Was the Bible Changed Over Time?

2026/09/20

Was the Bible changed over time? Ancient copies don’t agree on every word, the original manuscripts no longer exist, and the text passed through thousands of human hands. So how can we know whether the Bible we read reflects what its authors wrote? Explore the evidence behind one of Christianity’s most important questions.

When People Are Dangerous

2026/09/13

Some people are genuinely unsafe, and easy answers rarely help. How should Christians respond to dangerous people who have already caused harm? Explore the tension between forgiveness, trust, prayer, boundaries, courage, and safety, and what following Jesus can look like when grace and protection seem to pull in opposite directions.

Sincerely Wrong

2026/09/06

Can Christians be completely sincere about God and still be wrong about Jesus? Saul knew Scripture, respected religious authority, and believed opposing Jesus was what God wanted. His encounter in Acts 9 raises a difficult question for skeptics and lifelong Christians alike: Have we seen Jesus as he is, or only as he has been represented to us?

2026/08/30

The Parts of You That Won’t Change

2026/08/23

Why do we keep falling into the same patterns even when we genuinely want to change? Simon’s story in Acts 8 raises some uncomfortable questions about the things going on beneath our behavior, the habits we barely notice anymore, and what happens when following Jesus starts bringing those parts of us into the light.

Can I Question My Faith Without Losing It?

2026/08/16

What happens when the faith you were handed starts raising questions you can’t ignore?

Explore what it can mean to question your faith honestly, stay curious, and consider what rebuilding could look like with Jesus at the center.

Healing the Divide Between Us

2026/08/09

Broken relationships can leave questions that follow us for years. Explore reconciliation, forgiveness, trust, boundaries, and the complicated space that exists between people who have been hurt. Through the story of Philip and Samaria, discover why the way Jesus meets us inside relational division still matters today.

When God’s Good Looks Bad

2026/08/02

What does Romans 8:28 mean when life falls apart and nothing feels good? Can suffering, loss, doubt, and anger exist alongside God’s promise to work everything for good? Explore the tension between the life we hoped for and the person we may be becoming when our plans collapse. What if the part of your story that looks ruined isn’t beyond God’s reach?

Stop Bracing for the Worst

2026/07/19

Why is it so difficult to relax, even when nothing is wrong? We often brace for difficult conversations, uncertain outcomes, and problems that may never come. In this message we explore whether peace is possible when life is chaotic and what Jesus offers to people who are overwhelmed, exhausted, and carrying too much.

What If Things Get Worse?

2026/07/12

What if things get worse? Some of the hardest moments in life are the ones where you can't see how things will turn out. Fear and uncertainty can make the worst possibilities feel inevitable. The story of Stephen in Acts 7 raises a surprising question: What did he see in the worst moment of his life that allowed him to face it differently?

When You’re Wrong About God

2026/07/05

What if being wrong about God feels like being right? In Acts 7, Stephen confronts people who are certain they understand what God is doing, while Saul stands nearby as proof that God doesn’t give up on people who get it wrong. A message about certainty, humility, correction, and the mercy that brings us back to Jesus.

Why You keep Becoming the Same Person

2026/06/28

What do you do when you keep trying to change, but the same version of you keeps showing up? Acts 6 tells the story of Stephen, someone easy to overlook whose life began to look strangely like Jesus. A message for anyone tired of the same habits, insecurities, and patterns coming back.

Present Worry, Future Hope

2026/06/21

Can Christians have anxiety? Cameron Shandrow looks at Jesus, Paul, and the honest tension between anxiety, prayer, suffering, and faith. Anxiety is not a character defect, a failure of faith, or a disqualification from God’s plan.

Quiet the Noise

2026/06/14

Hearing God’s voice is both life giving and “tricky”. Developing a conversational prayer life is one way to “turn our ear” to hear from God. Since God loves us so dearly he desires to have a relationship with each of us where he hears from us regularly and we hear from Him regularly as well. […]

Wallpaper People

2026/06/07

Do other people seem more confident, capable, and impossible to overlook? Stephen’s story begins in the background, long before anyone knew his name. What makes an ordinary life meaningful?
