March 27, 2011 - Luke 10:1-24
Jesus recruited 72 people to represent Him, to be His frontline crew, preparing the way for Him as He headed to Jerusalem to face His death, burial and resurrection. Jesus thinned the ranks of those who had excuses that prevented them from serving God wholeheartedly. Christians today continue to be the "frontline crew" preparing the way for Jesus' second coming. Listen as we study the implications that Jesus' assignment had on the 72 and on ever person who is called a Christ-follower today.
I Want To Be Great
March 20, 2011 - Luke 9:46-62
This week we see a critical turning point in Jesus' ministry. He is setting himself to go to Jerusalem where he will be beaten, persecuted and crucified. In the meantime, His disciples are arguing about which of them is the greatest. Not long ago these guys were nobodies and how quickly pride begins to rear its ugly head so that they are more concerned with personal status and position than serving God's will. Jesus takes the time to instruct them, and us, about true greatness. This timeless message is essential for anyone who wants to be a part of a movement that will last.

A Mountaintop Experience
March 13, 2011 - Luke 9:28-36
When have you experienced a "mountain top" event? It might have been when you were married, or a dream vacation, or spiritually when Jesus gave you victory in an area of your life that has held you in bondage. Many have experienced mountain top experiences at a camp, a marriage retreat or a conference. God uses mountain top experiences in our lives, but ministry happens back in the lowlands, in the valleys of life. Learn what God wants to teach us through those times of spiritual highs.

It's Life...And This Is Your Part
March 6, 2011 - 2 Corinthians 5:17-18
Life races by us, it's like somebody has stepped on the accelerator, and if we are not careful we can look up and our shot at it will have passed us by. The "you" God planned will never be lived by another person, and if we are honest, most of us want to live our life in such a way that the world will be glad we did. But can we live like that? Yes.
