What's Keeping You from Recognizing Jesus?

Our Lead Pastor, Whit George, closes out Holy Week on Easter Sunday. We often believe our biggest problems are external: our circumstances, our relationships, our situation... But what if the deeper issue isn't out there, and it was actually within you? The resurrection confronts that reality. If Jesus really rose from the dead, then this life isn't all there is. Your story isn't over, and what you're longing for actually has an answer. The resurrection isn't just about what happened 2,000 years ago, it's about what's possible for you right now. In this message, Pastor Whit explores the following Scriptures: LUKE 24:15-16 ESV 15 While they were talking and discussing together, Jesus himself drew near and went with them. 16 But their eyes were kept from recognizing him. LUKE 24:21 ESV 21 But we had hoped that he was the one to redeem Israel... LUKE 24:25-27 ESV 25 And he said to them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26 Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?" 27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself. 1 CORINTHIANS 15:14, 16-19 ESV 14 ... if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain. 16 For if the dead are not raised, not even Christ has been raised. 17 And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. 18 Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If in Christ we have hope in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied. LUKE 24:32 ESV 32 They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the Scriptures?" – Next Steps Looking to take a next step?

A lot of people know about Jesus but have yet to experience the life-changing power of His grace and truth. Knowing Jesus has transformed our lives, so our goal for each of our worship services, from our kids' environments on up, is to help people know that same love. We actively pursue Jesus in everything we do and we believe He's given us a vision for a church that is deeply centered on Him and His word.
