“Softer’s Louder”

November 18, 2025

Minimalism isn’t a fringe movement. Brand names reduced to consonants, simple logos, and simple packaging has become the norm for businesses. A limited menu – if there’s a menu at all – has become synonymous with fine dining. And instead of…

“Amazing Grace & Peace”

“Amazing Grace & Peace”

The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO is designed to sway up to 18 inches in either direction. The Willis Tower, formerly the Sears Tower in Chicago, can sway 3 feet in either direction. And astonishingly, if you’re at the top of the Burj Khalifa in…

“The Best Of Times & The Worst Of Times”

“The Best Of Times & The Worst Of Times”

October 29, 2024

If a seed could talk, fear might cause it to scream as it’s thrown into a field. You can hear it objecting to being buried in the dirt. You can imagine it crying out for help as the rain pounds down upon it. And if all that isn’t enough, the pain…

“Two Places At Once”

“Two Places At Once”

October 15, 2024

When you’re training for a job, you’re usually paired with a leader who knows the job inside and out. The process may involve reading some manuals and watching training videos, but the most valuable part of the training process is being with…

“What Can You Learn?”

“What Can You Learn?”

October 1, 2023

Aesop gained insight by meditating on the actions of animals. John Muir believed humanity could better understand itself by reflecting on the nature of trees and mountains. Zoroastrians looked to the stars to find direction in life…

“Elemental”

“Elemental”

September 17, 2023

Here’s a dumb joke: what has ears but doesn’t listen? Corn. Here’s a painful reality: what has ears but doesn’t listen? Someone who lacks empathy. We’ve all had the devastating experience of telling someone how a particular incident made us feel…

“The New Life”

“The New Life”

September 4, 2023

Who do you respect and admire the most? What is it about them that you strive to emulate? What are they able to do that makes you think, “I could never do that!” But what if they came to you and said, “Hey – you know that thing I do? I want you…

“The Loving Life”

“The Loving Life”

Who drops a piece of paper on a clean freak’s desk? Why would a highly productive person put “sit on couch” in their calendar? When is it a good idea to show up at someone’s apartment unannounced when they’ve specifically told you they need…

“The Gentle Life”

“The Gentle Life”

Every day, 100,000 new songs are added to Spotify, 59,961,600 posts hit Instagram, 492,480,000 Tweets are sent, and 293,760,000,000 emails arrive in inboxes around the world. With so much information hurled at as, the only way to be heard is by…

“The Compassionate Life”

“The Compassionate Life”

Do you remember the last time a friend told you they didn’t get the job they were so sure was theirs? What about that lunch where your coworker opened up about the pain of being served divorce papers? Or when a child expressed the sadness of no…

“The United Life”

“The United Life”

A coffee farmer in Honduras. A professor in South Korea. A coal miner in West Virginia. At first glance, these three people seem to have nothing in common. But, if they have made Jesus the single most defining element of their identity, the…

“The Dead Life”

“The Dead Life”

The logic in Colossians 3:3 is clear: if you want to live a new life in Christ, you need to die to your old life. Becoming a disciple of Jesus will cost you! It requires that you deny yourself and put your desires as secondary—every moment of…

“The Risen Life”

“The Risen Life”

February 19, 2023

As Dallas Willard has said, Jesus came not just to get people into heaven, but to get heaven into people. As God’s people, we are called to a new life—a life of joy, peace, patience and gentleness. A life free of sin, shame, and selfishness…

“Partnering”

“Partnering”

January 15, 2023

What if Christlikeness became your standard operating procedure, in all circumstances? Imagine a day when you don’t have to work so hard to love God and love others—even when your plans snap loose, when you get passed up for the promotion…

“Owning”

“Owning”

January 8, 2023

How close you follow Jesus is up to you. You’re probably working to make money, working to stay healthy, working on your house, and working on your parenting. But what are you doing to stay close to Jesus? You’re busy doing important things, but…

“Gracious Truth-Tellers”

“Gracious Truth-Tellers”

August 30, 2022

Throughout the New Testament, the Apostle Paul paints a picture of spiritual friendship that involves both encouragement and accountability. We’re not given a license to be a jerk for Jesus, and we’re not called to pile guilt & shame onto each…

“The Fellowship of the Mat”

“The Fellowship of the Mat”

August 14, 2022

We’re wired for relationship and were created for community. The kind of friends we need are ones who love God and love us—and who help us to love God more. Rarely does a person drift into spiritual friendship. It takes determination…

“Patient Not Prickly”

“Patient Not Prickly”

Today, with pet peeves and politics, we are so easily offended by what people say or don’t say, eat or don’t eat, what they are reading or what they are watching, it’s no longer seen as a weakness to be easily offended but it’s seen as right. It’s…

“Big Things in Small Ways”

“Big Things in Small Ways”

Has Jesus lived up to your expectations? Maybe you thought life would be different—you thought marriage would be easier; you thought you’d find more fulfillment in your career; you thought your family would react differently to your faith. If life…

“Unlearned Helplessness”

“Unlearned Helplessness”

February 27, 2022

In the previous message, we left Elijah in the depth of despair, feeling disillusioned and dejected by God—quite possibly in a state of learned helplessness if we analyze the situation with a lens of modern psychology. Perhaps not unlike you today…

“The People Pleasing Prison”

“The People Pleasing Prison”

February 7, 2021

There are recurring symptoms of approval addiction: cringing whenever you receive criticism; wearing yourself out trying to manage the perceptions of others; derailing plans when you sense disapproval; losing sleep over the possibility that…
