What If We Don't Have Enough?

What if...
Worry and anxiety can weigh us down. Often we are afraid that we won't be prepared or cared for if something happens. What if we run out of money? What if I can't get this thing I need to thrive or be happy or feel safe? 
Today we see what Jesus teaches when it comes to worry and concern for our future. I really enjoyed this message, and I hope you will too! 

Are Your Eyes Good?

For part 2 of this section where Jesus talks about money and possessions we look at this riddle Jesus gives us. Jesus talks about having good eyes or healthy eye, and bad eyes or evil eyes. What does that means?!? Jesus also gives this well known statement, "you cannot love both God and money."
 
Tune in to learn how to see the world in a healthier way. 

Are You Investing in the Right Places?

In the book of Matthew Jesus tells us not to store up treasures on earth, because these treasures can't be trusted. Instead, store up heavenly treasures. What does that mean? What are heavenly treasures and how do we store them up?
That's what we will explore in today's teaching!

"Do not lead us into Trials.."

Does God lead us into situations where we face temptation? What is Jesus talking about here? Join us as we conclude our look at the Lord's Prayer. "Do not lead us into a time of trials, but deliver us from the evil one."

The Lord's Prayer. What does it mean to forgive?

It can be hard to forgive people! It is easy to nurse a grudge or resentment. But Jesus invites us to forgive others, and even says that we will not experience the full forgiveness of God unless we forgive others. 
But what does it mean to forgive? Does it mean people get off the hook for their actions? Not necessarily. Tune in this week to learn what it means to forgive someone. 

The Lord's Prayer Part 3. Give Us Bread Daily?

This week we begin the 2nd half of the Lord's prayer, found in Matthew chapter 6. "Give us today our daily bread." What does Jesus mean? Are we supposed to get literal bread from God every day? 
Tune in as we learn about trusting God and growing in gratitude for everything we have.

The Lord's Prayer Part 2, Making the World a Better Place

Today we look at the first half of the Lord's prayer. In the first half we are invited to call God Father, we declare that we want God's name to be known as Holy, and we want God's rule to take place here on Earth as it is in Heaven. Join us as we explore this special prayer given to us by Jesus.

The Lord's Prayer, A Habit that Forms US

Today we being looking at the Lord's Prayer. This special prayer has been cherished by Christians since the earliest days of the church. It is found at the very center of the Sermon on the Mount. Today we begin this section by looking at the prayer from above. How did it function in the life of the early church? What can we learn from it today?

Be a Light. With Lauren Steinhauer

This week we are happy to have Lauren Steinhauer bring our message. Lauren is a young person with a heart for God and seeing others grow in their faith. She leads us into the beginning of Advent by reminding us of the light we carry with us into the world.

Ways of Honoring God

Today we look broadly at Matthew chapter 6. Here Jesus talks about 3 ways of practicing devotion to God that were common in his time; giving, prayer, and fasting. We have similar practices today that help us connect with God. Listen in to learn about ways we can honor God in today's world, and hear Jesus' warning about miss-using practices for our own gain.
