For the final message in our “Crazy Things Jesus Said” series, we look at the wild invitation Jesus gave Peter to follow Him no matter the cost—even if it meant death. How did Peter develop a life of discipleship that stares death in the eye and responds with a wholehearted, ‘yes’? Listen in as Jeff & Natalie Faust bring a conclusion to our spring series.

Jesus said, “I Am the resurrection and the life—whoever believes in me will never die.” This Easter as we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, let’s also look at the various resurrection appearances found in scripture so we can better answer the question: Is the resurrection for me?

Jesus saved some of His ‘craziest’ messages for the larger crowds. In this sermon we’ll look at the words of Christ that call us to a deeper, more dedicated, and sold out relationship with Jesus that is 100% focused on following Him. Being a fan of Jesus is easy—being a follower is costly.

Why did Jesus, ‘the prince of peace,’ say that He didn’t come to bring peace but a sword? In this ‘crazy thing Jesus said,’ we look at some of the more challenging messages behind family, fidelity to Jesus, and whether or not family can become an idol.

What did Jesus mean when He said we would handle snakes and drink poison and not be harmed? Was it literal or figurative? How does this even apply to our lives today? In this message, we look at the ‘story behind the story’ to unpack a Kingdom calling of ‘proclamation and demonstration.’

What did Jesus mean when He said, “The Kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent take it by force?” In this message we explore what this does & doesn’t mean and how to apply this truth to our lives.

‘The Crazy Things Jesus Said’ series kicks off with a humbling declaration by Jesus: that we have been given the ‘keys of the Kingdom.’ As followers of Christ, let’s not shrink back from this responsibility but partner with God in transforming all things.
