CURRENT SERIES - Big Questions

Do all religions lead to God? Why is God so concerned with rules? What about dinosaurs? Why does God seem so different from the Old Testament to the New Testament? What happens after death?   

Ever feel like these questions are seldom talked about?

We all have real questions about the Bible, life, faith and God - and if there is any place we should be able to deal with our doubts and questions, should it not be the church?

PAST SERIES - At The Cross

We see the cross everywhere in our culture. Attached to architecture. Hanging on rear-view mirrors. Pasted on clothing. Tattooed as body art. 

But what does the cross really mean? More than a public icon, what purpose can it speak into our lives today?

Join us as we explore the image that not only symbolizes the single greatest love expression possible, but how from it we find mercy, wholeness, refuge, vision and purpose.  

TOPICS:

• Mercy  
  
• Wholeness 
  
• Refuge 
  
• Vision & Purpose 

PAST SERIES - Crazy Love

The Bible speaks a lot about love. Love is the foundation of who God is. God revealed Himself to us as Jesus as the greatest expression of love. Even God's greatest commandment calls us to love Him and others wholeheartedly. 

To some degree, we can all wrap our heads around loving God. But are we in love with God? That question probably seems a little harder to answer, right?

Well, that's the question we'll be wrestling with as we dive into our newest teaching series - CRAZY LOVE, based off of Francis Chan's new book. Together we'll discover God's burning desire to see us respond radically to our Creator, that He might create in us the same desire. We'll break through just another set of rules and learn what it means to pursue God passionately by falling in love with deep affection.

PAST SERIES - Living Out Loud

Does your life reflect what's important to God? Ever think about it? 

It's no secret - we live most devoted to the things we view important. These things shape our thoughts. Goals. Even the way we live. 

The Bibles tells us the math is really quite simple - if Jesus is our central focus, our lives will reflect God's heart and will produce a lifestyle that's capable of changing the world. That's right - God wants to use you to help build the Kingdom.  

 

Join us on 1/11/09 as we begin a new teaching series - Living Out Loud. Together we'll answer some important questions to discover the journey God is calling us to.

TOPICS:  

• Identity
• Crazy, Unashamed Love
• Our Loudest Voice 
• Flavor 
• Straight Talk 
• Unimaginable Impact 

PAST SERIES - Untangling Christmas

Culture has a great deal of influence on us, especially during the Christmas season. The push to purchase the latest, most desired products. Endless eye-catching advertisements. Frantically trying to dress the house with a laud statement of Christmas flare. 

On the surface, these examples might seem like normal, healthy Christmas traditions. But is it possible they might be a distraction, too? 

Come find a healthy, God-focused rhythm for the Christmas season before it even starts. 

TOPICS: 

• Untangling Christmas 
• The Naked Christmas Story
