Easter 2020 - Hope is Alive!

There is not a lot of hope being talked about right now.  Where is Hope?  The one who conquered death can give us the only hope we need.  

I'm Scared - Week 3 - Brave

Who is the bravest person you can think of?  Why are they brave?  They are brave because they acted.  Now is the time for the people of God to act.  Let's Pray, Invite, and Engage.  

I'm Scared - Week 2 - What do you See?

The story of the 12 spies is a great example of people seeing the same thing but responding differently.  10 saw Fear and 2 saw Faith.  During this current crisis - what do you see?

I'm Scared - Week 1 - 3 in 1

In the midst of what we are going through, there are 3 big fears which are all associated with our current reality.  You might be struggling with fear.  God gives us hope in the midst of our fear and has an answer for these 3 big fears.  Are you afraid?  Be honest.  God has hope for you!!

How to respond in times like this.

Are you choosing fear or trust?  It is not as easy as it sounds but as followers of Jesus, we have the opportunity when things fall apart to choose trust.  

Bystander - Week 2 - Living as If

Jesus had an incredible encounter with a man who needed him to heal his son.  What Jesus asks the man to do is where we live.  Walk by Faith.  

Bystander - Week 1 - Water to Wine the First Sign

We are on a journey leading up to Easter Sunday to know why we believe and why we should have faith.  John is going to lead us on this journey of 7 signs to help us understand who Jesus is.  

Big Questions - Week 7 - What Do I Do with My Life?

As we wrap up our series we take a look at surrender.  Are we going along with the patterns of this world?  Are we using our God-given gifts?  All are a part of surrender.  

Big Questions - Week 6 - Why Me?

Have you ever thought - Why Me?  Why would God love me?  Why would God use me?  I wonder if Paul ever asked that.  He started life blowing up churches and throwing Christians in prison to leading the movement.  It is an incredible story and Paul embraces his unique position.  Do we do that?

Big Questions - Week 5 - Why do bad things happen to Christ Followers?

Pain, loss, and grief have a way of pushing Christ Followers away from Jesus.  It shouldn't be that way.  How can we get a better perspective of the world in which we live and the promises of God to us in pain, loss, and grief?  Pastor Ed deals with that topic today!!
