summer 2024

Aug. 4 - Aug. 18, 2024

We believe in something a little strange -- zombies. Well, not actually. But we do believe in a Savior who rose from the dead, and that we too will one day -- bodily -- rise from the dead. What's up with this kind of weird idea of resurrection? And why does it matter so much to our faith?

Patriotism soars in the month of July, as people celebrate what it means to be an American.

For the Corinthians, following Jesus was all in their heads: a sophisticated set of ideas, a fashionable new way of thinking, a sense of spirituality. But while the Gospel was in their heads, following Jesus never made it to their hands and feet -- an actual change in the way they did life.

How do we make sure that Jesus hasn’t just touched our heads but our hands and feet as well? What does it look like to live out the way of Jesus in the nitty gritty details of our everyday choices -- the way we cut our hair, eat our In’n’Out, have sex, and make decisions? Join us for Jesus in the nitty gritty.

Here we go!
