Episodes
-
A Different Approach
For a long time the church has been known what they are against. In this message, we take a look at Jesus' method and discover maybe there there is a different way.
-
Time
We're all busy. Our schedules are packed with career, family, friends, church, and other responsibilities. Sometimes our days are so full that we don't enjoy anything because we're trying to do everything. Our relationship with God and with others benefits when we create breathing room in our...
-
Catching Your Breath
Our lives are busy and fast-paced. The lack of margin increases our stress and shortens our tempers. It can distract us from the most important things in our lives . . . and our relationships suffer. It can even affect our relationship with God because there's a connection between our willingness...
-
O Come, O Come Emmanuel
Christmas is over. All the wrapping paper has been thrown away, we're eating leftovers for the foreseeable future, and we've already moved onto the next thing. But, is there a way to keep the message of Christmas in our hearts during the rest of the year? How do we make Christmas a lifestyle...
-
O Come All Ye Faithful
O come all ye faithful, joyful, and triumphant.... We've all sang those words dozens of times but, what do we do when we know we haven't been faithful, we don't feel joyful, and we aren't triumphant? How does Jesus respond to people like that and who does Jesus call?
-
O Holy Night
We've all sang Christmas songs since before we can remember. Often times, we've become so familiar with the songs that we don't stop to consider what they actually mean. In this message we'll discover some truth inside the song, "O Holy Night" that can inspire us to keep moving in our…

Rise Above It
Living a life of gratitude isn't going to happen on accident. This week, we discover two more habits that we can put in to place if we are going to choose thankfulness as a lifestyle.
-
I've Pre-Decided
It's easy to be thankful when everything is working out the way we want it but it's a lot harder to be thankful when life seems to be falling down around us. In this message we discover some habits of gratitude that will translate into an attitude of gratitude.
-
All the Fixin's
There comes a point in some of our lives when we look at members of our family and say, "I don't care anymore. There's too much hurt, too much pain, and too much history." The easy way is to write them off and go on with our life. But, as followers of Christ, He has called us to something much...
-
The Common Thread
When it comes to family, the only thing we all have in common is conflict. Family conflict is like no other because when you win an argument in your family, you don't really win anything. The conflict is never fully resolved. What if there was a way to resolve family conflict by dealing with it…
more -
Power Down
In his letter to the Ephesians, the apostle Paul drew from Jesus' use of power what is perhaps the most powerful relational teaching of all - an instruction that changes everything in family dynamics. It all comes down to asking a simple question: What can I do to help?
-
Ideally Speaking
When the ideal is hard to attain, it's tempting to just lower the bar and redefine the ideal. This can be especially true when it comes to Jesus' teachings about family, which many of us have already fallen short of. In this message, Kyle explains why aiming for God's ideal is still worth it…
more -
Control Yourself
When it comes to getting from where you are in life to where you want to be, this one thing can set you on the right course.
-
Seeing is Believing
No matter where we find ourselves, we all have an area of life where we find ourselves stuck. That is to say, we wish we were somewhere else. Tired of being stuck and wishing for something different? Discover the one obstacle that keeps us from moving from where we are to where we want to be.
-
From Here to There
We've all made wishes about our lives and the lives of the people around us. But, have you ever stopped to consider what God wishes for your life?
-
When God is Late
Why didn't God do something? Sometimes, despite our most fervent prayers, God doesn't show up the way we want him to. The cancer isn't cured. The company fails. The foreclosure goes through. In this message, Kyle tells us what to look for when it feels like God forgot to show up.
-
When God is Uncooperative
We've all seen athletes point to heaven after touchdowns or home runs. And we've heard actors thank God during their acceptance speeches. We know God can be glorified in our moments of success. But what about moments of weakness? How do we keep going when our circumstances are crippling and God...
-
When God is Inattentive
Is God's silence a sign of his absence? Or does it mean something else? In this message, Kyle recounts the story of a man Jesus said was the greatest who ever lived. And yet, even this man struggled with God's inattentiveness. The message Jesus sends him in the middle of his doubt contains a…
more -
Caught in a Current
No doubt about it. There's power in prayer. We often hope that power will affect our outcomes, but what if its greatest power is to change what happens inside of us? In part two of Pray, we examine a scene revealing Jesus' desperate need for the changing power of prayer.
-
Our Father
Prayer is just talking to God...right? Maybe prayer is more than just us "talking"; more than convincing God to give us what we want. In this message, Kyle unpacks Jesus' life-changing answer to the request, "Lord, teach us to pray..."
-
Attention, Please
Direction determines destination. But what is it that influences direction? What is it that starts us on our course, either for the places we want to go or the destinations we'd rather avoid? If we could determine what this is, then we could change our course upstream and save ourselves a lot of...
-
Looking Ahead
We've all ended up places we never meant to be--where life was complicated and there were seemingly no good options. And looking back we saw the warning signs. We just chose to ignore them. But it doesn't have to be that way. By looking back at an old wisdom saying we'll learn to look ahead and...
-
The Principle of the Path
Think about the last time you were traveling and got lost. You had your destination in mind. You had every intention of getting there. But you took the wrong path, and you didn't end up where you wanted to be. A disconnect often occurs between the path you choose and where you want to end up.…
more -
A New Approach
When an adult becomes a Christian, most of the time it's not because all of their questions were answered or their obstacles were conquered. Most of the time it's very, very personal.
-
Insiders. Outsiders.
Without intending to, Christianity won the West. It toppled the Roman Empire. And it did so without raising a sword. What was the secret of the early church's influence? And where did we go wrong? In this message, Kyle reveals the secret-and a lesson for us about judging others. This may be…
more -
Week 2-Quitters
The words used to describe Christians today often bear no resemblance to the one word Jesus wanted his followers to be known for. What would it look like if, for one day, we got it right? What if we as Christians embodied this one word? What if our behavior was so consistent with this word that...
-
Week 1-Brand Recognition
"Christian" is a brand that can be good, bad, attractive, or repelling. It's a loaded label no matter whom you ask. But where did the word come from? And did it come with instructions? In this message, Kyle reexamines the word "Christian" and revisits the one thing Jesus wanted his followers to…
more -
The Change In My Habits
Discipline isn't something very many people enjoy and not many people would say they are a naturally disciplined person. A lot of us are good starters...we're just not great finishers. What do we do about that? How do we say "no" to something now so we can say "yes" to something better later?
-
The Change In What I Say
We all know that words can be powerful. We been on the giving end and receiving end of words that have helped us, encouraged us, motivated us, and encouraged us. Unfortunately, we've also said and heard words that have discouraged and hurt us. How can we make sure the words we say are used for…
more -
The Change In My Brain
It's often the small changes in our life that create the biggest impact. But, nothing can be changed until we change the way we think.
-
A New You Resolution
As we move into a New Year a lot of people begin to set goals for themselves. Lose some weight, get out of debt, spend more time with family, etc. And, as good as those goals are, there is one thing we should all do first. In this message, learn what the most important resolution you can ever…
more -
An Unlikely Candidate
When we look back into the family history of Jesus, there are some unsavory characters there. If these people were in our family, we wouldn't want to invite them over for Christmas dinner and others we would prefer to not be associate with. And yet, Matthew goes out of his way to highlight them....
-
The Guest List
When Matthew decided to write about his experiences with Jesus, he started in an unusual way. Instead of starting with a story he starts with a genealogy. Not only that but he includes some pretty shady characters in the genealogy that would have been better to have left out. Why would he do…

A New Perspective on Thanksgiving
How is it possible that you can feel so much gratitude but other people perceive you as being ungrateful? In this message, we'll discover what's missing and how to solve the problem.
-
Week 5-The Secret Sauce
No one likes to be wrong. No one likes to be told what to do. But insisting that you're always right isn't a recipe for a great marriage. Great marriages are built on humility . . . on the willingness of both spouses to submit to each other and to God. But how do you do that? It all begins with...
-
Week 4-Feelin' It
What happens after I do? How can the person to whom a woman gave her deepest vow become the person she despises most? How can the beautiful woman a man couldn't stay away from become the person he can't stand to be around? In Part 4, we listen to Andy Stanley as he dispels a common myth about why...
-
Week 2-Putting My "I" Out
The answer to the question, “What does my spouse owe me?” determines the quality of marriage we will have. This message takes a look at what Paul says in the answer to that question is.
-
Week 1-Keeping My "I" On You
We all come into marriage with hopes, dreams, and desires about what this new adventure is going to look like. Over time, though, something very subtle can happen that changes the whole dynamic of the marriage. If you feel like romance and intimacy are missing in your marriage, this might be the...
-
Invest and Invite
When the Church first started, it was passionate about making a difference. Recently, however, it seems the Church is more interested in making a point. How do we get back to making a difference? We think it starts by discovering what Jesus was most passionate about. Because when we become...
-
Stress Relief
Our world moves at a break neck pace. And, most of the time, as our schedules get busier, our stress level goes up. And, when our stress level goes up, joy is hard to find. But, the Bible promises we can have peace in every area of our life. How do we get it? How do we keep it? That's what we'll...
-
Making Joy a Habit
It's been said that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and expecting a different result. In this message, we discover some new habits that we have to form if we are going to live a life of joy.
-
The Joy of Knowing
Continuing in our series "Journey to Joy" we look at Philippians 3:1-11 and discover that God is so much more interested in us having a relationship with him and knowing Him personally than he is about us knowing about Him. In this message, we look at how we can go deeper in our knowledge of who...
-
The Humble Path to Joy
One of the roadblocks to a life full of joy is the conflict that we all have to face. But, Paul shows us that there is a way to get through the conflict that you might be in now and reduce the conflict in your life as you move forward. It's not the easy path or the natural path but, it's the path...
-
Joy No Matter What
What if there was a way where you could be joy filled even when life isn't going the way you wanted it to go? What if you could be full of joy even when you're unhappy? Sounds impossible doesn't it? But, in his letter to the church in Philippi, Paul gives us some insight on how he dealt with...
-
Joy Filled Relationships
The Bible never promises that we can be happy all the time. However, it does teach there is a way for us to be joy filled people-even when our current set of circumstances don't make us happy. In this message, we'll look at how to have joy in our relationships with family, co-workers, friends…
more -
Jacob's Limp, Peter's Tears, Paul's Thorn
Pain, suffering, and tears. Many have tried to avoid them-all have failed. The good news for you and I is that God can bring purpose from our pain and transformation to our life through the suffering.
-
What's in the Gap?-Story of Kay Robertson
Can you imagine what it would be like if every single relationship in your life was filled with peace? Wouldn't that be incredible? The problem is that, inevitably, there's going to be a gap between what our expectations were and what our experience was. The question is, what will you fill in…

This Hope We Have-Story of Sujo John
If you've ever felt like you're not sure what to say when someone asks about why you're a Christian, you're not alone! But, the good news is, you don't have to be a Bible scholar or a Bible school graduate to be able to share your faith. In this message, we'll discover how we can communicate...
-
Content No Matter What-Story of Darrell Waltrip
The idea that we could be content no matter what our circumstances are seems crazy. If we're honest, it seems unreachable. However, Jesus gives us a way that we can move in that direction. In this message, discover the keys to be content no matter what else is going on in your life. Darrell's…

Increase our Faith-Story of Tony Dungy
Tony Dungy felt like he was exactly where God wanted him to be and yet things still weren't working out the way he thought/expected they would. And still, he chose to trust in God. In this message, we'll look at why faith is so important and 3 ways that God grows our faith.
