Do You Live in the Ordinary?
(Luke 2:41-52)Do you live in the ordinary or on spiritual auto-pilot? This weekend, God will challenge us to examine the rhythms and assumptions that shape our faith and remind us where true growth happens. We're going to see how Jesus is not just our example, but our perfect Savior.

Resilient
Part 4 | Relational Resiliency
(Colossians 3:12-17)Resiliency isn't just about what's happening inside of you. It shows itself most clearly in how you relate to the people around you. Strained relationships can drain resilience quickly, and a lack of resilience can just as quickly create strain in relationships. This weekend we’ll see how God acknowledges this tension and and supplies the resilience we need to overcome it.

Resilient
Part 3 | Physical Resiliency
(1 Kings 19:1-9)What if caring for your body is more than a wellness goal? What if it’s actually a part of faith? In part three of Resilient, we’ll discover how God meets us in our limits and why physical care, spiritual strength, and a resilient life are more connected than we often realize.

Resilient
Part 2 | Emotional Resiliency
(John 20:11-20)We all have emotions, and they serve an important purpose. They alert us to what’s happening around us, both good and bad. But we don’t always respond to our emotions in healthy ways. That’s why a big part of being resilient is learning how to navigate our emotions wisely. This week in Resilient, we’ll look at what the Bible teaches about emotional resiliency.

Resilient
Part 1 | Spiritual Resiliency
(2 Corinthians 4:7-18)Anyone can find resilience through discipline, deadlines, fear, success, or sheer determination. But as you've probably experienced, those sources of strength eventually fade and come to an end. As we begin this new series, we will explore how God provides a different, lasting form of resiliency that depends on his work in your heart and mind.

Galatians 4:4-5
Have you ever had to wait for something you wanted? In the waiting, it can feel like God is absent. The world waited centuries for God to send a Savior. And then, he sent the perfect gift at the perfect time. This Christmas we're going to discover that even in the waiting, God is never absent.

Reasons for the Season
Part 3 | Peace for the Broken
(Colossians 1:15-23)The word peace usually carries the connotation of calm, comfort, or relief from stress. The Bible frames it differently. Peace isn’t a feeling to chase. It's a broken relationship made whole. This weekend, we will discover one more reason for the season as we see how Jesus came to bring peace for the broken.

(1 John 4:7-12)Christmas is a season filled with warmth and expectation, but it can also highlight hurt, loneliness, and brokenness.

Reasons for the Season
Part 1 | Rescue for the Lost
(Luke 19:1-10)When the King of the universe came to dwell among us, he did not surround himself with the most religious people. Rather, he moved toward those who seemed farthest from God. This weekend we'll see how Jesus' encounter with a man named Zacchaeus reveals the main reason he came: to seek and to save the lost.
