  • Proverbs: An Introduction

    Introducing Proverbs! We will be going through the book of Proverbs (starting in Chapter 10) and will spend each 5 minute episode on one verse. We will first look at its immediate context for how we ought to live our lives and then see how Jesus has lived it out on our behalf in the Gospel. By keeping our eyes on Jesus we can respond to the Book of Proverbs out of gratitude and not fear in our obedience.

  • Ecclesiastes Part 2: Ends + Means and Overthinking

    In this follow up message, we see how damaging it can be when we begin to worship the blessings that were meant to make us look up to a loving God. It is when we mix up our ends and means that we struggle with much undue anxiety and overthinking. Come join us as we dive into God's Word verse-by-verse ...

  • Ecclesiastes Part 1: Park Benches and the Pursuit of Wind

  • Romans 16:1-27: The Myth of the Cowboy Christian

    Throughout his letters, Paul refers to the Christian life as a battle, a race, a living sacrifice.  Through such analogies he shows us that the Christian life is one of trials and pressure; it is not easy, and unlike those classic Lone Ranger TV episodes back in the day, this mission cannot be done alone.  We need brothers and sisters in Christ who can come along side us when we are weak and help us run the race God has called us to.  Come join us as we wrap up Romans verse-by-verse ...

  • Romans 14:1-23, 15:1-7: Agreeing to Disagree

    If my friends and I follow Christ, why is it that we often have different opinions on various controversial issues?  If we have the same Spirit within us, why don't we all agree on all things?  In these verses, Paul explains how the body of believers is made up of many different people with different opinions on secondary issues, but that what joins us together is not uniformity in all of our opinions, but a commitment to Jesus that is greater than our differences.  Come join us as we go verse-by-verse ...

  • Romans 13:1-14: "Render unto Caesar ..."

    The question of how individuals should relate to the government has always been a hot-button topic, and in such a polarized political time, this question is just as relevant.  How should we as Christ-followers relate to our government?  How should we as Christ-followers relate to a government when it can be cruel and unjust?  Join us, as we answer these questions verse-by-verse ...

  • Romans 12:1-21: IKEA, Caterpillars and the Will of God for Your Life
    "What is God's will for my life?" This is probably one of the most frequently asked questions of the Christian life. In Romans 12, Paul shows us that God's will is usually less of a mysterious road map of decisions to decipher and more of a person that we are being transformed into. Join us as we go verse by verse ...

    *My thinking on this passage has been largely informed by Pastor JD Greear and his sermon series on Romans.

  • Romans 10:18-21, 11:1-36: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
    Why did many Jews of Jesus' day not follow Him? In Romans 11, Paul gives us a glimpse into the wonderful salvation plan of God, fueled by grace alone. Join us, as we go verse-by-verse ...

  • Romans 9:32-33, 10:1-15: A Simple Grace
    In this chapter, Paul gives us an example of what a false, counterfeit faith looks like, and how tiring it can be. He then goes on to show us that a true, saving faith is not about what we can do. Instead, the follower of Christ can find true rest knowing that salvation is not about searching for Christ, it's about realizing He comes searching for each of us. And now we can join Him in His mission of meeting people where they are at.

  • Romans 9:1-24: A Beautiful Harmony
    Romans 9 is notorious for being a chapter of great controversy as it is undoubtedly confusing and difficult to understand. However, if we take it the way Paul intends, we will find it to be deeply humbling and profoundly hopeful. Come and see as we go verse-by-verse ...
