What is forgiveness without justice? Do we really understand justice? Dietrich Bonhoeffer, once offered the idea that to understand forgiveness without understanding God‘s wrath and justice is cheap grace. Join us this week as we wrestle with justice and ask the question do we actually want justice?

Does forgiveness mean for forgetting? So often when we think of forgiveness, we think that God commands us to pretend like something never happened, to forget it and move on. But what we see in Psalm 18 is a radically different reality. Christian forgiveness is not about forgetting, it’s about trusting God to just set things right.

What do we do when we find ourselves helpless and crying out for God? Is he really there? What does his presence look like? What is it about a life and death encounter that can leave us transformed for the better or for the worse? Join us as we explore David’s story of how God intervened in his life and left him transformed.

The resurrection of Christ is more than a climatic moment in the gospels. It is the remedy to the story of Scripture and the launch pad of the church. This Easter we hope that in examining the responses of Jesus’ resurrection we can process our own response to the Gospel and understand the purpose it drives us toward.

Palm Sunday is here! And as we close out Colossians we can see how Paul used the same themes of Palm Sunday throughout Colossians to provide it’s readers with hope, peace, and guidance in Christ Jesus.

The Gospel doesn’t just call us to a new life one day. It calls us to a new life here and now. It calls us to seek out the heavenly here on Earth. Join us as we unpack what Paul means when he encourages us to seek the “things above.”

So often we present the gospel as a finish line to our lives: the climatic move of returning to God after a life running from him. But Paul presents it as a launching point for a life to come. Join us as we take a look at how the Bible pushes us forward into a life of joy, pease, and holiness in the pursuit of Christ.

We see two prayers for the Church in Colossae, and neither one is for deliverance. What we do see in these prayers is how God equips us to do more than survive the battles of life. Join us as we dig into how God built His people to walk in His glory through the storms of life and how we can find His peace in trying times.

When Paul writes to Colossae he is writing to a city in decline and a people who are worried about their future, under pressure, and divided. Yet his letter offers a new hope in a trying time. This Christ-centered letter may just be the word we need right now. Join us as we start our walk through Colossians and examine how Christ alone offers a path forward when all hope is lost.
