    Fight Church | An Unexpected Easter Story

    Ever asked yourself: who am I? Our identities can be so fragile as we build our lives on things that are so temporary: fame, winning, politics. What can we do to be more secure and focused as we look for our true identity? THIS MESSAGE Being secure in who we are can seem like an unattainable dream. Sometimes we go from thing to thing and season to season trying to fill that missing piece of identity in our lives. But when nothing else fits, what can we do? We turn to Jesus, for He is that missing piece. Let's listen in as Pastor Zach Anderson speaks on how Jesus is that missing piece that defines everything about who we are. NEXT STEPS Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You may be wondering what’s next in your journey--we're in your corner and want to help! Let us help guide you to your next steps in your walk with Christ.

    EASTER is more than a holiday, it's the ultimate comeback story. Ever wish you had a comeback story?

    Fight Church: The Mastery of Potential

    Have you ever felt like you weren't living in God's best? The reality of life often times doesn't match what God says He has for us. It can be frustrating and, more than anything, discouraging! We can sometimes take the foot off the gas and get stuck in the mundane, but God wants us to thrive in the mundane and live a life of victory in His grace and maximize our potential! THIS MESSAGE Today's Fight Church is all about reaching our full potential in Jesus! Sometimes it feels like Jiu Jitsu. No matter how hard we're trying or training we aren't seeing the results we want. Sometimes it's not about training harder but smarter. And the key to it all: Jesus! Lets listen in as Pastor Zach teaches about the tools Jesus gives us and the small adjustments we can make to make the most of God's promises and live up to our potential.

We stand in Dakota's corner and look forward to what is ahead. But what's next for Cross Choke? THIS EPISODE Discerning God's guidance and direction can be really difficult and can feel like we're one choice away from messing everything up.

    Fight Church: I am Good Enough

    Ever felt like forgiveness was for the other guy, but not for you? We can sure make living in grace more of struggle than it should be, and live life with our head hung in shame and defeat. But God wants us to live in grace-filled victory! THIS MESSAGE Following our message for FC5 about not being good enough, today's Fight Church is all about being good enough! We're not good enough because of anything we have done or earned, but by believing. Jesus has paid the price and made a way, and because of that we have hope. Let's listen in as Pastor Jeff teaches us from the book of Ephesians and Romans. NEXT STEPS Have you made a decision to follow Jesus? You may be wondering what’s next on your journey.

    #42: A Conversation on Discipleship

    What about discipleship? We can think of it as kind of an odd and old word saved for religious folk and pastors. Jesus actually instructed ALL Christians to go and make disciples of every nation and tongue! Wherever we go we are to make disciples along the way. But what does that mean to us fighters? THIS EPISODE Teaching and leading someone in the ways of the Lord sounds scary, and yes... it is. "What if I do something wrong or teach something that isn't in the Bible?" Discipleship is doable, as well necessary for the health of the church. Pastor Zach and Dakota converse about the importance of discipleship, ways in which discipleship has impacted their lives and what they've learned from discipling others. Let's listen in as they share some ways to make discipleship manageable, less scary and achievable in the context of combat sports. Our signature walk out song segment: MadMen! by Wavorly.

    Fight Church: I'll Never be Good Enough

    Ever just felt like you weren't good enough? When we fail it's easy to feel like we're failures. Having a failure-mentality can define our character and infect our relationship with God. "If God has such great plans for me, how can He use me if I'm such a screw up?" Let's talk about how to overcome shortcomings, self-pity and our feelings of inadequacy. THIS MESSAGE Living like we're not good enough creates a lifestyle of defeat. God has so much more for us than shame, guilt and condemnation. He wants us to live in victory! What are we to do when we're such sinners and living in defeat? Let's listen in as Pastor Zach teaches us from the book of Ephesians. NEXT STEPS Have you made a decision to follow Jesus?
