Grace Is Greater - Week 2
Grace is the one thing we desperately want for ourselves, and the one thing that we often struggle to give others. You can't talk about grace without talking about forgiveness. When Jesus is asked "how many times do I have to forgive?" he tells a story to make a simple point: stop counting. Grace is greater than what's been done to us, and the grace we've received is the grace we're called to give.
About this series: Hebrews 12:15 says, "Make sure no one misses out on the grace of God." This four week series aims to make sure no one misses out on the amazing grace that God extends to his children. It's a grace that is greater than what anything you've done (both the bad and the good), anything that's been done to you, and anything you're going through. Discover afresh the amazing grace of God.

Grace Is Greater - Week 1
Grace is more than a one-time second chance. Grace is endless second chances given by a savior who doesn't aim to condemn us but to set us a free. You do not have to be defined by your secrets, your shame, or your mistakes. Just as one woman discovered - Jesus is a God full of grace and truth.

A Word on Disgrace - Jenn Gash

Mar 9, 2025
24 min
Jesus calls us to follow him INTO and OUT OF. Into His kingdom, but out of the ways of the world. When we go against the grain of society, it can bring conflict, criticism, or even disgrace. But "outside the camp" is right where we find Jesus. This message from Hebrews 13 invites us to wrestle with what it means to bear disgrace for the sake of the gospel.

When things seem too far gone and beyond redemption, what is possible? That's the question God asks a prophet Ezekiel in a valley of dry bones.

How To Trust In God - Week 6
Seriousness is not a fruit of the Spirit, but joyfulness is. Part of trusting in God means experiencing His joy and learning to celebrate as His people. As we conclude the story of Nehemiah, we see a celebration for the ages at the dedication of Jerusalem's walls.
About this series: Like a loving father with his children, God wants us to trust Him. But it's hard to trust God when our circumstances feel uncertain, when the challenges seem overwhelming, and when we're not sure what to do. In this series, we'll learn from the story of Nehemiah, a leader who had to trust God in challenging times.
