As believers, each of us is a part of the body of Christ—one body with many members. We were created on purpose with a purpose, and every breath that we’ve been gifted by God is an opportunity to allow His Kingdom to fully reign in our lives. The reality is that, sometimes, we get comfortable and stop taking steps forward in our faith. But we have a responsibility to do something with the new life we’ve been given. Tune in to find out how we can all make room for other image bearers to experience the beauty of the Church and the amazing King we serve!

Matthew 7:21-23 NIV“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons...

How do we identify false prophets? Jesus clearly warned us to watch out for false prophets, who He described as wolves in sheep’s clothing. We are called to build our lives on Christ and His truth, and the reality is that we can’t define truth based on how something makes us feel. But how do we choose between those people and things that are good influences on our lives spiritually and emotionally and those that are bad influences and can potentially draw us away from Christ? Join us as we look to God’s word to find the answers!

What 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 astonishment we have for His greatness. Our God is an awesome God!

Culture would have us believe that wide is the road that leads to heaven—that there are many paths to God—and narrow is the road that leads to hell. But as difficult as it might be to hear, Jesus teaches us that the opposite is true. He encourages us to follow His way, even though it isn’t popular or anywhere near easy when we try to do it in our own strength. The good news is that when we know the truth, we can choose the kind of life where we’re empowered by His Spirit and able to rest knowing that we never have to experience separation from Him. Because of His goodness, we can live brighter and fuller lives on this side of heaven and bask in the beauty of relationship with Him forever. Join us as we tune out the noise of the world and make space to hear God’s heart for us.

Do you want to be more attractive? Most of us don't hesitate to say, "YES!" But even the people we perceive as beautiful can quickly become unattractive through their actions. So, how do we reflect the beauty of Jesus and do what it takes to be spiritually attractive?
Pastor Dennis Rouse shares a powerful word based on one of the most familiar but difficult to practice teachings of Jesus, The Golden Rule. Join us as we lean into what it means to be the salt and the light—to treat others as we want to be treated.

As believers, our job isn’t to judge and condemn the world; we are called to love and tell others about the One who came, died, and rose again to rescue us from sin and death. That’s Good News worth knowing! So, how do we speak the truth in love without overdoing it? Give this message a watch to find out!

When 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.

What would the world look like if we all treated one another how we want to be treated? While it’s easier said than done when we attempt it in our own ability, we have the grace of a loving Father to help us do what would otherwise be impossible. 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 same way. Tune in as we learn more about the nature of God’s character and our need for His daily grace!
