Ridiculous Grace| Part 2 | The Scandal of Grace | Chris Voigt
April 16, 2024 22:36 - 36 minutes - 51.3 MBThe Scandal of Grace Ridiculous Grace April 14, 2024 Last Sunday we learned that grace is an undeserved gift; free to the recipient, but costly to the giver. We learned that grace has many facets… patience, kindness, compassion, forgiveness and love. And we learned that grace is always active, never passive. Grace always takes the initiative, makes the first move toward another. Grace is meant to be given away… without reservation, hesitation, or exception. Who in your life needs a gift of g...
Ridiculous Grace | Part 1 | The Aptitudes of Grace | Chris Voigt
April 10, 2024 00:45 - 36 minutes - 50.9 MBThe Aptitudes of Grace Ridiculous Grace April 7, 2024 We are beginning a new sermon series this Sunday that we’re calling Ridiculous Grace. If you watch the evening news or scroll through social media, you know we live in a very narcissistic, me-first, entitled culture. The messages all around us tell us we deserve more, better, and faster. Grace is in extremely short supply and it has nothing to do with supply chain issues. Perhaps we’re lacking in grace because we’ve forgotten or maybe, n...
Easter 2024 | Invitation to Believe | Chris Voigt
April 03, 2024 22:55 - 36 minutes - 49.9 MBAn Invitation to Believe Easter Sunday March 31, 2024 More than two thousand years ago, Jesus gave His followers another kind of forecast. One they should have known they could be certain of. But things in their world got dark and scary really fast, and they lost their grip on that hope-filled forecast. Things didn’t play out the way they expected and as a result, they didn’t know what they could believe. Was it all a waste? Or, even worse, a lie? Had they been duped? Today, on this side of...
Greater | Part 12 | All That and a Bag of Chips | Chris Voigt
March 26, 2024 23:52 - 41 minutes - 57.8 MBAll That and a Bag of Chips Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews March 24, 2024 Over the past 3 months, we’ve been on a journey through the New Testament book of Hebrews. We’ve spent weeks unpacking deep theological truths that have helped us to better understand why we believe what we believe, and given us a solid foundation for living every day with faith, hope, and love. As we wrap up this series, which we’ve called Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews, we’re gettin...
Greater | Part 11 | Run for Your Life | Chris Voigt
March 19, 2024 21:36 - 35 minutes - 50.2 MBRun For Your Life Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews March 17, 2024 There’s a famous line in the movie, Chariots of Fire, that has Eric Liddell saying, “God made me fast. And when I run, I feel his pleasure.” God did make him fast and he ran for God’s glory, but Liddell never said that. What he did say and what most people don’t know, is that he believed, “God made me for China.” After winning the gold medal in the 400-meter race at the 1924 Olympics in Paris, Eric Liddell retu...
Greater | Part 10 | Faith for Today | Chris Voigt
March 13, 2024 18:34 - 41 minutes - 57.6 MBFaith For Today Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews March 10, 2024 Over the past couple of months, we have been digging deep into the book of Hebrews in a series we’ve called, Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus through Hebrews. And, we covered some pretty heady theology. But now, we’re making a shift. We’re getting to the part where the rubber meets the road; where we figure out how these deep truths can make a real difference in our daily lives. As we gather this week, we’re taking...
Greater | Part 9 | Ironing Out the Kinks | Michelle Snook
March 06, 2024 23:38 - 46 minutes - 64.1 MBWe’re discovering all the ways in which Jesus is greater than the Old Testament system of relating to God. Originally written to a group of Jewish Christ-followers who were experiencing difficulty and persecution for their faith; this letter was meant to encourage them to keep their eyes on Jesus, to hold tightly to their faith, to keep on keeping on… because Jesus is greater! ----------------------------------- TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP ---------------------------------- Let us know that you ...
Greater | Part 8 | Interior Renovation | Jon Sprouse
March 06, 2024 23:37 - 44 minutes - 61.5 MBSince the first of the year, we’ve been taking a deep look at how Jesus and the new covenant way of relating to God that He makes possible is greater than the old way. This week we’re looking at how Jesus changes the access we have to God and the difference that makes in our lives. ----------------------------------- TAKE YOUR NEXT STEP ---------------------------------- Let us know that you were watching with us and you will be entered to receive a free prize by completing our Connectio...
Greater | Part 7 | Obsolete | Chris Voigt
February 21, 2024 00:24 - 34 minutes - 47.8 MBObsolete Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews February 18, 2024 We are mid-way through our series, Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews. Over the last several weeks, we’ve been taking a deep look at how Jesus is greater than the Old Covenant system that the Jews were so familiar with. They were comfortable with they way things were. But the writer of Hebrews lays out a detailed case of all the reasons that Jesus is better. The old way is obsolete; there’s a better way n...
Greater | Part 6 | Melchize-Who? | Chris Voigt
February 14, 2024 19:01 - 36 minutes - 50.7 MBMelchize-who? Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews February 11, 2024 In Bible times, names of people and places were very much given with the meaning in mind. There were even occasions when God changed someone’s name to reflect a new direction or calling He had given them. Sometimes it’s a nickname that holds deep significance – whether for good or not so good. For the past several weeks, we’ve been studying our way through the New Testament book of Hebrews. Ironically, we don’t ...
Greater | Part 5 | Move the Ball Down the Field | Chris Voigt
February 06, 2024 22:30 - 39 minutes - 54.4 MBWe are working our way through the New Testament book of Hebrews in a sermon series we’ve called Greater. The unidentified author of this letter is making the case that Jesus is greater than anything – than any other hope, dream, or system; prophet, priest or king. He’s about to take his readers to the next level in his rationale, when he realizes there’s a roadblock… his readers aren’t ready for what he has to say. They have some spiritual growing up to do. Growing up physically – as lo...
Greater | Part 4 | One and Done | Chris Voigt
January 30, 2024 21:26 - 27 minutes - 38.8 MBWe are studying our way through the New Testament book of Hebrews in a series we’ve called, Greater. This letter was written to Jewish Christ-followers who found themselves experiencing hardships that had them longing for the old days. “It would be so much easier if we could just go back to the way things used to be!” But God had called them to something… or Someone… greater. We are all pulled, in one way or another to settle for comfort and convenience. But God is calling us to something g...
Greater | Part 3 | The Myth of Greener Pastures | Michelle Snook
January 23, 2024 22:15 - 39 minutes - 55.7 MBThe Myth of Greener Pastures Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews January 21, 2024 We are studying our way through the book of Hebrews in a sermon series we’ve called Greater. The letter of Hebrews was written to encourage Jewish followers of Jesus who were at risk of forgetting all that they had received in Christ and returning to the comfort zone of the past. It’s a pull we all feel at one time or another. In the world of human endeavor and achievement, there is always room for...
Greater | Part 2 | Catch Your Drift | Chris Voigt
January 17, 2024 19:05 - 32 minutes - 46.1 MBCatch Your Drift Greater: The Supremacy of Jesus Through Hebrews January 14, 2024 There is something appealing about the idea of just drifting along, going wherever the tide or breezes carry you. On the surface it sounds relaxing or refreshing. After all…navigating the demands of daily life is hard work. We can feel pulled in a million difference directions. Who wouldn’t welcome an opportunity to just float for a bit? And ‘a bit’ isn’t usually a problem. It’s when coasting or floating alon...

Over the next 12 weeks, we will be diving deep into the New Testament book of Hebrews. It’s a book that will help us understand how Jesus is truly greater; greater than any person, any system or organization, greater than anything. There is only One who is truly the Greatest of All Time. His name is Jesus. I hope you’ll join us as we...
What We Learned in 2023 | Chris Voigt
January 02, 2024 21:23 - 49 minutes - 68.8 MBWhat We Learned in 2023 December 31, 2023 Jesus loved to tell stories. Storytelling was one of His go-to methods of helping His disciples better understand God and His plan for the world and their lives. Stories can move us, challenge us, inspire and encourage us. They can open our eyes to things that we otherwise might not see and our minds to possibilities that we might otherwise not consider. Sunday, as we come to the end of 2023, we want to take a look back at some of the things tha...
Missing Peace | Part 4 | Disappointed With God | Chris Voigt
December 26, 2023 21:15 - 30 minutes - 42.6 MBDisappointed By God Missing Peace December 24, 2023 We all have expectations about certain things. Your kids are counting on Santa to bring just what they want for Christmas, but you know “Santa’s” budget is too tight. You have holiday traditions that aren’t working out. Perhaps there’s a broken relationship that’s making this season hard, instead of happy. Or maybe you’ve been working towards a goal, but not seeing the success you anticipated. Attaching our hopes and happiness to people, pl...
Missing Peace | Part 3 | Why Do I Have to Wait? | Chris Voigt
December 19, 2023 21:56 - 33 minutes - 45.7 MBWhy Do I Have To Wait? Missing Peace December 17, 2023 It’s the Christmas season and as we anticipate the celebration of Jesus’ birth, we’re working our way through a series we’ve called, Missing Peace. I imagine that you, along with most everybody I know, struggles with waiting. Whether it’s waiting for a response to your email, or a call from the doctor, or long lines at just about every store, stoplight, or drive-thru this time of year. We don’t wait very well and it steals the joy right ...
Missing Peace | Part 2 | You’re Driving Me Crazy | Michelle Snook
December 13, 2023 01:08 - 44 minutes - 61 MBYou're Driving Me Crazy! Missing Peace December 10, 2023 Luke 2 records the refrain declared by the host of heaven, “Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.” But across centuries, continents, and cultures, no matter which corner of history we search, we discover an overwhelming deficit of peace. Certainly, even a quick scan of today’s headlines reveals a serious lack. So, did the angels get it wrong? Perhaps the answer lies in where we’re lookin...
Missing Peace | Part 1 | Is Peace Possible? | Chris Voigt
December 05, 2023 22:47 - 36 minutes - 50 MBIs Peace Possible? Missing Peace December 3, 2023 The holiday season is upon us. Thanksgiving has come and gone and Christmas is on the horizon. But when our newsfeeds continue to be filled with stories of international conflict, economic uncertainty, political division, death, disease, heartbreak, and loss, it’s hard to believe that the message of Christmas - peace on earth, goodwill to men - is even possible. The realities of our world kinda suck the holly-jolly right out of the season… if...
As the World Burns | Part 2 | Don’t Blink | Chris Voigt
November 29, 2023 00:23 - 42 minutes - 58.4 MBDON'T BLINK! - as the world burns - November 26, 2023 This Sunday, we’re continuing our look beneath the subject lines and rhetoric that fill our newsfeeds, to see what God’s Word has to say about the things happening in our world. We’re looking to gain a firmer grasp on what we can know for sure, and what we must confidently entrust to the sovereignty of God. Because in the midst of the chaos, one thing is certain: it is very easy to become distracted by the to-do lists, the deadlines, disa...
As the World Burns | Part 1 | Teetering on the Brink | Chris Voigt
November 21, 2023 21:49 - 33 minutes - 46.9 MBTEETERING ON THE BRINK - as the world burns - November 19, 2023 It’s no wonder that as we look around our world, scroll through social media, and listen to the news, that so many of people are struggling with uncertainty and fear about the future. Things are very dark in our world and just seem to be getting darker. Is there any hope to hold onto? Over the next couple of weeks, we’re going to dig beneath the headlines and take a deeper look at what is really going on in our world and where ...
Parenting | Part 6 | A Faith of Their Own | Chris Voigt
November 15, 2023 01:10 - 32 minutes - 44.6 MBA Faith Of Their Own Parenting: Winning the Battle for Your Child's Heart November 12, 2023 This Sunday we are wrapping up our series, Parenting: Winning the Battle for Your Child’s Heart. We’ve covered a lot of ground the past few weeks, but we’ve saved the best – and maybe the hardest – for last. As parents who have committed their lives to Christ, we want our kids to grow up to be followers of Jesus too. But all too often, we feel inadequate or intimidated by the responsibility of teachi...

November 07, 2023 22:51 - 37 minutes - 52.4 MBBecause I Said So Parenting: Winning the Battle for Your Child's Heart November 5, 2023 As we continue in our series on parenting this week, we’ll be taking a look at the difference between discipline and punishment. Though we often use the words interchangeably, they aren’t the same thing at all. Punishment is linked to condemnation and control; discipline is connected to redemption and restoration, to growth and development. Just as a shepherd’s rod can be a source of security and comfor...
Parenting | Part 4 | Marriage Matters | Chris Voigt
November 01, 2023 20:00 - 38 minutes - 53.9 MBThis week, as we continue in our series on parenting, we’ll be taking a look at how much marriage impacts our kids. In our world today, the traditional family isn’t so traditional anymore. There are lots of single parent households, broken and blended families, and grandparents raising grandkids. Families come in all shapes, sizes, and situations. But regardless of their status, the ability of those raising children to model what healthy relationships look like for their children is what est...
Parenting | Part 3 | Watch Your Weight | Chris Voigt
October 25, 2023 00:38 - 41 minutes - 57.1 MBWe are midway through our series Parenting: Winning the Battle for Your Child’s Heart. This week, we’re taking a look at the weight of our words. We all know that words are powerful and that we need to be wise in how we use them. We know words can be misunderstood, taken out of context, or be twisted. But when it comes to our kids, there’s a whole ‘nother level of potency to the words we speak, and to the ones we don’t. Words, both spoken and unspoken, from a parent to a child, carry more we...

Throughout this series we are taking a look at big picture principles for successful parenting that will help us to navigate the nitty gritty of daily family life. We all know that change is one of the most certain things about life. Every time we turn around something else is different, updated, changed in a way that requires us to adapt. And it’s no different in parenting. Just wh...

Being a parent is the most challenging job in the world. Just when you think you’ve got things figured out, something changes. That’s both the fun and the frustration of parenting. And in order to be successful, we need an unchanging goal. A north star, so to speak, that keeps us focused and on ...

October 04, 2023 17:22 - 37 minutes - 52.3 MBRisky Faith Stuck: Get Back In the Race October 1, 2023 This week we are wrapping up our series, Stuck: Get Back in the Race. We’re going to unpack what it could or perhaps should look like for followers of Jesus to live out a faith that takes risks; that is unflinchingly ready to say ‘Yes’ to the possibilities and opportunities God puts in our lives. I don’t know about you, but I want to live a life with no regrets. A life of saying ‘yes’ to whatever Jesus calls me to – regardless of the ...

September 26, 2023 20:22 - 40 minutes - 56.3 MBStuck In a Rut Stuck: Get Back In the Game September 24, 2023 We are in week 3 of our 4-week series we’ve called Stuck: Get Back in the Game. This week we’ll consider some of the reasons we get stuck and stay stuck, along with some how-tos for getting unstuck. Everyone, at some point – and probably more than once – is going to get stuck. It might be relationally, emotionally, financially, spiritually, or even physically. And when it happens, having a strategy for getting unstuck will be th...
Stuck | Part 2 | You Who | Chris Voigt
September 19, 2023 17:36 - 44 minutes - 61 MBWe are in week two of a new sermon series we’ve called, Stuck: Get Back in the Race. As we continue in our study this week, we’re going to take a look at who God says we are - beneath the labels, the job descriptions, the hats we wear and the roles we play. Strip all those things away and what’s left? What’s at the core of who you are? And how does that shape the way you live? Having a clear understanding of who we are is essential for healthy growth. And there isn’t anyone who doesn’t need...

September 12, 2023 23:25 - 44 minutes - 61.4 MBThe (UN)comfort Zone Stuck: Get Back In the Game September 10, 2023 Most people want to use their time well and spend it wisely. We value productivity, growth, health and happiness. We want life to be good; always moving up and to the right. But sooner or later, we all get sidelined – something breaks down, whether in us or around us, and we find ourselves stuck. Stuck can have a lot of different faces and look a lot of different ways. Which can sometimes make it difficult to recognize. Th...

September 07, 2023 15:50 - 35 minutes - 49.2 MBWe are coming to the end of our sermon series we’ve called Beautiful Surrender: The Blessing of a Psalm 23 Life. As we’ve journeyed through this psalm together, we’ve discovered many benefits of choosing to live a life fully surrendered to Jesus.

As we gather together this Sunday, we come to verse 4 of Psalm 23. This is the ‘comfort’ part of the psalm that people all over the world know so well. And buried in the middle of this familiar verse about a valley of death is an ordinary preposition that we often overlook. It’s th...

As we gather together this Sunday, we’ll be looking at verses 2 and 3 of Psalm 23; verses that describe the daily circle of life for a sheep under the care of a shepherd. It’s a circle in which there is great comfort, but it’s also a cycle, in which there is growth. You could say that our weekly, Sunda...

I bet you know it by heart... “The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.” That’s the old-school version. In more modern translations it says, “I have all that I need.” Notice that David, the author of this psalm doesn’t say I will have all that I need. This isn’t a promise of ...

Life Interrupted: Reluctant Prophet, Relentless God July 30, 2023 In an online article at Inc.com, Ryan Jenkins, author, speaker and generations expert writes, “Entitlement is perhaps the top word associated with the Millennial generation. In fact, 71 percent of American adults think of Millennials as “selfish,” and 65 percent think Millennials are ‘entitled.’” The Millennial generation – those born between 1980 and 1995, have been characterized as self-absorbed, narcissistic...

And we know we should; we want to want to do it. We might even be aware that it’s something that God wants or is asking us to do. But we’re just not feeling it. We don’t want to. We are reluctant. We are so focused on what we want, on our own needs, comfort, or agenda, that we don’t want to go out of our way or get out of our comfort zo...

July 25, 2023 18:54 - 39 minutes - 55 MBA Reality Check Life Interrupted: Reluctant Prophet, Relentless God July 16, 2023 We all make choices in life – good ones or not-so-good ones, and sooner or later there are consequences. And there’s not much you can do about the consequences, except for choosing how to respond to them. We are in week two of a four-week summer series on the story of Jonah. This week, we’ll discover that Jonah, just like the rest of us, had to face consequences for his choices. And then, in the middle of his...

Whether it’s a lake, river, or even the ocean, many of us enjoy escaping the cares of life to enjoy some splashing in the sun. So it seems like a great time to do a sermon series that includes a whale of a tale! For the next four weeks, we’ll be taking a look at the short, Old Testament book of J...

We’ve been unpacking some of our pre-conceived ideas about what it means to share our belief in Jesus with other people. And we’ve come to understand that there are ways we can do that, that don’t have to be scary or intimidating. This week, as we wrap up, we’ll be taking a look at the power of sharing our stories.

Not the vegetable garden kind of seeds, but the kind of seeds that help produce faith and life-change in the lives of the people around us. It doesn’t matter if you’re an avid gardener or have the kind of skills that could kill a cactus; if you are a follower of Jesus, you have been entrusted with the most incredible seed and given a mandate to...

It’s like a new category of popularity or famous-ness. There are people who are well-known for being politicians, musicians, artists, authors, and.... influencers.

We’re focusing on the topic of prayer; this week more specifically, on the purpose of prayer. I think a lot of people might say that the purpose of praying is to ask for divine help with something too big for them to handle on their own or to get something they want or need. But that perspective reduces God to some sort of cosmic vending machine. As...
