7 Spiritual Disciplines | Disciple Part 5

Following Jesus isn't just a Sunday event.  It's a daily choice. While corporate worship, community, and service are essential parts of our growth, they aren't enough on their own to form us into disciples who make disciples. Becoming like Jesus requires us to intentionally practice daily spiritual habits.

What does it truly mean to follow Jesus? In this message, we kick off our new series, Disciple, by looking at the story of the Philippian jailer in Acts 16.

Good Plans | My Story, My Song Part 4

Suffering is a part of life that none of us can avoid, yet it is rarely a topic we enjoy talking about. But when we look at the stories of David, Joseph, and others throughout Scripture, we see a profound truth: suffering happens on purpose and has a purpose.
