Pastor Nate shares a powerful encouragement from James 3 to use our words to speak life, not death, to build up rather than tear down. 

As we continue our study in James, Pastor Nate encourages us to be merciful as our Father in Heaven is merciful toward us. 

Pastor Nate reminds us of God's heart for us, and how that should play itself out in our lives as we love and serve others. 

Pastor Nate encourages us to soak up Jesus' love and Goodness as our source and sustenance in life, that we would be rooted and grounded in His love. This will allow us to face whatever circumstances come our way.

Pastor Nate teaches us that real devotion to the Lord plays itself out in how we care for those that God cares about: the orphan, the widow, the poor, the vulnerable.

Pastor Nate gives us an encouragement from James 1:26 to use our words for their intended purpose, to build up, not to tear down. 

Pastor Nate gives an encouraging Easter message reminding us of God's steadfast love and grace in our lives. He is the God who sees us!

Jesus' triumphal entry can be an example to us of how we are able to have joy and celebrate a victory that has not yet happened.

In this sermon Pastor Nate shares an encouragement from James to be those who are doers of the word, not hearers only, and that ultimately this ability only comes as we are receiving the love of God for us.

Pastor Nate encourages us to be careful with our words, taking James' encouragement to be slow to speak, quick to listen and slow to get angry. Our model for our interactions is Jesus. Hot takes don't help us accomplish God's best for our lives and our world.

If you've ever struggled with your eyesight, you know how important good vision is. But vision is more than just eyesight, vision is also something that directs the choices we make in life. In this episode of UNSCRIPTED we discuss the vision that God has given for us as a Christian community at Mountain Life Calvary Chapel. 

Have you ever had the feeling like things are out of control. Wondering if God is so strong and able, why isn't He doing anything to help? In this episode of UNSCRIPTED we discuss how we can have confidence that God is always doing something good, even when we can't see it. 

Did you know that God has given us an incredible gift in scripture of PROPHECY… foretelling events before they happen. Prophecy is meant to ENCOURAGE us in those times when we are having a hard time seeing anything good now, or in the future. Today on this episode of UNSCRIPTED, we discuss the blessing of prophecy and how God can use it to lift up our heads, when we are feeling down. 

Are you having a good day? Was that movie good? Is this a good car for me to buy? We use the word GOOD quite a bit in our lives, but what do we mean when we say GOOD? In this episode of unscripted we discuss what GOOD is, and why we may not be seeing the GOOD things God is accomplishing in our lives, and the world we live in.
