The ultimate true friend is Jesus. He died for us when we didn’t deserve it. So what now? How are we supposed to live with that type of freedom? Being a true friend is understanding the grace and power we have through the Holy Spirit, and pouring that out in our relationships.
Relationships can be messy. Disagreements and fights are inevitable. So how do we reconcile? Jesus shows us himself how a relationship can be restored, despite what has happened in the past.
Jesus gave us a new commandment: love one another … the way he loves us.
Intimacy is impossible without being vulnerable. The challenge with being vulnerable is we might get hurt. But when we are reminded of our origin, and who we are in Christ, our relationships can experience intimacy. Because we are okay with being vulnerable.
Why should I keep following Jesus?
How do I follow Jesus?
What does “follow” really mean?
Who can follow Jesus?
What caused David, the man after God’s own heart, to commit adultery and murder? In this message we follow the small compromises that lead to David’s demise and establish three truths to help counteract the same mistakes in our own lives.
In Genesis 4 we see someone who could have killed the baby monsters in his life while they were still small, but didn’t. Huge horrible deeds come from tiny seeds - if we’re not victors over our sin we’ll become victims of it.
Judas wasn’t always known as the man who betrayed Jesus. But sin that is allowed to grow can change our identity without us realizing. In observing his betrayal, we are given two truths that can lead us from a path of our own destruction and we see the faithfulness of Jesus to always offer a way to redemption.
As we follow the life of Samson, we see how his small compromises lead to big mistakes. But God is faithful to redeem a humble heart. No one is ever too far gone. Our greatest days can come after our greatest failures.
Is your happiness grounded in your circumstances and achievement, or in a steadfast relationship with Christ? Like a fish out of water cannot improve its quality of life with things, our happiness cannot be complete without the foundation of the love of Christ. Only by dying to ourselves and living in Christ can we experience fullness of happiness and joy.
Have you ever had a time in your life when you felt overwhelmed? Certainly we all have. Maybe someone's even told you, "God won't give you more than you can handle." In this message, we learn why it's good for us to feel like we can't handle every overwhelming situation in our lives because God uses those circumstances to bring us closer to Him.
There is perhaps no more misquoted verse in the Bible than Matthew 7:1, “Judge not, that you be not judged.” In this message, we look at three wrong ways Christians go about judging, as well as the right way Christians are called to navigate these tricky waters without becoming hypocrites.
Some Christians will say, “You just need to forgive and forget.” “Move on. Get over it. Shake it off.” But how do you shake off something like abandonment, abuse, betrayal or lies? In this message, we see what the Bible really has to say about forgiving and forgetting.
