Hope is a Who
The beauty and wonder of the night sky can raise all sorts of questions in us about our purpose, our worth and whether there is something else out there. But the hopelessness of this world and the struggles we face personally often turn us into cynics. How can we find hope when the world seems to have little reason for it? Matthew 2:1-12 shares a story of some strangers from the east who had a supernatural encounter with the source…
Hope From Our Past
Often our past traps us in shame and guilt. But our past was never meant to define us, and God has been proving that since the very beginning. Advent offers us a chance to see the hope that God offers us through the Birth of 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.

Just Jesus
When we proclaim the good news to the poor, they experience that only in Jesus there is forgiveness, salvation and, the gift of eternal life with the Father. When we listen to His message, they can actually experience that. *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.

True Love
We are all searching for a community that we can truly belong to. So many of us find ourselves on a desperate journey to find it in the face of the picture-perfect relationships we see on television or social media. The only way to find true belonging is through true love, but the Bible offers a much different picture of what that is than many think. We will explore what true love is by looking at the Apostle Paul’s words…
Walking Wisely on the Outside to Open Doors Within
God invites us to share his life-giving, world-changing message with all people, but we often feel limited by our abilities, identity, desire and time. How does God help us to overcome these in order to make a difference in the world? Paul shows us a path in Colossians 4:2-6.
Garden to City
We gain the greatest ground as we unite as a whole to bring the whole gospel to the whole city. *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.
Let the Ground Rest
Rest is integral, not incidental to God’s work in the world. For good work to occur, so must rest. *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.
First Love First
God is at the center of our good and good is at the heart of our God. Our lives are full when we see them as an expression of the goodness of God. The Chase ends when we love God first and best. *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.
Walking Away from Our Achievement Culture
Our culture of achievement teaches us that we must perform and excel at something to find approval. But our achievements can leave us feeling empty when we rely on them for acceptance from others. How can we satisfy the desire to be accepted that lives deep down inside of us if personal achievement is not the solution? The Apostle Paul shares the answer to that in 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12 and 2 Corinthians 5:9.
