The gospel is more than the story of what Jesus did 2,000 years ago. The gospel is the story of how we have been changed by what Jesus did for us 2,000 years ago. Today Mike shares a powerful message about sharing our story with others.
On the road of life, blowouts are going to happen. When they do, Mike shows us that we can run from God in anger, or run to God in our anger.
We are taught from a young age that when you pray and ask God for something, sometimes he says yes. Sometimes he says no. Sometimes he says wait. But those three options don't leave us much in the way of information. How can we have peace without all the details?
As we head into the fall, will you be able to stay on the path that God has for you? Mike Crowe shows us that unless we stop frequently to fuel up we'll never be able to stay on the road.
God will never ask you to fix somebody's life. God will never ask you to fix your own life. God will never ask you to fix anything.(The final message in our series "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")
Our lives are a mess. Our sin keeps us from God. If Jesus came so that we could have a pardon for our crimes, that would be enough. But God offers us so much more than that.(Part six of our series, "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")
God offers deliverance - deliverance from our sins, from a life of purposelessness, from despair. But are we sure we want it? Deliverance is always a threat to peace.(Part five of our series, "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")
Sometimes we describe faith as blindly stepping out into trust. And it can be that. But as we see from the life of David, real and lasting faith has to be earned.(Part three of our series, "David")
Confessing our sin to God and beginning the process of dealing with it is scary. But as David shows us, on the other side of the door is unimaginable grace.(Part two of our series, "David")
When you look into the story of David, you'll find yourself there. But you aren't the one on the throne. You are the one carried to his table.(Part one of our series "David")
The church isn't doing a great job of sharing the message of Jesus. It's because we've chosen a different message instead.(Part four of our series, "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")
As citizens of the Kingdom of God, we live fully in two worlds - a fake one and a real one. Our king has called us to live as authenticators.(Part three of our series, "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")

How should Christians take a stand in a broken world?(Part one of our new series, "Citizens: Life in the Kingdom of God")
Sometimes we treat our life like a family vacation. We put all our focus on the final destination, and the trip is just a means to an end. But today our Executive Minister, Mike Crowe, explains that it would be better to think of our life as a road trip.
"Is This a Sin?" is one of our favorite questions as Christians, because it helps us edge as close as we can to the line of what we can get away with. But there's a better question we should be asking when it comes to our behavior.
The Christian life offers riches and blessings beyond anything offered by the world, but most Christians never experience even a fraction of it. Jesus has set a table for us with everything we need. How do we get it?
