Watch & Listen to Acts 2 Sermons

True wisdom is not just knowledge or experience, but humility, listening, and a willingness to learn from God and others.

Jesus is the victor over sin, evil, and death, and his crucifixion and resurrection reveal God’s ultimate power and love.

Happy people value and invest in real friendships. Jesus wants you to be full of joy, which comes from a right relationship with God and one another.

We often think happiness is just one accomplishment or milestone away, but when we get there, we find that satisfaction doesn’t last. If we want enduring happiness, we need to instead focus on progress toward the things Jesus teaches that matter most.

When it comes to happiness, Jesus and social science research agree: it’s all about relationships. The way we nurture our relationships with God, family, friends, and nature can make us significantly happier, and it can make the world happier, too.

Justice is about closing the gap between the world as it is and the world as God meant it to be.   

True happiness at work comes not from career success or status but from knowing our identity as God’s beloved children and joining God’s work in the world through whatever we…

Jesus teaches us that while the world mistakenly seeks happiness through following natural urges, the people of God seek God’s will first.
