Death still stings, and the world still looks like it's winning. But Paul ends the resurrection chapter with a taunt: "O death, where is your victory?" In 1 Corinthians 15:50–58, Christ is the conquering king — so sing as victors and labor as conquerors, knowing your labor is not in vain. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:50-58

In our world, promises are often broken, expectations are unmet, and we are constantly let down. In the mist of pain in life, it's easy to wonder if God will do the same. In our text, Paul gives three life changing promises given to us by God that we can cling to when our trust starts slipping. Scripture: Romans 8:28-30

For many of us, prayer is a weakness of our Christian life. In fact, Paul agrees. So, how can we pray with hope and confidence that our prayers will be heard and be effective, even in our weakness? Come draw encouragement from a stunning truth: that we have a divine prayer partner in the Holy Spirit!

In the tension of a test, be full of faith that God will powerfully provide.

When my faith fails, trust in God’s pursuing grace

Abraham’s call teaches us that true and living faith is characterized by being completely all-in through obedient surrender, firmly anchored in the person and promises of God, and actively connected to God’s mission.

As we try to navigate life in a fallen world, many difficulties and sufferings arise that seek to derail us. In the hardest moments of life, Paul contends that our glorious future in Christ should lead to faithful endurance in our present.

Suffering is part of life—and part of Chris's story--but our perspective can shift in suffering when we take our eyes off ourselves and put them fully on God.

Bodies decay. So how can the dead possibly be raised? In 1 Corinthians 15:35–49, Paul points to the seed in the ground: what is sown is not what is raised. The same body — but imperishable, glorious, and infused with the Spirit of God.

If the dead aren't raised, Christian suffering is worse than pointless — it's stupid. In 1 Corinthians 15:29–34, Paul shows why resurrection hope compels us to live foolish lives of suffering for the sake of a future gain.

A snowdrop in the snow. A first strawberry in May. Both hint at what's coming — and so does Jesus' resurrection. Trace with us the organic connection between what Christ has done, is doing, and will do, offering real hope to anyone ready to give up.  1st Corinthians 15:20-28

Anxiety is at an all-time high — especially among college students. But Jesus doesn’t offer tips or tricks. In this talk from the Sermon on the Mount, we explore how Jesus exposes what’s really driving our anxiety (misplaced priorities, wrong masters, and the illusion of control), and why the deepest remedy isn’t a technique — it’s knowing God as your Father. Because a Father who feeds sparrows and clothes wildflowers can certainly be trusted with your life. Passage: Matthew 6:25-34
