The Bible should be a part of our daily lives, yet it can be pretty intimidating - and sometimes, even offensive to our way of thinking. But God isn't afraid of our questions, and His Word invites us on the  journey of discovery.

Easter was a three day journey. No matter where you're at on yours, God is present with you. It's never too late for a new beginning.

The Gospel is not a paycheck, it's a gift. There is nothing we can do to earn God's grace yet He gave His only Son to save each and every one of us.

There are some crazy stories in the Bible - stories of adultery, betrayal, murder. Even so, though there are always consequences, we see God step in and help people clean up the mess time and time again.

Sometimes the resources and gifts we need for life are buried in the ground. There are answers to my problems and answers to my progress or prosperity that lie beneath the ground...God is saying to you and I, "Just start digging."

We are all broken and there are many examples of brokenness found throughout the Bible. The good news is that God is not afraid of our mess and He is ready to help us on the journey!

We are not strangers to dysfunction. Thankfully, the Bible is full of stories about imperfect people being transformed by the grace of God. When we come face to face with our brokenness, God is ready to walk us to the other side.

We exist to help you move from where you are to where God wants you to be. It's a journey, and our heart is that in the process you walk through four important steps: Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

We all have needs, but there comes a point when we must say "no" so we can say "yes" to the right thing. In part three of "I Can't Even..." we take a look at needy people and how to be strategic in our relationships.

God did not make us to be controlled. He made us to be led, and there's a big difference. On the other hand, it's important for us to realize when we're on the other side and trying to control other people.

Sometimes people who say they're one thing, act like another and it hurts those around them. So what do you do with that? How do we build healthy relationships when we all have our own issues?

A goal without a plan is simply a wish and we see this played out throughout the Bible. God wants you to run to win, and you've got to be intentional about the steps you take along the way! Download the "S.M.A.R.T Goals" handout that goes along with the message here: http://bit.ly/2UnFNVj

What you think matters, and it makes a big difference when you are running to win. Take inventory of what influences your perspective and how that impacts your daily life and the lives of those around you. **The Perspective Video at the beginning of this message is property of Apple.

It's a new year - a time when many people make goals for change in hopes of a brighter future. How do you make those last? You discover your why.

Every good gift comes from God and that includes the dreams He places in our hearts. He has a plan for your life, and when you dare to embrace it, He can do amazing things!

This service opened with a rendition of the song, "White Christmas." While most of us could say we hope for a white Christmas, the holidays are crazy. But, when we focus on Christ, we will discover the real peace and rest He came to give us.

Worship happens everywhere and in many different ways. We worship because God is faithful, but how do we express that kind of gratitude?

Why do you worship? No matter where you're at on your journey, you've experienced God's faithfulness. This is why we worship - Because God never lets us down.

Fear is something many of us deal with. So how do we overcome it? If perfect love casts out fear, how do we apply that to our everyday lives?

Have you ever stood in awe of something in nature? Or perhaps there's a moment in your life that left you standing without words to express your gratitude. It's within moments like these we can discover the essence of true worship. It's so much more than you think!
