Jesus regularly challenged people’s assumptions about both wealth and eternity, and when he did so it revealed that the way we handle what’s temporary points to what we truly believe is permanent.

Many people experience faith primarily as something they attend or consume. But the moments that deepen faith most often come when we begin giving it away.

In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?

People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.

We take values like human dignity, compassion, and justice for granted today, but they only feel obvious because the church first introduced them.

Questioning Jesus, Part 3: He Is Jesus // Samer Massad
We’re all going to follow someone or something. If not Jesus, then who?

Our problem often isn’t that we ask God for too much but rather that we settle for too little.

We set out to build a church where the convinced and the curious could belong.

When life goes from bad to worse, will you simply react—or respond as if God is still with you?
The Response of a Lifetime, Part 1: God of the Pit // Andy Stanley
Your life isn’t defined by what’s been done to you, but by how you choose to respond—especially when every instinct says to react.
Be Rich Serve // Rahul Agarwal
What we organize our lives around shows our priorities. We need to organize around the priority of living the life Jesus wants us to live.

The hardest part of waiting isn’t always the delay itself. Sometimes it’s the uncertainty of why God seems absent when we need him most.
Worth The Wait, Part 2: Peace-filled Dependence // Joel Thomas
We’re convinced that if we just do the right things, life will turn out the way we want—but what do you do when the formula breaks and you’re left waiting, powerless, and discontent?

Our biology and culture push us toward impatience, but God calls us to trust that what he’s doing in us is worth the wait.

Too Good To Miss, Part 2: Jesus // Andy Stanley
People miss or dismiss Jesus sometimes, but when they do it’s usually for an unnecessary reason.
Too Good To Miss, Part 1: Future Proof // Andy Stanley
We don’t miss out in life because opportunities aren’t there—we miss out because we let deception, distraction, or disobedience rob us of them.
Three Reasons // Andy Stanley
Life is better connected—because spiritual growth, care, and accountability happen in relationships, not in rows.

My Story, My Song, Part 1: Bigger Than I Thought // Andy Stanley

Challenge Accepted, Part 3: Depending // Joel Thomas
Our trials, temptations, and tension shape us—and they have a way of revealing who or what we’re truly depending on.
