After a man calls Jesus, “Good Teacher,” he responds strangely: “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.” But Jesus is God, so why does he say this? On a more personal note, do we recognize God’s goodness as Jesus did? How might it affect us if we don’t?

Christians often demean themselves with degrading words, but the words Jesus uses to describe the resurrected are quite glorious. They are “considered worthy,” “equal to the angels,” and are “children of God.” How do we see our identity? Does it line up with the way Jesus sees us? How might our lives be different if…

A good cornerstone is crucial to constructing a building, but Jesus identifies himself as a rejected cornerstone. In this message, we look at some of the reasons why people might have rejected Jesus as a cornerstone and ask ourselves if we still do the same thing today.

Christians are known for declaring where the Kingdom of Heaven is, but Jesus said it couldn’t be observed and that there’s no way we could miss it when it finally came. But he also said the kingdom was within us right here and now. What does this all mean for us today?

Question: Why would a good + sovereign God create humans? He saw the brokenness ahead, why proceed? Answer: Oddly, God has faced this question himself. Before he sent the flood, Genesis 6:6 says, “And the Lord regretted that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.” So yeah, even God has…

Question: In light of recent events in the Africa and the Middle East, what causes God to intervene/not intervene (from a human perspective) in earthly affairs? Inquiring minds (like mine) are wondering. Answer: Yeah, there’s a lot of difficult stuff going on right now that can be hard to wrap our minds around. Here’s how…
