A New Way to be Clean

The first miraculous sign Jesus performs in the Gospel of John is spectacular at first glance, and even more profound as one looks deeper. As hundreds of gallons of water change to wine, we discover the new way change is designed to come into our lives in the ways that matter most.

Come & See the Good News (GOSPEL)

Jesus is the Good News. In John 1 we see many names and titles attached to Jesus, each one enlarging our understanding of who He is and what He’s done. Come and See Jesus...every angle of Him. Discussion Questions: Which of the names/titles attached to Jesus in John 1 resonated with you most? Is Jesus your lamb? Your teacher? Your king?

Come & See What You’ve Been Searching For

The prologue to John’s Gospel is a masterpiece. When John introduces Jesus as “The Word made flesh” he is making a declaration much larger than one would initially realize. He is changing the way humanity thinks. He is changing the course of history. And he might just be changing your life. Discussion Questions: * How do you currently deal with the fear and anxiety that tries to take over when you think about the certainty of death? How does this awareness affect how you live? * If God is indeed...

Stand Ready in Gospel Shoes

The armor of God makes it clear that believers are called to "stand", even in the midst of spiritual warfare. God makes our standing possible by providing for us the shoes of the gospel of peace–the only foundation that makes us ready for whatever may come our way.

The Breastplate of Righteousness
