Buckhead Church

In John 11, the story of Lazarus confronts the common misconception that our circumstances reveal God’s heart, reminding us that delay, disappointment, and grief are not evidence of God’s absence. Even in the pain, Jesus weeps with Mary and Martha, demonstrating that God is compassionate and present before He is powerful. Ultimately, Lazarus’ resurrection -- and the cross that follows -- prove that God’s heart is revealed in Christ, not in our circumstances.

Misconceptions do not just exist in our minds; they linger into our thoughts, informing our actions, and begin to steer the direction of our lives. In part 1 of this series, we are looking at the misconception that following Jesus means I will no longer struggle with sin. We will explore how breaking free from this misconception can free us to experience more of the full and fulfilling life that Jesus offers.

We often assume purpose requires perfection, while Jesus points to a kind of completeness that comes through growth, not flawlessness.

In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?

People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.

We take values like human dignity, compassion, and justice for granted today, but they only feel obvious because the church first introduced them.

Christmas marks the arrival of a solution to an unsolvable problem—how to stand before God when obedience isn't good enough.

No one was looking for God to appear in person, yet Jesus came to make the invisible God unmistakably known.

It's common to feel a tug-of-war between inner anxiety and recognizing God's nearness. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and Steve Cuss, we're invited to consider some false needs that may be steering our reactions.

First-century Israel expected a king who would overthrow Rome. Jesus offered a kingdom far bigger—and he had to redefine “Messiah” before they could see it.

In Can I Get A Witness Part 2, we will look at a story that many people found hard to believe. It is a story that is marked by two words that have the power to transform your life and those around you. You are invited to come and see and you may just leave with the courage to go and tell.

We live in a world where we’ve witnessed extraordinary things—innovation, cultural change, and rapid technological growth. Many of us, or people we know, have seen pivotal moments in history. But there’s a difference between witnessing something and bearing witness to it. One is passive. The other is active—and has the power to change us and the world around us. This is how the Jesus-movement began. Not with pressure, persuasion, or argument—but with a simple invitation: come and see.

We set out to build a church where the convinced and the curious could belong.

It’s one thing to trust God when you’ve lost control; it’s another to resist acting like God once you’ve gained it.

When life goes from bad to worse, will you simply react—or respond as if God is still with you?

Your life isn’t defined by what’s been done to you, but by how you choose to respond—especially when every instinct says to react.

Join us as we kick off Be Rich Serve with a panel discussion featuring Joel Thomas and leaders from our local nonprofit partner organizations.

The hardest part of waiting isn’t always the delay itself. Sometimes it’s the uncertainty of why God seems absent when we need him most.
