The Two-Way Gospel

Therapist Bill Bedell joins the conversation as we wrap up our study of the Gospel of Mark with a look at the inward and outward working of the gospel.

Christus Obscurus 03/31/24

What do we do when Jesus is hard to see? In this week's Easter message, we look at the story in Luke where Jesus appears to two disciples grappling with his death and rumors of resurrection.

Open Palm Suffering 03/24/24

This week we look at Mark's account of Palm Sunday and what even a donkey can tell us about Jesus.    

A Little Fatih 03/17/24

How do you know if you have enough faith? What if you're sure you don't? This week we look at the story of Jesus interacting with a father who is desperate for a miracle but also wrestling with doubt.

The Jesus Question 03/10/23

This week we look at the pivotal moment in the book of Mark where Peter recognizes that Jesus is the Christ. What does it mean for us today to declare the same thing?

Crumbs 03/03/23

In our continuing study of Mark, we look at Jesus' interaction with the Syrophoenecian woman and consider what to do when the Jesus we find in Scripture says something we find difficult.    

Bread Blindness 02/25/23

The feeding of the five thousand is more than a miracle story. It highlights the importance of rest and the ways in which Jesus provides it for us, even when circumstances are not restful.

The Jesus We See 02/18/24

Is it possible to feel like we know Jesus and misread him entirely? This week we look at Jesus' visit to his hometown in Mark 6 and consider how his closest community was blind to his true nature.

Where the Wild Things Were 02/04/24

As we continue our study in the book of Mark, this message looks at the great hope we have for our fiercest battles, as seen in Jesus’ mercy for a man experiencing unbearable suffering.

Commitment 02/11/24

As his last words on the cross Jesus “committed his spirit” to the Father. What does it mean to give something to God when we are already losing it?

Sacred Storms 01/28/24

How does God speak to us through the storms of life? This week, we continue our study of the book of Mark with a look at Mark 4:35-41 when Jesus calms the storm. Speaker: Dave Wittenberg

Light Show 01/21/24

Jesus claimed to be the light of the world. So what do we make of all the darkness that still exists out there? This week we look at the parable of the lamp on the stand in the fourth chapter of Mark.

More Than Dirt 01/14/24

In this week's message, we look at the parable of the sower in Mark 4. It is sometimes referred to as the parable of the four soils. But there is much more to it than dirt that can lead us to a greater wonder of God and how his kingdom operates.

Division Problem 01/07/24

As we begin the New Year, this week’s message examines Jesus’ thoughts on division in Mark 3 and what they mean for his church in these contentious times.

A Good Home For Good News 12/17/23

In our study of the book of Mark, we look at the surprisingly good news we can find in the analogies Jesus used about cloth and wineskins.

Walk Through Town 12/10/23

Two miracles in one day in Mark chapter 5 remind us that reaching out is enough, that following is enough, and that God’s word has power over death.

A Scandal of Plates 12/03/23

This week we continue our study in the book of Mark with a look at the calling of Levi in Mark 2:13-17. What does it look like for Jesus to release us from our boxes of shame and self-rigtheousness?

Rabbits, Rituals, and Rope Burns 11/26/23

Gratitude can become a heavy "should" that we find difficult to generate. This week's message looks at the unburdening fact that Jesus offered thanks and how that changes the whole concept of gratitude for us.

Will 11/19/23

What does it mean for us when the Lord becomes indignant? Could it be a positive? In our continuing study in the book of Mark, we revisit Jesus' healing of the leper in chapter 1.

Snapshots 11/13/23

In this week's message Meg Henderson teaches about how our life stories might interfere with our capacity to live out of being loved by God, and a corresponding invitation in the book of Mark. 

The Surprising Jesus 11/05/23

In this week's sermon we discover how Jesus is at work in the small, simple parts of our lives--he cares about our deepest needs and worries.

Quiet Authority

Quiet Authority 10/29/23

What comes to mind when you think of authority? Most people have mixed reactions to the word, given all the ways it has been abused. Yet the absence of authority brings its own problems. In our continuing study of the book of Mark, we look at the nature of Jesus' authority and the difference it makes in our lives when we're able to trust it.

All Y'all 07/23/23

In this week's segment of our examination of New Day's Core Values we focus on the concept of every Christian being a minister. In our contemporary life, what does it mean for each one of us to be a priest in God's kingdom?

Inside Out 07/15/23

In our continuing series on New Day's core values, this week we look at what it means to say that the church is a mission outpost. How does it alter our approach to church life if we see church in this different light?

Truth Well Told 07/09/23

Recalculating 06/18/23

Love and the Broken Church 06/11/23

We are continuing our exploration of our vision statement and what it means to "Live out of being loved by God."
