We believe that the core of being a follower of God is encountering Jesus not once, but over and over as long as we're alive. This requires us to regularly meditate on Jesus words and contemplate the way He lived. This teaching series is an invitation for you to encounter Jesus again through the "red letters" - which are the words that Jesus spoke recorded in the Bible. Whether you are hearing these words for the first time, or you've learned them years ago, Jesus wants to speak fresh life, conviction, calling, freedom and love over you. And our hope is that each of you would create more space for Jesus, the Word, to dwell in us.

In this miniseries we investigate how we can manage our anxiety - which is only possible because of the resurrection that gives us HOPE!
Today we celebrate Jesus as our risen Lord and King! We also begin a two-part mini series entitled "Anxious" and we will investigate how we manage our anxiety - which is only possible because of the resurrection that gives us HOPE!
What is a church? Well, we can tell you this...it's not a building, it's a group of people who follow Jesus and are introducing Jesus to others. Unfortunately, these days Jesus followers have lost a lot of credibility in our world. The Bible says that people of Jesus should be "light" and "love" which means our churches should be places that attract and provide hope for all people. In this series, we want to explore what the church actually should be...and also what it shouldn't be. And when we truly understand what a church is and why it exists, maybe...just maybe...we can reclaim our "light" and our "love" in a world that desperately needs it.

More than ever, especially around the holiday season, we are longing for home. We long to be seen, invited, cared for, and embraced in our best and worst moments. We hope to encounter people and places where we truly belong. Maybe you have those spaces in your life, or maybe "home" seems ellusive. Yet to everyone, especially those who feel isolated, discarded, or displaced, Jesus invites us to come home to Him for Christmas. What does it mean that God is our home? How does that change the way we experience Him and relate to others? In this series we explore the powerful theme of God's incarnational presence with us, and how He invites us to create space for a weary world that is more desperate for home now than ever.

How do we navigate through a divided world? Our politics, our families, our friend groups, our churches, our communities - our whole world is divided. Should we just give up? Give in? Give more? What wisdom does the Bible have for us to live in a world that seems oppressive, harsh, and unforgiving?In this short teaching series we will look at the ancient book of Daniel for some answers. We think there are some principles for all of us as we strive to live well in our worlds.

Jesus says that the two greatest commandments are to love God with all of our heart and love others as we love ourselves. But, let’s be honest. If we really look closely at our words and actions, we usually don’t love others well.In this teaching series we need to begin to examine our own hearts and really get honest about what it looks like for us to love others well in a world where true love is rare.

People are often encouraged to "find themselves" - especially when they are at a crossroads or are about to embark on a new season of life. The truth is, being a Christian is also a journey of discovery. What is our purpose? How has God wired us? How do we step into our passions and calling?In this teaching series we will consult the Bible as God's wisdom for life. Not only are we attempting to find out what God's purpose is for us, but also how He has gifted us to accomplish His purposes in the world.

The Bible. What is it and what is the story it tells? Should we read it as a textbook, an ancient piece of literature, or is it more than that? Is it still relevant for today and, if so, how? In this series, we're doing a flyover of the Bible from 30,000 feet with the aim of seeing the big picture so that you can understand more about what God has done, is doing, and wants to do. So, ladies and gentlemen, take your seats and let's go!

Do you like it when someone gets straight to the point? Sometimes that’s a great thing! Other times, though, being direct feels harsh and you wish that a person would lessen the direct blow and ease their way into a hard truth. In this teaching series, we look at the book of the Bible called “James”. James is full of incredible wisdom, but it’s very direct and to the point. It’s critical that we hear what James has to say because his wisdom is life altering. Let’s ease into it together!

"I'm not very good at praying." "What does prayer do?" "I'm worried that I'm praying wrong." "Does God speak to me?" "What if I feel stuck when I pray?" "Why doesn't God always answer?" Although prayer is a big part of our spiritual walk with God, we often have a lot of questions or confusion about how to pray and why prayer matters. In this teaching series, we will ask the big questions about prayer and invite God to lead us closer to His heart in the process.

Recently we have discussed the theme of the fruit of the Spirit in our lives, as well as becoming seeds that multiply God's kingdom. Today we look at how repentance is connected to producing this spiritual fruit. All of us struggle through our lives with sin, which is desires or thoughts that contradict God's will and heart. But when we confess our sins, God can heal us and give us strength to overcome. Repentance actually leads us into God's beautiful light, where God redeems the broken places in our lives so that we can be a light for others.
Jesus loves children. And children have the capacity for faith in Jesus. Directing them at a young age just might make all the difference for faith in their life.
The Apostle Paul was not happy. A group of influential leaders and teachers were attacking the very essence of the good news that Jesus brought to the world. In this Hope Church series, "The Gospel Of Jesus", we look at what the gospel is, what it's not, and why it's important to get it right.

We live in a world that is increasingly divided and where communication and compassion seem to be dwindling. We struggle to understand how other people think and act, and we also struggle to understand ourselves. This creates a barrier not only to loving others as God calls us to, but also to cultivating our own relationship with God. This series, which focuses on the Enneagram, is not just about categorizing ourselves within a personality type. First, it will help us to understand how each personality type is designed by God to build up the church and the world. Second, we'll talk about how each personality has weaknesses, but these don't have to control us. Third, we'll discuss how a greater awareness of others can help us love others well, and experience God in profound ways.

You may have heard the expression, "There's a God shaped hole in everyone". The idea is that all of us have experienced a void in our lives, and it leaves us hungry for purpose, hope, and love. We may try to fill that void with many things but ultimately we can only be filled and satisfied through Jesus. But how does Jesus satisfy us? What made people seek out Jesus while He was alive? How did Jesus respond to people? In this series, we explore the life and interactions of Jesus and how people changed as they encountered Him. As we meet Jesus for ourselves and let Him fill us, we will also begin to hunger for more of what matters most to Jesus.

Christians often get a bad rap - and deservedly so. The reason is because many Christians don't fully understand what it truly means to live as Jesus called them to live. In the book of Philippians, a wise older man helps us discover four secrets that will help us all understand - whether you are a Christian or not - the secrets of living a joyful, peaceful, fulfilling, Christian life that is markedly different and extremely compelling.

As we kick off a new year, let's remember that we have our plans, but God may have a different plan!
Do you feel like Christmas is just the same old thing every year? Each year there is less and less magic for you, less and less joy, and less and less peace. Maybe we should all give up on Christmas!
Let’s imagine the Christmas story were a little bit different and let’s see if that may convince you there really is something special in this story.

Wake up. Work Hard. Go to bed. Repeat. Sometimes we find ourselves in a pattern of survival, just trying to get through life or make it past the next crisis. But God says He came to give us life to the full - an abundant life! What does the abundance of God look like, and can it really impact our everyday lives? Could it even change the way we act? Can we experience flourishing even when we are going through difficult or dry seasons? In our new series "Abundance" we will explore these questions and invite God to shift our perspective to see and experience the beauty of His grace, gifts, and goodness.

Deconstruction is a buzzword that means different things to different people. Some view it as a dangerous walk away from faith in God; others view it as a necessary period of wrestling that grows and refines their faith. In this series we'll look at ways people have been deconstructing since Biblical times, and what the church's response might be for people who are wrestling today. We'll also dive deeper into the heart and character of God by asking "What Would Jesus Deconstruct?" Our prayer is that as we humbly ask this question, the Spirit can lead us to reconstruct faith in God as our unshakeable foundation.

Hurry and busyness is the way of the world but it is not the way of Jesus. As we enter into the busy holiday season, we look at what it means to submit to the Way of Jesus in a way that will bring true love, joy, and peace into our lives this holiday season.

In the midst of our everyday work and routine, we tend to avoid dwelling on the idea of death. But the truth is that our lives on earth are finite and God has a powerful perspective for us that we can't appreciate without considering the end of our lives. Walk with us through the graveyard as we seek to understand God's hope, wisdom and redemption for life in light of death.

If we believe God is truly Lord, eventually we have to confront what it means for Him to have authority over our lives. But in the midst of our everyday lives, what does God want us to do and how can we know what His will is? Join us as we explore how we seek God's will, common obstacles to pleasing Him, and how our "yes" to God brings His Kingdom to earth.

What's your "summer vibe"? The beach, nighttime bonfires with friends, lounging in the backyard pool with a drink in hand? Summer is an amazing time to recharge and enjoy life. But as followers of Jesus there is something we need to be careful of.
Resentment is a normal emotion, but if we're not careful we can let it take root in our lives. Take a lesson from a cell phone about how God wants to protect our hearts and address resentment before it creates pain and brokenness in our lives.

Stuck. Uncertain. Wrestling Lost. Doubting. Purposeless. Waiting. Searching for hope. This is what we feel when we go through a desert season, where the comforts we're used to have disappeared and the terrain is harsh and unmapped. We may wonder what we did to end up here, and how we can get out as quickly as possible. Yet the Bible is full of people who experienced the soul-trying weariness of the wilderness and the powerful perspective that can only be found there. Together we seek to uncover the unlikely hope and flourishing in the wilderness.

Yes, we are playfully basing this on the popular TV series, so start searching for your favorite "Friends" memes and one-liners. No, there isn't a Chandler or Ross in the Bible (although there is a Phoebe). However, the Bible is rich with stories and verses about relationships and community. Proverbs 17:17 says, "A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for a time of adversity." Now, more than ever, we need friends to hold us up during challenging times. Over the next four weeks, we'll dive into some interesting friendships in the Bible that will encourage and challenge us to continue living out community and loving others as God calls us to.

Today's Message: Culture Shock
Some have said we are in the midst of a cultural revolution. Whether we are or not, things have been changing and as Christians, it can be hard to keep up with how we should be living. The next few weeks, we will look at the life of several followers of God who lived in an antagonistic culture and what kept them grounded.
