Jeff starts a new series this week looking at the ‘Famous Last Words’ of Jesus. In John 14-17, Jesus gathered His disciples for some final teachings before dying on the cross and inside these four chapters, we learn so much about walking with God. In today’s sermon, we learn that Jesus is making a way for us to be with Him forever and that in the midst of trouble, we can trust Him… What does that mean for us today and how can we draw near to His love?
We finish our series on generosity with a panel interview from long-time members at the Vineyard. Listen in as we discover everyone’s journey towards generosity, the struggles, blessings, and real-life examples from decades of following Jesus. Jesus said in Acts 20: “It is more blessed to give than to receive,” how much do we believe that and how is it demonstrated in our lives today?
Is the ‘prosperity gospel’ real? Does God really bless us when we give? That feels transactional at best and manipulative and its worst. Listen in as Jeff continues our series by addressing the elephant in the room that is the prosperity gospel — the good, bad, & ugly!
How do you give when you don’t have very much money? How does a surplus or growing wealth impact your generosity? In this passage Jesus blesses the poor, disciples the rich, and has an invitation for us all. Listen in as Jeff continues our series on generosity with this famous scripture from the life of Jesus.
Money follows you until the day you die — wouldn’t it be weird if Jesus never talked about such an important topic? The Bible has a lot to say when it comes to money, generosity, and giving. Jeff starts this new series by talking about how ‘Love Gives & Giving Transforms.’ Listen in as we discover together the blessing and spiritual battle you face when it comes to money and generosity.
Jeff continues our series by looking at the word: Justice. When you hear justice what do you think about? The criminal justice system? Social justice and how it does or doesn’t reflect the heart of God? Is there any part of you that wishes for ‘vigilante justice’ like we see in famous Hollywood films? The Bible has a lot to say about ‘justice’ and nobody demonstrates perfect justice like Jesus Christ. Listen in as we re-discover what biblical justice means and how we can partner with God today.
What happens when a Biblical word is co-opted by the agendas of our time? Perhaps no word in the last decade has been more hijacked than ‘Evangelical,’ shifting from its scriptural roots to a cultural definition. Yet, this ancient term is deeply rooted in the teachings of Isaiah and Paul. Join us as we rediscover the truth of God’s ‘Good News’ and explore how we’re called to proclaim His Kingdom today.
Jeff is kicking off the New Year with an exciting new series called Hijacked. Throughout history, many meaningful words in our faith have been misunderstood or misrepresented. This series is all about reclaiming those words and exploring their true, biblical meaning. In the first week, we’re diving into the word Christian. What does it really mean to be a Christian? How is this word used in scripture? And what does it teach us about following Jesus today? Join us as we begin 2025 together and rediscover the heart of what it means to live out our faith.
Join us for our online-only service as we wrap up 2024. Jeff explores the complex relationship many of us have with spiritual disciplines. Discover how one specific practice could help prepare our hearts for God's work in our community today and in the future.
