One of the great challenges of the human experience in this day and age is rest and sabbath. Pastor Tinasha teaches us that rest is spiritual practice and Jesus was an avid practicer of being alone. We learn in Genesis when God created the heavens and the earth that rest is part of the equation of creativity. In this talk, she gives some practical steps along with the revelation of how rest is integral in being human and a follower of Jesus. Being able to rest is disruptive in nature to the world we live in. Jesus models this for us in the scriptures and teaches us the value and place of solitude and rest in our lives.

One of the great complexities of life is grappling with Faith and the human experience. How do we reconcile what we know is true when our life experiences say otherwise? Do we know how God defines faith in our lives? Pastor Eric talks on how the scriptures tell us faith is as small as a mustard seed and it's as big as a tree. It’s dynamic, it moves, it shrinks and grows. It’s not static and fixed but resembles a living organism. Sometimes it's strong and other times you wonder if you have any. Sometimes it’s a mere sliver of hope and others times it's as strong as a mountain. Faith is a surrender, it's not an accomplishment but rather it's a journey to Him.

In I Corinthians 3:3, Paul writes "are you acting like mere humans?" This question is an invitation to live the way you were created to live. God isn't designed to think like us, we were designed to think like him. We have a choice to live as "mere humans" or we can live in the way God had in mind.

Our life is a story that is being written. There is a place in our story and in our hearts that belongs to a Hero. We all desire a Hero to come along and help create the future our soul longs for. On Palm Sunday, Pastor Eric talks about some of the events leading up to Easter. For the Jews their Hero was called the Messiah. As Jesus declares he is the Messiah, the future they longed for is now possible. The story they dreamed of writing can now have the end they all desired. However, as the story unfolds, their Messiah dies. Listen to hear how Jesus had to rewrite the narrative to reveal what story he was writing so the story could continue into the future.

Have you ever done everything right and nothing works? Have you ever done everything wrong and everything works? Pastor Eric talk tackles the common human experience by taking a deeper look at one of the most compelling stories Jesus tells in Luke 15. Jesus being the brilliant storyteller invites the listener into the story to reveal a flaw in our thinking when it comes to the grace and mercy of the Father. Listen to find out why the Father broke all cultural norms and rules to run to his son who is coming home. Also listen to find why was the son who never left, just as lost as his brother. The human struggle of worth and value is one that goes back centuries, let's learn how Jesus addresses this in this story. For more info check out our website, Instagram and Facebook.

The human story has been shaped by human reasoning, the reasoning of God and the reasoning of something mythical. In Ecclesiastes 3:11 it reads "God has placed eternity in our hearts...". The human soul longs for meaning and definition and we spend our lives in search for the answers to our existence. In today's culture we are inclined to define self from within ourselves. Jesus entered into the human story to show us how and what it means to be human in the way he imagined. His life reveals how to be fully alive. Some say you're fully alive when you're in control, but the scriptures teach us we are are fully alive when we are fully surrendered. It's in this surrender where Jesus brings definition and meaning to our existence. For more info visit us at our website or check out our instagram.
