Finding Church | Discerning Together

Discernment doesn't mean just making good decisions, it means listening and following the will of God in those decisions.  And the church should be doing this all together.

Finding Church | Healthy Church Leadership

There are so many opinions about leadership, what it means, who is best, what it should look like.  But, when it comes to church leadership there is really only one example we're supposed to follow.

Finding Church | An Apprentice to Jesus

Being a disciple is like being an apprentice.  We're called to help each other emulate Jesus in every area of our lives.  

Finding Church | Communion Intermission

Communion is more than a sacred act, it is a way of expressing the Christian life in community.

Finding Church | What Is The Church?

There are nearly 100 different denominations and hundreds of churches in each one.  And they all call themselves "church."  Could they all be the same thing?

Living Kingdom | Centering on Christ

Jesus has invited us into the Kingdom of God, making a way to be with him and to be part of His eternally unfolding story.  But we can't bring anything with us, it's all got to go.

Living Kingdom | Beneath the Surface of the Parables

We can ruin the good by trying to get rid of the bad.

Living Kingdom | Communion Intermission

We take a step away from Matthew today to focus on the ancient practice of Communion and why it is so important for us to do this on a regular basis.

Living Kingdom | Listen To Understand

Not understanding spiritual things doesn't mean we're hopeless.  Asking Jesus to explain IS the point!

Living Kingdom | Demands of Devotion

The people just kept wanting more and more signs that Jesus was the Messiah.  But Jesus wasn't doing miracles to put on a show or make anyone believe.
