Grace Invades Defeat

Luke 15

November 6, 2016 • Steve Busch

All of us mess up. All of us have lived for the glory of ourselves, seeking our own agenda at one point or another. In this message we unpack a familiar story of a son who chose his own way above all else. In his greatest moments of defeat though, we see that there's rescue in the ruin. Have you made a mess of your life? Do you find yourself struggling to walk with Jesus instead of away from Jesus? This message will clearly point to the pride that could be at work in your life but also give you a clear plan of coming back to the Lord. Jesus loves you. Jesus will meet you in the ruin...and rescue.

Grace Invades

November 20, 2016 • Josh Tovey

The prodigal son is a story of the fathers heart for all people! Jesus tells the story of the prodigal son because it relates to the sinners and tax collectors... Jesus then tells the story about the older brother who relates to the pharisees! Both sides are messed up! Both sides desperately need the grace that only the father can provide. The father’s invading grace changes everything!

Grace Invades Performance

November 13, 2016 • Matt Thompson

In these verses we'll take a closer look at the older brother and see that grace must invade his performance. Where the younger brother's sin led him to self-ruin, the older brother's sin will lead him to self-righteousness. These verses show us a picture of the religious elite that needed grace to invade their public perfection, their private rebellion, and their prideful delusion. At the end of it all we see that the younger brother and the older brother both needed invading grace... and so do we!
