The idea of marriage is filled with so many myths: true love comes naturally; I didn’t marry the right person; if only they would recognize their need to change.

The focus of the book of 1 John is on love, but John really helps to redefine what love is – both God’s love for us and our love for him and others. He takes love out of the “define it how you want it, touchy feely stuff” to something much more tangible. Join us [...]

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.

Remember the sneakers? Remember the sweater? Remember the cute little song? It was always a beautiful day in Mr. Rogers’ neighborhood. And no matter who you were, you were invited to be his neighbor. It was an invitation to be in relationship—but not a real relationship. It was, after all, a TV show. Life can be a lot more complicated than Mr. Roger’s idyllic neighborhood. Maintaining real-life relationships that are healthy and authentic is challenging. Whether it’s a relationship with your parents, your friends or a stranger, Jesus’ call to “love your neighbor” has huge implications.

Join us for our new series on sex, dating and relationships called “Twilight: before dark.” Twilight is an extremely popular book series ( and now a movie) that follows the relationship of two teenagers. We’ll use this pop culture story as our back drop to talk about: moral boundaries, what the bible says about sex, purity as a lifestyle, dating and how far is too far, and choices and standards that lead to a healthy marriage.

Choices. We make a multitude of choices every day of our lives–from the coffee we order to the choices we make about how to raise our children. One way to realize the type of person we’ve become is to look at the choices we’ve made. When it comes to our relationship with God, what choices have we made in following Christ? What choices have been made for us?

Do you ever feel alone? Do you desire to have real relationships that you can share your life with? The reality is that we all long for these kind of friends. Join us for a new two-week series called “Disconnected” as we explore ways to get connected to others and build relationships.

Popular. Everybody wants to be popular. Everybody wants to have friends, be respected and be “in.” But what does it really mean to be popular? Is it the clothes you wear? It is how many friends you have? Is it about cars, music, or humility? As school starts, we’ll take a look at what it really means to be popular.
