Youth Aflame

It's human nature to run from fears and challenges, but God uses these enemies in our lives as an opportunity for us to overcome. When we defeat our enemies in Christ, he projects us into our destiny and into the perfect plan he has for our life.

The goal of every Christian should be to conform to the likeness of God. We have to realize that becoming a godly person is a process. As we strive, we will fall, but the godly will always get back up and keep fighting the good fight.

After we receive salvation in Christ God is constantly calling us to take another step and go to the next level in our relationship with him. So many desire to go to that next level but aren't willing to count the cost. In this message, we hear Jesus describe the cost of becoming a "next-level" disciple.

In his first sermon, Jordan reminds us of what it looks like to turn on the light of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

So many people believe that "God just wants me to be happy" While God is concerned with our emotional satisfaction there are greater things at stake than how we feel. When we forsake our personal happiness for that "greater thing" we'll find a joy that goes beyond circumstances.

For decades many pastor's have said, "If you've said THE PRAYER you're saved." In this message we find that salvation is about something bigger than repeating the words of a pastor.

You've probably heard it said, "God only helps those who helps themselves." The truth is while we were still enemies of God he sent Jesus to die for us. He loves us and pursues us even when we aren't helping ourselves.

Pilate gave the Jews a choice, should he release: Jesus (perfect and innocent) or Barabbas (the guilty murderer). The crowd chose Barabbas and he is set free while Jesus is punished. This is our story. Jesus took the punishment we deserved so that we could have a chance at freedom.

In our new series, "SCANDALOUS" we talk about the scandals surrounding Jesus during Holy Week. When Jesus came to cleanse the temple he made so many waves that he went from "Hosanna" to "Hang Him" in 4 days.
