Trust is the reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety, etc. of a person or thing; confidence. Trust is central to relationships, business and family. Join us for a new four-week series “Trust,” as we look at how to become a trustworthy person, build trust, extend trust to others and restore trust once it is destroyed.

Regrets. We all have them. A missed opportunity, a poor financial decision, a boundary crossed, a relationship damaged. Life is filled with “if onlys.” Sometimes they haunt us. Sometimes they control us. Sometimes they define us. So how do you handle regret? Do you ignore it? Deny it? Just move on?

Most of the people we look to as models of faith had some “if onlys” in their lives. It was in the midst of their experiences that God became real hope re-ignited. Join us as we explore the faithfulness of God in the midst of life’s regrets.

Do you have a “High Definition” television? HD TV’s are extremely popular these days because the picture is much sharper, cleaner, and well, just better than “standard definition.” You might say HD offers us more clarity. We believe the Bible offers clarity on the best way to live, and how to handle even the most difficult issues in life. For the next five weeks we are going to look at what Scripture has to say about some of the hard issues students and their friends navigate through every day.

One of life’s biggest questions is this. Is there any hope? All of us at some point experience hardship and hurt and brokenness. And we certainly see it all around us. Where do we turn? Is there any hope? In this series we will look at the answers to these questions.

Hear many examples, many of them personal, of how each of us have “something big” that overshadows our daily lives and influences our actions and relationships. These big somethings can include illness, divorce, afflictions, addictions, etc. Hear an analogy between our overshadowing “big something” to the “mat” with which Jesus exhorted the blind man in John, Chapter 5 to “pick up and walk”. We all have a mat, that we carry but the good news is that God will always provide an escape and He has already provided us a Savior to help us carry the burden. It’s important to share our stories because God will use us to comfort and heal others.

God cares about the people who come into this place. He sent his son so that we can have a fresh start. We all have done sinful things and have disconnected at times from God, and sometimes we don’t think we can navigate back to him, or we believe we will be judged and condemned. But all who wish to do so can have a fresh start. “God took all of our sin and placed it on his son Jesus Christ, who bore the full brunt of condemnation and sin that you and I should have borne.” He paid the price and felt the full force when He died on the cross. He provided us the opportunity to have a completely fresh start.
