Fear Of Failing / Fear Not / Week 2

None of us want to look insecure. We want to show a version of ourselves that is put together and in control. One that hides our past failures and only shows the best of us. But we know who we are. We know where we've messed up, and the fear of ever being in that place again often keeps us from really living. Maybe your past failures have even kept you at arms length from God? How do we break out of the mediocre and have the confidence to pursue who God made us to be? Let's talk about that!

Fear Of What Others Think / Fear Not / Week 1

What if you don't like me? What if they think less of me? What if I get laughed at? What if they're really not cool with me? The second guessing, the worry, the doubt.

Let's talk about it!

The Antidote To Selfishness / One Another / Week 3

We're pretty selfish people. Even when we do good, our motivation is often how good we look or what we might get in return. And even when we do try to help with good intentions, we can still get burned. So do we look out for ourselves or risk being the sucker who helped? Jesus had a better way to look at it.

Why We Need Community / At The Movies / Week 4

Our schedules are too busy. We're trying to raise a family. Other people have hurt me. Life is safer alone. These are some of the things we might tell ourselves that keep us away from investing time in building community around us. But regardless of your personality, God wired YOU for community. And there is something else incredible that happens that you just can't get anywhere else. Let's talk about what that is!

Does God Love Me Even When I Walk Away? / At The Movies / Week 3

Have you ever known what God wanted you to do, but instead decided to do something else? Like you knew it was wrong, but did it anyway? Or maybe you just thought your way was better. How do moments like this affect how God feels about you? Most of us would think He would be angry and that we need to do some good to get back on good terms. But is that it? What does the Bible say we should do in moments like this?
