  42. David: The Goodfella

    06.06.21 - David at once inspires us and disgusts us. David is both a man after God’s own heart and a king after another man’s wife.

  43. David: The Ladies Man

    05.30.21 - David’s life is tangled up with women and wars, with family drama and national politics. It’s complicated. How can this man who is so driven by his mixed motives and so controlled by his own desires be considered a man after God’s own heart? Speaker: Allan Stanglin

    05.23.21 - How can a guy who so ruthlessly massacred his enemies and so easily lied to his friends be called a “man after God’s own heart?” How can someone betray his country, commit murder to cover up a sexual affair, run a mafia-style protection racket, and still be “beloved” by so many?

  46. Perfect Grace for Imperfect Moms

    05.09.21 - Today we look at Mary the mother of Jesus. In many ways, yes, she is the model mom. But in several other ways, she’s less than perfect. Mary made her share of poor decisions she wished she could do over. Not all her interactions with her holy Son were perfect. But God’s grace is...

  47. Pre|Start

    04.18.21 - We shouldn’t really begin a Re|Start as a church family until we’ve first reflected on where we’ve been and where we are.

  48. Meals With the Messiah: Breaking Bread

  49. Meals With the Messiah: Presence and Proof

    04.04.21 - The stories of the resurrection meals in Luke 24 perfectly mirror our experience as Christians. We go through seasons of dismay, frustration, and doubt.

  50. Meals With the Messiah: The Bread and The Cup

    03.28.21 - Jesus served a Passover meal to his disciples on the night he was betrayed.
