About this week's message: Church hurt can produce scars. It can also turn people into skeptics. The Pharisees were not engaging in anything illegal or immoral within their leadership roles; instead, they were characterized by legalism, condemnation, and control. We'll cover how to respond in a healthy way to church hurt.
Key Phrase: “Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus.” Mark 3:2

About this week's message: We can be so arrogant and condescending towards certain groups of people. The mercy and grace of Jesus is extended to you as well as to “those” people you might view beneath you. I love the fact that Jesus chose Matthew, one of “those” tax collectors, who would have a profound global effect for the gospel, even today!
Key Phrase: “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” Mark 2:16

About this week's message: We don’t know the backstory of how this man became paralyzed. Jesus, however, saw beyond his physical condition and wanted to heal him of his real need: the forgiveness of his sins. This declaration revealed a different kind of paralyzation within the audience: pharisaical paralyzation.
Key Phrase: “Who can forgive sins but God alone?” Mark 2:7

About this week's message: We live in a county and a culture where the darkness is growing. Demonic forces are real and the battle between spiritual forces is alive and well today. This darkness brings about lots of pain and scars that many are unaware of its source. The only answer is Jesus! Key Phrase: “I know who you are - the Holy One of God!” Mark 1:24

About the series: Peter’s death was imminent, and he knew his time was short. This reality prompted Peter to write again but this time his tone was more intense. He wanted the early church to know: 1. God loves this world and is determined to rescue it! And 2. God will confront and deal with evil for the sake of a new forever future!
About this week's message: The many false teachers in Peters’ day lived with their lives of sin and immorality with little to no consequences. Therefore, they mocked that judgment was not coming. Peter gives evidence that God ultimately will bring divine justice based upon how God has brought it in the past.
Key Phrase: “He did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on it ungodly people.” 2 Peter 2:5

About this week's message: Peter was adamantly against what some false teachers were teaching: the stories of Jesus were made up stories. Peter was not only an eyewitness of the glory of Christ, but the prophets of God described the same things. These false accusations are still around today.
Key Phrase: “For we did not follow cleverly devised stories…” 2 Peter 1:16
