We wanted to share with you a little bit about where we've been and why we haven't released an episode in 2 months! Don't worry! All good stuff and we plan on getting back into a (somewhat) normal rhythm next week! Sorry for the delay! 

In this week's episode we take a look at the entire Bible to help us realize that the whole story is a beautiful tapestry showing us what it truly means to have union with God. 

We talk about: 
How a full view of the Gospel is necessary for true discipleship.
Why saying a prayer one time may not be the best thing for our long term spiritual growth.
What does it mean to experience heaven and hell on earth?
Why John 3:16 is great, but it's not the whole story.

The Gospel isn't fair... it's good! And it isn't based on our own goodness, but it is fully dependent on the Goodness of God poured out so freely for all of us. 

In this episode, Morgan and Ayren discuss why we should never lose our wonder or excitement for the Gospel as we launch a brand new series all about how the Gospel impacts and changes our lives.

We're trying something new this week! We decided to share a sermon that Ayren gave recently. 
In it, he talks about what it looks like to live life on adventure with God. 
As disciples, a life with Jesus should be (as Mike Yaconelli puts it) gloriously treacherous! But I doubt many of us would think about it that way. For many of us, life with God can easily become stale and mundane and we have to ask, "Are we doing this right?" 

In this episode we explore 3 main questions:
1 - Why would you want God?
2 - Why would God ever want you?
3 - What are you waiting for? 

This is a conversation about identity. At the end of the day, it all comes down to knowing and believing in who God is and who you are in Christ Jesus!
