For Unity
As we kick off this new teaching series, Pastor Brent explores Jesus' prayer for unity among believers in John 17, unpacking the concept of "What Would Jesus Pray?" Drawing parallels to the "What Would Jesus Do?" movement, Brent challenges the church to emulate Jesus' fervent desire for His followers to be unified in their mission of helping others find and follow Christ. Despite differences, Brent encourages choosing humility, patience, and preserving the hard-fought unity that serves as a powerful testimony to the world.

From Old to New
Without the resurrection, our faith is useless. In order for Jesus to pull off the greatest of all rescues, He needed to die AND rise again. Thankfully, He did (!), and He offers to take all that is old and make it new.

From Fear to Peace
Pastor Brent explains that Jesus came to provide three types of peace: permanent relational peace with God, fellowship peace (that can be disrupted by sin), and situational peace amid difficult circumstances--which is the hardest to attain. Brent encourages us to persistently pray and remind themselves of God's promises in order to receive the situational peace that Jesus offers.

From Aimlessness to Purpose
As we continue this year's Easter series, Pastor Brent reminds us that Jesus came to rescue us not only for eternal life, but also to give us purpose and meaning in our present lives. He encourages us to find our personal "zeal point" that aligns with our gifts and God's leading. Embracing this purpose brings confidence, anchors us through difficulties, and leads to a vibrant, fulfilled faith.

Darkness to Light
As we kick off our Easter teaching series, Pastor Andy draws parallels between the dramatic rescue of the Thai soccer team trapped in a cave and how Jesus rescues us from the dominion of sin and darkness. Andy unpacks the layers of sin that entrap us and calls believers to humble surrender, consistent repentance, and walking in the light.

Confession, Repentance, & Forgiveness
The right response to sin is always repentance. This week Pastor Brent looks at the closing chapters of Ezra where the Israelites confessed their sins to God and found freedom in forgiveness. We should also be disciplined in following good teachers and regularly practicing confession and repentance.
