Evan begins a new series on the Holy Spirit by exploring how we can gauge whether we are living in the spirit or in the "flesh".

The Church doesn't have a mission, the mission has a church. This week Evan wraps up our series "What is the Church" by discussing 4 things that will help the Church be focused more fully on participating in God's mission of redeeming all creation back to him.

Why do we eat small pieces of bread and drink little sips of grape juice every single week? What is communion, why does it matter, and why do we continue to practice this ancient ritual? Evan gives us the history and the continued importance of the Church's participation in what we call Communion.

What is Baptism? Why do churches dunk or sprinkle human beings with or in water? Is there a point to it? Is it necessary in order to get to Heaven? Evan digs into our practice of Baptism, why we do it, and the importance of making yourself vulnerable by getting soaking wet in front of your friends. 

Why do we gather together and worship every Sunday? Does it not seem redundant? Songs, prayer, sermon, communion, more songs. Every. Single. Week. So what's the point? Why do we do this? Evan goes into the great importance that gathering together holds. Join us as we discuss the reason for Worship. 

Today Evan addresses some of the issues surrounding the current cultural climate in the wake of George Floyd's death.
