Speaking this Sabbath is our Lead Pastor, Simon Liversidge, presenting "Nothing Compares to Jesus." After Jesus' resurrection, He appears to His disciples not simply to confirm He is alive but to restore their damaged relationships with Him. Peter had denied knowing Jesus THREE times. Now Jesus restores him THREE times. Jesus invites Peter to stop comparing himself to others and focus on Jesus' call to him. Jesus invited Peter to penitence, to priority, and to purpose in Jesus.

Speaking this Sabbath is our Lead Pastor, Simon Liversidge, presenting "Being Seen for Who I Am." As I invite Jesus to see me as I truly am, I learn who I truly am. As Jesus reveals Himself to the disciples after His resurrection, He invites them to a BBQ of fish down by the lake. As Peter recognizes Jesus, he gets dressed and then jumps in the water! It is only as I am able to see myself as I truly am that I am open to see how much God loved me as I am. God then calls me to faith actions. The actions reveal even more of me as I see God at work in me, but it it always God acting in me.

Speaking this week is our Lead Pastor, Simon Liversidge, presenting "We Can Still See Jesus." Jesus shows up repeatedly following His resurrection to make sure His disciples believe He is risen. The truth that He is alive can transform our lives. In John 20, we notice 3 things about Jesus and His truth-telling. 1) God's actions are signs intended to lead us to truth. 2) The truth is, Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God. 3) If I believe this truth, I will experience real life. This truth leads me to understand my true identity as a child of God.

Speaking this week is our Lead Pastor, Simon Liversidge, presenting "Jesus, You Are My Living Hope." Hope is a powerful thing. Research shows optimists live longer and healthier, but the hope of Christianity is not simply hope. It is hope based on the resurrection life of Jesus. Even when all seems lost, Jesus brings hope! This living hope changes our fear into faith.
