Book: Exodus

God has done great things for us, liberating us from the slavery of sin. Now he invites us to become a part of his rescue plan for our neighbors and the nations.

In a brand new teaching from our series called “Begin Again,” Pastor J.D. invites us to rediscover God’s purposes for our church.

The world seems darker and more confusing by the day, but now is not a time to shrink back in fear. It’s a moment for us to renew our commitment.

In this teaching from Exodus 13, Pastor J.D. invites us to learn from the Old Testament people of God, who—like us—were coming out of their own trauma into a new land of opportunity.

Many of us felt confident and invincible as young kids, but as we grew older, insecurities set in and we started questioning ourselves. Pastor J.D. explains that those insecurities aren’t really a reflection of ourselves — they’re a reflection of our view of God.

Self-improvement is an American obsession, and the self-help industry churns out an endless supply of books, seminars and training programs, raking in about $10 billion each year! But Pastor J.D. teaches about the real path to confidence and significance.

When God doesn’t show up when we want him to, we tend to get worried and anxious, which often leads to disaster.

Sometimes when we’re afraid or in a bind, we try to bargain with God. We’ve all been there — trying to get Jesus to agree to our demands.

Work may seem like a strange topic to include in a series on building strong, godly families. But in actuality, our approach to work has an enormous effect on our homes.
