What if true strength meant responding to wrongs with grace? Here we look at Jesus' teachings on retribution and mercy from the Sermon on the Mount. Find out why how "turning the other cheek" isn't about weakness, but a powerful transformation of the heart. We also cover what it means to go the extra mile in a world fixated on fairness. This isn't about following rules—it's about embodying the revolutionary love of Christ in everyday conflicts. Listen now and be inspired to live out grace in ways that reflect the transformative power of the gospel.

We begin our journey though the book of 1 Kings. This important Old Testament narrative traces the royal lineage of David, beginning with Solomon. There will be highs and plenty of lows. And in this sermon, we see that from the beginning there are major cracks in the armor–specifically the weakness of David and prideful ambition of Solomon's brother Adonijah. Through this we see both the reality of the spiritual battle at hand in our world, and our need to crown the right king.…
 
Did you know the Magi's gifts weren't just precious treasures, but prophetic symbols pointing to Jesus as the true King? Their bold journey from the East shows an authentic faith. While King Herod clutched his earthly crown, these distant travelers recognized and bowed before the ultimate King, showing us the difference between worldly power and divine authority. Listen now as we explore how their response to Jesus challenges us to examine our own hearts and allegiances today.…
 
The incarnation of Jesus ultimately offers humanity redemption and adoption. Not only does Jesus redeem us--set us free from our slavery--but he makes it possible for God to adopt us. He welcomes us into his family as sons and daughters. This new identity means we have full access to a royal inheritance.…
 
Advent is a season that often gets overshadowed by the festive celebrations of Christmas. However, it holds a profound significance in the Christian calendar, inviting believers to reflect on the anticipation and hope that precede the arrival of Jesus Christ. Here we take a deeper look at the meaning of Advent through the lens of Paul’s letter to the Galatians. This isn't just a distant historical account—it's a living invitation to discover an identity that truly sets you free.…
 
Did you know Jesus' command "do not judge" is an often-misunderstood teaching from the Sermon on the Mount? This command still aligns with other New Testament teachings–if we understand the crucial difference between harmful judgment and righteous discernment. Listen now as we examine our own hearts, and build relationships that reflect Christ's love.…
 
Jesus calls his followers to not be overly consumed with their own lives, but instead to value life in the kingdom of God. The prior can be clouded by worry, while the later affords a certain freedom. Is worry a sin? Where does it come from? And how do we shift out of it? In this teaching we aim to answer those questions and others as we look internally at our hearts and consider their condition.…
 
We look at Jesus' teaching on the reality and location of our treasures. Rather than entrusting our treasures to this earth, Jesus calls us to place them in heaven. What does this mean and how do we do it? We will aim to answer those questions and others as we look internally at our hearts and consider their condition.…
 
We continue our look at the Sermon on the Mount by considering Jesus' teaching on how to carry out our spiritual disciplines (Matt 6:1-18). While the Pharisees and religious leaders liked to flaunt their spirituality, Jesus is calling his followers to a heart-based spirituality that seeks God's glory above man.…
 
How are we supposed to love those who are not so easy to love? We look at Jesus' teaching from Matthew 5 about loving your enemies–a command that challenges everything our culture tells us about relationships and justice. It offers a fresh perspective on handling conflict, rising above division, and experiencing true spiritual transformation in your daily life. Love can help you break cycles of hatred and walk a more fulfilling path forward. Listen now and be inspired to cultivate a love that transcends boundaries, heals relationships, and reflects God's extraordinary grace in your life.…
