Hayah! - Become the presence of God
The first installment of our Hope Remains Series. In this message we explore the little known book of Zepheniah and how sometimes we have to stop living like God doesn't exist if we want to take on the life God has in mind.
Stretch? - and bonus
To be the perfect Christian needs to be stretched? Why God doesn't want us to be useless.
Who Cares?
To be a perfect Christian we have to lift up each others burdens? And lean into the mess??? What does tension have to do with it?
Perfect Church?
Is there such a thing as a 'perfect church'? What does it mean for us to lean in to life together and become the family God is dreaming of.
The Perfect Xian?
Is there such a thing as the 'perfect' Christian? Why do we keep adding to the 'list' of things that a perfect Christian is supposed to do, or be... and why doesn't that match up with the day to day reality for most Christ followers?
Family Vacation: Encounters w/the Divine
What do you do to tell the story God is weaving in your life? Guest speakers Gary and Candy Barrett share from a classic story in Genesis and their lives. *there's bonus content too!
Servant of All
How do we capture God's heart? By becoming the servant of all. Take your place in God's family.
11 Pints
What does it take to see a move of God? What does a story about slapping water have to do with it?
Thunderstruck
What does it take to see God work in our lives and city? Do we have a role to play... Perhaps it has something to do with blood and thunder.
In this message Pastor Todd Barker teaches from 2 Kings chapter 2 where Elijah is taken in a whirlwind to heaven and Elisha takes on a double portion of the great prophets spirit. It leaves us thunderstruck with the power and presence of God. Do you have that kind of power?
Things Jesus Never Said: You Get What You Deserve
The final installment of Things Jesus Never Said.
You Won't Have Bad Days
Things Jesus Never Said: part 3 - You Won't Have Bad Days.
“Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. …” John 16:20 NIV
“Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy. 21 A woman giving birth to a child has pain because her time has come; but when her baby is born she forgets the anguish because of her joy that a child is born into the world.” John 16:20-21 NIV
“So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.” John 16:22 NIV
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world …” John 16:33 NIV
“… In this world you will have trouble ...” John 16:33 NIV
PROVE YOUR FAITH.
So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while. 7 These trials will show that your faith is genuine. … 1 Peter 1:6-7 NLT
- A faith that has been tested is a faith that can be trusted.
PREPARE YOU FOR PURPOSE.
Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4 NIV
For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God. 1 John 5:4-5 NIV
“… In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 NIV
Go Do What Makes You Happy
Part 2 of a 4 part message series called: Jesus Never Said That.
Jesus shared a lot of wisdom in the Bible. And 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?
In this message, Pastor Todd Barker shares from a narrative about an adulterous woman from John chapter 8 in the New Testament. In this, we examine the trap of temptations and why the good news is a call to be free of sin!
You Don't Need to Forgive Them
Part 1 of a 4 part message series called: Jesus Never Said That.
Jesus shared a lot of wisdom in the Bible. And 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?
In this message, Pastor Todd Barker shares from Jesus' teaching in the sermon on the mount about God's forgiveness and our connection with it.
With Perspective
Our faith was not meant to keep up cozy up next to the fire but go through it! In this installment of Above the Ceiling, a series on prayer, Pastor Todd teaches from John 17 on how Jesus prays for protection. We often pray that too... but what if we need a different perspective?
With Authority
The opening message of our Above the Ceiling series. This week we explore what it means to pray with the authority given to us by the Holy Spirit.
Prayer.
The power, presence, and movement of God.
Prayer changes us. It moves the hand of God.
Prayer.
Are we doing it right?
Just what exactly is happening....
Above the ceiling.
Stand Firm
The final installment of Masterpiece in Progress - Guest Speaker Pastor Michelle Anderson teaches about what it means to stay in progress through trial and for the long haul as we put on the whole armor of God!
Mimic and Grow
There's something about a process of growth. Perhaps our success and failure isn't about the 'results' nearly as much as it is in the process. How is God changing us?
The OLD has to GO
Becoming a Christian is more than just putting on new clothes - its a becoming something completely different. How do we do that? Listen to what this section of Ephesians teaches us.
Masterpiece in Progress: Take Your Name
From Ephesians 4....
How we operate: ID/VALUES ---> actions/rituals ----> reinforce/reinterpret ----> ID/VALUES
GOD HAS CALLED YOU. GOD IS CALLING US.
To become who God has made us to be, we must BIND ourselves to the Holy Spirit.
The thing I'm a part of is bigger than the part I play; but the part I play MATTERS.
We choose to be responsible with grace.
*** God calls us to grow so that we can use our gifts for his glory.
******* Our maturity is measured not by our gifts but by how we love God and love others.
The Display
Part 2 of 9. We are the display of God's goodness and mercy in the world? How do we become the 'us' we want to be?
The End In Mind
The first of a 9 part message series through the book of Ephesians. What if life in Christ has to start with the end in mind? Where is all creation headed anyway....
Life to the full
The final installment of Christmas Stories - we look at a particular set of prophets and why their story sets the Christmas story up for eternal meaning for all of us.
