The Olympics have ended, and the USA has taken home the gold in men’s and women’s hockey — let’s go! The Olympics often bring out the best in sport and in patriotic fervor. Countries competing without killing — that was the original idea in 1896 when the Games were revived in Athens, Greece. Ephesians uses the imagery, passion, and language of citizens and nations to declare a new way of understanding our identity. When it works, Jesus said it would be the most powerful proof of Christ in us. A new way of thinking indeed. First time listening to our podcast? We’d like to get...

It’s rare, but it happens: you glance at your bank balance and realize… there’s more than you expected! I know, it's rare. But it could happen. When it comes to faith, many of us have underestimated our balance. We think we understand the Christian life, but it’s possible that we have an incomplete understanding of salvation. The truth is, you are richer than you think—and that's really ‘good news.’ First time listening to our podcast? We’d like to get to know you! Head over to: . Connect with us!

The GOAT problem: finding a better way to achieve than simply being 'better than.' The temptation to a comparison competition is so universal and strong it might seem inevitable. Maybe understanding where it came from - how it is part of the oldest battle in the universe - will help us find a better way. Maybe seeing Jesus in his own battle with 'better than will show us a better way. First time listening to our podcast? We’d like to get to know you! Head over to: . Connect with us!

A better way than striving to be “better than.” Life is full of comparison; our measures all seem to be set against someone else. Is all comparison healthy? Is there a better way to see people—especially those we feel competitive with? Can we really change something so fundamental as comparison? This weekend, we’ll look at one practice Jesus gives us that helps put comparison in its place. We don’t need to diminish people, and we won’t need to copy them. This is a better way than “better than.” First time listening to our podcast? We’d like to get to know you! ...

The GOAT… Greatest of All Time… what a great title—the pinnacle. Greatest. Ever. That must be nice… for the one. For as long as it lasts. The rest of us are left chasing the GOAT. We have a GOAT problem. We spend our lives striving to be better than, comparing ourselves, covered in the dust of competition, but never really feeling like winners. There is a better way than “better than.” From the earliest stories of Scripture to the words of Jesus, God offers us a way out of soul-emptying competition and into something that truly motivates and satisfies.

You have goals—dreams that need to be accomplished. Perhaps even a plan, a strategy, or a to-do list that leads to success. What if, in all our doing, we are leaving out the simple step to succeeding and enjoying success? There is a lie dwelling deep within us that fights against rest, upending our dreams and replacing our stories with "just one more day." Join us this Sunday for a joyful proposal.

Next year… Will it be different? Will it be better? Will I be different? Year-end lists, wrap-up videos, and snapshots of who we are and where we’ve been all appear at the close of something. They help us prepare for what comes next. New years can feel crushing—so much pressure to reflect and come up with a plan. So let’s simplify. This weekend, we’ll offer two prompts to get your planning started. They’re not answers; they’re arrows pointing you toward your own. They’re the key to a new-ish you.
