Presence | John Muller

September 15, 2024 • John Muller • Exodus 33

We often hear about someone who has a "calming presence," or what it’s like to be "in the presence of greatness." But what comes to mind when you think about being in the presence of God? Is this even something we have access to? The truth is, we have access to God through prayer right now, but we are constantly surrounded by distractions. In this week's message from Exodus 33, Pastor John explains how experiencing God's presence is vitally important in understanding two things: who we are and what our purpose is.

The Five Convictions Of Those Who Transform The World

September 8, 2024 • J.D. Greear • Acts 7

Though the first few chapters of Acts are filled with baptisms and miracles, the pivotal point of the book—the stoning of Stephen—shows how God uses ordinary believers to display his power and accomplish his mission amidst persecution. In this week's message from Acts 7 and 8, Pastor J.D. encourages us to consider how God might be calling us to advance the mission of the gospel. It won't look the same for everyone, of course. But the worth of Jesus and the truth of the gospel should compel us to share with a lost and dying world, whether here or overseas.

ASKing for Wisdom: Ask + Seek + Knock

September 1, 2024 • Curtis Andrusko • Matthew 7

We all face situations in our lives that seem impossible to navigate, where we simply lack the wisdom to make the best decision. It is in these moments where we might be tempted to think that if we only did enough research or talked to enough people, we would have the discernment needed. In reality, true wisdom comes from God alone, and he invites us to ask him for it. In this week's message from Matthew 7, Pastor Curtis shows us how we can seek God through prayer, approaching him as our Father who delights in giving good gifts to his children.

Imagine the Worst

July 7, 2024 • John Muller

We all build our lives on something. For many, it's the pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. For others, it may be the allure of a successful career or the comfort of relationships. But these things were never meant to bear the weight of our faith. In this week's message from Mark 5, Pastor John takes us through the story of two healings performed by Jesus, the only one in whom we can joyfully and confidently place our faith.
