Message by: Scott Treadway & Karri Pettit God created us all with the gift of feeling. Some of us lead with our emotions, while others can be stunted emotionally either by nature (genetics) or nurture (upbringing), This week, we discover how Jesus models healthy emotional connections with God and the people we love.

Message by: Scott Treadway For people who lead as Thinkers, faith can be a difficult journey; trying to make some sense of the world of faith. This week, we give a few examples of how the intellect can engage with the interpretation of the Bible without losing a focus on the message and life of Jesus.

Message by: Scott Treadway In the Great Commandment, Jesus invites us to love God "with all our minds", yet so much of church life resists thinking deeply about faith. What we believe and why we believe it is rarely questioned or challenged, perhaps for fear of getting it wrong or being judged. This message frees us to enjoy the journey of our God-given mind as our faith stretches and grows by thinking, reasoning, learning, and even questioning.

Message by: Steve Salomon In this opening message of Feeler. Thinker. Doer., we explore how each of us is uniquely wired—and how that shapes the way we connect with God and others. Through the image of the vine and branches and the diversity of Jesus’ disciples, we’re invited to stop comparing, start accepting who we are, and grow in appreciation for the differences around us. Because when we understand how we’re wired, we not only grow in self-awareness… we grow in grace. For more please visit https://www.rancho.tv/events #wearerancho

Message by: Scott Treadway Typical kings, queens, and monarchs live above the people in places of comfort and privilege, even as their subjects suffer. However, Jesus was and is with us, living with us, and even suffering with us. In fact, in the end, Jesus endured every possible form of suffering imaginable. So, on this Palm Sunday, we'll see the suffering of Jesus, then see through the suffering of Jesus to the resurrection where there is victory over suffering and victory over death itself.

Message by: Scott Treadway Jesus is a different kind of king, bringing justice on earth for everyone, especially the lost, forgotten, underprivileged, lonely, marginalized, and the judged.

Monarchs throughout history, and monarchs today are better known for cruelty than they are for mercy. God Himself has historically been portrayed as being cruel, broodingly overseeing obedience or disobedience, delivering reward and punishments. Jesus, however, shows that God is merciful and kind toward us all, especially toward those who once thought of God as cruel. For more please visit https://www.rancho.tv/events #wearerancho

Message by: Scott Treadway The wisdom of Jesus is unlike the wisdom of the world that values power, glory, and wealth. The wisdom of the Kingdom of Heaven is not of this world. It is an invisible, thoughtful, creative, relationship-driven wisdom of humility, self-sacrifice, forgiveness and, above all, love. For more please visit https://www.rancho.tv/events #wearerancho

Message by: Scott Treadway Jesus is the King of Kings, but he is unlike any king before him. Instead of wielding authority through glory, power, wealth, threats, and violence, Jesus came as a peasant, serving peasants, and equipping peasants to change the world through love.

Message by: Scott Treadway Joseph was an ordinary young man in the ancient Near East when circumstances rocked his world and shook his faith to the core. His fiancé would be with a child that was not his. A voice from heaven told him it would be ok, but his journey of faith would be difficult. God is patient with our honest struggles in life and faith today as He was with Joseph 2,000 years ago.

Message by: Scott Treadway In the second temptation of Jesus in the wilderness, He is offered the kind of glory and power often associated with the promise of a savior, but He refuses. Instead, Jesus chooses the call of God to save the world through humble service from the heart of love. God continues to save the world through our humble service led by the Spirit of Christ in us.

Message by: Steve Salomon This past week at Rancho, we explored where true happiness is found—not in controlling circumstances, but in surrendering to God.

Together, we celebrated the joy that comes when we trust God’s ways and walk in His love. For more please visit https://www.rancho.tv/events #wearerancho

Message by: Scott Treadway The temptation of Jesus in the wilderness was a dark attack on the light of human flourishing, luring Jesus away from God's vision of happiness, peace, and contentment.
