Some of you today may feel forgotten by the God who spoke your life into existence. He remains silent in the midst of your bareness... brokenness... singleness... loneliness... sadness... weariness. Although you’d never let another soul hear it, your heart cries out a raw prayer, “Lord, my name is ______. Do you even remember me?” I don’t know where you’re at today. Some of you may be in a really long difficult season. And if you were honest, you wonder where is this good and powerful God? It feels like he’s abandoned you.

Relentless

God may have you in the belly of the beast for a time. Don’t despair. The Holy Spirit's work in us is designed to make us more like Jesus. He uses the events of our daily lives to transform us. Sometimes these lessons seem way too hard. The problem is not that he asks too much of us—the problem is that we settle for too little. Our love for the status quo makes us leery of God's plan for us.
Disappointed

At the beginning of this message, I revealed to you one of the greatest disappointments in my life, losing my dad at the age of 7 and it has changed my life. But I want to tell you that in the midst of my loss and disappointment, God stepped in and appointed men that helped make today possible. And I want to introduce you to three of them.
Loving with Abandon

as we continue our series called Awkward Family Photos, we are going to take a look at one of the most awkward moments in the Gospels. We are going to a dinner party, but this will be unlike any dinner party you or I have ever attended. This moment has three characters involved: Jesus, along with a Pharisee and a woman, both of whom will be confronted with their desperate reality, this one being spiritual. And by the end of the party, these three will show us that the greater your grasp of what you have been forgiven, the greater your love for the one who has forgiven you. When we truly understand who God is, who we are before him, and what he has done to make us right, to rescue us, our hearts will erupt with love and worship. One of them gets it. The other doesn’t.
