As we enter into the week of Easter today on Palm Sunday, Pastor Kevin Simmons asks us the question, "What are you focused on?" It's easy to get caught up with TP (tunnel perspective) and lose sight of the good around us. But as we go through this week, we need to be reminded that Jesus needs to be the central focus of every part of our lives.
Have you ever wondered to yourself, “Is there more?” Maybe you’re living with a vague awareness that there’s more to life than what you’ve experienced. This message is for you! During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons shares with us how to level up our experience with the rewards of right relationship with God. Jesus died to purchase them for us. Let’s position ourselves to more fully live in what God has provided!
Did you know it was possible to reject the rewards Jesus purchased for you? We do it often, and we often don’t know we’re doing it! During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons shows us how not to disqualify ourselves from the rewards that our right relationship with Jesus offers us!
When Jesus died on the cross, He purchased for us a life we could never have afforded for ourselves. How many times have we lived as if we’ve forgotten the rewards He’s already bought for us? During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons shows us that God has predefined the rewards of our relationship with Him and challenges us to live from a place of receiving them today!
Have you endured a painful season, there was purpose in the pain. God wastes nothing, including our pain. It is possible, however, to endure the pains of life and miss out on the rewards. During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons asks us to reflect on our lives and ask, “Are we running an eternal race trying to earn a temporary prize?”
Too often we allow fights to get out of control and cross healthy boundaries. Have you ever considered that how we fight is as important as what we’re fighting for? During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons shares with us FIGHT RULES to help us better navigate conflict.
What are you fight for in life? Are you fighting for petty things? Or... Are you fighting for the most important things? During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons exposes the internal conflicts that are keeping us from fighting for the best things and shows us what we need to fight for in the middle of conflict.
Life is going to throw a sucker punch. You’re going to experience trouble that you couldn’t predict. When that sucker punch lands, how do you react? During this message Pastor Kevin Simmons shares with us how typically react and shows us how to navigate trouble in a better way.
How we handle conflict contributes to the health of our relationships. Are you running for conflict? Are you causing unhelpful conflict? As we open #FIGHTFORIT, Pastor Kevin Simmons shows us that conflict is a part of every healthy, intimate relationship and invites us to fight like a winner.
As we close out our vision series for 2020, Pastor Kevin Simmons asks us, “What good thing is standing between you and the life God wants for you?” Often we fill our lives with good things and come to find that good things are crowding out the best things. Let’s relentlessly pursue the life God’s called us to live.
