Communion: Passion, Pain, and Promise

Max Lucado tells about sharing communion as a boy and what it means to us now -- more than symbol, it's sacrament, a holy time of anticipation.

Jesus walked triumphantly out of the tomb and transformed the lives of defeated and afraid friends into world-changing witnesses!

We want our lives to be part of Jesus' story of redemption, and then we want to share that redemption with others!

Primal Fears

Phil Ware looks at Jesus and how he brings us victory over our worst fears as adults.

Instinctive? Maybe. Pervasive? Absolutely! Primal fears have plagued humanity for as long as we have told stories and laid awake at night... afraid!

God Still Cares

James Nored and Phil Ware continue their messages on God's plan of redemption and how God longs to restore us to himself.

When we have sinned, fallen short of God's plans for us, and have disappointed our heavenly Father, we assume he puts us into his “club for the unwanteds.”

Until He Comes!

Phil Ware continues our focus on the Lord's Supper called Beyond Bread and Wine: this week our focus is on Jesus' return in glory!

The Lord's Supper is our regular reminder that Jesus is coming for us to share in his victory!
