In part four of our series, "Holy Spirit," Pastor Matt dives into 1 Corinthians and how praying in the power the Spirit aligns our words with his purpose to reveal Jesus.

In part three of our series, "Holy Spirit," Pastor Matt looks at 1 Corinthians 12, Romans 12, and 2 Corinthians 10 to see how the Holy Spirit gives gifts to each believer to reveal Jesus to others.

In part two of our series, "Holy Spirit," Pastor Matt looks at John 15, Acts 2, and Isaiah 6 to answer the question "Why Does the Holy Spirit Fill People?"

This week we kicked off a new series, "Holy Spirit." Over the next several weeks, we'll be exploring and answering questions about this Person of the Trinity to help us understand and embrace its transformative power in our lives.
In this message, Pastor Matt shares how the Spirit of God reveals Jesus. When we're filled with the Spirit, it transforms us from the inside out. To receive it, we can ask our Heavenly Father with boldness, persistence, and pure motives.

On this Easter Sunday, we continued our journey to be determined like Paul to know nothing except Christ and him crucified.

In Rome the cross was used as punishment to control people, but how would God use the cross to save people?

For Christians, the message of the cross reveals God’s plan of redemption for those who believe through his death on the cross and resurrection life. It's God’s wisdom and power revealed.

In this message wrapping up our series "Christ Crucified," Pastor Matt talks about three ways the message of the cross reveals the power of God to save.

Stop deceiving yourself. 

That might sound a bit harsh, but that's the warning Paul shares in 1 Corinthians 3: 1-23.  

We can think we aren't controlled by our sinful nature when in reality, we are. And we can think we have wisdom because we are basing it on the world's standards. That's self-deception.

Humans will strive to gain wisdom of this world. That's human wisdom gained by human effort. We know scripture says that's foolishness.

Paul had evidence to show how people were still being controlled by their sinful nature and self-deception. This week, Pastor Matt guides us through that evidence with four questions we can use to examine ourselves to avoid deception.

Ultimately, God's wisdom is revealed, not gained.
