Resolve Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

God makes you a promise. You get excited. Then... KABOOM! Life happens and his promise seems a distant memory because life has taken you down a slippery slope of misery and difficulty? Ever feel like that? What happened to your faith? How did you get out of it? Are you still stuck in it? The Bible says that God never stops working even though you feel he has taken a coffee break with respect to moving your life forward. He is on the move if we have eyes of faith and wait well! In part 3 of RESOL...

Resolve Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Timing is everything. When you are in pain or in the cloud of unknowing, you want things to move faster so that you can experience peace and clarity sooner. When the "stars are aligning" in your favor you don't want the good times to end. Above all our wishing and hoping in the ups and downs of life is the Providence and goodness of God. He is there and working out His plan outside of what is happening to us - good or bad. In fact, God is on the move right now in your life! David was a person wh...

A Man in Uniform with Jason Park – Audio Only

A man's uniform is a physical representation of his identity. It symbolize’s his appointed position, helps regulate his level of accountability, and accelerates his authority. The same can be said about a man of God. By way of our appointment, we have a designated uniform that represents our identity. Our response to being chosen and appointed is to put on our uniform and take a stand. All of God's weapons are at our disposal, but all is worthless unless we put His uniform.

Not Of It Part 5 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Relationships are a risk. You commit to someone without knowing if they will stay committed to you. You invest in the relationship. You make promises. You sacrifice for the people you love. But then a distance starts to creep in. Emotionally there's a change. The connection is strained. Something has come between. We all know what it looks like or perhaps have experienced it ourselves. It looks like an affair or adultery or cheating on someone else. In your relationship with God, God wants your ...

“No Room for Hate” with Jason Park – Audio Only

There was a time when we would meet someone, find something in common, and the conversation would ensue. Lately if feels like that dynamic has shifted into our society fixated on finding what we don’t have in common and live in that space. Sadly it feels as of late that message has been amplified beyond our control. Now days having an opinion can be terrifying for some to share and that can be where hate starts to enter one’s heart. In those moments we feel like we are taking a position in favor...

Not Of It Part 4 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Ever had a deal come across your life that was hard to refuse? Whatever comes into our minds, no deal in human history was ever as big as the one Jesus rejected. Imagine being offered the entirety of the world's wealth, pleasures, and notoriety. All earthly desires? Done. All earthly wealth? Yours. All earthly significance and fame? Golden. Sounds amazing but what were the terms of the deal? How did he respond? What did he say? While it is a different time and different culture, the same deal is...

Not Of It Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Not being "of the world," as Jesus describes every man of God, means we have a different source, a different means of influence, and a different mindset living "in the world." When Jesus briefed the disciples about their mission on earth he said it has to come with a mindset: "I am sending you out like sheep among wolves." Jesus didn't provide false hope or codependent comfort. He gave it to them straight. He did not want them to be ignorant. He needed them to think right about themselves and th...

Not Of It Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Jesus told his disciples that they would stand out by not allowing themselves to be controlled by cultural movements or thinking that excluded God or were hostile to God. They would be swimming up stream for sure - especially when it came to choosing Christ above longstanding cultural norms. The many new challenges they never had to consider before were facing them like a large tidal wave. Can you relate? In today's cultural riptide, one wrong word or statement and you get a label or are exclude...

Not Of It Part 1 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Right now everybody's insides are pouring out and onto to the streets, into conversations at the dinner table, and creating a host of negative and separating emotions. We are being forced to stake out positions, plant ourselves, and take a side. It is unavoidable. What also seems to be unavoidable is identifying ourselves with cultural and political positions at the expense of our biblical and spiritual identity. There's a word for that - it's called "hijacking." Issues are being conflated and b...

“I Can’t Breathe Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only”

When tensions are high, the worst place to be is in the middle of them without clarity. This moment culturally has pushed our collective backs to the wall in terms of race relations, making us look at the cultural experience for people of color and form a response consistent with a history of mistreatment. That […]

I Can’t Breathe Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

The current discussion of race and the racial divide in our country is a challenging and emotional one for everybody. It is easy, depending on who your audience is, to get into thick brush and impassable jungle. It is equally concerning and confusing to the world that the most segregated hour in America is still Sunday mornings. In a society that embraces diversity in every facet and dimension of life, somehow it continues to be elusive for the one group of people it should be most true of - Chr...

I Can’t Breathe Part 1 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

What is my response to the unjust, brutal, and untimely death of George Floyd? You have to have one because it is - literally - everywhere and everyone is talking energetically. What kind of energy do you have right now? Not much. Some. Or, a lot. Safe to say all of us are processing, all of us are feeling, and all of us are struggling to respond the right way. Some are denying and this conversation is not for them. But for those choosing to be IN the conversation, we are also struggling with wh...

The Big If Part 4 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Part 4 Sometimes we know right away because it hurts. Sometimes we are used to it and don't realize it until many years or decades later. A dad left us. A friend that betrayed us. A business partner that stole from us. Perhaps people abused us. Spouses that gave up on us. Welcome to a broken humanity. The common denominator of all hurt is that you get sad and mad. Most men stuff their hurts and walk around with it quietly and never talk about it until they have to, are forced to, or the pain is ...

The Big If Part 3 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Part 3 Here is a bottom line truth in life...IMPORTANT relationships get your time and energy. Those that are not ...DON"T. Giving time. Staying connected. Re-arranging priorities. Sacrificing other things to spend time. That communicates one thing - the other person TRULY matters to you. Really smart men discipline themselves toward their most important relationships. And those that don't wish they did. The reason we have to get this straight is because sometimes we SAY relationships are import...

The Big If Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Today we are in Part 2 of our latest men's series called the BIG IF...and to get you ready let me ask you a question. Do you like clear, simple communication? You know the kind that allows for simple responses, simple choices, and simple connection with whoever you are talking with? If your answer is YES then you are gonna love this series. I also think that we can agree that language matters in relationships - but it especially matters in your relationship with God. And on that front it's a goo...

The Corona Chronicles Part 7 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

When the pressure underneath the surface exceeds the pressure on top of the surface you have a good old fashioned explosion. Doesn't matter whether it's pot on your stove or magma simmering for years under earth's crust or a global pandemic that has forced people indoors for 2 months - pressure over time will produce an eruption. You can see the lid beginning to foam and the steam escaping the surface of this COVID 19 pressure cooker which is about to spill over and onto the street. This experie...

The Corona Chronicles Part 6 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

We live in a culture that is changes faster than ever before. Like a fast moving rapid once you are in it - it is hard to get out of it's grip and avoid its pull upon your whole life. But that is exactly what God has done for most of us in the COVID CRISIS. The once foreign and remote idea of a national quarantine is now a daily reality. As we have discovered - in the midst of the craziness GOD is moving in us and all around us. We are resetting our lives. We are rethinking our priorities. We ar...

The Corona Chronicles Part 5 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

To get us ready for today's study let me ask you a question: Have you ever had the windshield of your car fog up? You know ... where you can't see through it and it makes it hard to drive? Not only is it dangerous but it makes you nervous when you can't see what is front of you clearly! Or maybe you have a window in your house that has a lot build up on it and you can't see through it. The bottom line is that we need to get rid of that fog on the windshield and spray some glass cleaner on that w...

The Corona Chronicles Part 4 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Part 4: THE CORONA CHRONICLES Rising above. Think about it. The greatest moments in history involve poor odds, limited resources, desperate times, and snatching victory from almost certain defeat. Movies are made about these moments and when we watch them we feel something inside. Sure, we are pulling for the characters in these stories but we are so invested emotionally because the person we are really pulling for - in reality - is ourselves! We project ourselves into the story. We project our ...

Part 3: THE CORONA CHRONICLES: GOD'S UNPLANNED PLAN How do you react when your plans are interrupted? Normal people get frustrated. We say things like: "Really!" or "You have got to be kidding me right now!" or "Seriously!" Those are the PG rated versions - others are more colorful but they all mean the same thing You had an expectation and - now through no fault of your own - that EXPECTATION is being replaced with a "SITUATION" you must now adjust to and navigate. No human being plans their ow...

PART 2: The Corona Chronicles: God's Unplanned Plan "CRAZY" is a word you are hearing a lot right now - especially on social media - as people strive to make sense of the upside down circumstance they find themselves in. Strangest of all? Just a few short weeks ago everything was normal and now the new normal is ...well...CRAZY! Every major aspect of life for all of us, it seems, has been cancelled. And yet, there is a weird, almost surreal thing happening in the midst of CRAZY. People are comin...

You happen to be joining us for a powerful and challenging series called the RED LETTER WARNINGS and today we're in Part 4. As the title implies, all words in our lives are not equal - especially when you are a follower of Christ. When he issues a warning - the smart man pays attention and responds.

The Red Letter Warnings Part 2 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Well if you are just joining us ... we are in Part 2 of a series called THE RED LETTER WARNINGS. If you own a Bible ...then you probably know the red letters in the second half of it are the words of Jesus. In Part 1 we recognized that some statements that Jesus makes to his disciples are - let's just say - a lot stronger than others. There is an urgency and importance that is noticeable because he knows the truth about something, he loves his guys, and there are big consequences at stake. Today...

The Red Letter Warnings Part 1 with Kenny Luck – Audio Only

Session 1 Most of my day to day conversations with friends and family don't require me to be serious or raise my voice to get someone's attention. But sometimes ... there are some issues... there are some situations ....where I will raise my tone...or I will have to be more seriousness... or ... I will choose our words more intentionally the moment or topic of discussion calls for it. Think about a guide talking to a team about climbing Mt. Everest ... it's a serious challenge that requires a ve...
