What words come to mind when you are asked to describe yourself? How we see ourselves really matters. Our mind is powerful and what we think about ourselves and about God determines so much of how we walk this life--the decisions we make and the way we interact with others. We can turn to God for the truth of our identity because He is the one who knows us better than we know ourselves. He knows us this well because He is the one who created us and knew us before time began. Hosted by Summer Sho...

What we think of when we think of God is one of the most important things about us.

Sometimes we struggle with coming to God in prayer because we are afraid of God’s reaction. In this episode, we will ...

Being in community doesn’t just benefit us--it has an eternal impact in the Kingdom of God! You play a role in the work that God is doing in the world. We have a natural tendency to think of our roles in the world as individual ones. We navigate our daily lives relatively independently of one another. We consult our individual calendars to make plans and don’t think much about what the neighbors are up to unless their dog is barking non-stop early on a Saturday morning! ;-) While it’s a totally ...

Sometimes we find ourselves in social situations that make our insecurity come out in full force. Especially now after we’ve been so isolated for the last year, it can be hard to navigate social situations again. The problem with insecurity is that it can feel like a prison with no way out–it can make us feel hopeless. When we are feeling insecure, our focus turns inward and we can only see our weaknesses, our doubts, our fears and other’s opinions. We forget the ways that we are gifted and uniq...
