Jesus taught us all about life and walking with God, and at the end he taught us what to do with all of that - to take his teaching, and teach others. Go make disciples!

Jesus is alive! Join us as we celebrate the resurrection and explore what it means that Jesus is raised to life again for us!

Jesus has taught us how to live, how to worship, how to follow, but he also told us about the end. Our lives and this world will not go on forever - God will bring a conclusion to all things according to his will and for his glory. How does that change the way we should live?

Jesus is calling us to follow him, but we have to set down everything we are and everything we have if we do. The Rich Young Ruler couldn't do it. Can we?

The call of Jesus isn't to deny the world, it's to deny ourselves. We don't want to follow the patterns of the world, but Jesus is inviting us to see that the problem isn't all around us, it's in us too.

Jesus taught us what our mission looks like, what he has called us to do, and he is inviting us to follow him as he brings his Kingdom here to the world!

Jesus told us how to live, how to worship, and he finished his sermon on the mount with how to follow. He has grand promises and serious warnings for us on this journey, but he promises he will walk with us all the way through it!

So much of our efforts to worship wind up focused on ourselves and what other people think, but Jesus is calling us to look up and see our Father!

Jesus calls us to do something harder than anything else - love our enemies. The people who are hurting us, the people who make our lives miserable, the people who hurt the people we love. How can we do that? We need Jesus!

Jesus has taught us how to live, and what life in his kingdom is supposed to look like. We are called to something far deeper than just acting nice!

If we are living in the kingdom, that kingdom should be shining through us and bringing light and salt to the people around us!

What did Jesus tell us about his kingdom? What did he tell us about life and worship and relationship? Join us as we begin our study of the things Jesus said to us, and what he means for us to do about it!

Jesus is the resurrection and the life, and he has power over death and all of creation. We have nothing to fear if we believe in him!

Jesus doesn't point toward the way, he doesn't tell us about the truth, and he doesn't describe life. He IS these things, and he is inviting us to know them in him.

Jesus is the light of the world, driving out darkness and helping us to see!

The Word was made flesh, and he told us that he is the very thing that sustains and feeds us. He is the bread of life, and is everything we need to live!

Jesus is the Gate and the Good Shepherd. He is the way and he is the guide, and he came to lead us home!

As we explore the word this year, we come to the season of advent and confront the reality that the word is not a book but a person, and that person has told us what he is. Jesus is the Word made Flesh, and he has come to reveal his Father to us!

The power of prophecy is not the telling of the future, but God calling us back to relationship. He wants us to trust him, to know that he is in control, and that he desires that we would live in relationship with him!

Walking through hardship and suffering is incredibly difficult for us to do, and we can even often feel like we're failing because as followers of Jesus shouldn't we be filled with joy all the time? God has filled his word with lament to show us that he hears our cries, and that our hurts are not failure but part of relationship.
