Every Christian is called to do stuff that matters, and every story is unique. In this week’s talk, we’ll show you how your skills, backstory, and even your heartaches open up unique opportunities to make a difference in the world.
Everyone wants to do something with their life that matters, and as it turns out, God wants that, too. In this week’s talk, we’ll look at what it actually means to be “called to ministry,” and how God’s mission field is a lot more familiar than you realize.
You’re the lead character in your life’s story, and every good story needs a villain. In this week’s talk, we’ll learn about how to view the villains in your life by looking at how Jesus interacted with His.
Most christians want to share their faith, they just don’t know what to say or when to say it. In this week’s talk, we’ll look at one shocking statement Jesus made that turns that whole process upside down, and makes sharing surprisingly simple.
