Church shouldn't be boring. And, the book of the Acts is proof of that. In every generation of the church, people have rediscovered the story of the early church as it's told in the book of Acts—and it has set the church on fire. In a cultural moment where the church is in decline, we want to read the book of Acts page by page and highlight moments that have the potential to renew the church in our time. We don't just want to read stories from Acts, we want to live them. If that's what you want and you're just curious about faith, join us for Season 3 of Highlights from Acts.

In a cultural moment when you might be getting tired of trying to blaze your own trail, Jesus is inviting you to follow him on a well-worn, ancient path to the life you're made for. As Jesus says, “I'm the way, the truth, and the life.” It's a narrow and challenging path, but he says that, if you walk with him, you'll find that his “burden is light.” In this four-part teaching series, we're inviting you to follow Jesus along the pathway to faith, power, change, and purpose in a community of other people who want to do the same.

The Bible tells the marriage story that helps make sense of our own marriage stories. It opens with a moment that feels like a wedding, and it closes with another wedding (just not like any wedding you've ever been to). And, the rest of the Bible is full of real stories that highlight how bad marriage can get and how good it has the potential to be. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere in-between, join us on Sundays as we explore the rise, fall, redemption, and future of marriage.This is one of our annual biblical theology teaching series—following the thread of a theme through the biblical metanarrative from Genesis to Revelation.

If you moved away, would any of your neighbors miss you? As followers of Jesus, we're supposed to be known for how well we love our neighbors, but it's easier than ever to not even know our neighbors. That's why, this summer, we want to equip you to pray for, know, serve, and invite the neighbors that God has intentionally placed you near. We want to be a church that's “for the good of the neighborhood” one neighbor at a time. Kick off the summer with us by joining us on Sundays for this three-week teaching series starting on Sunday, June 22.

How do you follow Jesus into the life you're made for? One step at a time. In our Everyday Faith teaching series, we explored the five foundational beliefs on which you build the life you're made for. Now, in Everyday Life, we're ready to start building the lives we're made for—what Jesus called “life to the fullest” (John 10v10). There's at least six overlapping areas of the life you're made for: moral life, emotional life, physical life, relational life, vocational life, and cultural life.

Christmas makes me feel _____________. How would you fill in that blank? You might feel anxious because there's just so much to do or so many people to talk to.
