Removing the Barriers to Abundant Life
This Lent we will be following Jesus on his journey from Samaria to Jerusalem in a series called “On the Road.” In this first message, we’ll meet 3 men Jesus encountered along the way who though well intended, let other things get in the way of actually following Jesus. Have we counted the cost? Is there something holding us back or distracting us from actually hitting the road with Jesus and going where He has called us to go? *Christ’s Church…
Really: Do I Really Need Jesus?
Jesus didn’t present himself as one of many options for a good and meaningful life. He presented himself as the only option for a life that’s as good and meaningful as it was meant to be, and the only hope for life beyond the grave. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.
Really: The Quest for the Real Jesus Part 2
Did Jesus REALLY believe he was the Son of God? Other religions accept him as a prophet and good example, but not God. Many skeptics claim his deity was an invention of the early church. What did he say about himself? What should we believe about Jesus? *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.
Really: The Legend of Jesus?
Guest speaker Tim Ghali begins our new series, Really?!? In this message Tim explores our doubts and tensions concerning the historicity of Jesus. We ask if the story of Jesus, as people like Bill Maher would have us believe, is a plagiarized legend taken from other ancient near east cultures… *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

Traces of Promise: The Tension Gap

Fish Can Fly

More: Spirit of Expectancy
For months God has been stirring up a common theme through CCA’s preachers and during our times of prayer; to believe Him for more than we can ask or imagine, to live as if His promises are true. At Grace Chapel they’ve had a similar experience, sensing a desire for more of the life Jesus has invited us to, more of His love, more of His Spirit. As Christ’s Church continues exploring a strategic partnership with Grace Chapel, we’re excited to present the…
