Patterns Week 1: We Are Being Formed

It's been said, "We are what we repeatedly do." This is certainly true in our spiritual lives, where our patterns and habits shape us to be who we are - for better or worse. So how are we formed to be like Jesus? (Romans 12:1-2) 

Faith In Exile Week 4: Faith In The Fire

We are safer in the fire with God than in places of comfort with him. (Daniel 3)

Faith In Exile Week 3: Putting Down Roots

What was God's strategy for his people in exile? Escape? Fight? No - on the contrary, they were to put down roots and seek God's peace not only for themselves... but for their enemies. The same is true for us. (Jeremiah 29:4-14)

Faith In Exile Week 2: A Creative Minority

The life of Daniel is an example of faithfulness in the midst of the pressures to blend into our world, losing what makes us distinctively Christian. How do we walk forward without compromise, yet remain loving to our neighbors who are different? (Daniel 1:1-21)

Faith In Exile Week 1: Lament & Hope

Exile is a place where you feel lost and disjointed from where you thought you should be. This week, we look at the example of Jeremiah, whose honesty and hope in prayer set an example of faithful lament and hopeful resilience. (Jeremiah 1:4-10, Lamentations 3:19-26)

A Conversation On Faith & Suicide

An interview from our service on September 16th, 2018 with Dr. Melinda Moore of Eastern Kentucky University, the co-chairwoman of the Faith Communities Task Force for the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention.

Gather Week 4: Weak And Strong

Church is a place where you can be weak - loved through through the mess and struggles of life. But it's also a place where you can grow strong, spurred on by community to live into our calling in Christ. (Romans 15:1-7)

Gather Week 3: Family On Mission

Family is better caught that taught. Today, we interview Marcus Patrick, Chloe Martin, Michael Overstreet, and Maggie Middleton about Woodhill Community Center, Urban Impact, and Amachi Mentoring. Their example of family on mission is a beautiful picture of the kingdom. 

Gather Week 2: Tear Down The Walls

The deeper we get into community, the more we will find people who aren't like us. And that's good! Because Jesus is building a Church by breaking down the walls that existed between us. 

Gather Week 1: From Me To We

Jesus his disciples would be known by love. That's why community is so central to our faith: it's the environment in which we learn how to love like Jesus. (John 13:34-35)
