Unfinished Business: Easter Sunday
Amidst the shadows of uncertainty, we often find ourselves retreating from the challenges that confront us, seeking refuge in the familiar. But what happens when the potential beyond the fear is too good? Is it too late to return if we’ve already fallen back? Discover a surprising truth from the final pages of the Gospel of Mark that calls us to press on.
The Crux of Change (Good Friday)
Change can seem elusive, especially when faced with the weight of past hurts and the stubbornness of the human spirit. But amidst the complexity, the story of a Roman soldier at the cross reveals a profound truth: the death of Jesus holds the key to transformation. How can we tap into this power for change in our own lives?
Decision Time
Amidst the safety of the familiar, we often shy away from the unknown, clinging to the comfort of ‘’normal.’ What happens when Jesus challenges us to move beyond the confines of what’s expected and embrace a different way, even when it comes at great cost?
Whole-Person Healing
Have you ever wondered about God’s involvement in healing? In a world filled with pain, disease, and uncertainties, the quest for divine intervention can be both compelling and skeptical. Join us as we explore a pivotal moment in the Gospel of Mark, where Jesus confronts the complexity of healing, and discover how God’s new work extends beyond what’s seen.
Repentance: Humbling the Rebel in Us
Understanding God’s plan for “something new” – delivering the Good News of Christ involved preparation. We learned last week that His preparation was perfect, we will now go deeper landing in Mark 1:15 “…Repent and believe the Good News!” What challenges, what circumstance might God use in your life to prepare you for something new? Join us as we look at King David and exploring the need for humility, the essence of repentance.
Slow Time
The new year helps us anticipate new possibilities. But the stark reality of life’s brevity, as depicted in Psalm 90, raises a common struggle. How can we navigate this brief existence and find true fulfillment?
Patchwork Peace
Amidst the holiday cheer, the struggle for peaceful moments is real. Whether juggling holiday busyness or feeling a void of a relationship gone awry, the Christmas story promises an otherworldly peace. How can this promised peace be a reality in our lives today?
Peace in Conflict
Promises of future peace abound but our present conflicts persist, causing tension in daily interactions and personal relationships. How can the love of Christ reshape our affections, reorient our priorities, and bring a transformative perspective in order to bring a little bit of that future peace into the present? Join us in exploring 2 Corinthians 5 as we delve into Paul’s profound theology of reconciliation.
Sowing Seeds of Grace
Join us as we take a look at the history & legacy of CCA asking will God provide all that you need to sow generously? Do you see miraculous growth and an abundant harvest?
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. How can our gifts, both of our money and of our time, become a grace not just to others but a transformative gift to our own souls? Discover how genuine love, rooted in Christ, transforms our fears, uncertainties, and comforts into an adventurous journey of “adventurosity.”
From Past Regrets to New Beginning
New beginnings give us an opportunity to start fresh, make new friends and bring new energy into our lives. But how do we begin something new when our hearts and minds are so easily drawn to what went wrong in the past? How can we overcome regret to enter into what God has for us next?
