Most New Year’s resolutions fail by next Friday—a day known as "Quitter’s Day."

📉 But following Jesus isn't about a one-time wish; it's about a daily habit. In this kickoff to our new series, we explore why "Hanging Out with God" is the essential first step in running the race of faith. Learn the "Jesus Pattern" of prayer and how to turn your spiritual life from manual to automatic. 🏃‍♂️💨

Let's tackle a few thoughts:

The wrapping paper is in the bin, the "new" has worn off the gifts, and the holiday hype is behind us. But what if the story isn't over? 🎁

In our final message of the year, we’re looking at why the Grinch didn't just stay on the mountain—he turned the sleigh around. From the "Who-ville" return trip to the story of a charred Stradivarius violin, we explore God not as a "scrap metal dealer," but as a Master Restorer.

Watch to discover:

• Why the "Sunday After" is the start of the Long Game.
• The difference between coping with a mess and total restoration.

Don't just "cope" with the post-holiday slump. Join us to see how the Master is making all things new.

Welcome to "Lights, Camera, Christmas!"

In this series, we step out of the holiday rush to examine the core themes of Advent through the eyes of the Christmas story characters.

A Surprise for Week 4... 🕯️

Today we will light the 4th candle of Advent—the candle of Love and unpack the faithfulness of Mary as a model for how we can live our lives in this crazy time.

If you feel 'entangled' in the mess of the news or the stress of the season, this message is for you. We’re mapping our fears to a Love that is stronger than the shadows. Don’t let the darkness extinguish your light. The King is on the move.
