“I’m sorry.” Just two words, and sometimes very difficult to say. But if you’ve ever begun a conversation with those two words, there is a lot of promise in them too, because those words open the door to overcoming conflict. In this message we'll focus on learning how to say "I'm sorry" with some very practical words from Scripture.

The Christian life is harder than the non-Christian life because people will hurt you and you don't get to turn around and treat them the same way. Instead, followers of Jesus are to forgive and reconcile. In this message, Pastor John walks us through the steps to get to the place of forgiveness and reconciliation.

Conflict brings both bad opportunities and good. The bad side is when we try to escape conflict or attach others in response to it. The good side is when we use the peacemaking steps that Jesus gave us in Matthew 18:15-20. In today's message, Pastor John addresses the first practical steps of peacemaking.

There is a great deal of conflict in our world right now, but this is not really anything new. Conflict is an inevitable fact of life in this world. God's aim is not for us to be completely free of conflict, but to resolve our conflicts using the wisdom and ways that He has provided. In this message, Pastor John reviews responses to conflict that are peace faking and peace breaking, before we see God's great peace making response.

Jesus was a man! No big revelation huh! Or is it? In today’s message we will be talking about what we can learn about manhood from Jesus. He had fierce love for His father and for all of us, and was willing to battle sin and death for us! Men, let’s follow Him into glory!

Do you avoid sorrow? Most people have all kinds of strategies to avoid it. Jesus teaches us that sorrow is a reality and to embrace sorrow and let him turn it into joy!

Stoking spiritual fire in our hearts takes the Holy Spirit stirring the coals of the church by convincing us of sin, and blowing in the fresh oxygen of grace at the same time by convincing us of the goodness of Christ to sinners. In addition, we must be convinced of judgement and that it is placed on Him so that we may go free and fight our sin from victory, not for victory.

Does the fire of your faith need to be stoked so that it does not grow cold? In today’s message we look at the role of the Holy Spirit as oxygen stoking our fire while He lives in us through the power of Jesus' words as we abide in Him!

Waiting can be one of the most irritating experiences we face, and no day exemplifies waiting perhaps more than Christmas. In today's message from Luke 2, Pastor John looks at the brief story of a man named Simeon who's life teaches us some important truths of how to process waiting, and the dawning realization that Jesus is enough.

Google and other online search engines process nearly 100,000 searches per second every day! Remarkably, upwards of 20% of all those searches are questions that have never been asked before.

In this message, Pastor John looks at the story of the magi's visit to Bethlehem to help us understand how to find the answers to life's most important question.
