Jesus died for communion. It’s serious. In this message, Pastor John shares five directions to look that illustrate the meaning behind Lord's Supper.

In the feeding of the 5000, Jesus teaches us the important principles of rhythm, compassion, and thankfulness that lead to a life of multiplied blessings.

In the parable of the talents, Jesus teaches us how to turn potential into productivity while we wait for His return.

God has given us resources to manage for His glory. It’s a waste to do otherwise. In this look at the parable of the shrewd manager, we learn how to think about and use our money properly.

Author Philip Yancey said, “The only thing harder than forgiveness is the alternative.” In this message on forgiveness from Jesus’ parable of the unforgiving servant, we learn some important principles on forgiveness.

When it comes to cross-bearing, we are not always successful or obedient. In this second message on cross-bearing, we look at Peter's denial and restoration, and how to pick up the cross after failure.

Think of the disturbing images in your life. The things you wish weren’t there. The hardships. The trials. The things we would rather put off. The things you have to do that you don’t like to think about. Think of what’s grotesque in your life. This is your cross, your place to die to yourself and live for Christ. Martin Luther said, “A religion that gives nothing, costs nothing, and suffers nothing, is worth nothing.”

We’re all looking for something. Looking for love. Meaning or acceptance. Looking for answers. In the U.S., Google processes 78,000 searches/minute, every minute of every day. This message is about searching, as well. The mission and ministry of Jesus was to announce that what we are really searching for, the search for what really matters, is over.

The unwasted life is a focused life - focused on the opportunities (the kairos moments) that God provides.

Two significant moments in Jesus’ life take place at the Temple in Jerusalem. In both He makes the declaration that He is about His Father’s business. In the message, Pastor John asks the questions, “Who’s your father?” and “How’s His business?”
