In this message Bob Seale shares about bad (and then good) financial advice in a series we're calling "Bad Advice." What financial advice have you been given? Anything worth heeding or would you call it "bad advice?" What does Jesus teach us is good financial advice?

In this message Mackenzie Matthews shares part two of a series called "Bad Advice." Have you ever been advised to "just follow your heart?" We hear this so often, but is this good advice? The Bible tells us to "guard our heart." Listen to this message and hear why.

In this message Justin Matthews shares his thoughts on "Career Advice." Justin shares what career advice a google search gives us and helps us wade through what is bad advice vs. good advice. Is a good career about the money? The schedule? The reputation? Or is it really just about following Jesus?

In this message Mackenzie Matthews shares vision for the year 2020. What does "pursue" mean? What are you pursuing? What does pursuit look like?

This message is the first in our series about pursuing healthy relationships with our emotions. Pastor Brent Cunningham shares in this message about sadness and grief. He breaks down myths about sadness and what the Bible says about them and practical ways to engage them in a healthy way. Resources from this message: Examples of Grieving in the Psalms: “Tears have been my food day and night.” (Ps 42:3) “Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy?” (Ps 43:2) “Has [God’s] unfailing...

In this message Justin Matthews shares about joy in our series all about engaging our emotions in a healthy way. What is the difference between joy and happiness? What ways can you practice or remember joy?

10.1.19 Mackenzie shares in this message about practical teaching, the final message in the Ways We Grow series. What we mean when we say practical teaching is the places and spaces where you hear scripture in a way you understand and in a way that you know what to do with what you hear.

9.24.19 In this message Hillary shares about pivotal circumstances. When it comes to growing in our faith, often the pivotal circumstances that mold us and form us are circumstances we didn’t chose or want. The moments in life that force us to recognize we aren’t in control can end up producing dependance on God. In moments of suffering, we have the choice to turn to God or turn our backs to Him. The beauty of God is that He promises to be there with us no matter which way we choose to turn....

9.17.19 In this message Jeff Lucas shares with us about providential relationships. We've spent a good amount of time talking about the value and importance of good community. Jeff expands on this talking specifically about how relationships can be used to grow our faith. Looking back at your story- who were people who were providential? By that I mean they very clearly seemed to be provided by God in the right time. Maybe it was a friend, a family member, even a stranger who God used to...

9.10.19 In this message Justin shares about personal ministry. That can sound weird. Or even unaccessible. Like only the best of christians have that. But we think personal ministry is very closely tied to service. And all of us are called to that. And when we step into things like missions, or volunteering, becoming a leader at church or even having conversations about faith with your roommates- it grows us. When we step out of our comfort zones, it forces us to depend on God. And he always...

9.3.19 In this message Mackenzie kicks off our series all about ways we grow in our faith. This message highlights private spiritual disciplines. That mind sound super lame to you. But I promise its not. These are the things you do on your own. Prayer, giving, reading your Bible, having a 'quiet time' or 'devotion' time. All things you do to lead yourself, where you need no one else to lead your or join you. So, what might it look like for you to engage this area of your life intentionally?
