Unstuck part 2: Gather & Scatter

Sometimes we get stuck in the American church because there is no persecution. It's so easy for us to focus on our gatherings because it's safe. This takes away the need for God's people to scatter and share the Good News. If we are not intentional about this second part, it simply doesn't happen.

Unstuck part 1: Why I Tithe

We dive in to our series "Unstuck", looking at things that bring us freedom and help us grow in our relationship with God. One of those things is tithing and being obedient to God with our finances. Tithing is a simple act of obedience that helps us keep God first in our lives, helps us trust God more, and helps the church spread the gospel of Jesus! So, let's answer the question "Why do/don't I tithe?"

Stuck part 7: Forgiveness

Unforgiveness is one of the most debilitating in our walk with God, and our life in general. What they did to you was not right. It hurt! We acknowledge that.

Not forgiving someone doesn't hurt them, it makes you stuck!

Stuck part 5: Anxiety

Anxiety is something that affects many more of us than we know. Today we are not talking about medical anxiety, but the type of anxiety that comes out of fear or nervousness about what might happen. We don't want that. We want peace. So, let's take a look at how we can start to make the transition from anxiousness to peace.

Stuck part 4: Busyness & Hurry

Most people in American are just too busy to live emotionally healthy and spiritually rich lives. But Jesus has a different way...a better way! We're going to look at Matthew 11:28-30 in a way you may have not seen it before.

Stuck part 3: Negativity

If we're not careful, negativity can invade every area of our lives. We can even let negativity ruin the best of situations. So, how do we overcome negativity and find the positive in every circumstance?

So, what does it look like to not fall into the trap of sin? How do we proactively win the battle against temptation and sin in our lives?
