out we need to be just as selective with our hearing. It’s all too easy to let the voices of our culture plant ideas and values in our heads. But today, we’ll see two brokenhearted individuals who were tuned in to Jesus.
