Over the past several weeks, we have spent time considering who God is, what He has done, and what He is continuing to do. We have considered who we are in light of God's faithfulness. This week, the conversation shifts from simply considering these things to responding to these things. To have a relationship with God, we have to move past simply considering it. We have to respond to it.

In the second to last conversation of this series, we are invited to consider God's faithfulness in our lives as well as God's discipline in our lives.
We can easily be all about God's faithfulness but not have the same attitude when it comes to God's discipline. We see discipline as something to be rejected at all costs. What if there was a reason behind God's discipline? What if discipline from God was not evidence of God's anger or frustration but God's love and presence? All of these things are addressed as we continue to walk our way through Nehemiah 9.

oppositionAs we come back into our series through the book of Nehemiah, Pastor Aron invites us to consider the strategies that can be seen in Nehemiah 6. Why take time to have this conversation and consider these strategies?
-
Encounters with the enemy are part of the journey as a Jesus follower.
-
The enemy likes to make it personal.
-
The enemy is not unbeatable.
The enemy that influenced the opposition against Nehemiah then is the same enemy that influences the opposistion against Jesus followers today.

As we continue walking through the book of Nehemiah, Pastor Aron invites us to consider what could happen if we decided to let God in.

What will you choose?

During this conversation, we are challenged to consider our beliefs on the person and place that holds ultimate authority over our lives. In 2023, this can become very blurred because the person and place of ultimate authority are often changing.

In this closing message of the series, Pastor Aron invites us to consider the life of John the Baptist. The Bible spends significant time telling us who we are.

While there are many unknowns that we experience in this life, one thing is known. Jesus is present and waiting for us in the unknown!
Many of us experience moments where we find ourselves asking the question of who we are. It can be easy to find ourselves in an identity crisis.

In this opening message of the series, Pastor Aron invites us to consider God's consistency and the moments we can experience it amid our inconsistency.
Pastor Aron invites us to consider a second bold declaration in the second conversation of this mini-series! After we declare "God, search my heart", we should expect God to speak and reveal things that need to be changed within us. With this thought, we should boldly declare "God, change my heart"! A changed heart is only made complete in an encounter with Jesus.
In this opening conversation of a two-week series called "Bold Declarations", Pastor Aron encourages us to consider the first of two bold declarations. In this message, we are encouraged to ask "God, search my heart". When we do this, three things can happen!

In the second conversation of this series, Pastor Aron invites us to consider a second reason why we might be led to display a false version of ourselves. In this conversation, Pastor Aron speaks on the universal experience of shame. Would you believe that the experience of shame does not have to keep you down? What if things would be different if we offered our shame to Jesus?
In today's culture, we are constantly pressured to portray a filtered or fake version of ourselves. For whatever reason, most of us have fallen to that pressure in both our online presence and real-world presence. In this series, we will address different reasons why we allow ourselves to fall under this pressure.
In this opening conversation, Pastor Aron invites us to consider that one of those reasons is that we have a fear of people. While it is okay to have a fear for people, it is not okay to have a fear of people according to God's Word. LIsten in as Pastor Aron expounds on this idea.
In the closing message of this series, Pastor Aron encourages us to consider how we approach our dating relationships and even marriages.

In this week's message, Pastor Aron gives a message entitled "Thankful". For most people, Thanksgiving is the one time of year that they are intentional about being thankful. Thankfulness is not meant to be seasonal. In this week's message, Pastor Aron leads a conversation about what could happen if our life was marked by thankfulness.
In this closing message, Pastor Aron leads a conversation about how we have been given a call to persevere. Despite being a time and culture that tells us we should quit and walk away when things get tough, Jesus tells us differently. In fact, He tells us to keep going no matter what. Why? The Gospel was not meant to stop with you.
