Episodes
We finish our Gospel Transformation series by looking at the freedom that the Gospel brings.
On this special Easter week gathering, we look at the authority Jesus had during his final meal with his disciples and how he used that to set an example for us. We challenge the room to respond to this statement, "As a follower of Jesus, I have been given all authority, so I ___________."
"What is truth?" - Pilate
"Follow your heart!" - Today's Culture
When it comes to truth, how should we live? As followers of Jesus, how does the Gospel transform our understanding and commitment to truth? This month, we look at this important topic and what Jesus says about Himself.
This semester, our theme is Gospel Transformation. The Gospel is good news, not just that Jesus died and rose from the dead, but in every aspect of how we live as believers. To be truly transformed by the Gospel, we experience the good news of how following Jesus changes everything.
In February, we talk about how the good news of the Gospel brings forgiveness of our past, present, and future. We live each day in the power of knowing...
We finish our look this semester at what Jesus says about what matters by talking about identity. How did Jesus find his identity, how did the enemy attack that, and how does that impact us today?
For our Friendsgiving Young Adult Gathering in November, we spent the night talking about gratitude, what Jesus said about it, and how we can live a life filled with gratitude.
In the midst of a divisive political season and the election of a new President, how can we as Christians navigate politics with a Biblical worldview and our faith intact? Should we engage in politics? If so, how? And what does Jesus say about it all?
In our September gathering, we discuss the question, "What is the mission of your life?" What does Jesus say about that and how can we live that out?
This semester, we are looking at what Jesus said about important matters of life and faith. For our August Gathering, we looked at the purpose of community and what Jesus had to say about it.
A message from Matthew 13 about the Kingdom of God.
A message on the importance of rest.
One of the core questions of humanity (and your life) is "What is my purpose?" or to ask it another way "What is my calling?" In today's episode, we want to give you a biblical worldview for calling. Maybe you're anxious because you feel like you're missing out on your purpose. Maybe you feel like a failure because you were told you needed to change the world or do something important but you work...
What if you don't sense a call to "full-time vocational ministry"? How can we live on mission here and now in our everyday lives? In this episode, we are joined by Tyler Godfrey and Kayla McDonald who not only lead YA Groups here but also led our GenSend Boston team this summer. GenSend's mission is to help develop "everyday, spirit-led missionaries" who view their neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, e...
All throughout Scripture and human history, we see God's heart for the world. He desires for His glory to be seen and known among the nations (Ps. 46:10) and that none would perish but all would come to the knowledge of the Truth (1 Tim. 2:3-6). But what can that practically look like in our every day lives? In today's episode, we are joined by our good friend "Reuben" who spent the past two years serving in Ru...
We all have a desire to see our lives count. None of us woke up today and thought: "I'd love to waste my life on things that don't matter." Yet, we hear story after story of people getting to then and being filled with regret. How can we ensure that we don't make that same mistake? How can we live a life that makes a difference now, leaves a legacy later, and ripples in eternity? On today's episode, we...
In this series, we are diving into how we are meant to relate to and connect with church as followers of Jesus. In today's episode we're asking the question of "what should we be looking for in a church?"
As a young adult, this will likely be the most transient season of your life. Odds are you will one day be in a new season of life, a new community, and looking for a new church to connect with. Wheth...
In episode one of our three-part series on the church, we discuss the basic question: "What's up with the Church?" We not only want to talk about what the Church is meant to be but we also want to address the common misconceptions (sometimes rightfully so) people have of the Church. We all have different experiences and expectations that we carry into the Church today but what does Scripture say? Let's lean in a...
We decided to cancel episode three of "The Bible never said..." to talk about a compelling and potentially controversial topic: Revival. This has been a trendy topic of late and we've seen the word "revival" tossed around quite a bit. What is revival? Why do need it? How do we get it? When do we know it's happening? We want to bring some much-needed clarity to the conversation and cast a compelling vis...
This is the second of three episodes discussing things we often hear (or say) that are actually never seen in Scripture. Today's topic is: "The Bible never said that we must live an extraordinary life." Far too often, we see cultural pressures dressed in cheap theology and this is one of them. It's easy to dress the pressures of greatness and influence in missional language that positions Jesus as the mascot for...
This is the first of three episodes discussing things we often hear (or say) that are actually never seen in Scripture. Today's topic is: "The Bible never said that we are all God's children." We believe everyone has inherent value, worth, and dignity as people made in the image of God. However, not everyone is a child of God. Is that true? Where do we get that from? How do we know where we stand? How can we k...
