Summer of Ascent | Week 11
July 30, 2023 10:00 - 29 minutes - 27.3 MBAs the pilgrimage and journey come to a close, we are sent back into the world to bless and praise God. But what does it mean to bless? And what does it look like to return home?
Summer of Ascent | Week 5
June 18, 2023 10:00 - 32 minutes - 29.7 MBThe pilgrimage is not just a grind, but a journey of joy. On the journey, we are invited to choose the path of happiness, reform our systems to embrace happiness, and center our world on God. And in doing so, we are invited to enter into God’s road to happiness.
Summer of Ascent | Week 4
June 11, 2023 10:00 - 32 minutes - 29.7 MBPsalm 127 breaks into our regularly scheduled programming to do something new. It functions as a transition point on the pilgrimage home, moving us from navigating our context to embracing God’s joy in our everyday, including our work.
Summer of Ascent | Week 3
June 04, 2023 10:00 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MBIn Psalm 122, the pilgrimage and our home come into view, and we begin to worship. Worship in the pilgrimage is a communal experience. We come to share the most beautiful truth we have ever experienced. We gather to expect God to work in only the ways God can. We come to be sent out by God’s power on mission. But all of this begins with worshiping God in glad and joyful being as his people.
Summer of Ascent | Week 2
May 28, 2023 10:00 - 31 minutes - 29.2 MBAs our pilgrimage begins, we start by observing the landscape. As we look around, we can see the dangers and temptations of the hills. But the good news is that we have help. We have overwhelming help from the God of the cosmos, who promises to keep watch over us through all of life for forever.
Summer of Ascent | Week 1
May 21, 2023 10:00 - 38 minutes - 35.3 MBIn order to start the journey home, we need to first understand where we are. We must understand the world's pains and hard things and cry out to God. And as we do so, we are reminded of the God who leads us from the places of pain and sorrow to our true home.
Gospel Habits | Week 5
May 14, 2023 10:00 - 31 minutes - 29 MBIn our final week in James, we discuss prayer's power. How prayer helps us to orient our eyes not on the things of the world, but rather to trust God and his work in all of life. It helps us to lift our eyes up to see what God is doing in the world, and to trust him with our plans and our pains.
Gospel Habits | Week 4
May 07, 2023 10:00 - 38 minutes - 35.3 MBJames notes that words have incredible power, the tongue has massive potential, and we need practices to help us embrace wisdom. Because the tongue is difficult to tame, but bears consequences on the direction of our lives. It is an outpouring of the lives we have built. That is why we need the presence of God to help us tame the tongue.
Gospel Habits | Week 3
April 30, 2023 10:00 - 52 minutes - 47.8 MBOur rhythms are not just for ourselves or our own betterment but also affect those around us. How do we think about our neighbors and those who are "other" than us when it comes to habits? James takes this question and challenges our perspective and questions what we should be boasting about as we follow Jesus.
Gospel Habits | Week 2
April 23, 2023 10:00 - 50 minutes - 45.9 MBWhen it comes to building new rhythms, it starts with asking what we want. What are the small things that will transform us? James shows us the rhythms that God invites us into, and what that means for our heads, hearts, and hands.
Gospel Habits | Week 1
April 16, 2023 10:00 - 41 minutes - 37.9 MBOver the next few weeks, we want to talk about building habits that help us follow Jesus. But what does building a rhythm or a rule of life mean for us? Why should we do it? As followers of Jesus, we build a rule of life, filled with disciplines and practices, to become more like our King.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 6
April 02, 2023 10:00 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MBOur new life is here and not yet. There is a war between the flesh and the Spirit and wages inside of us. But we trust in Jesus to overcome even in our frailty.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 5
March 26, 2023 10:00 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MBWhen we receive Jesus by faith, our lives change. Our sins die with him and we are given new life with him. Jesus totally transforms our lives through his life, death, and resurrection.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 4
March 19, 2023 10:00 - 49 minutes - 45.3 MBPeace in our world is tenuous at best, typically defined as a cessation of hostility. It is often an insecure, temporary, or conditional practice. But peace with God is different. It is holistic peace, restoring our world. It is relational, restoring our relationship with God. God’s peace is far different from any other peace in the world. It is secure, active, and unconditionally extended to all of us. Peace is anchored in the love of God which is extended to all of us.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 3
March 12, 2023 10:00 - 48 minutes - 44.1 MBWhat is it that you boast in? We all boast about something, looking to find our worth and approval. But the Gospel invites us to embrace the gift of grace. That we are not able to save ourselves, but rather we are saved by faith. Faith is the only way to receive the righteousness of God.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 2
March 05, 2023 10:00 - 45 minutes - 41.4 MBWe are in need of an internal transformation, not merely an external modification. We are all in need of saving from our sins. The gospel is not good news about how God makes bad people good, but rather good news about how God makes dead people alive.
Nothing Can Separate | Week 1
February 26, 2023 10:00 - 46 minutes - 42.2 MBIn Romans 8, Paul proclaims that "nothing can separate us from the love of God." Yet, we often feel like the world is trying to separate us from God. See, all of us are under a power, the power of sin. We need the power of the gospel to save us from the power of sin. We need the power of the Holy Spirit-empowered message of grace.
Ash Wednesday
February 22, 2023 10:00 - 19 minutes - 18 MBAs we begin our journey through Romans and through Lent, we start by remembering the truth that we are mortal. That from dust we came, and to dust, we shall return. But while that is true, we also remember that while we are more sinful than we ever dared believe, we are more loved and rescued by Jesus Christ than we ever dared hope.
