We are here to guide people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, and create a church that the unchurched of Evergreen love to attend in Evergreen.
We are all on a quest for happiness. What corners have you cut on your quest for happiness? Jesus had a lot to say about happiness. What He offered was available to everyone, but resisted by most. Listen to what He offered to see if what He offered might be a help to you on your quest for happiness.
There are a lot of different representations of Jesus, from South Park Jesus to Jesus Christ Superstar. But who is Jesus to you? Join us as we talk about who Jesus said He was.
Deconstruction is necessary at times. But if we only deconstruct and never rebuild, where does that leave us? In this episode, Josh talks about the necessity of "running towards" versus always "running from."
Are all religions one? What about those religions that claim that their view is the only true view? Isn't the type of narrow-minded exclusivity dangerous?In this week's episode, Josh discusses whether Christianity is an inclusive or exclusive religions.
Have you ever struggled with the idea of faith because of...you know...science? If science has made you skeptical about faith in the past, listen to this week's episode as Josh talks about the possibilities for fitting both science and God at the same table.
We have all built our lives on some type of belief system or "foundation," even those of us who are not particularly religious. We also all come to a place where what has made sense or worked for us in the past no longer works. This is where we need to stop and evaluate our belief systems–especially those of us who call ourselves Jesus followers–to ensure that our walls and our foundations align with what we say we believe. Listen in as Christy describes the foundation of our Christian faith, so we can evaluate whether our walls reflect what we say we believe.
What happens when a misconception becomes a true conviction? Whether we like it or not––admit it or not––we all have biases, convictions, and blindspots when it comes to our belief systems that need to be re-examined and even possibly jettisoned. Listen in as Josh discusses the various ways we may need to examine our own belief systems in order to strengthen our belief systems.
Did you know that God not only loves us, He also likes us? Listen as Josh talks about how God is different from other deities, how He stacks the deck in our favor.
Other people may give up on you or write you off when you screw up. But listen as Josh tells us how Jesus will never give up on us, even when we get Him wrong.
Hear how pride does can create barriers in our relationships, then hear some practical steps for finding the breakthroughs we want.
All of us struggle with pride to some degree, whether we like to admit to it or not. Josh shares the three predictable outcomes of pride along with how to deal with our pride so that it doesn't destroy us and those we love.
Our lives often feel so messy and out of control, it's hard to believe that the things in life that are happening to us are forming any pattern at all. In this episode, Josh shares how God used a widow, a farmer and a foreigner to change the world...without them even trying.
We all know what it's like to be inspired by a love story--the hand holding, the first smooch, the happily ever after. In this episode, hear Josh debunk the myth that once you find the right person, everything will be alright.
In this week’s talk, Josh explores the story of Naomi and Ruth in the book of Ruth, explaining how their relationship contributes to the broader narrative of redemption and hope we find throughout Scripture.
n the New Testament, every single person of faith experienced a crisis when they encountered God differently than expected. Some emerged with their faith intact, while others did not. Josh discusses the one thing every believer must have for a healthy and robust faith in this week's talk.
Even those who are deeply committed to their faith can find themselves grappling with doubt and a desire to experience more of God. Many of us believe that witnessing a miracle might help alleviate our doubts, but this may not necessarily be the case. Listen to this week's talk as Josh delves into the reasons why miracles, although awe-inspiring, may not provide the answers we're seeking.
The word of the day is "Incarnation," a fancy word that just means that God came in the flesh to be with us. This week, Josh shares how God didn't just give us a list, He gave us Himself. See how God invites us into a relationship with Him where we can safely ask our questions, even if He doesn't provide a direct path to the answers we feel we need.
Following in the inspirational steps of the amazing Matt Foley, Josh tells us how to find encouragement when our lives don't turn out quite the way we were hoping they would.
We sometimes write-off, oversimplify or even make fun of views we don't understand. It is impossible to love someone we don't understand. This week Josh takes us to Acts 17:16-34 to show how the Apostle Paul lovingly, intentionally changed his approach in order to reach a different audience for Jesus.
We all have "thems" in our lives. Someone or some group who is not "us" who makes us miserable, creating situations in our lives that wreak havoc. But what if we could be happy without our "thems"? What if God could use the "thems" and their corresponding circumstances in our lives? This week Josh takes us into Phillipians 1:18-26 to explore how God can help us be ok, even if our "thems" never change.
Today Josh took a short break from our series "Better Off Without Them" to talk about Jack Sparrow's "broken" compass that only points in the direction of what the holder wants most. What is it you want most? Would you believe that your deepest desires were given by God? And that He wants to use those desires to bring you closer to Him? Listen in as Josh talks more about our desires and the way those serve us to lead us into a deeper, more fulfilling relationship with God.
In part 2 of our series, Better Off Without Them, Edwin tells the story of Elijah when he confronts the prophets of Ba'al on Mount Carmel. Elijah had just won a huge victory against his opponents. So then why was he so depressed? Edwin shares what Elijah learned where God does His best work and how we can trust God to deal with our "others."
In Part 3 of our Over The Top Series, Josh shares how there's something about Jesus that brings the radical out in people, how the extraordinary love of Jesus pushes us beyond our comfort zone, creating a life that is anything but boring.
We welcome our friends Tony, Coco and Isaac from Juarez, Mexico who have dedicated their lives to serving the people of their community.
This week we explore what causes people to go to extreme lengths for things that don't sense at first. What would our world look like if even 10% of those who claim to be Christian truly lived out their faith, beyond political views, beyond personal comfort?
This week, Josh shares stories of radical faith--some contemporary--where their faith had a big impact in the lives of those around them.
