    Ripple Effects
    Feb 23 2025
    Jesus passes through a region called Samaria and stops to have a brief conversations with a woman who had come to get water from a well. The conversation takes a lot of twist and turns, but ultimately this woman comes to believe in Jesus as the Messiah. In addition, the text tells us that many other Samaritans come to believe in Jesus because of this woman. You might say that this brief conversation has ripple effects that change many people's lives.

  • Pointing People To Jesus

    Pointing People To Jesus
    Feb 9 2025
    John writes his gospel so that people will know Jesus. In chapter 1 he uses three different titles for Jesus... Jesus is "the Word, the Light, and the Lamb." Each of these titles has a way of pointing people to Jesus and helping us better understand who he is. At the end of the day, our calling is the same as John's... to know Christ and point people to him.

  • Biblical Belonging

    Biblical Belonging
    Feb 2 2025
    As Christians, the New Testament says that we "belong" to Jesus and that we "belong" to the church. But what does it mean to really belong? So many believers settle for simply visiting or attending rather than belonging. In other words, so many people settle for less than what God wants for them. Why do we settle for less than God has for us and how can we move towards belonging?

    Transcendence: Where's the Magic?
    Jan 26 2025
    The biblical world was filled with spiritual energy and activity, and our world isn't. Or at least, it doesn't seem to be. Why? Because we live in a secular age in which we've forgotten how to expect to experience a living God who shows up in our lives.

  • Wisdom: (Not) Kicking Against the Goads

    Wisdom: (Not) Kicking Against the Goads
    Jan 19 2025
    We want to be a church that diligently seeks wisdom because we live in a foolish age. We're the smartest people to ever live, but we are very foolish because we've untethered ourselves from ancient sources of wisdom in the mistaken belief this is liberation, but it's madness. True wisdom is not being your own authority, but submitting yourself to the authority of God mediated through Scripture.
