James | Week 2: Making Room At The Table

In James 2, we're called to take account on the ways we undermine the mercy of God by judging others based on our own perceptions and bias. As we move deeper into the heart of God, we find mercy for ourselves - and mercy that triumphs over our judgment. (James 2:1-13)

James | Week 1: The Scars Of Wisdom

In the words of E.O. Wilson, "We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom." James calls us to ask God for wisdom - and yet that wisdom often arrives in the form of those who've walked through the same struggles we now face. A healthy Church is a living library of lived, hard-earned wisdom that makes us more like Jesus. (James 1:2-4, 3:13-18)

God At Rest | The Freedom Of Limits

The American definitions of freedom typically center on removing limitations. But in the kingdom of God - there are limitations that bring freedom and life. How might we find freedom and rest in an exhausted, weary world?

God At Rest | Living A Life Of Sabbath Rest

Rest is not the opposite of work - it's the foundation of it. In this message, Alicia Sims shares about the gift, calling, and challenge of rest, and how Jesus' invitation still calls to our exhausted, weary world.

God At Work | Working For The Good

How do we live and love like Jesus at work without being... *that* Christian? In this message, we explore the what it means to be a patient, humble, authentic witness that is good news to our co-workers.

God At Work | Work As Worship

We need a vision for our work life that more resembles the kingdom of God than the American dream. So how we learn to see our work as worship - and how do we know when we're worshiping our work? 

Pentecost | Power To The People

At Pentecost, we celebrate that the Holy Spirit isn't for the professionals, the powerful, the knowledgable, or the spiritual elites. No - the power of God empowers the whole Church for the mission of God right where they are. (Acts 2:1-12)

Revelation Week 6 | The Space Between Grief And Hope

It’s been a week of unimaginable tragedy, and we all feel the ache of a broken world. As we close our Revelation series, we find the prayers that rise from the tension between grief and hope - and together, cry “Come, Lord Jesus.”

Revelation Week 5 | Well... Hell.

You don't make it through the book of Revelation without running into conversations about hell and judgement. Can we reconciled hell with a loving God? Are our views of hell more influenced by cultural caricatures or the Scriptures? And how does this all fit with God's desire to save and restore? This week, we're jumping in.

Revelation Week 4: The Restoration Of All Things

You don’t read Revelation without coming to the inevitable question: how does our story end? What will become of the world when all is said and done? Sunday we’ll look at how we’ve often misunderstood what awaits us in eternity - and why it changes the way we live in the present. (Revelation 21:1-5)
