Overheard

Some conversations change everything. What if you could be a fly on the wall during Jesus' most life-altering encounters?

From a secret midnight meeting with a religious leader to a chance encounter at a well, from desperate pleas for healing to a painful conversation between friends - these overheard moments reveal what it truly means to follow Christ.

The Book of Esther

We all love a good fairytale, but not every story is only about princes, princesses, and getting to happily ever after. Like the story of Esther.

Even though Esther is a poor girl who marries a king, her story is so much more than just a fairytale. Esther's story actually challenges us to think about what our faith requires from us when bad things are happening in the world around us – especially when we feel powerless to stop it.

Empty

While the world has changed dramatically since the first Easter, but we still face a lot of the same struggles 2,000 years later.

But the resurrection reminds us that "the worst thing is never the last thing," offering comfort to the sorrowful, hope to the despairing, and the promise that our emptiness can be filled with new life.

The Cross

The cross stands as Christianity's most recognizable symbol, yet its message often seems foolish to the world. How can an instrument of execution represent hope? Why embrace sacrifice over power, death over life, grace over fairness?

Through these apparent contradictions, we discover God's deeper wisdom - a way that transforms how we face temptation, handle suffering, extend forgiveness, and choose love over control. The cross's foolishness reveals God's power to change everything.

The Parables of Jesus

Jesus loved teaching through parables - little stories that make big points. From a dishonest manager who gets praised for his schemes, to a tiny mustard seed that reveals the true nature of God's kingdom, to a shepherd who leaves ninety-nine sheep to chase after one, these stories challenge our assumptions about how God works.

Through these unexpected tales, Jesus shows us that God's ways are different from what we might expect - and often more wonderful than we could imagine.

Shape Up

Just like we make resolutions to improve our physical health, our spiritual lives need intentional care and exercise. This series explores essential spiritual disciplines - from fasting and sabbath rest to praise - that help strengthen our relationship with God.

Like any good fitness plan, growing closer to God isn't about quick fixes but developing healthy, sustainable practices that transform us from the inside out.
