Be Thankful

Dates Aired: November 17, 24

Thanksgiving is a time of reflecting on what one has and giving thanks. Yet sometimes our habit is to compare ourselves with others and become fixated on what we don’t have. Jesus calls his followers to a radical commitment to satisfaction and contentment with what we have. It is in Him that we learn to be thankful.

What Do You Want?

Following Christ is a commitment that requires sacrifice. Examine your own heart. Would you be willing to give up all your material comforts in order to follow Christ? What is it you real want out of life?

What is My Reward?

Salvation comes from God and God alone. It is only through believing and following the Lord Jesus Christ that we will find our true reward. Follow Him and be saved. Learn how to be thankful by finding salvation in Christ.

Ordinary People; Extraordinary God

Dates Aired: October 6, 13, 20, 27; November 3, 10

This series highlights the extraordinary ways God works through ordinary people. By the end, you’ll be convinced that God can use anyone, regardless of their circumstances, to accomplish His divine plan.

What Choice Did They Have

God blessed the midwives when they prioritized faithfulness to him even when it required that they disobey Pharoah. Faithfulness to God may require us to ignore what the powerful influencers in our lives tell us to do.

Living for God in a Godless World

Obadiah served God’s people even though he worked in a faithless environment. No matter what environment we find ourselves in, we must serve God’s people faithfully.

Foreigner in the Family

Ruth went from being a Moabite to continuing the Davidic line, which ultimately led to Jesus. Because God includes us in his family, he can do great things through us.

Unshaved, Unwashed, Unleashed

John the Baptist was an ordinary man God used to prepare the world for Jesus. Like John the Baptist, God wants us to prepare the way for people to receive his Son.

No Experience Required

Jesus calls ordinary people to follow him and do extraordinary things for the kingdom of God. God uses any people who will surrender their lives and follow him.

Ordinary People Pointing to an Extraordinary God

Paul wanted the Corinthians to remember that God’s generosity toward them was not based on where they came from or who they were. We must remember that God’s extraordinary grace is a free gift given to ordinary people like us so that his kingdom can grow.

Breakout

Dates Aired: September 8, 15, 22, 29

Many of us are still bound to the past, bound to a thought, or bound by a weakness. But because of Jesus, we no longer have to live in that hopelessness. It’s time to experience a breakout: a sudden emergence out of the grave, darkness and emptiness that hold us back.

Breaking Down

It’s time to break down our old patterns. This message sheds a light on the struggles, the frustrations, and the temptations that keep us from moving forward.

Sizing Up

It’s time to size up your storm and understand that the enemy only attacks what’s valuable. This message reminds us that if we’re going through a storm, there must be something important on the other side.

Happening Here

Suffering doesn’t have to ruin you. Just because you didn’t choose to go through it doesn’t mean you can’t grow through it. This message shows us that God can make you fruitful right where you are.

Working Through

It’s time to work through our weakness and put it into purpose. This message reveals that when it feels like God is pulling apart, it’s because he knows how it’s supposed work together.

In My Eyes: The Book of Judges

Dates Aired: August 11, 18, 25; September 1

This series examines the downward spiral of God’s people in the book of Judges. The book centers around people having a relativism that caused them to do whatever they wanted to do. Through understanding the context, theology, and relevance to our own idolatries, we can see that the only hero in Judges is a loving God who will redeem his wayward people.

Cycle of Destruction

The book of Judges shows that God’s people developed a cycle of sin, slavery, and eventual salvation by God through a judge. We will learn from the Old Testament not to live in cycles of sin and alienation from God.

Get the Point?

One of the earliest judges is Ehud, who saved God’s people from the Moabites. Let us allow God to use us, as God used Ehud, to reveal Christ to the world.

I Don't See the Problem

Judges emphasizes that God’s people did not have a king and did what was right in their own lives. Let us not be people who live our lives in our own eyes and opinions.

Caught In the Drain

Judges ends with the Hebrew people striving to blend worship to God with worship to idols. Let us become aware of our failure and begin to worship God alone.

Stuck: Life In Transition

Dates Aired: July 7, 14, 21, 28; August 4

This series explores characters from the Bible who experienced seasons of transition – the “in-between” trials of life. Job, Daniel, Abraham, Paul and the disciples all experienced times of frustration, pain, suffering, and difficult questions. We too experience these seasons of transition – seasons where we feel like we’re stuck in “the middle” – and it’s vital that we rely on God even when you struggle.

Why, God?

Job lost everything in only a few moments which left him stuck in the pain. He did not lose faith, but this transition did cause him to ask questions of God. He finally learned that even when we don’t know why we are suffering, we should trust God no matter what.

Unstuck By Hope

In exile Daniel never lost hope in God’s plan for his people and his provision in both prosperity and persecution. He did not know why but he focused on how to serve and overcome by faith.

When the Promise Doesn’t Come

Abraham believed in God’s promise and covenant before anything happened in the physical world. He trusted God but was then stuck in waiting. Trust is hard when you are stuck in the waiting room.

Stuck In Expectation

The disciples were challenged by Jesus and had to change the way they saw God and the world. Their expectations of who they thought the Messiah would be left them stuck and almost unable to believe, trust, and follow.

Always Becoming

The apostle Paul went through tremendous hardship in his ministry for Christ. However, he was content and had peace in all circumstances. Always growing, always becoming, always moving to the place he so desperately desired.

The Fight

Dates Aired: June 9, 16, 23, 30

Life is full of moments we wish would last forever – and then, full of situations we wouldn’t wish on anyone. Sometimes life can feel like a fight. A fight to remain faithful, a fight to keep peace, a fight to keep your head above the water. In this series, we are getting our gloves on and learning how to fight. We will discover that our journey is not only worth fighting for, but also, it is by grace that comes through faith that equips us for the fight.

The Battles Choice

What do you do when you’re facing a battle that’s bigger than you? What do you do when that battle chooses you? Take courage you have a friend who knows how to fight! This message reveals that God is on your side and His purpose will prevail in your life.

Wrestling With the Right Time

This message reveals that God has you exactly where He needs you – and if you’ll lean on Him, He’ll give you what you need to get through.

The Upper Hand

Do you want to have the upper hand? This message reveals that victory isn’t always about the weapons we have – it’s how we use them.

Tap Out In

This message reveals that God is waging war with what’s coming against you – because the fruit is coming!

Community Life

Dates Aired: May 5, 12, 19, 26; June 2

This series explores the idea of community life in the church. Through understanding the importance of community, the unity of Christians in Christ, the ethic of community, and the reflection of Jesus to the world, we can see the power and importance of being with other believers in our daily lives.

Created for Community

The early church reflects to us the importance of Christians being together and not isolated. It is in community that we can be the Body of Christ in this world.

The Jesus Experience

Believers are unified in Christ and can experience God together in fellowship and worship. Serving, loving, and living in Community is God’s plan for us.

The DNA of Community

Christian community has a life and ethic formed by virtues that Christ wants us to live out.

Community On Display

The virtue and life of Christian community reveals Jesus in how we treat one another and the outside world. Let’s reflect Jesus to one another, so that the world can see him.

Community: Life on Purpose

We were not meant to walk with Jesus alone, but with a community of people, even in the worst moments of life. Let us learn to walk with each other in good times and bad times.

I AM

Dates Aired: April 14, 21, 28

Even by his own friends and students, Jesus was often misunderstood. Many thought he was leading a political overthrow while others saw him as a complete liar. However, Christ and His victory over eternal death changed everything – including our identity as His child. In this series, we will find out who Christ is and who He is not, who we are and who we are not.

Directed By Defeat

On the day He defeated death, Jesus took a walk with two previously unknown travelers headed in the wrong direction – an unusual way to celebrate. However, in this message, we find out that a lack of God’s presence may actually be a lack in our perception.

Limited By Labels

In this message, we are challenged to not let our labels limit what God is leading us into.

Running By Resources

In this message, we learn that when we don’t have the resources for the fight we’re facing, God’s power is more than enough.

To the Streets

Easter Sunday

Date Aired: March 31

Jesus is the source of resurrection and life. His miracle of resurrecting Lazarus shows Christ’s glory and compassion, points to his own resurrection to come, and offers us an invitation to trust in him. Because God is a God who raises people from the dead, we have hope – not just for our eternal state with God but hope now, in the abundant life God gives. Do you have a secure hope that is unwavering, no matter your circumstances?

Turn: The Heart of Repentance

David trusted in God’s forgiveness and praised God before, during, and after confession. Believers can trust that God will extend forgiveness when our hearts are truly repentant.

Zacchaeus interacted with Jesus and left transformed, confessing and professing a changed life. Believers can trust that God will offer transformation when our hearts are truly repentant.

Reboot

Dates Aired: February 11, 18, 25

Whether it’s the blue screen or rainbow wheel of death, it’s challenging when technology doesn’t work the way it is intended. Sometimes a reboot is what we need to get things back on track before our frustrations get the best of us. Our lives aren’t much different. All of us need a reboot at times. We need to have God restore us to the way He intended, so that we can be who He wants us to be, and do what He has for us to do. During this series, we will see what it takes to reboot our lives in Christ.

Week 1 / The Generous Glitch

The God of your glitches is the God of all grace and He is able to make all grace abound to you. It is in your weakness that He is strong. You have exactly what you need in this season.

Week 2 / Free Space

There are some things in life that bring us comfort – so when something new enters our lives, it can feel very much like a threat. It’s time to embrace what’s new as a blessing from God rather than a threat to your comfort.

Week 3 / The Firewall

Our enemy cannot close a door that God had opened. When God opens a door, nobody can shut it. So, while the enemy may not be able to close doors, he can try to keep us from walking through them.

Better

Dates Aired: January 7, 14, 21, 28; February 4

By word and deed, Jesus teaches what it means to put God first. Have you ordered your life around God, or are you trying to figure out a way to fit him into it?

The Word of God teaches us how to be like Jesus. How much time do you spend studying Scripture versus staring at a screen, and which one do you think is shaping your character more?

The Line

Dates Aired: December 17, 24 (10AM), 24 (7PM)

This three-part Christmas series examines how Christ’s birth changed the entire course of history. We even separate history according to Jesus’ birth (B.C. to A.D.)! Jesus changed the world by entering history as the God-man, and He can change our lives as well.

Part 1 / The Savior Is Born...To Die

Before Christ came into the world, we were captives to sin and deserved God’s punishment. Now that Jesus has come, and paid the price for our sin, we can be free from our guilt and know God personally.

Part 2 / The Savior Is Born...To Redeem

In an ancient world where a person’s worth was based on their family wealth or political station, Jesus changed the entire course of history by coming for all people—equally. The value of a person is now based on the price that God paid for their redemption: the blood of God’s very Son.

Part 3 / The Savior Is Born...To Transform

The breaking between B.C. and A.D. wasn’t just about a birth so we could have a new holiday; it was about a new way of life. We should not have a “Christmas faith,” but a transformed life that shows Jesus’ Lordship every day of the year.

Positioned For the Promise

Date Aired: December 10

The book of Exodus gives us incredible insight into God’s promises. He promises to protect you along the way, position you where you need to be, and prepare you for what is to come. But we can waste His promises if we aren’t willing to walk in them.

Kingdom (Un)seen

Date Aired: November 26

If you feel insignificant or invisible, unappreciated or undervalued, it’s important that you know – your Father sees you. And even though the world only celebrates what is seen, God knows the significance of what is unseen within you. This unseen kingdom operates upside-down from what we know.

Thanksgiving: Celebrating Our Many Blessings

Dates Aired: November 5, 12, 19

This series addresses how we can develop the practice of gratitude and thanksgiving to God, which in turn leads to a life of generosity.

Week 1 / Time to Flex

Thankfulness leads us into the presence of God and is an appropriate response to what God has done in our lives. We can develop a lifestyle of thankfulness by intentionally building a spiritual practice of gratitude and learning to express spontaneous appreciation throughout each day.

From the fullness of our gratitude, we can pour out generosity. As we cultivate thankful hearts for God’s goodness, provision, and presence, generosity will flow naturally from our lives.

From Death to Life

Dates Aired: October 8, 15, 22, 29

He’s molding us, shaping us, moving us from here to there, from poor to rich, from flawed to fulfilled, from death to life. In this series we will journey with our Redeemer through the process of his work to better understand his sovereignty over it all.

Week 1 / The Problem With Your Problem

God knows our deepest needs, and when He answers our prayers in His way, He does more than change our lives – He heals our hearts. Mark records a profound event in Jesus’s life to teach us that, even when our faith is shaken, God is not.

Week 2 / Fruitful Focus

In this message, you will learn how to shift your mind to the only thing you really can control — what you choose to focus on. You can find freedom when choose not to focus on your frustrations, your fears or even the facts. Together, we will find a more fruitful focus.

The greatest pain and the greatest pleasure of your life will be experienced in the context of relationship. So, what’s the secret to having and keeping successful ones?

Week 4 / The Lazarus Lean

When we put our trust in God, we accept we can’t control the outcome and learn to walk patiently through the process. From Lazarus, we can learn how to lean on God and believe that even in disappointment, He is with us – and choose to follow Him even though things aren’t going the way we expected. That’s the life Jesus came to bring.

Rooted: Back to Church

Dates Aired: September 10, 17, 24; October 1

The Church is the Body of Christ in this world. We are given the privilege of being a part of Christ’s work. But so many have slowly fallen away or have never been asked to come. Let this series help you be rooted in the Kingdom and be called back to the church.

Week 1 / Rooted In Sharing

The Good News of Jesus is not meant to be kept to ourselves. The final instruction Jesus gave His disciples was to go into the world and invite others to a saving relationship with God.

Week 2 / Rooted In Faith

The fruit of our lives can be directly correlated to the roots of our lives. On what do we build our lives? A life built on Jesus overflows with purpose and meaning. The Bible compares this kind of connection to a vine with many branches.

Week 3 / Rooted In Prayer and Study

Spiritual growth is paved with passionate prayer and intentional study of Scripture. These are the avenues given to us to know and trust the heart of God. The more we spend time reading and praying, the more our lives are transformed by the power of God.

A disciple is called to call others. As disciples we are supposed to disciple others on their journey. But we must remember who or what are you being discipled by?

We are to serve Jesus at and through our job. Treat every person at work – whether a coworker or an angry customer – as if Jesus was in them or standing right behind them.

Week 3 / Mission Central

Your home can be a headquarters for local mission. Take a tangible step this week to get to know one of your neighbors.

Week 4 / Gone Viral

Our use of technology can be a witness to our faith. Does your use of technology help people learn about Jesus—or alienate them from him?

Week 2 / What's Your Weight?

How do you measure? Through status? Through results? Through opportunities? Often, we measure life by what we have, but we should be measuring by what weight those things carry. You’ve got a power that goes beyond your performance.

Week 3 / Ixnay Your Anxiety

When anxiety invades our minds, running is often our reaction. But let’s learn how to lean on God in those moments. Let’s discover what is at the root of our anxiety and learn how to resist it instead of running from it.

Week 4 / Facing Your Faith

Have you just started accepting disappointment as the norm without questioning if God is at work?

It shows us how to have unwavering faith in the midst of life’s greatest let-downs.

The Kingdom

Dates Aired: February 5, 12, 29, 26

The term “kingdom of God” is often heard in church, yet many Christians would probably admit to a lack of understanding about what it is, how it functions, and what their role is in it. Over the next four weeks, this series will speak to those questions and more.

Week 1 / The Kingdom of God is Like…

In this passage, Jesus describes the kingdom of heaven as he sees it and as how we ought to see it. We can begin to understand what the kingdom of God is like if we carefully examine how Jesus describes it.

Week 2 / Let Your Kingdom Come

Jesus has provided us with his idea of what should happen within the kingdom of God. We must realize what Jesus wants to happen within the kingdom of God, so we can begin to enact that plan.

Week 3 / His Kingdom On Earth

As members of the kingdom, we have the responsibility for being the reach of God’s kingdom on earth. God adopted us into the kingdom; we should live in a way that recognizes and responds to that adoption.

When you follow God, you can trust that he will provide. While following Jesus, there will be times when it gets hard. But God will provide what you need for the journey.

Week 3 / Houston, We've Got a Problem

Expect challenges in the journey of faith but remember that the victory belongs to God. Do trials and tribulations make you give up or help you rely on Jesus? Let’s use our struggles to be reminded that Jesus provides the victory.

Know that you do not journey alone. We are the church, and the church is the Body of Christ. Jesus has promised never to leave you or forsake you—even if you can’t see him.
