Fear is a liar, but it's so easy to step into the trap and follow its lead. When fear comes knocking in the form of a situation or relational issue, you have the power to overcome its hold.

While relationships and family dynamics can be difficult, it's ultimately up to you to decide how you approach the holidays (or life in general, for that matter). You may not be able to change the circumstances around you, but you can control where you choose to focus and what you do with your emotions. You have a choice!

It's supposed to be the most wonderful time of year, but the truth is, the holidays can also be really tough. One of the biggest things that impacts the way you enjoy the holidays is how you see yourself.

As a church, generosity is part of our DNA. Over the past year, we've given away over $270,000 to support missions efforts in our city, country, and world because of your generosity. Watch this video to learn about the difference that is making!

Being generous is not about money - it's about the heart. We give because God so generously gave first through Jesus.

"What you have is a picture of a God who never asks us or commands us to do something when He has not already done it first."  God asks us to give our "first fruits" because He went first. He gave His very best in Jesus knowing humanity would be messy.

What does it mean to live "the blessed life?" In part one of this series, Pastor Josh unpacks what giving is and why God calls us to be generous.

Life is meant to be lived in circles, where everyone has a seat at the table. When we all choose to help each other through the process, there is a built-in support system to help you grow into the person God created you to be.

Jesus calls each of us to come and follow Him knowing it is a process. Thankfully, He's there every step of the way to help you learn and move from where you are to where God wants you to be!

God did not save you because you were "good" or "better." He saved you because He wanted to bring you out of the death of sin. In part two of "The Four Chairs," Pastor Josh breaks down what the first chair represents on the journey of following Jesus.

"Sometimes, if we're not careful, we do walk through life thinking we are the messiah for ourselves." Ouch. It's true though, isn't it? God never asked you to walk through life relying on your own strength. Instead He offers to walk with you, becoming your strength and meeting your every need. Watch Part Four of "Summer at Faith Community" as Pastor Charles talks about why you're blessed to be "poor in spirit."

The key to knowing God is spending time with Him, but there are often many things we allow to get in the way of that. In a world rich with distraction, how do we "hunger" for more of God? Watch Part 3 of "Summer at Faith" to learn more about why it's important to pay attention to what we "hunger" for in our lives.

Did you know the Bible is made up of 66 books spanning from Creation, to the birth & death of Jesus, to the early Church and beyond? Have you ever wondered where it came from? Watch Part Three of this series as we explore where the Bible came from.

The Bible is God's story, and no matter where or how you entered, you are a part of it! Get to know Him & allow Him to shape you by reading His stories.

The Bible should be a part of our daily lives, yet it can be pretty intimidating - and sometimes, even offensive to our way of thinking. But God isn't afraid of our questions, and His Word invites us on the journey of discovery.

Easter was a three day journey. No matter where you're at on yours, God is present with you. It's never too late for a new beginning.

The Gospel is not a paycheck, it's a gift. There is nothing we can do to earn God's grace yet He gave His only Son to save each and every one of us.

There are some crazy stories in the Bible - stories of adultery, betrayal, murder. Even so, though there are always consequences, we see God step in and help people clean up the mess time and time again.

We are not strangers to dysfunction. Thankfully, the Bible is full of stories about imperfect people being transformed by the grace of God. When we come face to face with our brokenness, God is ready to walk us to the other side.

We are all broken and there are many examples of brokenness found throughout the Bible. The good news is that God is not afraid of our mess and He is ready to help us on the journey!

Sometimes the resources and gifts we need for life are buried in the ground. There are answers to my problems and answers to my progress or prosperity that lie beneath the ground...God is saying to you and I, "Just start digging."

We exist to help you move from where you are to where God wants you to be. It's a journey, and our heart is that in the process you walk through four important steps: Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

A goal without a plan is simply a wish and we see this played out throughout the Bible. God wants you to run to win, and you've got to be intentional about the steps you take along the way! Download the "S.M.A.R.T Goals" handout that goes along with the message here: http://bit.ly/2UnFNVj
