Canyon Ridge Christian Church Podcast

The world tends to discard what is old or broken. People even neglect relationships rather than repair them. This is not the way of Jesus. Jesus draws near to brokenness, offering restoration and grace. Peter's story of failure and restoration in Luke 22 and John 21 demonstrates Jesus' great love for his people. Where do you need to accept Jesus' restoration today?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49462457RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

What would it take for you to change your life right side up? All it took Zacchaeus was Jesus inviting himself for dinner, creating space for Zacchaeus to see the mess he was living with. This story in Luke 19 reminds us that when you let him, Jesus will transform your life. What would happen if everyone made space for the Light of the World to sit at the dinner table? What might you need to let go so thar your life can be pointed in the direction of Jesus?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49459328RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Where does your invite list end? Luke 14:15-23 teaches us that Jesus extends his invite to many unexpected guests. Those whom the world counts out are often the very people Jesus welcomes in. How can you imitate Jesus this week, inviting in people outside of your comfort zone?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49453167RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Why should sinful people be allowed to experience Jesus and his forgiveness? The grace of the cross reminds us that the Good News draws no lines but brings you closer to a life with him! The unnamed woman's story in Luke 7 helps unravel the truth and grateful love found in the grace of Jesus. Hospitality is more than a task; it is a way to show the love of Jesus to those in your life. How might you shift your tables from a place to eat into a place of worship? MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49453044RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Why is being a loving person so hard? The night before Jesus would give his life, he gave the disciples a new covenant confirmed by the cross and a new command to love others, and he loved them. As he washed the feet of the disciples, including the one who would betray him and the one who would deny him, Jesus displayed the full extent of his love. 1 John 4:19 explains, "We love because he loved us first." How are you receiving the love of Jesus so that you may share it with others through your actions? Who might you need to show love to?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49449725RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

How often do you share meals with your loved ones? Jesus shared meals with people often, creating a safe and unhurried space for relationships. To eat together is to share trust and intimacy with your guest. Who can you invite for a meal this week, deepening your relationship in Jesus' name?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49445653RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

When was the last time a conversation changed your life? Where were you in that moment? Conversations and connections can change how you see the world and other people. The Bible is full of stories of God using people around a table to spark conversation that leads people to Him! Gathering around a table can be relational, formational, and missional in sharing the Good News of Jesus! God wants to use you to help share his name! All it could take is gathering around a table! MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49443166RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Jesus is King! His name holds all power and authority. In his name, you can find freedom, healing, and joy unlike anything the world can offer. When you have a relationship with the King, you can call on his name to experience the gifts of the Kingdom. Read Colossians 1:15-23 this week to learn about the character and authority of King Jesus.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49439964RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever slipped into a movie after it started and realized you don't fully understand what's going on? We sometimes charge through jobs, relationships, and even faith, only to stop and realize a vital piece of the story slipped past us. The believers in Ephesus had the same dilemma—John's water baptism showed repentance, but only when Paul introduced Jesus' baptism did the Spirit fill in the rest of the story (Acts 19). Where is Jesus inviting you to discover more about His truth? Let's discover how Jesus, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, can bring the whole picture into focus for your life.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49436712RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Ever felt disappointed when prayers for healing go unanswered? That question can shake trust and leave the heart aching. Yet God invites people to bring every hope and heartbreak to Him—even the ones that feel unanswered. As Psalm 34:18 reminds, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” There's hope in His nearness, even in the waiting.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49433437RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/walk-differently-in-the-name-of-jesus

Ever been called by your full name and instantly knew something serious was going on? Names carry weight—especially the name of Jesus. God gives meaning to names, and through Jesus, He gives power to those who believe. In Acts 3:6, Peter says, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Could the name of Jesus be what you need to stand up and walk into a new life?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49430032RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever asked God, "Now what?" after a big moment of faith? You, me, and even Jesus' closest followers have been there (Acts 1:6-8). God meets those questions not with frustration but with power, purpose, and community. As we trust in His Spirit and His perfect timing, we step forward together. What's your next step today?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49426402RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://www.canyonridge.org/blog 

Has life ever taken a turn you didn't expect, just when things were looking up? Sometimes what starts in celebration ends in heartbreak or disappointment—and we're left wondering what happened. Luke 24 shows us that even after betrayal and loss, Jesus returns from the grave not with judgment, but with peace and restoration. Could it be that Jesus wants to meet you in the middle of the mess—not after you've cleaned it up? Let's explore how the story of Easter is a story about how Jesus doesn't just restore individuals—He brings broken communities back together.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49423302RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever witnessed God move and felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude and awe? Throughout history, God's people have paused to celebrate the ways He has worked in their lives. In Luke 19, the followers of Jesus praised God loudly for all the miracles they had seen. As a community, we are invited to keep that spirit of praise alive by sharing and celebrating together. Where have you seen God at work recently?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49419396RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you noticed how giving money can often bring out anxiety rather than generosity in us? We all know the tension between wanting to be generous and worrying about our own financial security. Yet, the Bible encourages us to see generosity as a reflection of Jesus, who gave everything so we could be spiritually rich (2 Corinthians 8:9). What if the path to greater peace in your finances starts with trusting God through generous giving? Together, let's find out how generosity shared in community transforms us and points others toward God.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49416037RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Do you treat money as your companion or as your leader? Though money is a helpful tool in life, followers of Jesus know that it cannot satisfy you. The status and security you seek from money are already found in God. Matthew 6:24 says, “Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.” Instead of seeking wealth, pursue righteousness and faith!MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49412509RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever caught yourself tightly gripping onto the possessions you own, reluctant to let go or share? Many of us live like owners, clinging to our possessions as if they define our security or identity, forgetting how fleeting and temporary they really are. Yet, Scripture reminds us that everything belongs to God—our resources, time, and talents are entrusted to us as caretakers, meant to be shared generously (Acts 4:32-35). What would shift if you started seeing your belongings not as yours, but as God's—entrusted to you to manage and generously share? Let's unpack together how embracing God's ownership can free us from worry and lead us toward joyful generosity.  MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49409346RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever experienced the end of a friendship? Friendships come in seasons, and how they end can have lasting impacts. You can choose to leave and lose them or send them with encouragement. This week, consider Paul and Barnabas' example to send your friend well (Acts 13-15).MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49405994RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever had to tell a friend something hard, knowing they might not want to hear it? Nobody enjoys difficult conversations, but real friendships require honesty and love. "Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses." (Proverbs 27:6) Jesus modeled truth with grace, showing that correction isn't about condemnation but about leading others toward God's best. Discover how Jesus' example can help you courageously engage in difficult conversations, guiding your friends lovingly toward God's purpose for their lives.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49402555RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

What's your first instinct when you experience an issue with a friend? Conflict, while intimidating, is a great opportunity to strengthen your friendship. Scripture teaches us that conflict allows believers to pursue their friends as God pursues his children. When you reconcile with someone who has hurt you, you preach the gospel of Jesus!MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49399060RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Making friends doesn't have to be complicated. Jesus gave us a simple way to connect with others: love, listen, and be present. As John 15:12 says, “Love each other as I have loved you.” Instead of waiting for the right friendships to find you, what if you started by being the kind of friend you'd want to have?MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49395532RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Who are you walking with? Are you surrounded by people who seek after Christ or their own interests? Proverbs 13:20 says, "Walk with the wise and become wise; associate with fools and get in trouble." God created people for friendships — you were never intended to be alone. This week, take a look at the quality and character of your friendships, seeking those who will walk toward God with you.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49391965RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

True friendship isn't just about having fun - it's about walking through life together. Ecclesiastes 4 tells us that two are better than one because they strengthen and support each other. Jesus calls us friends and models the kind of deep, intentional relationships we all long for. Who in your life needs the kind of friendship Jesus offers? Let's lean into God's design for true connection.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49388673RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever wondered who is permitted to preach the Word of God? This question has followed the church for thousands of years, with much prayer, study, and discernment. As Canyon Ridge seeks to please God and do what's helpful to his people, the settled decision is that God gifts both men and women to teach his Word. MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49385162RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Have you ever trusted a plan, only for it to turn out completely different than you imagined? We all face moments when life seems to go completely off the rails, leaving us scrambling for answers. Judges 7:2-7 recounts how God took Gideon's army from 32,000 to 300, teaching that victory comes not by human strength but by trusting His power. What part of your life feels disordered, where God might be asking you to trust Him for renewal and reordering? True transformation requires both faith and wisdom—begin by doing what you know God has already said.

How different would your life be if you allowed God's voice to be the loudest when you make a decision? In Gideon's journey to discovering what God had in store for him in Judges 6, he learns to listen to God and obey his Word through discerning God's voice. You will learn more about God if you become marked by discernment and obedience to Jesus! How will you start to listening to God's voice and seeking Him first?

Have you ever found yourself in that messy middle, caught between leaving the old behind and stepping into something new? We all know how hard it can be to leave behind what's comfortable, even when we sense that something better is ahead. In Judges 6:25-32, God calls Gideon to tear down the altar to Baal and build an altar to Him, leading the way to a reordered life. What in your life needs to be torn down so that God can build something better? Together, we'll discover how embracing God in the mess leads to a life of renewed purpose and trust. 

Do you ever wonder if the disruption in your life is leading anywhere good? Like popcorn exploding under heat, life often moves from order to disorder before being transformed into something new. The story of Gideon in Judges 6 shows us that God meets us in the mess, reorders our perspective, and calls us to trust His plan. Jesus embraced disorder, paving the way for resurrection and life. Discover how embracing God in life's disruptions can lead to a better reorder than you could ever imagine.Free eBook: https://www.sonlife.com/store/ebooks/33-things-ebook/Series Study: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/609ebb53af289c18812c21ae/t/6779b2a984184f0b624582a8/1736028845911/Order+Disorder+Reorder+Study+Guide.pdfBlog: https://www.canyonridge.org/blogsResources: https://www.canyonridge.org/

The last week of the year can be a difficult one, often filled with anticipation as we look forward to what the new year will bring. In our rush to move ahead, we can overlook the past year and miss the chance to see how God has been faithfully working in and through our lives. Colossians 3:2 encourages us to “set your sights on the realities of heaven,” reminding us to look beyond the immediate and focus on God's eternal work in our lives. Instead of rushing into 2025, what if you paused to reflect on 2024—asking where your focus aligned with Jesus' perspective, how you showed His love, and what you devoted yourself to? Take some time this week to reflect on these questions with God and step into the new year with a clearer perspective.MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49368152RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

MESSAGE NOTES:https://www.bible.com/events/49367136RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.org/Take a new look at the story of the First Christmas and the unexpected encounters that took place - like Mary's favor, Joseph's revelation, and the shepherds' acknowledgment. This year, take time to appreciate Jesus and the unexpected joy that he brings and reimagine how His story can unexpectedly transform your life.

Have you ever faced a challenge so difficult it made you question if the effort was worth it? No matter who you are, we all face surprises and setbacks that challenge our plans. The story of Joseph in Matthew 1:18-25 reminds us that God is often working through even the hardest trials to bring about His perfect plan. What if waiting on God, watching for His presence, and wondering at His work could transform how you face life's toughest moments? God's plan for you is often costly but always good—it's in the struggle that He shapes incredible purpose and joy.

Have you faced a moment where life surprised you, and you didn't know what was next? We all face unexpected moments, and navigating them well means listening to God and listening together. In Luke 1, Mary's story reminds us that in life's surprises, God not only provides guidance but also places people, like Elizabeth, to share the journey with us. God has placed people in your life to share in surprises and invites you to do the same for others. Who has God placed in your life to walk with you through life's surprises? 

What if hope wasn't something to search for but something to practice daily? It's easy for uncertainty or challenges to shake a person's sense of hope, but Psalm 33 reminds everyone to anchor hope in God's unfailing love rather than personal strength. Gathering with others, encouraging one another, and living out acts of love creates opportunities to practice the kind of hope God calls His people to. How can this kind of hope be practiced with others this week?

When life gets tough, who motivates you to keep going? Who's your 'us'? We all need people in our lives who push us toward love and good works. Hebrews 10:24 reminds us that God designed us to live in connection and encourage one another into action. Who can you encourage this week, and who can encourage you? Chapters:00:00 - In Hebrews 10: Irritating One Another00:27 - Psalm 6501:16 - Practicing Hope05:48 - Let us Motivate One Another10:01 - There is an Us11:59 - What is Your One Another?16:41 - How to Motivate One Another20:33 - Hebrews 10:2424:05 - Let us not neglect our meeting together25:30 - A message about service this holiday29:09 - A Proclamation on Giving34:21 - Give in Jesus Name Only39:13 - Hebrews 10:2440:27 - Thanksgiving Celebration: Who Has Given greatly?43:04 - A Moment of GratitudeRESOURCE: https://www.canyonridge.org/studies-category/practicing-hopeBLOG: https://www.canyonridge.org/blogs/ignite-hope-in-your-community

Are you reflecting with God and taking His advice? Practicing hope means regular repentance. Some might feel uncomfortable with repentance, but practically speaking, repentance means turning towards God. God then directs us to recognize our sins and be open to change. While taking these steps in repentance, look and listen for connection, correction, and direction. Listening to God, reflecting with Him, and confessing leads you toward greater hope through Jesus.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by life's demands and uncertainties, seeking peace and stability? In the midst of chaos, God's constant presence offers solace, inviting us to rest in His love. Psalm 131 encourages us to quiet our hearts and place our hope in the Lord. Together, as a community, we can support one another in practicing God's presence and drawing strength from His steadfast love. This week, set aside time each day to calm your soul and seek God's presence, allowing His peace to transform your life.

Feeling weighed down by the uncertainty of life or the pressure to find hope in shifting circumstances? While life may feel like a storm, there's an anchor that won't let us drift—the unchanging presence of God, who holds us steady. With Jesus as our High Priest, we have direct access to God's love, guidance, and peace. Imagine embracing each day with a hope anchored in God's trustworthy character, rather than the fleeting promises of the world. Will you join in practicing this simple, powerful approach to lasting hope?

Do you ever pause to consider Peter's warning that "your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour" (1 Peter 5:8)? Many move through life unaware of the spiritual battle raging around them. God hasn't left us defenseless - He's equipped us with His armor of truth, faith, and His Word. What would change if you began each day intentionally putting on God's armor? Are you ready to stand firm, knowing you're not fighting for victory but FROM it - because Christ has already won?

Do you behave as if God is in charge or as if you are? When the world is unjust and unkind, do you often turn to God or try to handle it yourself? In 1 Peter 5:5-7, God tells us to humble ourselves and throw our worries to Him. God is strong enough, God cares about you, and His timing is always perfect.CHAPTERS:00:01 - Humbleness in the Life00:26 - One Peter: When Life Gets Challenging03:32 - One Peter, Chapter 508:41 - Peter's story in John 2110:13 - Peter's Story of Humility12:36 - Hero or Humbled?: A Game15:39 - Humility and Self-Humility20:35 - God is Strong, But He also Opposes the Proud25:39 - Peter's Humility in SufferingRESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.org/studies-category/just-visitingBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/humility-a-posture-of-trust

How will you handle suffering? That's the real question. Peter's words remind you that following Jesus doesn't mean escaping hardship. It means embracing it with a purpose. Jesus walked the road of suffering, and through it, God met people. Now, you are called to walk in His steps—not to avoid suffering, but to do good even when it brings pain. When trials come, will you choose to suffer well? Your response becomes an opportunity to show the world who Jesus is. How will you let God shape you through it?RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/

Peter's words remind you that as a follower of Jesus, you're not just a visitor here. You are part of something bigger—God's living temple, where He meets with people and people meet with Him. You're not just going—you're going together, with purpose. Your whole life becomes a spiritual offering, showing others the goodness of God.

MESSAGE NOTES: https://www.bible.com/events/49321704RESOURCES: https://www.canyonridge.orgBLOG: https://canyonridge.org/blogs/How have you been conformed to culture? Followers of Jesus are called to holiness, which sets them apart from the culture of the world. 1 Peter 1:13-16 teaches that when your hope is in Jesus, your behavior changes to look more like God and less like the world. Consider how you can prepare your mind, exercise self-control, hope in Jesus, and live obediently to reflect God's holiness instead of conforming to the world.Chapters:00:00:00 - Living well with Jesus in a world that doesn't cooperate00:06:30 - The Promise of Restoration00:13:31 - Living in Obedience and Hope00:20:29 - Pursuing Holiness with God as the Standard00:27:31 - The Path to Lasting Happiness00:34:48 - Redemption through Jesus' Blood00:41:54 - Reminder to Like, Subscribe and Share

Have you ever lived in a place that didn't feel like home? In those times, you might feel like an outcast or that the environment is not right for you. 1 Peter 2:9-12 teaches us that followers of Jesus will feel that way in this broken world.

What would it look like to order those habits around Jesus and his Word? Would you have to change things? Followers of Jesus should always follow the guiding principle to be disciples and make disciples (Matthew 28:18-20). Answer these three questions to help identify the spaces where you can make disciples:-Where am I going?-Who is with me, prayerfully supporting me as I make disciples?-Who is close to me but might be far from God?

As life speeds up, God invites us to slow down and reflect. Are you heading in the right direction, at the right pace? God created you to contribute meaningfully, reflecting His image in your work and generosity. Pause and ask, "God, how do you want to reshape my approach to work and money?" Aligning your efforts with His purpose brings true joy and fulfillment. Commit to inviting God into every aspect of your life, trusting Him to guide your steps.
