It’s not easy to hold two truths at the same time, especially when they shape how we see ourselves and God. This conversation explores a tension that feels both comforting and confronting, inviting us into a deeper, steadier kind of faith.
Why is it so hard to feel grateful when life is good, yet still so unsettled? In a world marked by beauty and burden, we often try to simplify what was never meant to be simple. Week 2 invites us to hold the tension and discover the steadiness waiting there.
Life is complex, yet we’re wired to simplify it. Faith challenges that instinct by inviting us to hold tension—between who we are, who we’re becoming, and how God meets us in both.
We often assume purpose requires perfection, while Jesus points to a kind of completeness that comes through growth, not flawlessness.
In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?
People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.
We take values like human dignity, compassion, and justice for granted today, but they only feel obvious because the church first introduced them.
Christmas marks the arrival of a solution to an unsolvable problem—how to stand before God when obedience isn't good enough.
No one was looking for God to appear in person, yet Jesus came to make the invisible God unmistakably known.
It’s common to feel a tug-of-war between inner anxiety and recognizing God’s nearness. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and Steve Cuss, we’re invited to consider some false needs that may be steering our reactions.
First-century Israel expected a king who would overthrow Rome. Jesus offered a kingdom far bigger—and he had to redefine “Messiah” before they could see it.
A desperate situation leads to a bold move, but no one expects how Jesus responds. What He does next reveals something beneath the surface, something that could reshape the way you understand and live out faith.
Sometimes clarity comes from the most unexpected places. In this teaching, we explore a moment that breaks boundaries, challenges assumptions, and asks a question we may not be ready for.
Peter’s story takes a turn on a stormy night when he dares to step out of the boat. What begins as bold faith turns into a moment of sinking reality—and an unexpected glimpse of Jesus’ heart in the midst of doubt.
We set out to build a church where the convinced and the curious could belong.
It’s one thing to trust God when you’ve lost control; it’s another to resist acting like God once you’ve gained it.
When life goes from bad to worse, will you simply react—or respond as if God is still with you?
Your life isn’t defined by what’s been done to you, but by how you choose to respond—especially when every instinct says to react.
What if you don’t feel like serving? Billy reminds us that humility isn’t a feeling—it’s a choice. Love shows up through serving those in our space and throughout our city. Serve one another humbly in love.
