What happens when you start Following Jesus? Well, the decision to Follow Jesus leads to more and more decisions about where to go next. The journey of following Jesus will end up with you needing to make decisions, but they'll be way more natural than you ever dreamed.

Key Verse: Matthew 16:15 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”

We start our new series, Following Jesus. What does that even mean? What if I'm not ready to believe everything about Jesus? What if I like Jesus but I don't believe in the rest of the Bible? Can I still follow Jesus with doubts? Those are just a few of the great questions to which we want to help you find answers.

Key Verse: Matthew 4:19 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men.”

We seal the deal on the Fool's Gold series with what may not be the most important reason for believing in Jesus' resurrection but rather the one you need. This week is all about the "feels" so don't miss it! 

Key Verse: Colossians 1:13-14 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Jesus’ death and resurrection are definitely not Fool’s Gold, and maybe the best evidence of that is the lives that have been transformed. You’ll hear the stories of lives transformed and see people going public with that faith in Jesus through baptism.

Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 1:25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.

Last week, we started talking about whether the Resurrection of Jesus was Fool's Gold or the real deal. History can't deny it, but the big question is "Does it even make any sense?" That's what we'll talk about this Sunday.

Key Verse: Isaiah 29:14 Therefore once more I will astound these people with wonder upon wonder; the wisdom of the wise will perish, the intelligence of the intelligent will vanish.”

We pick right up where we left off on Easter! The Resurrection of Jesus is essential to everything it means to be a follower of God. You just can't get around it. So how do we get our heads around the reality of that event? Is Jesus then just Fool's Gold or the real thing? How can I know? Those are the questions we start answering.

Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 1:25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.
