Area 10 Faith Community Area 10 Faith Community

Deep inside each of us, there is a sense that we need each other. Even those of us who act like we don’t need anyone still need community! We are not designed to live our lives by ourselves; We all need community. In this message, we will look at how hardwired that need is and at some steps to find meaningful connections.

Why are we so restless? Why does it seem like we never have enough? —Enough money, time, rest, friendships, etc.? Maybe restlessness is useful to us. Maybe it points us to deeper truths about how and why we were created. In this message, we will look at the idea of restlessness and how, like a constellation in the night sky, it can point us to God if we pay attention to it.

For thousands of years, constellations in the night sky have been used to tell stories, convey meaning, and help travelers on their way. This series explores how God's design of nature, relationships, trials, and triumphs speak to the reality of God and Biblical truth. Just like the individual stars that make up a constellation, God uses these various aspects of life to give us a fuller picture of Him and our purpose.

Every now and then, it's helpful to reevaluate our commitments. Do we actually want all of the things we signed up for? Are we still "all in" on this routine—this relationship—this commitment? In this message, we wrap up our RE:DO series and look at some very challenging things Jesus said to his followers about commitment as we reconsider our commitments of faith.

What do you do when your love for something (or someone) has grown cold? What can you do when it feels like those embers of a once-blazing fire have died out? Is there any hope for a return of that spark that you once found so exciting?

Christ gave you a new chance: a do-over on your life, a chance to make things right. But where do you start? In this message, we will examine Jesus' countercultural teaching that challenges us to pull out of "business as usual" in American life and reorganize our priorities.
