Many of us have some type of social anxiety—who hasn’t gotten nervous to speak to a large group or afraid of a gaffe that will embarrass us in front of our peers? But being afraid of a “loss of face” can derail us, hem us in, and pin us down—causing us to miss amazing opportunities that may be exactly what God has in store for us. How can we take a different approach that leads to “life to the full”? Tune in with us to this message to hear more.

In our postmodern society, notions of sin, right and wrong, truth, and God are often believed to be misguided, outdated, and offensive. How can one person’s truth infringe on someone else’s rights to decide for themselves? In this message, we explore how we get to a place where moral wrong is much like one’s favorite ice cream flavor—“true for me but not necessarily for you". But do people who claim this really believe it? There’s much more to the story. Listen in to hear more.

Ever heard of the phrase “a chip off the old block”? How about “spitting image”? The author of Hebrews writes that Jesus is the “exact representation” of God’s being. What does that mean? How could a transcendent, holy, majestic being be perfectly represented as a human, subject to all kinds of foibles and challenges just as the rest of us mortals? Listen to this message to hear 5 ways Jesus was the spitting image of His father.

Since God seems to desire and expect praise from everyone throughout the Bible, does that make Him the ultimate narcissist? He has been accused of such plenty of times. And if His love for us is based on His own character and glory rather than something special about us, does that mean it is less than pure, sincere, and genuine? These are questions that both believers and non-believers wrestle with. Join us for Part 3 of this series on Better to hear more on these questions.

The author of the letter to the Hebrews writes that Jesus is the one through whom the universe is made. Perhaps no one can claim to know exactly what that means, but in this second message in the series Better, Paul Trimble delves into the vast depths and mysteries of the universe, as well as some science and history, to gain a greater appreciation for the one from whom it came.

Everyone wants something better in their life. But how do you identify what is better? And when you identify it, how do you maintain a laser-like focus versus losing your way? Two thousand years ago, the writer of the letter to the Hebrews extolled the One who is better in every way to any other competing priority or pursuit in our lives, and encouraged his listeners with why and how they could stay steadfast in their commitment to Him. Listen in to the introduction to this series.
