Oct 10, 2021A Faith from Here to EternityBy: Troy BurnsSeries: What if God Was One of Us?In today's passage from our 1 John series, where Jesus emphasizes the necessity of being "born again," we discover that to see Jesus and His truth means more than observing what He did or hearing what He said; it means a change of identity. And our new birth changes everything. Our old lives are gone and we learn to walk in a new life. NOTE: The last few minutes of sermon audio are lost due to a technical difficulty.

Sep 26, 2021The Only One Who Knows Our HeartsBy: Troy BurnsSeries: What if God Was One of Us?Continuing in our series through the Gospel of John, Troy explains that although Jesus knows every single one of our thoughts, words, and actions, He died on the cross for us anyway. He took the punishment that we deserved and put it on Himself. And it’s critical that we understand the love and grace that God has shown us, despite our brokenness, because we need to show love and grace to other people, despite their brokenness.

Sep 5, 2021Come Back So We Can Leave AgainBy: Troy BurnsSeries: StandaloneIn our final "standalone" message of the summer, Troy describes how we “come back” each Sunday, just so we can “leave again” by going out into the world, shining our light in the darkness, and sharing the good news of Jesus. Our world needs us; our city needs us; and our neighborhood in the Shadle area needs us.

Aug 29, 2021Give Me a Break (or Help Me Escape)By: Troy BurnsSeries: StandaloneSometimes, we need physical rest and the chance to focus on God and gain spiritual strength. Other times, there's a mental or emotional rest that we need just as much, if not more, than physical rest. And that's when we need to get out of our own heads and just do something.

Aug 22, 2021No, Please, You Go FirstBy: Troy BurnsSeries: StandaloneLeft to ourselves, we tend to put ourselves first and do as little as possible for others. But as Troy explains, we all know, deep down, that there’s a problem with that way of living, and we want to be better than that. What if we thought about others more than ourselves? What if we showed grace and kindness to the people who disagreed with us? What if we did as much as possible for them? What if we said, essentially, “No, Please, You Go First.”

Aug 15, 2021Stay in Your LaneBy: Bud GothmannSeries: StandaloneThe Bible is full of stories with people who stayed (or did not stay) in their lanes when it came to following God's will. In today's message, one of our elders, Bud, shares how we can stay in our lanes as followers of Jesus. He also reminds us that sometimes, instead of staying in our lanes, we actually need to get into our lanes.
