In the Good Friday message, I talk about how Jesus' Last Passover became the first Lord's Supper. Bread. Wine. Body. Blood. What does it all mean?

What do Palm Sunday, 32 unfaithful kings, and whether or not you go to church have in common? More than you might think.
Sorry about the sound, we had technical problems.

The story of God’s people’s transition from the tribal leaders of Judges to a unified Kingdom under King David. Jesus has been strongly present in all the stories that come before Samuel, but this is where the promise of the Messianic Kingdom that will be fulfilled in Jesus Christ will start to be spoken of specifically. The promise made to David of the Kingdom of God, ruled by the greater King, whose reign will never end.
Samuel, Saul & David.

Jephthah and Sampson. These stories are intense.
Reality has sharp edges. The world is a dangerous place. God has rescued us, made us His people, and told us the kind of people we need to be if we’re going to be able to navigate through all the obstacles, distractions, and threats that are ahead of us.
“In those days Israel had no king; all the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes.” Judges 21:25
In THESE days we do have a king, His name is Jesus.

There is a pattern in the Book of Judges that will probably seem very familiar to you. If you're like me, you probably go "full Judges" some weeks between Sundays. That's why God has sent someone to save you. The Book of Judges is a bunch of really cool, really dark stories about God rescuing His people even when they are full of the worst ideas.

What does the book of Joshua have to say to us? It's kind of like the Book of Acts in the Old Testament. It can also be a hard one to swallow for modern readers because of all the violence and bloodshed. This message will help you make sense of all these things and understand how Joshua points to Jesus.

Where is God located for you? Where has God promised to be in a special way that YOU can count on?
This week we talk about supernatural water, magic bread, and the kind of person God shall make you into one day.

Probably the most important book in the Bible. Why do you suppose that is? There are so many reasons. Check out this video, it's a really fun one.

Finding Jesus in the most widely read book ever written.
He's hidden in plain sight, you just have to know where to look.
I'll bet you learn something.

If you want to be wise, if you want your life to be successful, if you want to have favor in the eyes of God and your fellow human beings—this book is the place to start. If there is any book in the Bible that serves as an instruction manual for life, it would be this one.
But it's a lot more than that. This is life.
Also, it points to the true Wisdom of God which is Jesus.

You need to hear this when life seems absurd and empty—meaningless. There's hope if you know where to look. This is something new under the sun.

Why does God allow pain and trouble in the world He created? Hmm. The Book of Job is a strange and beautiful picture of the world we live in.

Gather 'round children of all ages. This is the story that all the fuss is about. Do you want to know how to trust God more than your eyes can see?
God came to us. He didn’t wait for us to come to Him, or for us to make the first move. That’s how love works. We pursue the people we love. Remember that tomorrow when you’re around all the people you love. Go to them. Talk with them. Listen to them.

What do we know about Jesus coming back? Was Christmas really on December 25th? What about all that pagan origin of Christmas stuff? Plus, Pastor Frank talks about The Rapture, and there's a blessing that you probably need to hear.

It’s possible this is the most important message you’ll ever hear. Getting down to the nitty-gritty. How the things we do, our actions, our deeds—are either going to flow from our faith and build up our relationships, or we’ll just continue being the selfish, petty, judgmental jerks we’ve always been. We have to pursue the people we love. Make time for them. You Go First.

The heart wants what the heart wants. But my heart is a punk that wants me to die of diabetes and morbid obesity. You should never listen to your heart. But you should talk to it and discipline it. The secret to good relationships starts here.

Relationships are hard. This is the first in a series of messages that will show us what God's Word has to say about how to have good relationships. In this first one, Pastor Frank talks about how we create the reality we’re going to live in with our words. Whether that reality is going to be filled with tension and anger and bitterness. Whether it’s going to be filled with discouragement, nagging, putting each other down. Or whether our lives are going to be filled with love, joy, peace, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. (Galatians 5:23)

Watch this, Trump voters.
The pressing question isn’t who’s going to be president in January. The pressing question is can we turn from our idols and false beliefs and turn back to the Lord? We need to trust in Him alone. We need to stop putting faith in the things of this world.
“The Lord is with you when you are with him. If you seek him, he will be found by you, but if you forsake him, he will forsake you.”

What are the top two issues at stake for voters who are Christians?
#1 - Abortion (Can we vote for a pro choice candidate?)
#2 - Freedom of Worship (Is it at risk?)
Pastor Frank also talks about character in political leaders and how we have to hold them accountable. God judges nations based on their leaders and their laws. This is heavy stuff.
There is also hope. Gospel. Absolution.

You're probably all dug in on which candidate you're going to vote for (or have already voted for). You want to know how to vote like a Christian, though? Listen up.
God calls His people to make a difference in the city, state, and nation where they live. God judges nations based on their leaders and their laws. Our faith must not be compartmentalized but must go with us into the voting booth.
