Most people want to relate to Jesus on their own terms, but a “fake Jesus” that we create to meet our needs can't really change or challenge us. If you want a Jesus that can actually transform you, you have to search for the real Jesus. In the earliest gospel account in existence, a writer named Mark introduces us to “The Real Jesus.”  #MoRealJesus

Our Lead minister, Dan Smith, brings us our Easter Sunday message based on the Gospel of John 11 as we learn of Jesus raising His friend Lazarus from the grave after he had been in the tomb for 4 days. 

Not all of Jesus' teachings are warm and fuzzy. Some are difficult to understand. Others are jagged little pills that are all too easy to understand but incredibly hard to swallow. Here are some of the hard teachings of Jesus from the Gospel of Mark in the Bible. #MoHardSayings

Yul Perez shared the parable from Luke 15:11-32 on the Lost Son, sometimes referred to as The Prodigal Son.

Back in 1980 Pac-Man was released in the U.S., and we were overtaken with something called “Pac-Man Fever.” What metaphorical lessons can we learn about God and faith from the hours upon hours some of us have spent in bean bag chairs with controllers in our hands?  #MoPacMan

Lauren Love, Director of Student Ministry, leads a panel of Middle School girls as they share the story of  their spiritual journey! 

“I like big Bibles, and I cannot lie!” This is the opening line from a viral comedy song / music video created by our Lead Minister, Dan Smith (Google “Baby Got Book X”). This internet banger is all about a dude who loves the Scriptures and is searching for a godly lady who feels the same way. Psalm 119 was also written by a poet who absolutely “delighted” in God's Word. It's the longest psalm (and chapter) in the entire Bible, and it's jam-packed with spiritual nuggets about developing a growing relationship with God. From basics to advanced tips, these messages are a great way to start the New Year!  #ILikeBigBibles

Throughout history, countless artists have depicted the events surrounding the birth of Christ. Each week during this holiday season we will look at one painting, along with the Scriptures, to celebrate the first Christmas. #MoChristmas

Jesus often used stories and common cultural images to teach people about faith. In that vein, every year Momentum asks, “What can these movies – plus the Bible – teach us about loving God and loving people?” #MoMovies

In this section of the Gospel of Mark, the author tells four stories to show us that Jesus has power over situations that are out of our control. These stories force us to ask the essential question, “Who is this?!?!” #MoJesusVs
