Did you say anything you regret this week? How about the last five minutes? We’re stuck here in the meantime and we’re all getting a little bit tired, a little bit cranky, a little bit DONE. James, the brother of Jesus, had some pretty strong things to say about the power of our words and how to use them. So how do we handle our words and our thoughts while we’re waiting. Scripture Reference: James 3:2-12
Philippians 4:10-13 We’re all spending a lot of time and energy trying to convince the world, and ourselves, of all the things we can do. And then when it becomes glaringly obvious to us, the world, or both, that we can’t - we disintegrate, we hide, we let our discontentment drive us in all sorts of sideways and self-destructive directions…but what if Jesus had a better way?
Scripture Reference: Acts 1:1-8 We’re impatient people. What do we do when we feel stuck in the waiting? What do we do in the meantime? Do we have to have all the answers to be obedient?
It's Easter Jam for the whole fam! Join us for this fun, family-friendly interactive Easter Experience.
Join us for this special worship experience, including communion. We'll receive communion together during the service, but in order to be prepared, please have bread or crackers along with juice, water, or whatever you have in your home with you at the start of the service. We can't celebrate and embrace the fullness of Easter without spending time together at the cross, remembering how much God gave up for you and me.
Scripture References: John 3:1-15 and 19:39-42 Is God doing something in the "darkness" we currently find ourselves in? A look at a special encounter Jesus had holds some answers.
John 20:30-31 and 4:43-53 There once was a time when no one believed in Jesus... and then they met him, and they saw him do things no one had ever done, and they had a reason to believe. What if God wants to give you a reason to believe?
Romans 12:1-2, 2 Corinthians 10:1-5 This week we're looking at the battleground of our minds and what God says about how to protect them.
Mark 14:1-11 We guard our homes from break-ins, as we should, but are we inadvertently guarding our homes from Jesus? What if we took down the guard and asked Jesus to break-in and change it all? Are we ready to go "all in"?
Luke 19:1-10 If Jesus hung out at your house for just one day, what might happen? Would you feel uncomfortable having him there? Would you invite all of your friends? How would your life be different because Jesus came and stood in the middle of it?
Hebrews 12:1-3 We all want to run a good race. What would you say if I told you the key to going fast involves learning the proper use of brakes? Do yours need a tune-up?
John 1:35-42 What if the one thing that could change everything for somebody is something you could do? What if it's a lot simpler that we've been making it?
Isaiah 43:1-7 and Galatians 4:4-7 We all want a neighborhood. We want to be part of something, somewhere, and have someone know our name. God has a plan for that and, at its best, it's spelled C-H-U-R-C-H.
Ephesians 4:22-32 Jesus is looking for some people who are willing to go first - first to listen, first to forgive, first to do something for someone else. We need some adults. Do you know any?

Matthew 16:21-28 Jesus set a clear trajectory for himself and for everyone who would come after him - it's just not exactly what we may have planned for ourselves. How are we charting our course? Do we know where we're heading? Are we asking the right set of questions?
Matthew 4:1-11 Most of life isn't lived on the mountain top. The truth is that we will be tested. Do we know how to respond?

Matthew 7:3-5 Grace is the unsettling solution to just about everything. This Christmas, we could be part of the unsettling solution and, it could be amazing.
Matthew 20:1-16 Grace is better than fair.
John 1:14 & Luke 23:32-43 There is an unsettling solution for just about everything, and we can sum it up in one word. Grace. It’s the undeserved, unearned, unearnable favor that Jesus came to offer us. So why wouldn’t we want Christianity to be true? And where should you start if it’s a word that was never part of the equation for you?
