Your marriage matters to God because you matter. You get married to reach the finish line of loving and being with our spouse for the rest of your life. Not committing adultery is not a high standard, but it is a beginning step in lots of sequential steps that can take you exactly where you do not want to end up; or you can shun adultery and take alternative steps to get you right where God wants you and your marriage.

The Big Ten | The Marriage You’ve Always Wanted

We see God's motives for commandments through Jesus' teachings. When it comes to the sixth commandment, it moves deeper than a prevention of physical murder to capping emotional harm. Earthly judges view your actions, but God judges your heart.

The Big Ten | How to Keep Your Cool | Reza Zadeh

Continuing in the series on God's commandments, we now look at the fifth commandment; this is probably a familiar directive and it instructs us to honor our parents (and other authorities). Unfortunately, as we grow up it is easier to default to our own selfish nature, rather than honoring our God by following this instruction. However, when we learn to submit, we are freed from selfishness.

The Big Ten | The Power of Submission

Sabbath is a gift from God encouraging us to rest and recharge. God doesn't need our worship and instead provides worship as a way to remember who and whose we are. We should lean into the rhythm of remembering our God and restoring our strength through praise of Him.

The Big Ten | Forget Balance, Find Rhythm

Week three of our series focuses on the third commandment. Against God's instruction we often use God's name to justify our personal agenda and increase our own credibility. Instead we need to be someone who doesn't need to justify your actions in an effort to prop up your reputation.

The Big Ten | Be the Person Your Dog Thinks You Are

We are wired to worship and as we move through life, we must make sure to keep our attention on God and not give our worship to other "things" that are not worthy of our focus. We can strengthen our relationship with God by following his commandments and this week we are guided through the pitfalls of modern idolatry.

The Big Ten | Letting God Loose | Reza Zadeh

What does it look like when we embrace life as God is directing us through his commandments? Picking the right priority is the only way to lasting peace and God shows that he should be your priority; reminding us of what he's already done before laying out the laws.

The Big Ten | Picking Your Priority

God wants to satisfy you at the deepest level. We pray that you can take a moment to thank God for the FEAST available to you by His grace.

Are You Hungry? | 2 Kings 7:1-16 | Dan Hash

Being ready matters when we're waiting expectantly for Jesus' return. Perfection doesn't matter, but progress does. It is all about finding and taking our next step of becoming and being more like Jesus. No matter where you are in the journey, there is always another step of obedience in moving forward.

The Next Step | Craig Smith

This week's sermon concludes our series on Galatians with the vital message that we as his followers do not need to behave a certain way to belong to God. Instead, our belonging to God and being a part of his family comes solely from the truth that because of what Jesus did on the cross we are new creations IN CHRIST.

Last week addressed pitfalls of self-centeredness and this week Craig presents its counterpart, other-centeredness. He lays out practical applications of doing good for others as a way to point them to God's goodness. You will be rewarded with a life that is fundamentally different from what you'll get from a self-focused life.

Those who belong more to themselves than to God will not inherit the kingdom of God without the help of the Holy Spirit. Fortunately the Spirit can guide us from self-centeredness to other-centered. Check out this week for some tips on changing your course.

Live Free | Finding Freedom from the Self-Destruction of Self-Centeredness

Freedom is supposed to be a big part of the Christian life, yet many of us struggle to actually experience or allow others to experience it. Freedom is something we have to intentionally fight for every day. Join us as we learn four powerful weapons that will help us fight hard to live free.

Live Free | Fighting for Freedom

Most religions consist of advice of how to journey closer to God. Christianity provides the Good News that God moved close to us through the sacrifice made by his son, Jesus. 

Live Free | The Choice | Scott Ridout

God wants something for you, not from you. Grace is countercultural. You are invited to leave checklist-Christianity behind and be embraced by God's grace. God wants a relationship with you; he wants your heart and not your works.
