A Complicated Life
The path from here to there is messy. It often doesn't go quite as planned. Our lives can get like that, sometimes: complicated and screwed-up. We tend to think that that somehow disqualifies us from God's plan - that He only uses people who have their act together. But God lifts up unlikely people for a greater purpose, even if their flaws make for a messy journey along the way. Join us as we look at what God did with David's life, and discover what He can also do with ours.
Starting Strong
Most of us are ready to start 2012 with a blank slate. But scripture reminds us that parting of starting a new year off right is looking back at where we’ve been. Baptism is a ritual of new beginnings. In Part 1, we talk about the how Jesus baptism sheds light on how we ought to start a new year. In Part 2, we examine the critical error we often make in starting something new by allowing past experiences to define future possibilities.

Christmas Dismantled
It’s not about the gifts, or the tree, or the stockings. It’s not about Santa, or the eggnog, or the food. Because hiding underneath all of the trimmings and tinsel is the true story of Christmas – the one that changed the world. Join us as we dismantle the distractions of the holiday season, revisit the story of Christ’s birth, and find new meaning in God’s greatest gift.
Multiply
Growth isn’t easy. It takes vision, courage and a willingness to change. But growth is how we develop and its how we impact others around us. As we continue to build our community, God calls us to keep growing, keep learning and multiply the gifts we’ve been given so that we may share them. Join us as we learn what the Bible says about living a fruitful life. One by one, we can make a difference in the lives of others.
