FAN OR FOLLOWER

AUTHORITY IN ACTION
Authority is an interesting thing. The person in charge can change in an instant. One second one person is in charge - then someone with more authority walks into the room. There's many ways this can happen for people, but God never experiences this. His authority is absolute, and for us that's a good thing. Listen as Pastor Jeff Mueller leads us through this message on the blessing of God's authority. |

KINGDOM FAMILY
Family, background, upbringing all have an immense impact on our lives. There are certain things that are true of each one of us because of who our family is.

The list goes on in numerous directions. Jesus teaches that certain things are true of those who are part of His family, and through His sacrifice on the cross you have an invitation to be part of that.

THE TOMB

JESUS + Nothing
Legalism is a major opponent to the Gospel in our culture.

|

MY WILL OR THY WILL?
One particularly difficult passage to study is the time Jesus prayed in the Garden, asking for "the cup" to be taken from Him.

On the contrary, we hope studying this passage takes us to a deeper understanding of Jesus' love for us, a better understanding of our own sinfulness, and a greater appreciation for our salvation. Scripture: Mark 14:32-42 |
|
SURPRISE EVIL WITH GOOD
In an era of "cancel culture," being self-aware of our personal response to evil is becoming increasingly important. Jesus called Christians to be a light in a dark world. Are we being that light? Are we joining the darkness? Are we condemning rather than loving other with the Gospel. Check out this message as we talk about the illegal trial of Jesus and how to surprise evil with good. Scripture Mark 14:53-65 |
