No More Yeast

August 4, 2024 • Aaron Schaut

It only takes a little bit of pollution to ruin something pure. We’re all guilty of some hypocrisy, but Jesus offers us a transformed, new life if we will submit to His kingdom.

Scripture: Matthew 16:6, 11; Mark 2:27-28, Luke 12:1, 13:10-21; Galatians 3:23-25, 4:4

The Heart of the Problem

September 1, 2024 • Aaron Schaut • Psalm 51:10–11, Jeremiah 17:9, Ezekiel 36:36, Mark 7:1–23, Titus 3:3–5

If Jesus had no tolerance for the version of religion that never brought change at the heart level, neither should we. Instead, He modeled for us a different way - one where our inward purity matters more than our outward piety.

Influenced by Who?

August 18, 2024 • James Carlson

Relationships define our lives. Every day, we are formed by the people around us, even as we are forming the people around us. And Jesus' controversial life is the perfect example for how to intentionally steward our incredible influence. Scripture: Isaiah 42:6-7, Matthew 5:16, Luke 5:27-32, Acts 1:8, 1 Corinthians 15:33, 2 Corinthians 6:16, 1 Peter 2:12

Outside Our Box

August 11, 2024 • David Culbertson • Mark 2, Mark 3:1–6

We all have our "boxes"—those familiar places where we feel safe, understood, and in control. But what happens when Jesus calls us beyond these boundaries? What if He’s inviting us to expand our understanding, to stretch our faith, and to embrace something greater? Scripture: Mark 2, 3:1-3:6
