Say What?
As humanity begins to fill the earth once again, they continue their rebellion, and so God comes and scatters all the people by confusing their language.
Slowing The Spread
By slowing the spread of wickedness, God reveals Himself as both a holy judge and a gracious redeemer.
The Image Thief
As Adam and Eve carry out God’s mandate for the earth, Satan enters the story to entice the couple to forfeit their identity.
The Origin Story
There is one true God and He is the author of all creation. God brings order, function, and beauty out of the dark, watery chaos by creating a magnificent world and a image bearing humanity.
Take It Slow
What if the key to getting what you really want in life is to simply slow down?
Living With Less
One of the best ways to eliminate hurry is when we learn to simplify.
Let It Rest
Through the discipline of Sabbath, we learn how to take a true rest and allow our souls to catch up with our schedules.
Stop The Noise
It might be time for you to discover (or rediscover) what quiet time is really all about.
Addicted to Busy
In this fast paced world, it is important to slow down long enough to discover what we are giving our attention to. Because what you give your attention to is the person you become.
The Promise of Hope
God always keeps His promises, even when He takes longer than we would like.
The Promise of The Light
God stayed true to His promises by sending Jesus at Christmas. Let the light of Jesus shine in you and through you.
The Promise of Love
Just like He did for Mary, God wants to do something new within your life because of His great love for you.
The Promise of Peace
We can experience peace right in the middle of the struggles of life because of Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection.
Missions Update - Brian Bishop
Guest missionary Brian Bishop with UW Green Bay Chi Alpha
Greedy or Grateful
When we neglect to be thankful, we have set ourselves on a dangerous course.
Sacrifices of Praise
True joy and praise stem from a heart of thankfulness and sometimes praise requires a sacrifice.
In ALL Things
The Apostle Paul admonishes us to give thanks in all things. While giving thanks for everything isn’t always pleasant, it’s God’s will.
Blood Feuds
As we gather for the Lord's Supper, let's put aside the feuds that divide us and remember the sacrifice that unites us.
The Bread and The Cup
When Jesus took up the bread and the cup, He infused something old with something new.
Hope for the Doubter
When life gets tough, it is easy to doubt that things can get better. We need to have eyes to see that Jesus is active in our lives today. The Church must become a place that is safe for those who have doubts. The evidence for God is best revealed when it is lived out authentically in community.
Hope for the Underdog
There is no enemy you can face in this life that God cannot give you the victory over. But you must trust in Him. When the Church comes together in great faith, there is nothing it cannot do.
Hope for the Weary
Jesus offers us a gift in saying that he has come to give us rest. This rest is found in a grace that does not demand that we jump through all the hoops or get everything right. The rest that Jesus offers is an unmerited favor for anyone who comes to Him.
Christ Centered Community
God never intended for us to walk alone. Authentic community in which we deeply know others and are known by others is necessary for a victorious faith life.
Prayer
Jesus taught that the most effective prayers are simple and heartfelt.
Bible Reading
The Bible is God’s authoritative Word, showing us clearly who God has been in the history of humanity and what he desires for us individually.
Freedom in Spirit
If you are not seeing the fruit, you may need to check your roots.
Our Story
You are not just saved from something, you are saved for something.
Freedom In Adoption
When we adopt the promise of grace, religion crumbles.
Freedom to Sacrifice
Willingness to sacrifice is one of our highest ideals. But what we are willing to sacrifice for makes all the difference.
Freedom to Lead
Paul took an unusual path to become a leader in the early church.
Freedom to Believe
We are invited to the family of God and to be students of God's Word.
At Home With Hospitality
Because Christians have received hospitality and welcome in Christ, hospitality has now become central to our identity and to how we make kingdom disciples.
At Home With Sacrifice
On the cross, Jesus showed us the cost of the hospitality of God to sinners.
At Home With Strangers
Hospitality is a biblical command meant to bring the love of God into the reality of our day-to-day lives; it is especially meant for those who are far from God and the most vulnerable.
At Home With God
Hospitality starts with God; in making a home for humanity, God shows his care and that he himself is our home.
