Have a Great Life | A Great Life Will Have Family Problems

Joseph’s brothers threw him in a pit, sold him into slavery, and said, “Have a great life!” But God didn’t forget about Joseph. And Joseph didn’t forget about God. He went on to live a truly great life. Turns out that a great life isn’t one without any troubles. In fact, the greatest lives come out of great struggle. Joseph found courage in the face of cruelty. Integrity when facing temptation. Forgiveness for those who hated and mistreated him. Trust in God when he was in the pit and faithfulness at the pinnacle. Wanna have a great life? Let Joseph show you what it takes.

Turning into Your Dad | Father's Day

A lot of us will arrive at that point when we realize: “we’ve turned into our dad.” Depending on who you are, this might be something you’d welcome and even aspire to, something you laugh at, something you resist, or something that is one of your greatest fears — or that you’d even consider a tragedy. Regardless of the father that each of us had, the best thing a father can do is help their child grow in resemblance of their heavenly father. Becoming like our heavenly father is a beautiful goal for life. This Father’s Day weekend, we’ll hear from Executive Pastor Luke Erickson, and his Dad, Dave Erickson, who will together share some key ways that dads and anyone with influence can help their kids and those they’re leading be shaped in the image of their heavenly father.

Six Feet Apart | How Do We Explain All the Suffering in the World?

The Coronavirus has disrupted everything – and not just our life rhythms, schools, jobs, and the economy – it’s instilled more fear and uncertainty than we’ve ever seen in our lifetimes. It’s shaken us to the core. As a result, so many today are not just searching for toilet paper; we’re searching for meaning, for answers, for hope. We begin a new series of messages that will wrestle with some of the toughest questions we’re facing right now because of COVID-19. Why is this happening? How do we make sense of all the suffering? How do we find hope? Where’s God in all of it? What exactly does Christianity teach and what difference does it make right now? No one’s interested in the party-line, simplistic, “Sunday School” answers. Even though we have to keep six feet apart right now, let's come together for an important conversation to help us find our way when life doesn’t make sense.
