Our culture is starving for kindness. But is it still possible to find common ground in a polarized and divided society? Let's find some clues together in a crazy story from the life of the 1st century church. God can show up in very unexpected ways -- if we're open to following his lead.

Have you ever intentionally walked into a situation wanting to fail? Probably not. Yet, despite our best efforts, life is full of setbacks; we fall short more often than we'd like. When we fail, it's always best to fail forward, even though it’s easy to fall back into our old ways, habits, and lifestyles. Failing forward means learning from our setbacks and that helps us gain stronger and quicker comebacks. Join us this weekend as we see Jesus building people up, extending grace for their return, and teaching us the true power of failing forward with faith.

Have you ever been driving, desperate for directions, and without warning, your GPS malfunctions? Suddenly, we find ourselves asking, "Where am I going?" While driving, you can easily make a U-turn or backtrack at the next exit, but in life, without direction, we’re stuck. But get this—Jesus specializes in revealing direction when we make room for Him. Maybe it's in the quiet morning with God's Word. Or an "ah-ha" moment during a chat with a friend. Like when Jesus broke through to His disciples waiting and praying in the upper room. Suddenly, the direction was clear, even if all the details weren’t. Friends, these spiritual lightbulb moments happen when we make room for God to move and speak. We see the disciples do that in an upper room, and He still meets with people in places and spaces today. So, let's step into the upper room together and see what adventure awaits!

Every single one of us has this built-in craving for belonging—it's undeniable. We're on this constant hunt, trying to fill that void with stuff, people, or places
that feel right. We're so driven to belong that we join all sorts of groups, purchase memberships, and subscriptions, and even latch onto certain behaviors to fit in. We
are hardwired to connect, and so was Jesus. He had his circle of friends and special places like the village of Bethany. Join us this weekend as our Spiritual Geographic
series takes us to “Bethany, A Place to Belong."

Any control freaks in your life? The truth is we all struggle with a desire to control the world around us. It's exhausting and leads to an immense amount of frustration. This can especially be true when we encounter a desert road, a place where we seemingly have no control and have been called to walk a path that might be painful or lonely. On this desert road, look for the working of the hand of God as he leads, provides, and opens doors for the gospel. The desert road may be difficult, but it also has definite eternal purpose. Lean in as you live in the flow of the gospel.

There are always 24 hours in a day and 7 days in a week, that’s the way time works. We don’t have to stop, but it is a good thing to regularly hit life’s pause button to connect with God. This weekend we will see how Jesus reclaimed some of his time to make time for the things that matter most.
