Our Father

Prayer 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. In His presence, we are blessed to be able to focus not on what is broken in our lives but on the One who is whole.

Praying in Secret

Prayer is a beautiful invitation from God for us to enter into conversation with Him. Many things can turn our attention and our hearts away from connecting with Him. But in this chaotic world, God’s invitation for us to come to Him isn’t just a privilege; it’s a necessity. Tune in to learn more about the beauty, power, and purpose of prayer in our series, When You Pray.

Giving in Secret

We 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

Jesus 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! Tune in to hear more from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, and dive into what it means to love others well, even when it’s difficult.

LIVE!

You may have heard the phrase, “life is for the living”, but how do we make sure we are truly living for the right things? God doesn’t just want us to live—He wants us to live well and run the race He laid out especially for us! Tune in to this encouraging word to discover how to run your race God’s way.

A Letter to My Sisters

Matthew 5:31-32 NIV “It has been said, ‘Anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her the victim of adultery, and anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.” 

How to Live a Pure Life

THE BIG QUESTION WE WANT TO EXPLORE TODAY:  How can I navigate all of this and still live a pure life before God?

God’s Plan for Sex

Sex was God’s idea and it is GOOD! The world has tried to rewrite the manual for sex but we’re going straight to the Creator to hear what He has to say about it. Tune in as we learn more about the beauty of sex God’s way!

Why God Says No

We’re living in a confused and confusing world when it comes to sex. The good news? God hasn’t left us alone to figure it all out on our own. And the reality is that He doesn’t waver in His stance, and we may not always fully understand His perspective. But we can trust that God’s ways are better and, ultimately, for our good. In the truth of His Word, there is hope and freedom! Tune in to learn more.

Sermon on the Mount: The Law

Tune in to learn some of the greatest ways we can express our gratitude to God through a lifestyle of true worship!

Persecuted for Righteousness’ Sake

Following Jesus is the best decision we could ever make, but it comes with a cost. When we live like Him, we will face persecution from our family, friends, and the rest of the world. Tune in to learn why we’re blessed even amid persecution and find encouragement to continue being the salt and light of the world!

Peacemakers

We live in a world that is full of chaos and conflict, but Jesus is calling us to follow His lead and be peacemakers rather than peacekeepers. Pursuing peace is not easy, but with God’s help, it’s always possible! Tune in as we dive deeper into the Beatitudes and learn what it practically looks like to live out a life of peace.

Blessed Are the Pure in Heart

One of the most beautiful promises that God has given us is that we will see Him when we are pure in heart. While that is an amazing promise, it can also feel intimidating because, on our own, our hearts are far from pure. So, how do we receive this beautiful promise? Tune in to find out!

Blessed Are the Merciful

God’s mercies are new every morning! Through Jesus, we have been forgiven of our sins forever, and we have the blessed opportunity to follow His example. God is love, and mercy is loving in spite of sin. He has made a way for us to forgive others in the same way that He has for us. Tune in to learn more about how to live a life of mercy!

Hunger & Thirst

We all have a deep desire in our souls to feel fulfilled in life, and Jesus told us that we will experience His blessing when we seek righteousness above all else. But we live in a world that craves many things, where people look for happiness in power, love, and wealth, to name a few. So, where does a hunger and thirst for righteousness lead us? Tune in to learn how Jesus fills us completely and leaves us fully alive!

Power That Serves

We live in a world that glorifies using power to our own advantage. It sends the message that we have achieved success when we can use our position to be served. But the kingdom of God is not like that. Jesus redefined greatness when He said, “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” So, what is meekness and what does it produce in us? Tune in to find out!

Poor in Spirit

When Jesus preached the Sermon on the Mount, He began by sharing eight ways that we are blessed. The world paints a picture of a way of life that seems right to them, but what they believe it means to be blessed is the complete opposite of what Jesus shared. Tune in as we begin to take a deeper look at the Beatitudes and what’s at the heart of “blessed are the poor in spirit”!

The Power of the Church

The Church was God’s idea! He always intended for us to be in a community where we can become more like Jesus and experience care and encouragement. The Church isn’t simply a beautiful invitation to true connection; it’s a vital part of God’s amazing plan for our lives! Tune in to learn more.

Anchored in Truth

A ship makes it through a storm by dropping anchor, which makes it immovable in the wind and waves.

Stop Limping and RUN

We all have the same purpose: glorify God and enjoy Him forever. To walk that out, each of us has been given a uniquely specific blend of gifts, talents and abilities to use wherever God leads us. While our purpose remains the same, our calling can change throughout the various seasons of our lives. God wants us to trust Him, allowing Him to lead us on the journey He mapped long ago. But how do we begin to run in God’s perfect plan for our lives? Learn more in part two of True North...

Compassion

Before Jesus left the earth, He set an expectation for His followers to live according to His example. When we represent Christ well, we give others the opportunity to experience His true nature and draw closer to Him. Compassion is one of the characteristics that attracts people to God. It is looking beyond our own needs to see the needs of others, learning to value them above ourselves. Let’s begin to engage the world with hearts of compassion and demonstrate the love of the Fathe...

It is Mine

Engaging Culture

It’s not always easy to build relationships with people whose lifestyles aren’t like ours. How do we love our neighbors when all we see are differences? Jesus engaged the culture of His day with love, grace and the truth of the gospel. He invites us to do the same—to live in a way that glorifies God and open our lives to connect with others so we may inspire them to want to know Jesus for themselves. We’re breaking down what that looks like in part four of our Open Doors series! ...

God is in the Waiting

The Faithful Father

Did you know God created you just so He could love you? You are fully accepted as you are! He is for you and is faithful to welcome you into His arms no matter what. The Father doesn’t need or require anything from you… Rather than striving and trying to be lovable, He invites you to live from the place of already BEING loved!

A Lost Brother

A Prodigal Son

One of the many beautiful attributes of God is His ability to love unconditionally. There is no guilt-trip, no condemnation, no prerequisite to be accepted. And if you’re feeling lost or like you’ve disappointed Him, know that His arms are always open to welcome you home. Nothing compares to your heavenly Father’s love for you, and all He desires is that you rest in His warm embrace.

Walking in Freedom

Jesus came not only to set us free but to help us actually walk in freedom! But stepping into the next level of life with God requires loosening your grip on old ways of thinking and habits that are keeping you stuck. For every one of the enemy’s lies you’ve believed, God has an incredible truth to replace it. And He never calls us to give up something unless He has something better. What do you need to let go of so that you can embrace the new He has for you?

A Mind Made New

The enemy’s oldest trick is to get us to believe lies about who God is, who we are, and more. But God has given us spiritual weapons to tear down the lies, those strongholds that keep us stuck in old mindsets and from fully embracing what He has for us. He is calling us to a place of friendship, freedom, and peace. It’s available to all of us, but our minds have to be renewed. No matter where you are, you have a good Father in heaven who is ready to give you His truth. Will you rece...

Confronting Compromise

“… one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead…” (Philippians 3:13 NASB) Do you know what it cost our Savior not just to give you eternal life but abundant life? Jesus came to set you free so that you would walk in complete victory! But to break unhealthy cycles and move forward, we have to forget the past and confront areas where we have compromised. It’s time to take back everything that has been stolen and grab hold of the full life He died...

At the Well Again

The Generous God

There’s something about love that produces generosity. Think about it this way: God so loved the world that He GAVE… When we give, we are called to do so out of the overflow of all that He, the One who breathed life into our lungs, has given to us. When we love others, we’re generous with our time, our affection and, yes, our money—which is the number one competitor against God in our lives. To be people free from the trap of greed, we have to allow the truth of His extravagant gene...

Why I Tithe

We have a generous God! In giving us His son, Jesus, He gave us His BEST. When we come face-to-face with the selfless love of God and embrace it, we take on His nature and become givers, too. Because when we truly grasp just how much God cherishes us and then open ourselves up to Him, we will want to give as an expression of our adoration. In Extravagant part three, we’re making room for God to transform our hearts, minds and our finances so we can offer Him a worthy response to the...
