4 days ago
A heartbreaking-but-universal part of the human experience is to lose someone we love. The people we love shape our identities and make us who we are. So when we lose them, it can feel like we’re losing part of our very selves. In today’s sermon, we’ll consider the experience of loss through the lens of faith in a God who refuses to let death unravel us. If you have ever experienced a painful loss, this is for you.

“The Way of Jesus” // Daniel Childs
Sunday Oct 13, 2024
Sunday Oct 13, 2024
Christians across the political spectrum are often keen to assert that their faith informs their stances. Unfortunately, few Christians seem to consider how their faith should inform the way they advocate those stances. So in today’s sermon we’ll explore how the way of Jesus should inform the way we engage in politics and why that’s vitally important. Join us as we continue our series on the intersection of faith and politics.

In case you haven’t heard, there’s an election coming up. Some of us are super passionate about it…and others of us are super not. Some of us feel deeply invested…others of us just feel cynical.

“Out of Control” // Jamison Doehring
Sunday Sep 29, 2024
Sunday Sep 29, 2024
Is there anything we want more than control? We think that if we could just get things under control, all our problems would be solved and we would finally be satisfied with our lives. But what if the control we long for isn’t even possible? What if it’s actually a good thing that so much of our life is out of our control? What if we can get what our heart most deeply desires without being in control? That’s what we’ll explore in today’s sermon. Join us as we wrap up our series, “Counterfeit Gods.”

“Bad Sex” // Daniel Childs
Sunday Sep 22, 2024
Sunday Sep 22, 2024
Our culture teaches us that sex has the power to satisfy the deepest longings of our hearts. But while sex can be good (!), it cannot ultimately give us what our hearts most deeply crave. And when we put too much hope in sex, we find constant disappointment and we leave a trail of destruction in our wake. So in today’s sermon, we’ll talk about why sex is good, when sex becomes bad, and how to do sexuality the way God intended.

“Child, You Are Fully Invited” // Asya Coles
Sunday Sep 01, 2024
Sunday Sep 01, 2024
Jesus tells us that in order to discover his Kingdom, we must humble ourselves like little children. So what does it mean for us to have “child-like faith”? And how can we develop a “child-like” faith that doesn’t become a “child-ish” faith? These are some of the questions we’ll consider in today’s sermon.
