The Whole Story is a four-session sermon series that will challenge and equip your students to understand that unlike the story of separation that the world has told them is true about themselves, Jesus is telling a different story. Jesus’ story is one of wholeness, where all are loved no matter who they are or what they have done. Jesus’ story of wholeness will satisfy and transform those who believe it. And this same Jesus is inviting each and every one of your students to begin to allow His story of wholeness to take root in their own hearts so that they can then begin to love the world as Jesus did.

He Is, is a four-week series that looks at the story of the burning bush and what God says about Himself while revealing Himself to Moses. Oftentimes we make up characteristics about God or have no clue who God really is. Our belief is formed by the culture around us and how we grew up. The goal of this series is to take this story and focus on how God reveals Himself so students can have a better idea of who God is.

Follow: Learning What It Means To Be A Disciple, a four-session sermon series, will help your students understand that when they give their lives to Jesus, they aren’t just making a decision about their life after death; they are making a decision about their present life and what it means to follow Jesus as His disciple.

We have a lot of questions about our faith — how do I read my Bible, how do I pray, or how do I make a difference? What if the answers to these questions are not as difficult as we think they are? In How Do I, a four-week sermon series, we will be answering some of these questions to help us grow in our faith.

Do you ever find that it can be lonely living as a believer? For thousands of years, God’s people have had to balance living out their faith while being surrounded by those who do not follow God. Sometimes, they may even live among people who are hostile toward God’s people. This four-week devotional is meant to address this very feeling. In Esther: The Time is Now, you will spend time getting to know a cast of people, including Esther and Mordecai. As Jewish people in the Persian Kingdom, they deal with what it means to be God’s people in the midst of a culture that does not honor or worship God. We are continually faced with the same question that Mordecai asked Esther: What if you are meant for a time such as this? The answer is that we are made for such a time. And the time? The Time is Now.

Have you ever struggled to know what God wanted you to do in any given situation? Whether you’ve just given your life to Jesus or you’ve been following Him for years, living like He wants us to isn’t always as clear or easy as we’d like it to be. This four-week devotional will confront this very problem. James: The Walk of Faith will take on one of the biggest questions that all believers ask every day, “How should my faith in Jesus change the way I deal with ______?” Whether it’s sin & temptation, trials, wisdom, speech, money & possessions, time, or just the people around us, Jesus has a plan for how we should walk with Him. Our faith in Him, over time, should move us to live and look more like Him day after day. A relationship with Jesus is a lifelong journey, and in his short letter, James shows us how Jesus’ life and teachings should forever change the way we walk with Him through our lives.
