Safety Day

THIS IS DIFFERENT. In the wake of the Houston Chronicle's expose of over 700 sexual abuse cases in the Southern Baptist Church, we felt it was really important to talk about how we take safety for families seriously.

Red Letter Day 03: I Am Thirsty

Are you a person who lives a life of scarcity? Are you always needing from others, looking for what you can get? OR, are you a person of abundance, who's life overflows into the lives of others and makes a difference? How can you move from one to the other?

Red Letter Day 02: Father, Forgive Them

So many of us have real reasons to be angry, bitter, and hurt. We have dealt with betrayal, neglect, even abuse. Sure, we're hurt. But, how do we OVERCOME our hurt and live in victory, rather than continue to be defeated by our past?

Red Letter Day 01: Why Have You Forsaken Me?

You may know that my parents were involved in a horrible car accident a week before this message. God has used that terrible incident to really teach me about His presence through our catastrophe. 
This new series is about the sayings of Jesus on the cross. It will help prepare our hearts for Easter Sunday. 

Margin 04: Moral Margin

Why do we always ask the wrong question about pleasing God? We tend to ask "is this a sin," or "is that okay with God?" This is the wrong question. There is something much better than fixating on what is and isn't a sin.

Margin 03: Financial Margin

Financial margin is the number one killer of marriages. It creates tension in nearly everyone's life. I am convinced that almost none of us actually have a financial problem.. In fact, I believe we have a spiritual problem. One that God has already taken care of for us. 

Margin 02: Scheduling Margin

Have you ever arrived at the end of a really busy week... You know, one of those weeks where you did a LOT of stuff, but you didn't actually accomplish anything? It seems we can fit many unimportant things into our schedules, and somehow miss the real essentials that give our lives purpose. There really is a simple principle to help us overcome that, and live life on purpose.

Margin 01: Intro to Margin

You're too busy! You are so involved in taking care of the URGENT things, that you're missing out on the IMPORTANT thing! what is that, and how can you create "margin" in your life for the best things?

Exponential: The Path To Power

We love because He loved us FIRST

Exponential: God Started Something

There is only one path to experiencing the power of God. All other paths are fake power paths. We waste a lot of time and energy chasing power, but we're running down the wrong path most of the time.
