Restoration Church

Restoried:Advent | God Of The Humble

God enters history in obscurity, through the life of a poor, Galilean teenage girl - marked by astounding faith and a song about a Messiah turning our world upside down. (Luke 1:26-56)

Restoried:Advent | God's Restoration Project

In Isaiah 61, we're promised that God's anointed would come and restore a broken and forgotten people... who would they go be restorers in their world. The same is true for us today.

Deeper Look: Isaiah 61: Justice, Restoration, And The Gospel For The Whole Person

This week, we're closing out our time in the Old Testament with a Deeper Look at Isaiah 61 - a passage Jesus made central to his mission. Justin and Kaleb talk through how this passage meant a spiritual AND physical hope for the original hearers, and how these verses teach us about justice, equity, and God's restoration project in our world. Listen in!

 

 

 

Restoried:Advent | Broken Hearts, Open Hearts

In the book of Joel, the people of Judah find themselves decimated by a catastrophe that's left them for dead. The prophet's call is to a heart-level repentance, with a promise for the fullness of God among them by His Spirit (Joel 2:12-13,28-29).

Deeper Look: Daniel 6 | Empires, Allegiance, And Prayer That Sustains Us

In this edition of the Deeper Look Podcast, Kaleb and Justin unpack Daniel 6 - a story with huge implications for our modern moment. When allegiances collide, who will stand as our ultimate authority? And how will prayer sustain us when we follow God into the unknown.

Restoried:Advent | Competing Allegiances

In our first Sunday of Advent, we look to Daniel, King Darius, and the lion's den - a story about a man who must choose between compromising his convictions for the sake of loyalty to leader and empire, or trusting God with the consequences of his obedience. (Daniel 6:1-28)

Restoried: Encounters | Written On Our Hearts (Jeremiah 31:31-34)

'Covenant' is one of the most prominent threads that runs through the Scriptures. In Jeremiah 31, the promise of God turns towards a day when obedience and life would grow from what God does within us. (Jeremiah 31:31-34)

Deeper Look: Jeremiah 31:31-34 | The New Covenant And God's Pursuit Of Our Neighbors

In the latest Deeper Look Podcast, Kaleb and Justin talk about Jeremiah 31, the thread of covenant through the Old Testament, and how God's longing to be reconciled to everyone - even our enemies! - should change the way we see them.

Restoried:Encounters | Seeing God, Seeing Me (Isaiah 6:1-8)

Isaiah saw a vision of God that left him undone - seeing the depth the sin in and around him. But God met him with grace and propel his calling forward. (Isaiah 6:1-8)

Restoried: Encounters | Jonah And God's Love For Our Enemies

Jonah prefers dying in his anger and arrogance over seeing God show grace to his enemies. This short book serves as a mirror for our own hearts in a divisive and polarizing time. (Jonah 1-4)
