Lament is a vital practice for those walking through seasons of suffering, and in Psalm 143 we focus on the third rhythm of lament: “Ask.” Asking God in the midst of pain can feel unfamiliar or even difficult, but it is essential for staying connected to Him. In this passage, we learn that our greatest need is not just changed circumstances, but closeness with God. Join us as we discover how to ask honestly, stay faithfully, and experience the grace God gives through this practice.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Lament is an important exercise and practice for those who are wrestling in seasons of suffering. As we continue in our lament series, focusing on the first two rhythms of lament, "Turn" and "Complain," we learn how to do this well. Both of those rhythms can sound slightly strange in an ear untrained how to lament, but both are necessary and vital for receiving the grace that is in lament. Join us as we learn these rhythms and see the benefits of this practice together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
As we conclude our discipleship series studying Barnabas, we see an individual that is willing to both send and be sent for the sake of the gospel. Barnabas is not just encouraging other, or even raising them up, nurturing their gifts, but he is also sending them, in partnership with the Spirit, to make much of Jesus in fascinating ways. As we conclude this series we have to ask, are we willing to send and be sent for the glory of God? Does He mean this much to us? Can we see the impact living a "sent life" can make in the Kingdom? Join us as we conclude this series together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we continue our series on discipleship, studying Barnabas throughout Acts and how he made disciples. This week, we see how Barnabas was diligent in raising up many disciples, the most famous of which is Paul, but indeed, he developed many, many others. How did Barnabas stay committed to raising up others, even when deep persecution was happening, and deep sacrifices had to be made? Can we, like Barnabas, raise up others, and if so, how? Join us as we see a normal man do a mighty work, and learn how we can do the same.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we dive into Acts 9 and the moment Barnabas chooses to see what others miss. While fear keeps the disciples at a distance, Barnabas steps toward Paul, a former persecutor now changed by grace. This message isn’t just about Paul’s story; it’s about ours. We all long to be seen beyond our past, and discipleship begins when we see others the way Barnabas saw Paul—and the way Jesus sees us.Hosted on Ausha.

Join us as we begin a new sermon series looking at the portrait of Barnabas in the book of Acts, focusing on the lens of discipleship. Discipleship is a loaded topic, and many not only don't know what it means, but they disqualify themselves from making a deep impact in the Kingdom of God. What Barnabas will show us is that everyone can make disciples who change the world with intentionality. As we begin our series, we see that Barnabas was a disciple before he made other disciples. How do we be a disciple so that we can do the work of discipleship? Join us to find out more.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us this Sunday as we finish the Lord's Prayer, studying the last portion, Jesus' encouragement to pray against spiritual evil. Along with understanding why Jesus would say this, we will look at the prayer as a whole and learn practical tools for how to implement this into our normal prayer rhythms, and through this hopefully increase our prayer life. Jesus' prayer is layered, and as we learn how to apply it, it'll give us more intimacy with Him! Join us as we finish this series on prayer together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we talk about what it means to ask God to give us daily bread and forgive our sins. We'll talk about the importance of dependence on God as a means to cultivate intimacy with him in the wilderness of life.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we continue our series on prayer. This week, Jesus shifts from communion with God to mission with and for God. Intimacy breeds mission, as we seek more of Jesus on this earth. Jesus loves the Kingdom of God, talks about it often, and wants us to both pray for it, but also bring it, in partnership with Him. How does prayer springboard mission? How do we not grow weary in the work, but excited for the work, because of prayer? Also, we get to tangibly see mission played out as we launch out another church plant! Join us as we celebrate, pray, and learn together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we kick off our new year with a sermon series on prayer. For most Christians, if you were to ask what they want to grow in, prayer would be high on many people's list. Part of the reason we tend to lack discipline or desire in prayer though is because we're not going to the Father with the right heart posture or motivation. Many see prayer as a task to accomplish. But Jesus' famous prayer, the Lord's Prayer, would open up with a completely different tone. Communion, intimacy is the first rhythm of prayer. And if we can see this, it might just change our lives! Do you feel intiamcy with the Father in prayer? Join us as we study this passage together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us for our Christmas Gathering. This week to prepare our hearts for Christmas, we focus on Mary's Magnificat. This song is layered and deep, but can be summarized by two important truths: God is good, and joy is our (if we'd receive it!). How do we believe that God is good, and how do we receive joy? What does Christmas have to do with this? Join us as we study this text together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we dive into Luke 1:39–45, where Elizabeth asks, “Why has the mother of my Lord come to me?” This isn’t just about miracles—it’s about God showing up where we least expect Him. From unborn babies leaping in the womb to hearts filled with the Spirit, God approaches us in our fear, doubt, and waiting. In this message, we’ll see how recognizing His presence and responding in faith opens the door for God’s work in our lives. He’s already come near—will we see Him and respond?Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Mary’s question, “How will this be, since I’m a virgin?” reminds us that faith often begins with wonder, doubt, and questions. Even in the midst of silence, limitations, and uncertainty, God keeps His promises, supplies His power, and begins miracles before we can see them. Because God came once in impossible circumstances, our hope is alive today. Nothing is too big, too broken, or too far gone for Him.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we continue our Questioning Jesus series looking at an intriguing question asked by Jesus' own disciples. The disciples asked, "Why this waste..." as a woman pours out expensive oil over Jesus' head as she worships Him. Is worship and sacrifice ever a waste? Are we more like the disciples, or the woman? And how can we get to her state? Join us as we think about sacrifice, generosity, and more importantly, intimacy with Christ as we study this passage together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we unpack a conversation between Jesus and a Pharisee named Nicodemus about what it really means to be born again. We’ll dig into what it takes, what it actually looks like, and why Jesus’s words can be trusted, even in a world full of people claiming to know heaven. Being born again isn’t about trying harder, following more rules, or proving anything, but rather it’s about surrendering to the Spirit and letting God give you a brand new life.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we continue our Questioning Jesus series, this week looking at the mystery of healing. The leper is essentially asking Jesus not if He can heal, but does He love him enough to heal him. Jesus has compassion, and heals. So... what about us? Can God heal us? Most of us would answer yes! Does God want to heal us? How do we know? What if He doesn't, should that lead to disappointment... or something else? Join us as we wrestle with these thoughts together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
This week, we are looking at the question that Peter asks Jesus right after he is restored and recommissioned, "Lord, what about him?" Jesus gives Peter a calling, and Peter immediately begins to look at John, leading to comparison in his heart. If we are honest, we are like Peter. What is the antidote to comparison? It is contentment in Christ - fixing our gaze on him and focusing on the "who," allowing Him to define our "what." Join us this week as we talk through calling, comparison, and contentment in Christ.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
Join us as we continue in our Questioning Jesus series, this week looking at a question from Jesus' cousin, John the Baptist. What happens when Jesus isn't who you expect? What do you do? John here is doubting his faith because Jesus isn't meeting his expectations, and, if we're honest, most of us have been in or are currently in that camp! What do we do when God doesn't meet our expectations? Join us as we study this question together.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
As we continue our Questioning Jesus series we see a disciple ask Jesus a question about forgiveness. Who should we forgive? How should we forgive? How many times? Why do we struggle to forgive? Join us as we explore God's compassionate heart toward you and others.Hosted on Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
In Luke 5:27–32, Jesus turns a meal into a miracle. He calls Levi, a corrupt tax collector, to follow Him, and the table that once symbolized greed becomes a place of grace. This sermon explores how Jesus sees us, heals us, and sends us—transforming Pharisaical pride into humble participation in His feast of mercy.Hosted on Ausha.
