EasterStraight_WEB.jpg

Easter Sunday is the day we celebrate Jesus raising up from the dead and walking out of the grave. We’ve recorded a special Easter Gathering to watch at home at 6:15am on Easter Sunday. After viewing, walk outside and enjoy the sunrise. What a beautiful picture of all of us scattering around our city to worship Jesus together at that moment!

Lent | The Three Enemies

Sermon 2 - Three Enemies-100.jpg

Sermon by Michael Bailey on March 8, 2020.

What is really causing problems in your life? Is it strictly your circumstances or something material? The Bible paints a much broader picture - sin influenced and birthed by what followers of Jesus for millennia have called "the three enemies of the soul." This opens up a whole other lens by which we can understand good, evil and the tug-of-war we sense in our souls and society. 


Lent | Fighting With Fasting

Sermon 1 - Fasting-100.jpg

Sermon by Michael Bailey on March 1, 2020.

Throughout church history, Christians have often used specific times of year to focus on spiritual formation together. Lent is one of these seasons. We're joining with the practice of millions of Christians across the globe during Lent to focus on fasting. Fasting is more than just refraining from food, but something God uses to give us more than we initially think.

Sermon Michael Bailey on February 23, 2020.

For the past 4 weeks, we've been looking at rationality behind the Christian faith. Yet, there is a lot we haven't addressed. This week we take a dive into what you wanted to know with a time of question and response.


Why I'm A Christian | Doubting Your Doubts

WIAC-Header.jpg

Sermon by Michael Bailey on February 16, 2020.

Doubt is the inescapable reality of life in the modern world. The Christian life can sometimes feel like a mixed bag of belief and disbelief - faith and doubt. Doubt doesn't have to feel unassailable. Here we'll see how followers of Jesus can deal with doubt faithfully and wisely. 

Why I'm A Christian | The Bible

WIAC-Header.jpg

Sermon by Michael Bailey on February 9, 2020.

The Bible is much more than a book. It's a library of human and divine origin telling a unified story that leads us to Jesus. So, is it crazy for Christians to trust and submit to the Bible?

Why I'm A Christian | Jesus

WIAC-Header.jpg

Sermon by Brandon Clements on February 2, 2020.

The resurrection of Jesus sets Christianity apart from any other religion, in that it is an historical, falsifiable event. In this sermon we discuss biblical and historical evidence for the resurrection and argue that the best explanation for all of the evidence is that it truly happened.

Why I'm A Christian | God

WIAC-Header.jpg

Sermon by Brandon Clements on January 26, 2020.

This sermon tackles the question "How do we know God exists?" We look at the best explanation given all the evidence we have at our disposal, including exterior arguments for the existence of God (cosmological and teleological arguments) and intrinsic arguments (moral argument and existential argument). Anchored in Romans 1, we trace Paul's answer to this question and what he says is our deepest problem when seeking this answer.
