It's conviction not condemnation that brings people to Jesus. Don't cover your sin and shame, bring it to the Lord.

Listen as Nathaniel speaks of the importance of emotions from a biblical standpoint.

We need to keep pursuing our healing. Even if God hasn't healed us yet, there is a promise that one day we will be healed. Jesus sees you in your desperate situation. He doesn't ignore us. And you don't need to be clean to go to Him. Jesus touches those that are unclean, both literally and figuratively. No matter what you have done, Jesus will respond to you.

Our transformation process includes healing. When we say "yes" to Jesus we are given the power to break the generational chains that bind our families. As Christians we do not need to fear the past because the power of the Holy Spirit is far greater than any influence passed down through our family tree. In Christ, we are delivered from the past.

Before His crucifixion Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. We, as the church, are called to clothe ourselves in humility. God will lift us up in His timing. Cast all of your anxieties upon Him, because He cares for you.

So much of forgiveness is about us. When we carry unforgiveness it only affects us, not them. The goal is transformation and to fully get there we must walk through forgiveness.

A big part of Jesus' ministry was to heal all types of afflictions. He is still present and available to us all for healing. All we need to do is ask Him.

We want NCC to be a safe place where people are given space to investigate Jesus, where we don't "push" or "sell" God. We are not a closed club nor are we here to judge humanity. God asks us to be willing to be a place of safety for those around us, even when they don't feel safe. Part of welcoming a stranger is realizing that we have all been strangers.

If you want to grow spiritually, it requires others. When we make life together a priority we make place for the Kingdom to expand. The early church did this very well. One of the ways that we do this at NCC is through small groups.

This week we are unpacking Connect with God. Connecting with God can not be about earthly consequences. God wants our hearts not our behaviors. All connecting with God goes through Jesus. That's why we say the we all need more Jesus.

Connect - Heal - Fulfill is our mission statement as a church. Join us as the NCC staff shares the values that are important to them individually and how that relates to the church mission statement.

The only constant in life is change. As you head into the New Year embrace the change that God is trying to do in your life. We want to be more life Jesus, every day, every month, every year.

Hope is the present belief in a future result. God knows the hurts that you have this Christmas season and He wants to bring you Hope!

Advent is the anticipation of something to come. Listen as Kristi wraps up the Advent season with a message on living in love. What does our culture have to say about love, but more importantly what does God have to say.

What is hope? Hope is a longing for something good with the expectation that God will act? What do you long for this Advent season, for yourself, your family, the world? Are you placing your hope in the wrong things, your job, your children, your spouse? Christ came to bring hope. Hope says; stop focusing on yourself or your circumstances and focus on God.

Have you been able to find peace during this chaotic Christmas season? Peace, doesn't mean that the Lord will take away the chaos and that everything will get better, but rather He will be with you in the midst of your mess. Peace comes in the presence of God. It is a fruit of the Spirit that can not be manufactured. During this season He is inviting you to spend time with Him and find your peace.

Joy is not dependent on an emotion. Happiness has little to do with it. Joy, like gratitude, is a choice not an emotion. What are you allowing to steal your joy?

in this Holiday season where do you find yourself? Are you at peace with finances, family, etc? Or are you wrestling with things? Scientists have discovered that feelings of gratitude can change your brain, unshackle you from toxic emotions. Maybe the Lord is highlighting gratitude as a way to see God's goodness.

Suffering is a part of the human condition. Jesus, who was sinless, also suffered. We were not meant to suffer alone. The God who created the universe created you for a purpose. He knows what you are going through. And guess what, He still has work for you to do.

The enemy only has lies and deception that he can use against us. If we will start by being vulnerable with God, bringing our fears and insecurities into the light the darkness loses its power. If we are willing to confess these things one to another and are willing to be vulnerable with each other we are granted freedom.
