“A great marriage,” Pastor Rob says, “is grounded in the giving and receiving of truth.” As he launches a five-week series on Marriage, Singleness, and Parenting, Rob examines the importance of speaking truth, demonstrating love, and exercising grace in order to experience marriage as God designed it to be.

For those who first witnessed Jesus’ resurrection, as well as those who celebrate it today, Easter is all about change—sudden and powerful change. In his Easter message, Pastor Rob explores the implications of the change that was triggered when Jesus rose from the dead, and what it can mean for each one of us who will allow that change to transform our hearts and radically change our lives.

The world-transforming events of Holy Week began with a flicker of hope among the cheering crowds that the long-awaited Messiah had arrived. But while the crowds soon had their doubts, Pastor Lon says, there is no question that hope had arrived—even for those of us today who believe our situation is hopeless!

When we face extreme difficulty, our friends—both those who do and don't follow Christ—often offer advice on how to stand firm. But as Pastor Hanibal reminds us, only one thing can help us hold fast in times of pain and chaos—and it's available from God alone.

Most of us would agree, we live in a leadership-challenged world, with the emphasis on ego and personal success. As we continue our series, Rob talks about being and living out hope through our Christ-like care of others, as he looks at five practical principals for leadership—servant-style—laid out for us in 1 Peter, chapter 5.

No matter what chaos, suffering, or struggle threatens to overwhelm us, 1 Peter 4 brings perspective to our pain and a surprising answer to the age-old question—one you may be asking—Why me?

How would we live if we really believed what 1 Peter 4:7 says: “The end of all things is near”? In his message, Pastor Rob reminds us of the “ultimate reality” that Jesus could come at any moment, and life in this world will change in an instant. The question is not whether that will happen, but whether we will choose to live in anticipation of that coming day.

Pastor Rob begins this message by sharing eight simple words a friend spoke to him that changed the trajectory of his life. He then continues our series by considering the power of words —both God's and our own—and four areas of practical instruction on words laid out for us in 1 Peter 3.

Continuing our series from 1 Peter, Pastor Lon considers how we can thrive in a chaotic world that's changing so quickly around us. He reminds us that we are part of a royal, holy priesthood—temporary citizens, yes—but on display so that even through our suffering and submission the world might be saved.
