Answered Prayer
November 05, 2019 17:00 - 43 minutes - 39.8 MBJesus said he will give you what you ask in prayer. Have you ever asked the question, "If it's God's will to answer prayer, why aren't mine answered?" Or, "Why does Jesus say I can do nothing without him?" Maybe you've wondered what Jesus meant when he said, "Abide in me." This message answers those questions and more.

Jacob, Joseph and a Father's Love
October 29, 2019 18:34 - 36 minutes - 33.9 MBJacob did a lot of things wrong, but he did at least two things right: He allowed God to encounter him and he loved Joseph unconditionally.

The Secret Lives of Christians: Prayer
October 24, 2019 17:59 - 38 minutes - 35.3 MBJesus gave us insight into the best way to have a relationship with God: Steal away with him. Keep from seeking people's praise or recognition. Expect a reward from your Father instead -- He's good and wants to reward you!! And about those people who show how generous they are, and parade their prayer lives for everyone to see -- don't be like them. Why? Christians hide the things that make them look the most spiritual and God rewards them with Himself. Matthew 6; 2 Corinthians 3:18; ...
Community's Source
October 14, 2019 15:28 - 28 minutes - 26.4 MBIn this message, Pastor Anton concludes the "Finding Community" series and prepares us for our next series, "The Secret Lives of Christians".
Four Pillars of Community
October 09, 2019 14:32 - 35 minutes - 32.7 MBIf we adapt to God's view of community we will see our relationships change. In this message, Pastor Anton opens Acts 2 to share the four pillars of community, and how they can apply to our lives today.
The Community Clause
September 30, 2019 15:03 - 34 minutes - 31.9 MBIn the middle of a powerful teaching on the blood of Jesus, the book of Hebrews tells us that believers in Jesus must be in community to stay on track. Many people neglect community because they don't feel fed or ministered to, but Hebrews 10 actually tells us to be in community to help others!! Listen as Pastor Anton shares actions we can take that will help keep us and others on track.
How to Pray for Anyone, Anywhere
September 23, 2019 16:34 - 44 minutes - 40.5 MBIn this message, Pastor Anton shares from 2 Kings 5 how God uses people and situations that seem ordinary, unqualified or unusable. In fact, God often uses the most unlikely to do his greatest works! Near the end of the message, he also shares a practical, 5-step model of prayer that can be used anywhere.
God's Motivation (Lost in Translation)
September 16, 2019 13:54 - 34 minutes - 31.7 MBJesus' motivation was never self-promotion, preservation or manipulation. He didn't help and heal in order to better "use" people later. He doesn't do that now. John 3:16 & 17 tell us God's motivation for sending Jesus, and for all Jesus did when He walked the earth. They also tell us what His motivation wasn't. In this message, Pastor Anton shares from Luke 7 where Jesus raises a widow's son to life with no other motivation than compassion, and then dives into the truth of Jesus' suffer...
Faith to Follow
September 10, 2019 21:03 - 42 minutes - 19.4 MBIn this message, Pastor Chris Moerman from Grace Capitol City in Washington, DC insightfully shares the difference between believing in Jesus and following Jesus. The people of Nazareth knew Jesus better than anyone else, but they missed who he really was. When we become too comfortable with the Lord, we too can be offended at what he does instead of risking all to follow him.
