CONTROVERSIAL FAITH

Living in Truth in a World of Doubt

Our hope is that these teachings strengthen you, inspire you, and give you a vision for following Jesus more passionately and faithfully..

31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples.

Life without Lack

Learning to live in peace, security & contentment.

August~September 2025

Psalm 23
1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

BEING HUMAN

What Does It Mean to Be Human?

June/July 2025

On the first few pages of scripture, we find what is so easily overlooked — humans were designed to work, rest and take care of the world.

Life is not about just about survival, retirement (or FIRE); it’s about making something meaningful ー even out of the ordinary.

As Tim Keller said "Work is rearranging the raw material of God's creation in such a way that it helps the world in general, and people in particular, thrive and flourish.”

During this teaching series, we’re going back to the Genesis story of a man, a woman and the garden of Eden, as we ask the discover what it means to be human.

Join us as we discover the Genesis design for work, rest, and the art of being human.

If you’ve ever wondered “What am I here for?” ー this series is for you.

Genesis 1:26 26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

It is Written

Jesus model for fighting temptation

March~April 2025

Most christians don't know scripture.
More and more followers of Jesus in the west don’t read it, don’t now how to read it, don’t even like it, and frankly, take issue with it.
So why do we follow the Bible? Because we follow Jesus.
He is our authority, but he has mediated his authority through the Bible.
And on its pages we discover the map to the life that Jesus has on offer.

Mathew 4
1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil

Unforced Rhythms of Grace

How to follow Jesus in our time and place through seven essential practices we see from the life of Jesus.

January~February 2025

Following Jesus isn't a one-off decision but is a lifestyle of living the way Jesus lived.

Matthew 11
28-30 “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

The ways the early disciples followed Jesus were through:

  • Scripture
  • Prayer, Fasting & Solitude
  • Community & Hospitality
  • Service
  • Generosity & Simplicity
  • Outreach
  • Sabbath

Dallas Willard ”Spiritual formation is character formation. Everyone gets a spiritual formation. It's like education. Everyone gets an education; it's just a matter of which one you get.”

Message from the Mountains

The Jesus Guide to an Up-side Down Kingdom (Mathew 5-7)

August~November 2024
The greatest sermon, given by the greatest and most influential teacher in all of human history.
It’s Jesus’ manifesto for a whole new way to be human in the kingdom of God. 
This sermon is Jesus’ guide to living life in God’s upside-down kingdom - a confronting vision of a new way to be human - reorienting of our lives around the rhythms of grace.
As we go through this teaching, you might conclude Jesus’ path makes no sense - and you would be right, at least in the eyes of our current culture.
Yet Jesus offers a better way - the life we want but struggle to attain.
As we pay close attention to his perspectives, we’ll find ourselves living in the freedom that the world can’t give, or take away.

Matthew 20
16 “So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

Emotionally Healthy Church

Because it's impossible to be spiritually mature, while remainig emotionally immature.

June~July 2024

It’s impossible to be spiritually mature, while we remain emotionally immature. We’ve all done it:
-avoided healthy conflict for temporary peace
-ignored or suppressed emotions
-run from what God wants us to work on
-lived a hurried life without boundaries
-repeated the same mistakes over again

Throughout this series we’ll be sharing Biblical principles to experience “beneath the surface” transformation, not just Sunday-only “surface level” changes.

As we experience God’s transformation at work in our lives, I believe that our church as a whole will also experience the same healthy transformation.

Philippians 4
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

I Am

The Name & Nature of God

April~May 2024
In Exodus, God appears to Moses at the burning bush and names himself, “I Am who I Am.”

In the Gospel of John, Jesus draws on this story in Exodus and gives us seven names to call him, seven “I Am” statements.

Throughout this series, we will be looking at who Jesus is through the lens of each “I Am” statement.

Exodus 3:13-14
13 Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?”
14 God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’”

Financial Freedom

God’s Guide to Building Wealth Without Stress

February~March 2024

The Bible definitely doesn’t shy away from talking about money. In fact, Scripture includes 2,500 verses about handling money and possessions.

Proverbs 10:22 The blessing of the Lord brings wealth, without painful toil for it.

Those 2,500 verses give us a blueprint and teach us God’s ways of handling money. And here’s the thing about God’s ways of handling money: They work. Every time.

Deciding to follow what the Bible says about money management will mean you’ll never have to worry about money again. And beyond that, you’ll build wealth so you can live out your dreams and be outrageously generous.
