As we kick off our Lenten sermon series and book study, Pastor Gabe introduces the concept of the "spiritual junk drawer," why it matters, and how to get it clean. Hint: it's all about grace baby!

Digging Deeper Questions:

Reflect for a moment on the various influences in your life, from family and friends to popular culture, as well as your upbringing and education. Which has had the greatest impact on your spirituality? Does any specific idea or truth that's important to you come to mind?

Taking a critical look at your spiritual and religious assumptions is a vulnerable task. It requires humility and trust. What are you feeling as we embark on this task? Would you characterize yourself as being cautious and guarded, open and unafraid, or somewhere in between?

For this Ash Wednesday, Pastor Marcus Lane preached on Joel 2:12-19 with a sermon titled Return. Pastor Marcus walked us through how Joel shows us when to return, how to return, and what happens when we return.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "Rediscover Mission" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Bigger Table".

Digging Deeper Questions:

What places in your life do you see God calling you to "scatter" to be a part of his work?

Where do you find it most challenging to move with compassion when others wrong you.

Where have you seen God's harvest most clearly? Where do you want to pray that God's harvest would keep bearing fruit today?

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Gabe Kasper "Rediscover Community" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Bless God".

Digging Deeper Questions:

When you think of the word community what comes to mind for you?

When/where was the last time you most felt part of a community?

What are some of the tensions found in being a community built first and foremost on grace?

Do you ever find yourself falling into the trap of the pharisee? How does that manifest itself for you?

Pastor Gabe really sat on this verse, Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. How does this verse hit you?

The church is a community. But what is the nature of christian community? In this sermon, Pastor Gabe roots us in the reality that above all else the church must be a community rooted in God's grace in Christ Jesus for all people.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Randy Duncan "Chapel." and hear from Amy Duncan and Matt Korte about God taking us to places that may not be comfortable and Super Sunday.

Digging Deeper Questions:

God did not just deliver Israel from Egypt but to Himself. Where do you see God's deliverance in your own story, and how might He be inviting you closer to Himself right now?

Exodus says the people gave because their hearts were stirred, not pressured. What does joyful, willing response to God look like in your life at this season, with your time, gifts, or presence?

The glory that once filled the tabernacle now dwells among us in Jesus. How does knowing that Christ is truly with you shape the way you face uncertainty, loss, or daily decisions?

Israel moved when the cloud moved and rested when it rested. Where might you be tempted to stay comfortable when Jesus is calling you to trust Him and take a step into the unknown?

Who might God be calling you to love, serve, or walk alongside so that they experience Christ through you?

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "Lutheran." and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me".

Digging Deeper Questions:

How does the constant demand of the laws we try to live our lives by highlight our need for grace?

Why does the message of the righteousness of God through faith sometimes seem hard to believe? Why is it so freeing?

In what ways can the message of the Gospel be a source of unity and equality for God's people?
