A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you ...
Awe of God
October 23, 2023 13:37 - 57 minutes - 52.8 MBWhat does it mean to fear God, to work out our salvation with fear and trembling? It’s not what it sounds like. To fear the Lord is to live in absolute awe of His power, His presence, and His promises. Imagine how excited and awestruck you will be one day—to look upon His face and finally see Him! That is the posture from which we want to look to Him and worship Him today. Our God is not wrathful or scary. We don’t tremble because we are afraid. We tremble because of the wonder and ...

Judging Christians
September 17, 2023 14:00 - 56 minutes - 104 MBWhen it comes to judging, it’s in our nature… It’s easy to point out the flaws in others while overlooking the areas we need to address, but when we do, we give the kind of judgment that we’d never want for ourselves. Jesus left us with clear instruction: don’t be blind to your own sins. Take care of your own wrongdoing first, and only then can you see clearly to help those around you—lovingly calling one another out of sin and into Christ-likeness.
The Good Gift of Grace
September 10, 2023 19:00 - 45 minutes - 84.1 MBWhat would the world look like if we all treated one another how we want to be treated?

It’s a divine gift that God extends to us time and time again, regardless of our actions and whether or not we deserve it. In His goodness, He invites us to mirror that kind of boundless love and compassion toward others in the

So, in a world full of uncertainty and trouble, how can we genuinely believe and rest in Jesus’ promise to care for us and meet every single one of our needs?
Breaking the Spirit of Mammon
August 20, 2023 14:00 - 59 minutes - 110 MBWhen Jesus talked about money, He introduced a wildly controversial idea of having an eternal view of wealth and that money has the potential to have lasting, heavenly impact. That’s still strange for many of us today because the world’s view is to build and accumulate money and things that show our success—things that seemingly bring us comfort, security and even power.
Good Eyes
August 13, 2023 14:00 - 1 hour - 117 MBEverything that we have is a gift.

When we see and prioritize the needs of others, we begin to see the fullness of the life we were created for!
The Good Life
August 07, 2023 15:40 - 51 minutes - 46.9 MBWe all have a picture of what “the good life” looks like to us, an idea of the end goal we want to achieve. And even though each of us has many aspirations, we all have an ultimate treasure. It may be ...

For No Reason
July 24, 2023 13:23 - 47 minutes - 43.3 MBThe idea of someone loving you despite all your flaws can be hard to comprehend or fully embrace. And yet, every single day, God extends His love, mercy, and grace toward each of us—not because of anything we’ve done but simply because of who He is.

Lifestyle of Forgiveness
July 09, 2023 17:00 - 46 minutes - 85.4 MBIt’s inevitable… With all of our different backgrounds and points-of-view, we are going to experience offense.

Your Kingdom Come
June 25, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 114 MBAll of us were born with a sinful, selfish nature. Apart from God, we are concerned and consumed by our personal plans and desires.

Our Father
June 18, 2023 14:00 - 57 minutes - 106 MBPrayer is a gift that God gives to His children. We are invited to meet with the One who pours out His love, goodness, mercy, and much more.

Giving in Secret
June 04, 2023 14:00 - 1 hour - 110 MBWe live in a world that’s consumed with pride. When it comes to giving, people often give with a goal of being seen and impressing others. But God has enabled us to live differently! As followers of Jesus, we are empowered to give out of love for others and to bring honor to our Father. Tune in as we take a deeper look into giving in secret, which is the way God desires. Then let’s be intentional about showing the love and generosity of Jesus in our day-to-day lives!
Lead with Love
May 28, 2023 13:00 - 47 minutes - 86.3 MBJesus calls us to love our enemies, to lead with love no matter the circumstances. His life, and death, was the perfect example. He loved, even as He died for His enemies. As believers, we cannot be earthly-minded when responding to those who act against us…We must be KINGDOM-MINDED and we must LEAD OUT OF LOVE!
LIVE!
May 23, 2023 13:07 - 48 minutes - 44.6 MBYou may have heard the phrase, “life is for the living”, but how do we make sure we are truly living for the right things?
