Challenge Accepted, Part 2: In & Around // Joel Thomas

James opens his letter to suffering believers with a bold challenge: “Consider it pure joy when you face trials.” In a comfort-obsessed world, that sounds outrageous—but James insists that trials grow perseverance, and perseverance matures us. Instead of seeking escape, we’re called to let the tension shape us and ask God for wisdom, not just relief. Real wisdom leads to peace, humility, and growth, even when life feels unfair. Often, the breakthrough we want around us starts with a change withi...

Challenge Accepted, Part 1: Choosing Hard // Joel Thomas

In a world that constantly pushes us toward comfort, convenience, and the path of least resistance, Jesus invites us into something deeper—something harder. But what if the hard path is actually the best one? What if growth, purpose, and true joy are found not in avoiding struggle, but in embracing it? In this message, we’ll explore what it means to choose hard—to intentionally walk the narrow road of faith, obedience, and sacrifice. Joel Thomas presents a message to help us discover that choosi...

Do Not Disturb, Part 3: Tear Off The Roof // Matt Noblitt

In Do Not Disturb: Part 3, we continue our exploration of spiritual practices that cultivate sustainable life rhythms. In this message, Matt Noblitt delves into the transformative power of pursuing and embodying healthy community—highlighting the deep richness that emerges when we allow ourselves to be supported by others and, in turn, offer ourselves in support of those around us.

Do Not Disturb, Part 2: More of Nothing // Joel Thomas

We often operate under the assumption that more is always better. However, through the practice of fasting, we can begin to retrain our desires, create the necessary margin to appreciate the value of space, and slow down enough to realize that true abundance often comes from placing our trust in God—especially through rest.

Do Not Disturb, Part 1: Practice, Practice, Practice // Matt Noblitt

Drawing from the story of Mary and Martha in Luke 10:38–42, Matt Noblitt explores the vital role of spiritual practices in our lives and demonstrates how they can be meaningfully integrated into even the busiest of schedules, despite the many distractions we face.

Easter 2025 - Thomas // Andy Stanley

The resurrection isn’t just a story—it’s the event that launched a movement and changed everything. If Jesus really rose from the dead, his resurrection has real implications for your life, your faith, and your future. In this Easter message, we talk about this event, why we celebrate it, and why it is the anchor for everything we believe.

Death Of A King // Andy Stanley

Death had the last word because death was the consequence of sin—but not anymore. Jesus, God’s final King, crushed both sin and death and invites us to reign in life through him.

Death To The King // Andy Stanley

As followers of Jesus, we have all wrestled with the same tension at some point: we all want to be saved, but we don't always want to submit. In this message, we talk about the difference between "Jesus the Savior" and "Jesus the King" and why it's the most important thing.

Take Aim // Joel Thomas

You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Without clear vision, you’ll drift into coasting, and coasting always takes you downhill.

Deeper Wider, Part 5: Just Because // Andy Stanley

Before inviting Peter to follow him, Jesus asked Peter to “put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” After a night of fishing with no success and despite his reservations, Peter agreed: “But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” At some point, every Jesus follower will face their own “because you say so” moment. Like Peter, we won’t know what hangs in the balance or our decision. It’s better to find out than miss out. Ready to engage in Deeper/Wider? We in invite you ...

Deeper Wider, Part 4: Obstacles // Joel Thomas

All of us face obstacles to generosity. The common denominator for our obstacles is a desire for more. The apostle Paul taught that true wealth isn't found in accumulation but in contentment. And he shows what it looks like to place our hope not in riches but in God who richly provides.

Deeper Wider, Part 3: The Plan // Andy Stanley

Everyone has a generosity plan, but most people prioritize spending first and leave giving as an afterthought. Jesus flipped the script on that approach with “Seek ye first” living. Embracing this financial template is a tangible expression of submission to our King.

Deeper Wider, Part 2: Defining Terms // Andy Stanley

Jesus redefined generosity—not as spontaneous or sparing, but as intentional and prioritized. His approach ensures we don’t put our trust in riches but in God who richly provides. Choosing to follow his definition of generosity results in greater impact, less worry, more joy, and more peace.

Deeper Wider, Part 1: Everything // Andy Stanley

Biblical generosity is informed and fueled by the acknowledgment that God owns it all. We are simply managers. When we adopt that posture, we view everything we “own” as a potential tool to further the agenda of our King. We will give first and adjust our lifestyle accordingly. Christians who adopt this perspective as the organizing principle for their personal finances find it easier to surrender the other components of their life as well. As Jesus made clear, the number one competitor for our ...

Made for More // Andy Stanley

Just as the apostle Paul wrote to the Jesus followers in Ephesus, you were made for something more than yourself. You are God’s workmanship, and you’ve got something to offer God’s Kingdom.

Sinners Like Me, Part 2: Party Crasher // Andy Stanley

Rahab is one of a few people in the lineage of Jesus that wasn’t Jewish — she was a Canaanite. Not to mention, she was a prostitute. But neither of those things kept her from being used by God in an incredible way.

Sinners Like Me, Part 1: The Back Story // Andy Stanley

The story of Judah and Tamar is probably not one we would have mentioned if we were the ones telling the back story of Jesus’s ancestors. However, many times God’s story highlights the unlikely and the undeserving.
