#2: "Saved"

February 12, 2023 • Brad Parkhurst

The Kingdom of Heaven is here, and through Jesus we can be SAVED from the consequences of sin + death! But... what does it really mean to put our faith in Jesus, and what actually happens when we do? There are lies and half-truths about salvation that MUST be torn down.

We're asking Jesus to tear down anything we've been believing that didn't come from him. In a culture that prioritizes comfort over everything, we want to earnestly and selflessly follow Jesus in full obedience.

#1: "Step Into The Story"

February 5, 2023 • Cameron Parkhurst

People tend to approach the scriptures in various ways, but one thing is certain: the Bible presents itself as one unified story. This story is so much bigger and better than how we may have been seeing it. What has God been after since the beginning of the universe? And how can we begin to live in this story?

#3: "Adopted"

When a person puts their faith in Jesus, they don't just move from death to life; they are adopted into God's family! This is not metaphor: God actually wants to relate to us as "Father". Everything changes when we understand what life should look like for the true children of God.

#4: "Receive"

Receiving Jesus is a lot more than just praying a prayer or "accepting him into your heart". We are raised to LIFE when we acknowledge Jesus as Savior AND Lord, and receive his life into ours.
