" It is finished ." The last words of Jesus, as recorded by John, before he bowed his head and surrendered his spirit in death, are as famous as they are simple.

The crucifixion of Jesus is among the most well-known, and perhaps least-understood, images in our world. While the significance of the cross as a display of God's love for us is beautiful, the physical reality of what Jesus endured for us is brutal and barbaric.

Perhaps nothing causes more arguments and concern today than the use and misuse of authority. But is authority bad? If we are to know the proper use of authority, we have to learn the truth about authority.

What is truth? This simple question comes not from a postmodern philosopher or enlightenment thinker, but from Pontius Pilate as he questions Jesus. These days, there are many people who doubt whether truth can actually be known, or whether objective truth exists. This week we learn that not only does Truth exist - his name is Jesus.

Scripture is not only a spiritual story or a historical account. It is the Story of God, embedded in human history and inspired by the Spirit. All this means that we can peer into the particulars of the story and find reflections of ourselves. In John 18, we find one such story: the denial of Peter. How does Peter's three-fold denial apply to our lives? Why and how do we tend to deny Jesus today? Explore the Story with us as we discover what it means to experience life with Jesus.

From politics to popular culture, the message is clear: victory cannot be secured via surrender. But what happens when this "never surrender" attitude invades our spiritual life?

When Jesus prays before his arrest, what does he pray for? In this last part of Jesus' High Priestly Prayer, we see Jesus pray for us to be unified in him. Sometimes when we don't experience this unity, we can begin to wonder whether we're really saved. We begin to look at our imperfect lives and feel a sense of imposter syndrome. But being imperfect doesn't make you an imposter. It just makes you able to receive the gospel. Resurrection Gig Harbor is a church plant in Gig Harbor, WA, that is pa...

When Jesus prays before his arrest, what does he pray for? In this second part of Jesus' High Priestly Prayer, we see Jesus pray for us to remain in him. Jesus says that we are in the world, as he has been in the world, but we are not of the world, just as he is not of the world. That means we can neither remove ourselves from the world, nor give ourselves over to it. The result? The Christian life is hard. But it's worth it.

Jesus spoke in many obscure sayings and figures of speech - "Wash one another's feet." "I am going to my Father's house to prepare a place for you." "I am the Vine, my Father is the Gardener." "When a woman is giving birth she has sorrow, but when the baby is born she forgets her anguish for joy that a human being has been born." But at the end of John 16, Jesus speaks plainly. "In this world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world." Resurrection Gig Harbor is a chur...

Jesus' Farewell Discourse in John 13-16 is a bit of a rollercoaster, filled with many of Jesus' most famous statements. It covers both the good ("I am the Vine, you are the branches..."; "I will send you another Helper..."), and the bad ("if the world hates you, know that it hated me first"). Why is Jesus saying all of these things? In John 16:1, Jesus tells us that he has said "all these things so that you will not fall away?" What does does it mean to fall away? Why is it such a threat for dis...

Usually, when Christians talk about "abiding in Jesus," they are referring to individual practices like private prayer or Bible study. Certainly, those things are good and necessary for life with Jesus - but are they actually what Jesus is talking about when he invites us to abide in him? How do we separate Jesus' invitation to abide from our cultural tendency toward rugged individualism? What should be our motivation for abiding? What is the best method to abide? And what are the results in our...

In John 14:8, Philip makes a request of Jesus - "Lord, show us the Father and it will be enough for us." As Jesus responds, we discover that he came to do much more than simply show us the Father. He came to reveal the Father. To represent the Father. And that changes everything about our relationship with God. How does Jesus represent the Father? How does Jesus represent us to the Father? And what does this mean for us? Join us in exploring the Story of God to find out. Resurrection Gig Harbor ...

All Christians live in the midst of a profound tension: Jesus has established his Kingdom in his life, death, and resurrection, and yet we await the Kingdom of God to be fully realized. What are we supposed to to in the meantime? How are we to live in this tension? In John 13, Jesus instructs us on how to live in this tension - "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another." But how should we love? How can we love like Jes...
