    From Crowds to Community

    The early Church was built around a shared life of worship, learning, generosity, prayer, and fellowship—and God used that community to draw others to Himself. Acts 2 reminds us that we were never meant to follow Jesus alone; we were built for this kind of life together. Come discover what happens when the Church lives as the community God designed it to be.

    Easter

    Jesus' resurrection changed everything for the disciples and the world. His resurrection means that there is hope, and in Jesus, there is forgiveness of sins. To believe in Jesus, we believe in a God who overcomes death in death and gives us new life and forgiveness. 

  48. 896

    Good Friday

    Unlike David, Jesus was betrayed, caught, punished, and crucified by His own people. His death brings us life. To believe in the King of the Jews, we believe in a ruler who willingly laid down his life so that we might live. 

  49. 895

    Holy Thursday

    Jesus came for all of humanity as the rightful Son of all creation. Not only does he die for humanity, but he also willingly receives the betrayal of those with whom he shares a meal to save them. To believe in the Son of Man means to believe in someone who understands humanity through betrayal and suffering, and chooses to walk through it for us. 

  50. 894

    Palm Sunday

    Matthew 21:9 is a reflection on a name that has been given to Jesus throughout the Gospels. What does it mean to believe in the Son of David? It means that we believe in a God who, from the beginning, made a plan for the offspring of David, the great king of Israel, to redeem his people with the one True King in Jesus. To believe in the Son of David is to believe in a ruler who has been promised since the days of the great king, and to put our hope in a reality where we will be saved.
