Love Our WHAT?!?!
Series: Uncovered
In today's Gospel reading, Jesus tells us something pretty shocking. He doesn't just want us to love those who love us, or do good to those who do good to us. Instead, he tells us that we need to love even our...enemies? How is that fair? And how is that even possible after all the hurt or harm they may have caused to us?

    Navigating Culture Shock
    Series: Uncovered
    The way God defines "cursed" and "blessed" are very different from the way the world defines those words. Today, we'll see how a proper understanding of God's definitions of those two words makes all the difference when it comes to navigating the "culture shock" of Christian suffering.

    Childlike? Or Childish?
    How's your spiritual appetite? Do you crave God's Word like a newborn baby craves milk? As the Apostle Peter reminds us, we need to!

Watch Pastor Troy's sermon to see how we can get the craving we need for God's Word, and build habits and rituals into our lives to make sure we're consistently and faithfully satisfying our cravings!

    What We Want to Hear? Or What Needs to Be Said?
    Series: Uncovered
    It's easy to gain a following, if you simply tell people what they want to hear. So it's a temptation for the church and for individual Christians to either proclaim a message that scratches people's itching ears, or to surround ourselves with voices that always agree with us and tell us what we want to hear. But today, we see what God's agenda is for Christians, and for the Christian Church--to preach and live the message of God's truth found in the Scriptures--even when we, or others don't want to hear it!

    Facing the Fear of Rejection
    Series: Uncovered
    When someone hears good news, you'd expect them to respond with joy, not rejection. And yet, God tells us in his Word that when we share the best news of Jesus as the Savior of the world, not only might we experience rejection. We should expect it! But why? And how should we respond to that rejection? Watch Pastor Troy's sermon, "Facing the Fear of Rejection" to find out!

    Purpose, Power, Promises
    Series: Uncovered
    Neither baptism or anointing seem to be very visually impressive. But as we see in today's service, what our eyes see, differs from what God decrees! Watch Pastor Troy's sermon, "Purpose, Power, Promises" to see how God uses seemingly ordinary acts, like baptism, to give us three things we might not expect. To see that, we need to dig deeper than outward appearances, and see what God decrees in his Word about such simple acts!

    From Slaves, to Sons and Daughters
    One of the important parts of Christmas presents is the gift tag. Without them to tell us who the gift is for, or who the gift is from, gift opening is confusing, and the gives are far less appreciated, when we don't know they've been given for us! Likewise, now that we've "unwrapped" the greatest Christmas gift of Jesus, we also need to know who this greatest gift is for. Because if we don't know he was given for us, we won't appreciate or be thankful for this gift! Watch Pastor Troy's sermon, "From Slaves to Sons and Daughters" to help us see that this gift was given for "slaves" like us, but how that gift changes our identity and lives!

    The Ones You’d Never Expect
    A recurring plotline in movies, TV shows, and books, is that in the end, the person who is either the bad guy, or the hero, is someone nobody expected. These plot twists surprise and entertain us, so authors continue to find creative ways to write it into their stories. The Author of Life also likes to use people and places you'd never expect as the main characters in the story of life, and the story of salvation! But not just to entertain. As we'll see in Pastor Troy's sermon, God uses the ones you'd never expect for a far more important purpose!
