Anyone who's taught a kid to ride a bike knows how it goes: you run next to them, hand on the seat, and eventually you let go. They may fall, but the goal isn't to hold on forever. It's to get them ready to ride. This weekend, we look at three things kids need from the adults around them — and why letting go has always been part of God's plan.  Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Most of us live by pouring real effort into a blurry target. We mean well and work hard, all while wondering what we're aiming at. Adventures in Missing the Point starts with a letter written to people who'd forgotten who they were. Explore a shared identity that's God-given, not built — and the way that identity points us to a life of weirdly generous, practical love.  Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

We want to be loved for who we are, not how we perform. But then we ask what we can do to deserve it. A man once asked Jesus what he had to do to get on God's guest list, which is like asking how much you owe for a gift. In our final week of “About Love,” we look at the kind of love nobody earns—and the person it sends us toward. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor

The Greeks and Romans built temples to desire. We don't put up statues, but we still feel the pull to do whatever it says. In the third week of About Love we talk about romantic and sexual desire, and why God designed wanting to be good fuel but a terrible driver. Wherever your starting point in this conversation, his love meets you there. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Bert and Ernie, Woody and Buzz, SpongeBob and Patrick. It's hard to picture one without the other. Most of us want that kind of friend: someone who's simply with us and for us. In our second week of About Love, we look at three habits that build and sustain friendships — and why God describes what he wants with us in the same way. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Everyone wants to belong. But what if the belonging we're after isn’t about finding people like us? Jesus built a family from people who would otherwise never have come together: the powerful and the enslaved, the rich and the outcast. This week, we start a new conversation about love, beginning with the kind that welcomes you in and turns a “me” life into a “we” life. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

You weren't meant to just be a spectator. Fall Kick-off at Chase Oaks is your invitation to step out of the stands and join what God is doing in our church and community. This weekend, discover where your next "yes" could lea Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Alone in the desert, pregnant and running from a home that treated her like property, Hagar was sure she'd been forgotten. But God met her there. She walked away with a new understanding and a new name for him: “the God who sees me.” This weekend, discover what Hagar learned about being seen when you feel most overlooked. Speaker: Ashlyn Stanley, Legacy Student Pastor

Speaker: April Farmer, Guest Speaker

Elijah had just seen God send fire from the sky. A day later, he was under a tree, spent and ready to quit. How would you imagine God responding to a person's darkest moment? Lecturing, walking away, or showing up with radical gentleness and care? Turns out the God who sends fire also makes breakfast for us in the middle of our breakdowns. Speaker: Rey Diaz, Melissa Campus Pastor

Football coach. Principal with a clipboard. Buff Santa. Somewhere along the way, most of us picked up a picture of God that's hard to love. Contrast that with Jesus' story of God as a father: someone who sees his broken son a long way off, hikes up his robe, and runs to him before a single apology even gets out. Once you've heard it, your understanding of God will never be the same. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor

15 billion soundtrack streams. Four Top 10 songs. "K-Pop Demon Hunters" didn't just do well; it took over. But beneath the catchy hooks, the movie is built on a key idea: there's an unseen battle going on, and we're in the middle of it. This week with At the Movies, learn how to spot (and counter) the three most common strategies used against you. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

The newest Knives Out isn't just a murder mystery. Underneath the whodunit is a question its director can't shake: is religion toxic, or is it life-giving? Jesus confronted the same question, and his answer wasn't to fix religion but to shatter it. If faith has ever felt like a performance you keep failing, find out why it's never been about what you do. It's about what's already been done. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

A man wakes up alone in deep space with no memory of who he is. His quest for answers leads him to find what many of us spend a lifetime looking for. In this week’s At the Movies pick, discover how curiosity and courage separate an aimless search from a purposeful one, and why meaning is almost always found on the other side of a scary step.
