Jesus overcame the power of sin and death, so that you, too, could be raised to new life, starting now and lasting forever.

The cross is not just the way Jesus died, it's the way His followers live.

Are you being led by the flesh or by the Spirit?

You have been given a new name, a new family, and a new purpose, because you have been chosen and adopted into the family of God.

How do we help people belong to God's family? Be healed. Get curious. And pull up a chair.

Are you more concerned with policing the boundaries of Christianity or pointing everyone to the Center of it?

The most persuasive argument for the gospel is simply the story of what Jesus has done in our lives.

There are options in how we handle conflict. Not every disagreement needs to escalate to a "die on this hill" level. But for Paul, our understanding of the Gospel, and how we live it out, isn't something we can just agree to disagree on. Be careful of so-called gospels that don't flat out reject Jesus, but repurpose Him. They may promise a lot of freedom, but ultimately end in chains.

Peace is something we all want and wonder where to find it. True peace is found in the presence of Jesus.

Hope is Jesus.

The final 3 commands - the holy HOA for Israel's life together.

Sex has been designed for covenant, not consumption.

Every law contains not just a negative command (DO NOT!), but also a positive (DO!). In this case, it's Do Not Murder, and Do value the gift of life. Are Christians really "pro life?" What does that look like?

Collette Nybakken is home to share with us what God has been doing in the last year in Cambodia.

The family structure is the primary means through which God's covenantal promises are passed on.

The Sabbath was a gift before it was ever a law. Receive it!

How do we carry the name of God in a trustworthy and holy way?

Who we become is shaped by we worship.

Before the rules, there was a relationship. Before God gave commands, He gave grace.

Christ-centered community should be made up of equal parts encouragement and challenge.

Growing in head, heart, and hands.

We don’t do good to earn God’s love; we do good because of God’s love.

Good soil is prepared, not accidental.

Fighting the good fight means fighting to look more likeJesus every day.

God doesn't look at what man does, he looks at our hearts. So what is He looking for?

The Good life isn't found by attaining something you DON'T have, but in learning to love what you DO have.

Faithfulness in the Kingdom of God is not measured in maintaining but in multiplying.

What's your role in the Body? The Holy Spirit has given you a gift to build the Church and bless the world.

How has God empowered you to serve?

The power of Jesus' teaching is not in the hearing, but in the doing.

Keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking. In God's timing and in his perfect wisdom, you will find what you really need.

Have you personally experienced the Risen Jesus for yourself?

We often decree judgment on others, but presume grace for ourselves. What does Jesus say about judging others?

Doing the right things for the wrong reasons.
