Adventurosity

Most people love the idea of becoming more generous. But putting generosity into practice is easier said than done when so many of us are short on time and money.

Discover how genuine love, rooted in Christ, transforms our fears, uncertainties, and comforts into an adventurous journey of “adventurosity.”

A Nap Is Good for Your Soul

After defeating the false prophets of Baal, Elijah is on the run from the Queen who has vowed to kill him. He’s exhausted, burned out, and just wants to quit.

And could we experience that kind of life every day? That’s the question Jesus answers in one of his most controversial messages found in John 6:25-71.

The True Vine

Unconditional love is one of the most prized and beautiful virtues. It gives life to those who receive it and life to those who give it. It’s also substituted for easy alternatives like people-pleasing. And there is no truth, joy and life in any of that. So when people-pleasing threatens to prevent us from enjoying love as it was meant to be, how can we mind the kind of love that gives us life? A message from the life of…

The Order of the Towel

Selfish ambition can be the downfall of both church and society. The antidote to selfish ambition and vain conceit is humility, something our society might consider weakness. Moving from a self-centered life to an others-centered life involves risk, commitment, vulnerability, and trust. *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.

From Insecurity to Hospitality

Insecurity may not be the first thing that comes to mind when we think about the barriers to building and maintaining a healthy community. But how many times do we hesitate to invite people into our homes because we’re afraid our kids will disobey or they won’t like our cooking? How often do we resist talking to new people because we’re worried about saying something silly or maintaining small talk? Hospitality is life-giving and it helps us to be better…

The language of silence holds space for ordinary and difficult moments to become holy. *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.
