American society today has become divided, and Christians are no exception. In such a divisive time, it is important to maintain unity. Christ called us to love our neighbors regardless of their race, gender, political position, or financial...

Maybe you believe in the power of prayer, but do you pray as often as you should? We will discuss two major prayer problems that many people face.

Consider kneeling before God, and what that means. Kneeling is not something we commonly find ourselves doing but it can be an important posture in our walks as Christians.

Have you ever thought about how much we mean to God that He would come down to Earth from his privileged place in heaven, put on flesh to become human, so he could KNOW us?

Guilt and shame are two different things. God’s forgiveness is so powerful and real that it can erase ALL shame and guilt. We just have to let it go.

We have been faithfully pursuing the urgent and neglecting that which is most important. If we don't take care of the most important things, we will have many more urgent things to deal with.

When you take the time to fall in love with scripture you often find treasure along the way. God's word helps us to know him more completely than any Bible study or devotional could.

When you realize that the reward is in the process, not something you achieve occasionally, you can be grateful during the mundane times.

When was the last time that you prayed a “dangerous” prayer? God wants an intimate, personal relationship with you, but “safe” prayers don’t require trust in God. When we are driven by fear, we cannot be led by faith.

Although we live in a physical world, there is another world where war is raging, where there is a Kingdom of light and darkness, and where we don't fight with physical weapons. How do we engage in this battle with prayer, faith, and the power...

Do you believe that our God has the power to touch a sick body and make it well? Scott preaches on how we reconcile a God who can heal, but doesn't always chose to.

We try to lives on our own power but there is a far greater power available to us! Instead of struggling against our obstacles and getting worn down, we can rely on the power of Jesus!

There are 5 different ways that the Holy Spirit leads us into a deeper relationship with Jesus. The holy spirit is with us, but is also in us.

If we do something purely out of a sense of duty, we can begin to resent those who we are doing it for. Jesus told us to go make disciples throughout the world.

“For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.” What do the words “For to me” mean?

As we move through the process of Becoming Venture, we will explore the core values that define our church community. This week we look at hospitality, not motivated from greed, but generosity.

Hear Pastor Scott and Pastor Brandon share the story of Canyon Creek Church, and the reasoning behind changing the name to Venture Church

Sometimes we need to give up things that are good for Christ, who is better. What is the point of getting everything you ever wanted, but losing eternity?

Temptation is not a sin, but all too often it is confused with sin. Jesus was tempted in all the same ways that we are tempted, and remains sinless. How do we deal with temptation in a biblical and Christ-like way?

Why do we need to talk about what happens after you die? What you believe about eternity determines how you live today.

In this Sunday's message Pastor Scott teaches on how to confront those who live hypocritically. Listen and learn the difference between judging others and correcting them.

Do you know a needy person? How can we love those in need in a way that helps, not hurts?

Jesus was given criticism by many people. We can't avoid criticism, but we can look to Jesus as a model of how to handle criticism.

There are a lot of places that give advice about being a Mom (or even a parent for that matter), but not all of it is good advice. God calls us to love everyone unfairly.

As Christians, we are meant to be a "salve" to society in order to ease the groanings of people around us.

We tend to gravitate towards people who are easy to be around but we avoid those who are more difficult to be around. Jesus called us to love people, not just when it’s easy but especially when it’s difficult.

Jesus is the resurrection and the life! He rose from the dead and has power over the grave!

As Christians, we may feel like it’s sinful to feel hurt. We need to confront issues and truly forgive others.

What is Love? We say we love our spouse, and we love Costco pizza. When we say we love Jesus, do we really mean it? Is that love apparent in the way we love?

Living for the approval of people keeps you from the purposes of God. Purposeful living can diminish distractions, push you through pain and empower you to please God. What purpose do you live for?

You may not feel rich, but you are! Jesus says that "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven". This doesn't mean it is wrong to be rich, but it is important to be...

Pastor Scott addresses the common fallacy “it doesn’t matter what you believe as long as you’re sincere”. What does Jesus have to say about our belief?

Maybe you’ve come from a background where liturgy and ritual is front and center in the church. Maybe you’ve come from a background that is more charismatic. Which way is best? Both are right; neither are right. The point is Jesus and when we get...

Pastor Scott talks about 'unbelief' in the United States where the common answer to "do you believe in God?" is "yes". But many people believe in God but do not know him.
