We're at the point in Judges where the leaders haven't yet gone off the rails. In this message we meet Deborah and Jael, two women who lead Israel to victory with God’s guidance. It's a great lesson in trusting God's promises and making the mos
What if God used your weakness for His glory? Those traits that we think hold us back can actually be used for good if we let go and let God fight our battles.
The time of the Judges is a period in Israel's history that is marked by cycles of sin, repentance, deliverance, and peace. Over and over, God's people stray from Him, but God never gives up on them. A series of leader (i.e., the "Judges") brin
Ever feel like you're searching for meaning that you can't find? It's an age-old quest. The Book of Ecclesiastes is all about the journey of finding meaning in what matters—and what doesn't. We're finishing out this series with a lesser known s
It's time for a class in Grace 101. We talk a lot about grace around here. It's such an important part of being a follower of Jesus. But what is grace? And what is it not? This message takes a close look at this concept that is so foundational
This message addresses some weighty topics through the song “Pride (In the Name of Love).” Did you know it was inspired by civil rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr.? It deals with issues of loving your enemies and praying for those who pers
Do you ever find yourself asking questions you have no answer to or longing for an answer to the question, "Why am I here?" Existential questioning is a universal experience, and U2 has captured that feeling in the very aptly named song "I Stil
The Faith of the Next Generation Matters Now. It's one of Messiah's five core values, and in this teaching Hannah Lang, our Director of Kid's Ministry, joins Pastor Jim to issue a challenge. It's not enough to learn about our faith, we must als
Heard the news today? War is all around us. Even though we live in nation at (relative) peace, we cannot escape the conflict that defines our lives—the internal struggle to do what is right when it's so easy to do what it wrong. "Sunday Bloody
Could you use some encouragement and hope right about now? U2’s songs have maintained their relevancy decade after decade because they speak to our longings and needs. Whether its the words or just the melody, there is something timeless about
Rainbows symbolize the promise God made with His people to never send another flood. Pastor Jim notes that a rainbow reminds us that all storms eventually end.
Of all the bad boys we've looked at, the crowd of people calling for Jesus's crucifixion is the one most of us would have been a part of. It's too easy for us to be persuaded into action by others with an agenda, but there is a way to guard our
We don’t know much about the Centurion in charge of Jesus’s crucifixion, but we do know that he saw what others didn’t—that Jesus was the Son of God. In the course of doing his job, he was able to come that realization and be forever changed by
Jesus offers salvation to all! Even at the end of his life, the repentant thief recognized Jesus as the Savior and asked for His forgiveness. It’s really that easy.
Pontius Pilate has gone down in history as the person responsible for sending Jesus to the cross. Though he knew Jesus was innocent of the charges against Him, he gave into the crowd demanding blood. He ceremoniously washed his hands and absolv
Our faith tradition doesn't emphasize giving anything up for Lent (though it's certainly a great spiritual exercise!), but being a follower of Jesus does require that we loosen our grip on our worldly idols to grow closer to our Savior. Being
Caiaphas was the high priest during Jesus's ministry. He refused to see Jesus for who He really was in order to keep his grip on power. He had so many chances to recognize the Messiah, but Caiaphas couldn't contain the chaos around him. Where d
Our God is the God of abundance, not scarcity. He has a purpose for that abundance, and in this message we're looking at the many ways God is blessing Messiah to be a light to others in our community. It's a day of celebration!
When it comes to giving your treasure to God, who do is your role model? In the Bible, there is some guidance, and this message looks closely at one particular example. Watch and learn what living out the spiritual discipline of generosity lo
Do you often wish that life was just a bit more simple? We can all envision a life of leisurely downtimes that don't involve checking things off a "to-do" list, but it feels so out of reach. On Sunday, Pastor Jim will demonstrate that a slower
Prayer is a spiritual discipline you may feel like you've got a good handle on. Jesus constantly models prayer and even gives us the words to pray to our heavenly Father. This Sunday, we're going to challenge you to relearn what you know about
Think you know what it means to "sabbath"? You might be surprised to discover what you don't know about this spiritual discipline. In Exodus, God commands it of His people—for our own good! Learn more in this message and discover practical ways
How great would it be if values like rest, prayer, simplicity, and generosity defined our life today? Unfortunately, we're more than likely living with feelings of busyness, loneliness, overwhelm, and a mindset of scarcity. But it doesn't hav
It's kind of crazy to think that a lowly baby in a manger would inspire the frenzy that characterizes the Christmas season. From a town of no consequence came a man who changed the course of history and gives us everlasting life in His name. In
Less can certainly be more when it comes to celebrating Christmas. In a culture of "more," we should stop and consider the impact of our actions on others who might not share the same beliefs—or find Christmas a day of joy. In this time of ex
