From "Vision Series 2020." This year, we take a different approach than regular.

Is there a way to get through 2020 without permanent damage to our soul? Or more: could there be a way to come out the other side more mature than ever before? And full of joy?

From the series "Gospel of Matthew." What do we do when other followers of Jesus fall into sin and wander away? Let them go? Act like it’s okay? Make them our enemy? In this teaching we explore Jesus’ practice for dealing with sin in the church. It’s one of Jesus’ most used and abused teachings, and yet, it has the potential to form the church into a community where God’s will is done.
