Mad About You.

For most of us, our tendency is to feel others deserve judgment while we deserve grace, mercy and comfort. In the end, what's most concerning to God gets overshadowed by what's more concerning to me.

The God of "Bring Back," Not "Payback"

God will often let us experience exaggerated consequences of our decision to tell Him "Thanks God, but no thanks" NOT to pay us back, but to bring us back.

Trying to Outrun God.

We all run from God at some point. There is a conflict between what we want and what we perceive God wants for us, and our response is "thanks, God, but no thanks." In this message, we discover the reason why we do that and the irony that in our running, we run away from the very thing we desire most. Listen in!

There has to be an explanation! Saying Jesus was a "good teacher with some devout followers" just doesn't explain what happened a few days after his execution, let alone his impact globally over the past 2000 years. So, what really happened? 

On the surface, Christianity seems like a lot of wishful thinking at worst and equally valid as other world religions at best. But unlike every other religion, the foundation of Christianity is not the teachings of a man or just "faith." It all rises and falls on an event.

Why couldn't Jesus do what you and I do and simply say, "I forgive you?" We forgive people all the time, but we've never had to die for someone to forgive them. So, why? Why did He have to die?

Why would God come to live among us as one of us? He was never married. He was never a parent. He didn't have a job. He didn't serve as a role model for any of the roles we play. So why? Why did he live among us as one of us?

The order for most Americans when it comes to money is first to spend it, then pay bills, pay taxes, save it, and if anything is left over, give it. The end result for most is feeling like there is never enough. The good news is that God offers a permanent solution, but it requires us to get first things first.

In times of personal financial crisis, we WANT God to show up in our financial world! Here's how to make sure God always stays involved in the arena of your finances to where you have all that you need when you need it...and more!

Money already feels tight, so we tend to feel there is more to lose than gain in giving. The question is: how can we leverage money now so that in the future, our return is greater than we could ever imagine and can never be lost?
