When we suffer for the sake of Christ, it can feel like we’re victims. But what if it actually makes us victors? This week, Pastor Jeremy continues our series in Philippians with a look at how followers of Jesus should approach suffering. We are called to be resolute in faith’s suffering, knowing that Christ has redeemed our suffering. When we follow in His steps, we are able to reframe our suffering as an opportunity for fellowship with our Savior and a powerful witness to a dark and broken world. It’s an honor to be counted worthy to suffer for the name of Jesus.

How can we make the choice to pursue joy in the face of great hardships? This week, Pastor Connor considers that question as we continue our series in Philippians. In Christ, we have the resources to choose joy and embrace the struggle in His strength, for His glory. As we walk through our lives, we find that the biggest struggle is often the best opportunity to grow and to glorify God. Our impact in showing Christ to the world around us depends on the context of our trials, how we conduct ourselves, and how we allow ourselves to change, becoming more like our Lord. Whether we live or die, our aim should always be to rejoice in Christ and trust Him.

When we come to faith in Christ, we become part of God’s family, but what does that mean? What rights and responsibilities do we have as children of God? This week, Pastor Connor continues our series, From Garden to City, focusing on the idea that God has called us to join His plan to rescue the world from sin and death. Believers in Jesus have a new identity as children of the King, a new mission to spread the Kingdom, and a new family, as people who belong to the Kingdom. God calls each of us to be an ambassador for Christ, regardless of our skills or gifts. He equips us to be brave people who are waiting for future glory, and who reach out to invite others into that same glory. God wants to use you to reach your neighbors, coworkers, family, and friends with the good news of Jesus!

This week, Pastor Jeremy continues our series, “From Garden to City,” with a look at the covenants God made with His people in the years between Adam and Christ. Like the covenant in Eden, the Mosaic covenant was one where God dwelt among humans and gave them land to rule and extend His rule. In both covenants, disobedience led to expulsion from the land and death. And just as Adam and Eve violated the covenant of Eden, the people of Israel violated the covenant of Moses. But God is faithful, and remains faithful even when we’re unfaithful. His good plan to deliver humanity could not be thwarted by our rebellion, and in Christ, He provided the ultimate atonement that the Mosaic covenant foreshadowed.

God created the first humans to be in fellowship with Him, then placed them in a perfect garden with everything they needed. So what went wrong? This week, Pastor Connor begins our new sermon series, From Garden to City, with a look at humanity’s biggest problem. When Adam and Eve rebelled against God in the garden of Eden, they set an example that every one of us has followed. They sinned against God, got separated from Him, and were stuck in their miserable new home outside the garden. Death entered the world because of their disobedience. But even in the midst of this great curse, God already had a plan to save and restore His beloved people.

This week, our hosts dive deeper into our new series, from garden to city, some of the talking points were, if we know where the garden was located, if Adam and Eve would have been tempted to eat the fruit if Satan wasn't there, and Satan's offspring. Oh and tune into the beginning to hear our hosts talk about their own experiences with gardening.
