Saddleback Church Weekend Messages

How can we have peace in the midst of chaos? So often we see our problems through the filter of our chaotic world — we let our environment determine our peace. What if, instead of letting our environment determine our peace, we were able to bring peace to our environment? This week, Pastor Andy Wood looks at how we can be a peacemaker in the world around us and bring peace with us wherever we go.

We all yearn for peace in our lives, but when faced with the chaos of our circumstances peace can seem impossible. The stress of our struggles begin to produce thoughts of anxiety, leaving us with feelings of unrest. When this happens, how do we experience God's peace? This week Pastor Andy starts a new series, The Missing Peace, and shares four ways we can choose peace for our mind.

What does it mean for us to step into the fullness of God's vision for our lives together as a church family? This week, Pastor Andy Wood introduces  five of the big initiatives God is leading us to step into as a church and how we can be a part!

We live in a society made up of people from different cultures, religious beliefs, and ethnic backgrounds. Part of stepping into the fullness of God's vision for our lives is knowing and learning how to love and to interact with people who are different from us. This week Pastor Buddy Owens, along with Pastor Anthony Miller and Pastor Will Guzman, answer an important question — how do we relate to people who are different from us?

Have you ever been in a relationship that feels stuck? You’ve done everything you can, but nothing is changing — you’re continuously getting hurt. When this happens, what’s the best path to take for our health and safety? How do we heal the relationship? This week, Pastor Andy Wood shares four different ways we can respond  to destructive people in our lives.

We’ve all had difficult relationships at one point in our lives — some of us are dealing with them right now. What do we do when we’re faced with relational challenges? How does God want us to move forward? This week, Pastor Stacie Wood shows us three things we can do to navigate difficult relationships.

God cares about our relationships — he cares about the way we love the people in our lives. This week, Pastor Andy Wood takes a look at Ephesians four and how it shows us three ways we can transform our relationships.

God has designed us to experience the fullness of life. This is why every culture has celebrations, because God has wired us for joy! Even Jesus said the Kingdom of heaven is a party and everyone's invited. This week, Pastor Andy Wood gave us three ways to receive the invitation to God’s party.

So often, when we begin the pursuit of a dream, we start out strong —  but a good beginning doesn’t guarantee a strong finish. This week, Pastor Andy Wood wraps up the Uncommon Courage series by talking about the courage to keep going and how to finish well.

We live in a culture that is constantly wanting to speed up or go faster. Sometimes, we need courage to slow down. This week, Pastor Stacie Wood looks at three principles that can help us slow down and notice God's faithfulness in our lives and three spiritual practices that go hand in hand with those principles.
