In the series Shades, we are challenging you with the question – What kind of Shades are you wearing?
Last week, we talked about Cracked Lenses, and today, we’re tackling what happens when worry clouds our vision—like trying to see through foggy glasses.
Do you find yourself wrecked with worry way too often? If so, then what do you say? Let’s try to defog the fog!
Today, we embark on a new series titled “Shades,” where we’ll explore how our perspectives shape our lives and faith.
We don’t see life as it is – we see it through the lenses we wear.
Some wear cracked, dirty, or distorted lenses and see everything through the fog of defeat, fear, or regret.
Healthy people wear lenses of promise, where they see everything with faith, hope and trust in God.
The difference isn’t the scenery – it is the clarity and the condition of the lenses.
What kind of SHADES are you wearing?
As we wrap up our series, “The Leap,” today we dive into a powerful conclusion “Heaven’s Freefall.”
Our passage comes from Hebrews 11:32-40, where we find a hall of fame for faith—heroes who leaped into the unknown, trusting God with their futures, even when they couldn’t see the landing.
Just like those heroes of faith, we are called to take daring leaps, embracing the unknown with trust and courage.
Today, we are continuing our series called “The Leap,” and our focus is on “Chains and Great Escapes.” Our scripture comes from Acts 16:16-34, where we witness Paul and Silas in an incredible predicament, bound in chains but ultimately breaking free through faith. To further bring this story to life, we will visit with legendary escapologist, Harry Houdini—an expert at turning impossible situations into remarkable escapes. It will be a great day – get ready to break a few chains and make a great escape!
Today, we continue our series called “The Leap,” and our second message is titled “Flames and Tightropes.” Last week we ‘revved the engines on faith’ and began to explore the importance of taking a leap of faith. This week, we start getting into the specifics of what to expect and what a leap of faith can look like. Each week we have featured a daredevil as a way to illustrate some faith lessons. Last week it was Evel Knievel and we learned that faith might seem crazy to some, until you stick the landing. This week we discover that there is always an element of risk involved and we slide out onto the high wire with Nik Wallenda. It will be fun, life changing, and practical – let’s get started!
