Fall Study: What does it Mean?

Alive to God in Psalm 1

October 29, 2019

Every Fall, we sit in a passage of Scripture for two months as an extended community. Our desire is to practice how to be Alive to God in Scripture, where we encounter God and be transformed by Him. This year, we journey through Psalm 1. Our website and phone app have all the resources and details. Hope you join us on the Fall Study!

In this episode, we continue our discussion around the question, "What does this passage mean?" Using the guardrails, we unearth the main ideas of Psalm 1, which have profound invitations for us moving forward.

This is Session 9 of our Fall Study: God and me, Actually, which is a 10-week expedition through Zechariah 3:1-7. In this final episode, Eric, Rachael, and David continue to explore the last two verses of our passage. The vision ends with an If-Then statement, showing us what it looks like to step into this new reality anchored in God as a "Rule-Breaker" and us as "chosen. In this episode, we focus on the “then” statement. If we walk in fidelity with God, privileges, empowerment and accessibility are offered to us. God invites us into the partnership and intimacy found in a transforming friendship. Hope you enjoy the conversation!

GOD AND ME, ACTUALLY: What God is Really Like

November 4, 2024

This is Session 7 of our Fall Study: God and me, Actually, which is a 10-week expedition through Zechariah 3:1-7. After spending a week exploring Our True Identity, Eric, Rachael, and David turn to the question of, "What is God really like?" To truly experience an authentic relationship with God, we not only need to grasp how God views us, but also embrace the truth of who God is. We all have views of God rooted in our upbringing, experience, and life circumstances, which are often distorted. We need to let God speak for Himself and for most of us, it will surprise us. What if God is different than what we expected? Our view of God is arguably the most important thing about us. Hope you enjoy the conversation!
