SERIES: Bod4God
Does God care about what I eat or drink? Does exercise, sleep, or good health matter at all to Him?
When we think about spiritual growth, we often focus on our emotions and decisions going on inside. We don't think about how our treatment of our physical bodies can honor (or dishonor) God.
Or, if we think we are too fat or too weak, then we sign up for the latest diet or exercise regimen, and we never consider what God thinks about our bodies and our health.
In Bod4God, we want to see what God thinks about our physical selves and how it should shape the choices we make in life.

SERIES: The Games of Life
We've all played games before: board games, card games, team sports, family games… The rules and strategies may differ wildly, but in general one thing is constant: you want to win at the game. No one plays to lose on purpose. And, when it comes our how we live our lives, we all want to win and succeed.
This series compares our lives to various games or game ideas, and it lets God's Word speak to us about how to be successful in life itself.

Summer 2012
SERIES: God On Film
What do blockbuster movies have to do with God and the church? Well, movies are the vehicles for telling great stories these days. And in many of these movies are themes that resonate with God's heart... At the very least, there are ideas that contrast with God's truth and give us a basis to think about them.
Join us - and bring a friend - as we examine a bunch of movie hits this summer and see what God reveals about Himself and the world through them.

SERIES: Unstuck - Moving Beyond Mediocrity
Sometimes we all get stuck. We dream of greatness and of a better future. But something in our lives hits a snag and we can't seem to move forward. We can't get any momentum. We feel stuck.
Yet God's intent is to break us free in every area of our lives. Free to live abundantly. Free to live for Him. God's power can move us beyond the mire of mediocrity into greatness only He could imagine...
