Have you ever looked around and wondered why is life so unfair? Why do I struggle, while others get ahead? Why even follow God? What do you do with the pain, the confusion, the anger? This week we look at a raw, honest prayer that many would not dare to pray. Join us this week as we look at the power of our perspective and the invitation of God to bring all of ourselves to Him.

When life gets hard we often lose perspective. When the waves of adversity roll in one after another it can feel like there is no hope and no end in sight. How do you regain perspective in the storms of life? How do you experience peace in the storms of life?

We all long to change, to grow, to experience life transformation. Sometimes we try quick fixes or self-help books and other times we just give up trying altogether. How do you truly experience life-change that last? What is the secret to becoming the person you long to be and who God made you to be? In this session we are going to discover one critical ingredient to experience personal transformation.

How do you face the future in times of confusion? What do you do you when you feel stuck or paralyzed in life? Maybe you’re stuck relationally, in your marriage, with your kids or with a close friend. Perhaps you are overextended in your job. The pressure and the pace of the Silicon Valley has life turned upside down. Or maybe the future fills you with anxiety, the uncertainty of tomorrow overwhelms you and you’re confused about how to move forward. Join us as we dive into this ancient Psalm from Moses that will give you clarity in times of confusion.

We appreciate honest vulnerability in others yet many of us struggle to be vulnerable and real. We live in a culture that covers up every blemish and filters every imperfection. It’s tiring. It’s superficial. It’s lonely. Join us as we discover how coming out of hiding is the very place where you experience healing and wholeness.

Life is a journey filled with highs and lows; valleys and peaks. There are times the journey feels like we are just wandering aimlessly. Other times it feels like we are just waiting around, unsure of where to go or what to do. Where is God in this journey? What is He doing when life's journey descends into valley below or it feels like we're wandering in the dessert?

There are defining moments in everyone's life. Moments that alter the very course of our lives. Often we do not know when or where these defining moments will take place until after it is all said and done. As a result, we look back at missed opportunities and empty dreams. It does not have to be this way! Join us as we discover how to successfully lean into life's most important moments.

We believe wherever prayer focuses the power of God falls. Often the missing ingredient in many followers of Jesus’ lives is prayer. Prayer is to our faith as breathing is to our bodies. Join us as we talk about how you can truly know God personally and not just know about him.

God has given every follower of Jesus spiritual resources to take your stand against evil. Join us this week in part 3 of Unseen as we discover how to lean into God's protection and provision.

Join us this week as we dive deeper into the reality of the Unseen world – looking at who is the Evil One and what is his role in the world.

There is a spiritual realm that is as real as the air we breathe and as powerful as the wind we feel on our skin.

Hope is the confident expectation of a better tomorrow. Our world is a mess — globally, politically, socially, and for many, personally. Where do you find hope when it feels like all hope is lost? Join us as we discover how, in the darkest hour, hope rises strongest.

Hope rises from unlikely places. This week, Ryan will talk about our partnership with Haiti and how the gospel has transformed lives in unexpected ways. We’ll also hear from members of our Haiti team about how God has been using them.

There is one thing that is always on God’s mind: people. God has no greater treasure, no greater value, and no greater passion than His unconditional love for every single human being. As God draws us to His love and ultimately to receive the gift of salvation, He calls us to be carriers of Good News to others: ambassadors for Christ, kingdom expanders.

How can we can effectively be partners with God to carry out His mission: to help every single person in the world find and follow Jesus Christ?

Join us as we explore how the Scriptures guide fathers and mothers in relationships with their children.
