Disorientation, Part 3: Icons and Idols: Jesus’ Teaching on Adultery, Lust, and Divorce - Heather Zempel Jan 20, 2020

Show notes

The teachings of Jesus are disorienting. They are disorienting because some of them are difficult to understand and all of them are difficult to apply. Jesus points us to a Creator who designed sexuality to reflect the eternal joys and mysteries of heaven, and he teaches us to walk in relationships with one another in a way that reflects his perfect love. This message tackles the tough teachings of Jesus on adultery, lust, and divorce.

Disorientation, Part 2: Peeling Back the Layers of Anger - Joel Schmidgall Jan 12, 2020

Show notes

In Matthew 5:21-24, Jesus unpacks the true meaning behind the sixth commandment. The pharisees focused on the act of murder, but Jesus said, the anger in our hearts has the same judgment before God. Have you ever taken time to look under the hood of the anger in your life? Anger is a secondary emotion. When we dig beneath the surface, we find anger is often born out of an unmet need or expectation. And we find that there are other emotions and challenges at play that lead to anger being expressed. What is the underlying hurt in your life? Anger is an iceberg - there’s always so much more underneath the surface.
We’ll walk through this scripture and its progression, as it takes us from anger to forgiveness to reconciliation. Some of us need to learn to forgive and let go of those offenses that have actually taken us captive. And some of us need to reach out to those that have been offended by us and move towards reconciled relationship. These are not easy steps. But the Lord can give you wisdom as you reflect and let His Spirit bring revelation to your heart.

Disorientation, Part 1: Lick the Honey - Dr. Mark Batterson Jan 05, 2020

Show notes

Half of spiritual growth is learning. The other half is unlearning. Jesus didn’t do an orientation with his disciples. He did a disorientation. Six times in the Sermon on the Mount He says, “You have heard that it was said, but I tell you.” Jesus was uninstalling Old Testament paradigms and reinstalling New Covenant principles.

Unwrapped, Part 3: Submit to the Process - Joshua Symonette Dec 30, 2019

Show notes

We often have plans, goals, and things that we are pursuing. That is not a bad thing. But what happens when the plans we’ve made go left or don’t materialize? How do we respond to that? In the life of Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus, we see how to move forward when God has a different plan.

Unwrapped, Part 2: What is the Meaning of Joy? - Joshua Symonette Dec 22, 2019

Show notes

During the most wonderful time of the year, as dubbed by the popular Christmas song, many people don’t have the same sentiment. And there are many reasons for that. But the proclamation of Jesus’ birth, was not related to gift giving, holiday cheer, or decorations. It was all about joy found in the ultimate gift of Jesus.

Unwrapped, Part 1: The Art of Unwrapping - Dr. Mark Batterson Dec 15, 2019

Show notes

God’s greatest gift came wrapped in swaddling cloths. That gift is right relationship with God. It’s God with us, God for us, God in us. But that gift, like any gift, must be unwrapped.

4 simple words exploding with meaning - "peace be with you". Jesus' first words after being raised from the dead are loaded with cultural and historical meaning. There is much more than meets the eye and more relevant to our culture in crisis than ever.

Peacemakers, Part 5: The Cost of the Peacemaker: Persecution - Joel Schmidgall Dec 02, 2019

Show notes

Too many believers are following Christ, but at a distance. We’re close enough to see God’s power, but too far to experience his fellowship. In Matthew 5, the scripture inspires us to be peacemakers, but also exhorts us that there will be persecution that comes in following Christ. What we learn though is that challenges actually lead to purpose.
Today we lean in to both the scripture as well as stories of those who have walked through persecution. We pray you are both challenged and encouraged to go all in, in your pursuit of Christ and to live boldly in your faith.

Peacemakers, Part 3: Do Your Work First - Joshua Symonette Nov 18, 2019

Show notes

Jesus said in what is known as the Beatitudes, "blessed are the peacemakers." In this series, we have been focused on how to be peacemakers. One of the ways we can be effective peacemakers is by addressing our own bias and perspectives. Later on in the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus outlines how we are to do this. He says, do not judge. Instead, have a critical eye on you before you try to help others.
