Anchors | God Is Always Present And At Work

In our "Anchors" series, we're going through 7 truths (via Gravity Leadership) about God that we can hold onto - no matter what storms we face. This week? God is always present and at work. (Genesis 28:10-17) 

Philippians 4 | Anxiety And The Peace Of God

We live in anxious times. In Philippians 4, Paul calls us to persistent prayer, a relentless focus on the good, and the present reality of God's peace that protects us in our anxiety. (Philippians 4:4-9)

Philippians 3 | Losing My Religion (And Finding Jesus)

Paul's religious credentials were impeccable. Yet compared to what he found in Jesus, they were nothing. We're all prone to trust in our past accomplishments and stay on our moral high horses, but like Paul, when we meet Jesus, everything becomes clear. (Philippians 3:1-14)

Philippians 2 | Power In Humility

Real community takes us out of ourselves and into the world of others, where we learn how to love like Jesus. And that starts with seeing how *He* left what He knew - to enter *our* world in humility, giving us both the means and model of the love we long to give and receive. (Philippians 2:1-11)

Philippians 1 | Suffering And Hope

For the last 18 months, the world has been inescapably confronted by suffering and death. As we begin our journey in Philippians, we enter into the questions about how we understand the hardships we face through the lens of our faith in Jesus - and how we might have a hope stronger than death. (Philippians 1)

Shared | A Shared And Shareable Faith

The early Church lived with the expectation that their lives together should be so compelling different that people can't help but want to join them. Could it be the same for us? (1 Peter 2:9-12)

Shared | Disruption, Decisions, And Disciples

If we're hope to share our faith, we'd better know what exactly we're inviting them into, right? So we're asking a simple, yet important question: what does it mean to become a Christian... according to Jesus? (Mark 1:14-20)

Shared | What Makes The "Good News" So Good?

The word "evangelism" is bound to send a lot of us running. But we all naturally talk about the things that move us - what is beautiful, meaningful, powerful, and true. Could it be that we've forgotten what makes the "good news" so good? (1 Corinthians 15:1-6)

How To Love | Refugees And The Church

Justin is joined by Pastor Justin Biragane, a Congolese Pastor and refugee who has been in the United States for 10 years. He shares about the plight of refugees in Lexington, their struggles and their gratitude, and how we as a Church can partner with his community to see "In Lexington as it is in heaven." 

How To Love | Poverty And The Church

This week, Justin is joined by Melissa Tibbs and Lindsay Anderson, two women on the front lines of poverty and homelessness in central Kentucky. Together, they explore the landscape of poverty in the midst of the pandemic, the most prominent needs, and the ways we are followers of Jesus can be a tangible help in the midst of the struggle.
