If you get what you deserve, would you be happy with what you got? When we try to live up to an impossible standard and fall short, we might deserve shame, punishment, or worse—but what if, instead, you could receive grace? You get what you deserve always sounds way better when we're talking about someone else and not ourselves. Join us this Sunday as we close out the "Things Jesus Never Said" series, to see why, with Jesus, “You get what you deserve,” doesn’t have to apply to you.

Momma said there'd be days like this. So did Jesus. Turns out momma and Jesus agree that life brings it's share of hard and challenging days, though we may be tempted to believe otherwise. Thank goodness Jesus is there to see us through.

“Do what makes you happy.” You’ve probably gotten this advice at some point in your life—but is it good advice? And did Jesus ever say it? Join us as we get to the bottom of why it can be so hard to find true happiness, and what Jesus did say about joy and happiness. It wasn’t “Do what makes you happy.” It was far better!

Jesus shared a lot of wisdom that's been recorded in the Bible. But lately, He also seems to share a ton on Instagram, on screen-printed mugs, and in those images your aunt posts on Facebook, too. But how much of it is true? Where’s the line between what He actually told us, and the Things Jesus Never Said?

Following Jesus’ crucifixion, his followers expected what anyone expects after someone dies—that the person would remain that way. But one of Jesus’ followers, John, gave an eyewitness account that summarized the main event surrounding Christianity: Jesus rose from the dead. In this seventh and final sign that John documents, he makes the case that Jesus is exactly who he claimed to be.

At different points in our lives, many of us wonder why a good God would allow bad things to happen. And without a clear response, that dilemma could cause us to question God’s existence altogether. The Gospel writer John documented an occasion where Jesus not only brought his friend Lazarus back to life but also demonstrated how God can exist in the midst of a world of evil and suffering.

In order to demonstrate who he was, Jesus performed a number of miracles, which the apostle John referred to as “signs.” The first of those signs was at a joyous occasion where Jesus turned water into wine. The second sign was in the midst of a heartbreaking circumstance in which a father desperately asked Jesus to heal his dying son.

Beginning with first-century followers of Jesus, trusting in Jesus has been a response to evidence—not simply a hope that something is true. The Gospel writer John referred to the miracles of Jesus as signs that gave evidence of who Jesus was. The first sign John documented was when Jesus—with a nudge from his mother—attended a wedding and turned water into wine.

The one thing that may totally change how you spend and save your money has nothing to do with spending or saving. It’s a question. And those who have been brave enough to answer this question have never regretted it.

Are you mastering your money or being mastered by it? Maybe it’s time to flip the script. Instead of striving to have enough money to satisfy your appetites, Jesus encouraged his listeners to flip the script on how they approach money.
