Good morning! Join us this morning as Pastor Josh speaks on "No Room for Enemies: Jesus' Radical Call to Love." How are Christians called to respond to hatred and hostility? In today's message, we explore one of Jesus' most challenging teachings from the Bible: loving your enemies, praying for those who persecute you, and overcoming evil with good. Pastor Josh unpacks passages from Matthew, Luke, Romans, and more to reveal how Jesus redefined relationships, urging us to reject retaliation and instead embrace spiritual warfare against the true enemy—Satan, not people. Through powerful examples from scripture, history, and real-life stories, you'll discover how to live out this radical love in your own life. What does it mean to "turn the other cheek" or "go the extra mile"? How can we rise above division, hate, and team mentalities to build bridges of peace and compassion? Pastor Josh challenges us to break free from the mindset of enmity and reflect God's love to everyone, even those we might consider "enemies." Tune in to be inspired, encouraged, and equipped to live a life marked by extraordinary love. Don’t forget to follow our channel for more messages that dive deep into the teachings of the Bible and explore how they guide us as Christians in ministry and daily life.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
