One of the themes of the gospels is the fact that Jesus has come to include people who have been on the outskirts. Those who are marginalized by humans standards, the Kingdom brings them into the family of God. This Sunday, Suyash Raiborde preached a message on the parable of the two debtors in Luke 7. In this story, we are confronted with the brokenness of our humanity and the choice we face: do we choose our own self-righteousness or the righteousness offered by Jesus’ forgiveness?

This Sunday, Jon Laurenzo preaches on the parables of the lost sheep and lost coin from Luke 15. He encourages us to see our city and our neighborhoods not as problems to be solved but people to be loved!

Jesus taught in parables, in earthly stories with heavenly meaning. This Sunday in our HIDDEN series, we dove into the Parable of the Sower, learning the importance of checking our hearts so that we can truly receive God’s word. What a message to live out as we allow the seed to take root in our hearts!

Jesus has shown us a new way to be human—that it first starts in the heart. Rain, winds, floods, will beat down on your life trying to make your life fail. But when your life’s foundation is built on Jesus, you will never fail. In this Sunday’s message, Pastor Kevin Smigielski gives us 3 things to remember when storms come our way.
