Why Easter Changes Everything | 1 Corinthians 15

The resurrection of Jesus is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. If Jesus is dead, Christianity is too. However, Jesus is alive and this changes everything!

Confessional: Good Friday | Matthew 27

We look briefly at Passion Week and the events leading up to Jesus' death.

Widows, Feminism, and Motherhood | 1 Timothy 5:9-16

Sometimes challenging passages lead to helpful life application. With a culture that minimizes the significance of motherhood, how can we better prepare future wives and mothers to embrace their God-given roles as they love their husbands and children and manage their homes to the glory of God?

Confessional: The Proverbs 31 Woman

Proberbs 31 is well known for good reason. Jerry Ediger shows us the kind of wife and mother who is to be praised by her husband and children.

We as husband and fathers must be born again and we must understand what the new birth really is. What does it mean to be "dead" in tresspassess and sins? What does it mean to be "made alive" together with Christ? How should we as men race to the cross as believers? What does it mean to be gospel-centered man?

Black Mountain | Session 2 | Men at Home (Marriage)

Outside of our salvation, our wives are one of the most precious gifts the Lord gives us. Have we been taking this gift for granted? Do we marvel at the "good thing" the Lord has granted us? How can we better love and lead our wives spiritually?

Black Mountain | Session 1 | Men at Work

It is far too easy to compartmentalize our lives. Church has one box, work has another. Have we been separating our walk with Jesus from our daily work? Does our work define us? Has it become an idol and our identity? Or have we become lazy on the job? How does Christ connect to my career?
