What are we supposed to do when we pray for suffering to end, but He doesn't answer? This week, Justine Morris is leading us into Luke 8 to talk about the journey of suffering and the power of God's Love.

We read the story of Jesus cleansing the temple and feel like we are justified at getting angry, as long as we call it "righteous anger". But what if he's trying to communicate something quite different? What if he wants to use this to change you? Discover what Jesus was trying to teach the disciples about Jesus as King.

Building on Robert’s excellent sermon last week, God is clearly trying to build all our faith. It is as important as anything we can do. Experience this and see what it feels like to have more faith!

How are we to really please God, to really do what He’s asking of us? Only by seeing God for who He really is and by letting Him be the King. Come walk through this journey of faith with us!

What if it turns out that you actually can’t be a “good” Christian; not just those that struggle with obvious issues, but rather all of us? Experience what it takes to be, and stay, truly free in Him on this Memorial Day!

What is faith? How do we grow in it? How do we get to where we can move mountains? What if the answer is so small and natural, that we don’t even know we’re growing in it? Experience this and end up different.

Is this a season of answered prayer? Is God doing this to teach us who He really is? How can you know if you don’t try? Come dig deeper with us this week as we experience a way to pray free of yourself. It will inspire you to pray in a new way that puts your focus right where He wants it!

As Jesus gets closer to Jerusalem and his end, the things He is saying to His disciples become ever more important. How many of us have something that we desperately need God to do? Come experience what to do about it! And by doing that, ultimately discover the deepest way to really know Him!!!

Last week we saw that God is the One Causing the divisions we’re experiencing, this week we’re going to see why. Come experience this amazing revelation and end up seeing everything that is happening through total new eyes. In fact, come discover the miracle that God is actually doing. You will like it very much!

The World is coming apart! No, really, those on extremes are losing it, and the rest of us just wish they’d quit. But at what price does comfort come? In fact, what’s the cost of just being with those with whom I agree? Experience God’s very surprising answer to that question! It turns out to be way more important than any of us imagined…

If you batted .100 as a baseball player – meaning you only got a hit 1 out of 10 times at the plate - there is no chance that you would make it to the Bigs (unless you’re a pitcher). But what if thaat is Hall of Fame stats for a Christian? Come get ready for the big game, by experiencing the even bigger one at hand. It just may get you a Super win!!!

How important is it that we actually do what the Lord is leading us to do? Does it become even more important when he's been doing extraordinary things to get you to do something? Experience this extremely important sermon and not only get a glimpse into the glory to which is calling us, but stare for a moment into the abyss of what happens if we do not… You are going to love this one.

How important is it to know who God says you are? Experience this message and discover how life changing it can be to live in who He says you are, rather than who we say we are. Very eye opening. Very impactful!

Do you ever feel like the things God is doing to transform you into his image can be a bit too much? Is your walk with him characterized by an overflowing joy and thankfulness for everything he's doing and you, or the just some parts of it that seem onerous? Experience this message and see how amazingly beautiful, and natural, i.e. easy, all the things that God is trying to do really are.

If you did not catch Eric and Tamarah Lee’s sermon last week, be sure to. It was a Word from the Lord about what He’s going to do with us in this next season. I a way that is a “wow” confirmation, the next section of Luke speaks directly to what they laid out, namely, how do we really become One, even when there are disagreements.

We all know the Christmas story, right? We know all the details and everything that it means… But what if there is actually something to Christmas that goes way beyond what we know? What if there is a revelation not just of God, but ourselves…? It's going to be a good Sunday at Lake Samm, very much hope that you can join us.

It just keeps getting better and better… In a way that you just have to experience, the Lord is in the layout for us what he really means by discipleship and evangelism. It turns out it's the most natural, easy, desirable thing that you already do and want to do in your life. The Lord is doing extraordinary things. Praise Him!

We are more divided than ever – even inside our churches! How do we heal that to become the One that Jesus prayed for. And is it possible that the way to do that turns out to be a phenomenal insight into how to actually disciple people much more effectively than we have been?

How would you like to discover a way to always be completely outside yourself when you are interacting with someone? To see who God made them to be, and so to have the same love for them that God does…always? Experience this time with God on Sunday, and enter into an entirely new dimension.

God just continues to do the most amazing things. Step by step, He is showing us how to actually get to where He has for us. The perfect follow up to Josh’s excellent word from Him last week, this one takes us from desire to a first, small, albeit critical step. This is one you have to experience live, as we will be helping one another. Can’t wait to see you, and experience what He’s doing!
