2 days ago
JUDGMENT.😬 Some streams of Christianity try to gloss it over. Others love to project it onto everyone else – except (conveniently) themselves. So what do we do with these promises of judgment – and how do we understand them through the lens of Jesus? (Luke 3:1-6, Malachi 3:1-4)

Sunday Nov 10, 2024
Life will upend you eventually. Some sort of crisis, broken relationship, diagnosis, or unexpected heartache will find us. And while we’ve build a world designed to numb us from feeling it, it is almost always the very space where we meet God in a way we would not otherwise. This week, we’re tackling GRIEF: why the Bible honors it, how Jesus redeems it, and why strangely, it’s where joy takes root.

Anyone who struggles with anxiety knows it can be so much more than just a “feeling.” It often makes its home in our bodies, leaving us feeling isolated from God, from the people around us, and even ourselves. In this message, we’re tackling an emotion that hasn’t always been easy to talk about in the Church. We’re aiming to change that – and find healing and hope along the way.
