The Hard Sayings of Jesus

Grace Is Always Better

May 14, 2023 • Levi Portillo • Matthew 20:1–16

Give

That's not fair! Surely you have either said that or heard someone else say that before! We want life to be fair, but God wants something better. Let’s be like Jesus, the owner of the vineyard, and be gracious to everyone we interact with so that they may be amazed at God’s grace in us and drawn to the creator and redeemer of mankind.

A Third Door

July 30, 2023 • Brandon Wolters • Matthew 18:15–17

In the 1st century, the only two doors you could take in resolving relational conflict were fight or flight. Fast forward to our cultural moment, the 21st century, and nothing has changed. What if there was a radical third door you could enter regarding relational conflict? Would you be willing to open that door and walk in? Join us Sunday as we look at another hard saying of Jesus in which He invites us to enter through the third door: Peacemaking.

One Single-Minded Pursuit

July 23, 2023 • Brandon Wolters • Luke 19:1–10

“Not all who wander are lost.” Is that true? This Sunday, we will dive into a hard saying of Jesus that is easy to understand and simple to live out, yet we’ve complicated it. What’s the remedy? Join us as we unpack this saying together.

Follow Me

July 16, 2023 • Brett Posey • John 21

Peter, one of Jesus’s disciples was no stranger to the ministry of Jesus and the miracles He preformed, yet Peter continued to struggle being focused on His Teacher’s call to follow Him. So many times in our own lives, like Peter, we find ourselves wanting to be used by Christ. However, when Christ does call us to follow Him, we are quick to point out all the reasons we can’t, or worse, point out all the other people who don’t. Sunday we will explore another example of when Peter reminds us of the struggle to live out the simple but hard saying of Jesus “Follow Me”.
