BEING CHALLENGE: Prioritize PrayerIn the Scriptures, we see Jesus praying alone, early, often and consistently. We see Him pray in nature, in solitude, overnight, before miracles, to offer thanksgiving, in the midst of difficulty, and even when He doesn’t like what’s ahead. Prayer was always a priority in the life of Jesus in every circumstance. Today we’ll learn about the keystone habit of prioritizing prayer in our lives. - Mar 23, 2022Mercy in BetrayalMercy in BetrayalIN VIEW OF GOD’S MERCY: Mercy in Betrayal

BEING CHALLENGE: Study Scripture
In the only documented story, we have of Jesus Christ as a grown child, we see Him at the temple talking with and learning from the scholars about the Scriptures. At the end of that story, in Luke 2:52, we are told that Jesus Christ continued to grow in wisdom. Are you continuing to grow in wisdom? Studying Scripture allows you to gain wisdom about who God is and about who you are as His child. - Mar 16, 2022Mercy in SufferingMercy in SufferingIN VIEW OF GOD’S MERCY: Mercy in Suffering

In all four of the Gospels it didn’t take long for Jesus to choose his disciples (Matthew 4:18-22, Mark 1:16-20, Luke 6:12-15, John 2:35-42). He committed to these men and did life with them. This week in the Being Challenge, we are looking at the importance of the people you surround yourself with. - Mar 9, 2022Mercy in TemptationMercy in TemptationIN VIEW OF GOD’S MERCY: Mercy in Temptation

The most important target to hit as a disciple of Jesus is BEING in a relationship with Him. We know what it’s like to have the desire to grow in our relationship with God and yet feel stagnant.

The Transfiguration event on the church calendar was appropriately placed three days before Ash Wednesday, thus revealing that Christ would display His glory on earth just before He would begin the pain and suffering of His Lenten experience for our sins. Likewise, may we today fully appreciate the miracle of the Transfiguration and all that it entails, including the miraculous appearance of Moses and Elijah, as we too begin to prepare our hearts for our Lenten journey with Christ, our Savior.

When writing to the church at Corinth, Paul assumes that there will be unbelievers in their midst and so encourages them to consider them. Do we consider those who have doubts and questions when we are worshiping each weekend? - Feb 13, 2022Be an ExampleBe an ExampleWHERE TO SHARE: Be an Example
It is always difficult to share your faith with a family member who does not believe. As we seek to share God’s love with those who we love most, it is not just about our words, but about our lifestyles.

Matthew, also known as Levi, worked as a tax collector. After Matthew is called by Jesus, he shares Jesus with his fellow tax collectors. How can we share our faith with the people we know – even those who may not be so well liked?

Loving our neighbors is a staple of biblical living. But all too often, instead of loving our neighbors, we avoid them or are simply too busy for them. How can we carve out intentional time to love those who live near us, even if they are not like us? Sermon text: Luke 10:25-28

God can often call us out of our comfort zones to share Him with people we do not know, but He does know – and love.
