In a world that seems so confusing and painful even in the midst of celebration the Christmas Story calls out to us and tells of a God who would break in and come for you in Jesus. As we wrap up our series founding pastor, Jay Pathak, shares a special Christmas message that reminds us why Christmas is so special as we celebrate God inserting himself into human history and becoming the world's Thrill Of Hope.

What if God designed the Christmas story in such a way that His son would be despised before people even knew him? That when the people of the day thought of his place of birth they would actually be put off. What if it’s not success and power but humility in which rescue would come? This week as we near the end of our series “A Thrill Of Hope” Discover Church pastor, Preston Ulmer, explores the prophecy that the savior of all would be born intentionally into the wrong tribe.

Have you ever wondered if God could have written any story he wanted to why he chose to come as a baby? In weakness and need? Requiring the help of not his own people, but the help from those who oppressed his people? This week in "A Thrill Of Hope" Pastor, Jay Pathak, explores how God uses people from the wrong place to help carry on the story that will make all things new again.

You’ve probably heard the Christmas Story a time or two in your life, but have you ever stopped to think about the set up for such a crazy story? Like the wise men… who are these guys? And what would compel them to travel so far just to visit a baby? This week as we begin our Advent series, pastor, Jay Pathak, explores the origins of the Magi and how compelled by “Thrill Of Hope” they set the stage for the Christmas Story.

What are you thankful for this holiday season? Is it the amazing food and drinks? All the fun parties? Or maybe you're thankful for the gifts? This week as we wrap up our series “You’ll Thank Me Later” founding pastor, Jay Pathak, keys in on how to be grateful for what we already have and not just get stuck focusing on what we lack. Especially the people and relationships that surround us.

When it comes to being & feeling wealthy, perception is everything. How you think about your resources will largely determine what you do with them. So why do we all end up feeling more poor than we actaully are? This week Pastor, Jay Pathak uses a talk from the founder of Financial Peace University, Dave Ramsey, to help flip our view of what God has given us and hopefully help us start to see through a lens of gratitude.

We are taking the next few weeks leading up to thanksgiving to examine gratitude and how we can be thankful in and out of the holiday season.

It’s here, the final week of our series “I Love My Church”. This week pastor, Jay Pathak looks towards the mission of God’s people to help find one final analogy to describe what the church is and why it's so important.

What do you think people are invited into when they decide to follow Jesus and have life with God? Is it a simply a means to live a happy, moral life? Or is it something more? This week in “I Love My Church” pastor, Jay Pathak, takes a look at a different narrative from 2 Timothy and asks the question “When we say yes to Jesus, have we been recruited to an army and are now at war?”

Have you ever been to a wedding and watched as two people vow to give themselves to each other for the rest of their lives? It's a moving, emotional experience right? The bible uses the image of a wedding to describe God's relationship to us pretty often & most of the time it means to draw certain emotions out of us. So what exactly is the scriptures trying to communicate about who God is & what should our response be to that? This week in "I Love My Church" pastor, Corey Garris, takes a look at the book of Hosea to answer these questions to help us bring some clarity to this compelling but sometimes confusing imagery.

When you hear the word "family" what do you think of? Your parents? Your spouse? Your kids? Maybe you think of your siblings? No matter who comes to mind, when we hear the phrase "the family of God" we all imagine something. While sometimes that can be helpful to how we think about church, often times it actually does the exact opposite. This week in "I Love My Church" pastor, Corey Garris, lays out exactly what the bible has to say about the word family & what that means as we live life with those around us.

As a follower of Jesus how do you both live Holy and also engage the culture around you? The scriptures use an interesting analogy when it comes to navigating this tension… the temple. What do these two have to do with each other? Take a listen and find out as pastor, Jay Pathak explains.

What do you think it means to be part of a church? We all have different ways to think about this question but one of the most commonly used metaphors to explain what it means to be involved in a church is the human body.

Does gathering together on Sundays even matter if we all follow Jesus? If you have ever been a part of a local church at some point you will probably ask this question.
