Christmas Stories Series
It is truly the most wonderful time of the year. It is packed with moments and memories that change our life forever. These stories of Christmas become part of our story in life. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus this year, we take some time and consider the life changing stories of Christmas.
End of the World as We Know It Series
Now if we can be honest, it has been one wild and wacky year. It seems like one thing after another has happened and just when you thought it could not get any stranger, it did. On top of that, we have just come off of an election season and depending on how you voted, you are either elated or depressed. In some ways we wonder if we are living in the end times. Brace yourself, it is about to get even stranger because we are going to jump into a four week series based on the Book of Revelation called – The End of the World as we Know it.
The Haze of Fear Series
Have you ever been afraid? What is it that you are afraid of? Everyone in the life has experienced fear, that is not unexpected. Left unchecked, fear can become like a virus that spreads, infects us, and causes us to miss out on the best part of living life. The great news is that you don’t have to face fear alone, as a matter of fact, God has some answers for you when you face fear. This series we blow through the haze of fear with some real life practical advice on how to make our lives more successful where we don’t have to be paralyzed by fear.
For the Love of God Series
Everyone worships something. In our culture the things that we worship are the things that begin to shape us and define us. There is nothing new about that, it has been happening for generations. But if we are a follower of Jesus Christ, then as we worship Him we begin to understand the depth and reality of how good He is and how deep His love really is. In this series, we get a chance to see in an up-close and personal way how much He loves us and how that love changes us. If we get it right, we discover that we are driven and motivated to do what we do for the love of God.
Pandemic Pandemonium Series
If you were to read the definition of “pandemonium” it would read “a wild or noisy disorder or confusion” and then be defined as “an uproar in a chaotic situation”
Unless you have been living under a rock or been quarantined without power you are very aware of the global pandemic that has disrupted the lives of most people one way or another. This series allows us to wander into the uproar in the chaos of our culture and tackle the real life questions with some real world answers.
The bulk of this series will revolve around 2 different Psalms, both written long ago but somehow manage to capture the mood, the hurt, the longing and the need we have today as we try to make sense of it all. We need help, it is pandemonium, and if the chaos is not enough add a little corvid craziness to the mix. The great news is that God is right beside you, where He has always been, and is ready to help you.
