Everyone has a picture in their mind of what it means to be blessed by God. That picture, if it’s wrong, can discourage and oppress us and even distort how we understand God and where we stand with Him. This message looks at Jesus’ picture of the blessed life and how it’s at odds with how we typically envision it.
Luke 6:20-26

Luke 6:12-19
Many people who have walked away from religion have done so because they felt that the rules stifled grace and the people were marked by hypocrisy. This message looks at how Jesus sets people free when religion threatens compassion.
Luke 6:1-11
When people talk about the resurrection, some just speak of it as a metaphor for a new start or the hope that is born from the ashes. Jesus didn’t really rise from the grave, did He? Others accept that Jesus’ resurrection was real, but when they read about the resurrection of His followers, they picture spirits floating on clouds strumming harps. This message looks at what hope Easter really promises and the resurrection that is available to all who trust in Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15:42-49
Good Friday is a uniquely Christian celebration, but it is rooted in a Jewish event full of symbolism pointing to its significance. This message looks at the Passover and how it helps us to understand the meaning of the final hours of Jesus’ life on this earth.
Exodus 12:1-13
We assume that if we do what God wants, our path will be smooth. Often, however, we face one obstacle after another. This message looks at what God provides to help us through the trials.
Exodus 5:20-6:9
