Audio Examples
- When Life Hurts Most – November 2008
R.E.M., the alternative rock band, expressed a profound truth in their 1992 hit song: Everybody Hurts. We all experience loss, pain and disappointment. And during the hardest parts of life, when the bottom seems to fall out, where do we turn?
This message is based on the epic story of Job, his deepest hurts and darkest moments. We’ll discover together that although God doesn’t offer any easy solutions, He does offer Himself as an anchor of hope no matter what we face in life. - The Ring of Power – September 28, 2008
Sooner or later all ringbearers encounter the corrupting influence of power. Some become manipulative and toxic. This is a study of the relationship between Saul and David from the historical books of First and Second Samuel.

This message is about spiritual pornography, Tarshish and Nineveh, and the grass that is always greener on the other side of the fence. In a study from the book of Jonah in the Old Testament you’ll be challenged to confront your own personal “Tarshish” and hear God’s persistent call to your own “Nineveh. - A Mother's Legacy – May 11, 2008
There is a saying in Spain that "an ounce of mother is worth a pound of clergy." In this Mother's Day message from Exodus 2 and Hebrews 11 we'll honor our moms and spotlight four powerful legacies they give to their children.
