What Good News Really Looks Like
Pastor Kari Jacott
"After Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples,
he went on from there to teach and preach in the towns of
Galilee. When John, who was in prison, heard about the deeds
of the Messiah, he sent his disciples to ask him, “Are you the
one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?”

Hospitality and the Presence of God
Pastor Kari Jacott
"Now Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that
he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John—
although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his
disciples. So he left Judea and went back once more to
Galilee. Now he had to go through Samaria. So he came
to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground
Jacob had given to his son Joseph. Jacob’s well was there,
and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the
well. It was about noon."

Christian Hospitality
Zach Lovig
"When one of those at the table with him heard this,
he said to Jesus, “Blessed is the one who will eat at
the feast in the kingdom of God.” Jesus replied: “A
certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited
many guests. At the time of the banquet he sent his
servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come,
for everything is now ready.’"

How To Rest
Pastor Kari Jacott
"He will also send you rain for the seed you sow in the ground,
and the food that comes from the land will be rich and plentiful.
In that day your cattle will graze in broad meadows. The oxen
and donkeys that work the soil will eat fodder and mash, spread
out with fork and shovel. In the day of great slaughter, when the
towers fall, streams of water will flow on every high mountain and
every lofty hill. The moon will shine like the sun, and the sunlight will
be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the Lord
binds up the bruises of his people and heals the wounds he inflicted."
Isaiah 30

Why Do We Rest?
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.
By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so
on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the
seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the
work of creating that he had done.”
Genesis 2:1-3

Relationship Superpowers: Our Spiritual Gifts
Pastor Kari Jacott
Now about the gifts of the Spirit, brothers and sisters,
I do not want you to be uninformed. You know that when
you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced
and led astray to mute idols. Therefore I want you to know
that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says,
“Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,”
except by the Holy Spirit.

Doing Relationships in Jesus’ Style
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy
of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or
only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand
firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the
gospel without being frightened in any way by those who oppose
you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you
will be saved—and that by God. For it has been granted to you on
behalf of Christ not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him,
since you are going through the same struggle you saw I had, and |
now hear that I still have.”
Philippians 1:27-2:11

Relationships 101
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your
heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This
is the first and greatest commandment. And the second
is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and
the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Meaning and Purpose of Work
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Then the Lord said to Moses, “See, I have chosen Bezalel
son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and I have
filled him with the Spirit of God, with wisdom, with understanding,
with knowledge and with all kinds of skills— to make artistic
designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones,
to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of crafts.”

The Message Over Job That Really Really Really Really Really Isn’t About Suffering
Pastor Zach Lovig

“Who is this that obscures my plans
with words without knowledge?
Brace yourself like a man;
I will question you,
and you shall answer me.”

Discipleship of Work
Pastor Kari Jacott
”In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over
the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering
over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there
was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated
the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the
darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there
was morning—the first day.”

Storing Up Trouble: The Rich Fool’s Folly
Pastor Steve Eng
”Then he said, ‘This is what I’ll do. I will tear down my
barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my
surplus grain. And I’ll say to myself, “You have plenty
of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink
and be merry.”’ “But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very
night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will
get what you have prepared for yourself?’ “This is how it
will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is
not rich toward God.”

Discipleship of Money
Pastor Kari Jacott
”And now, brothers and sisters, we want you to know
about the grace that God has given the Macedonian
churches. In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing
joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity.
For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and
even beyond their ability. Entirely on their own, they urgently
pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to
the Lord’s people.”

Spiritual Gifts
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy,
to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—
this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern
of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his
good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Romans 12:1-9

Discipleship of The Body
Pastor Kari Jacott
”Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that
“We all possess knowledge.” But knowledge puffs
up while love builds up. Those who think they know
something do not yet know as they ought to know.
But whoever loves God is known by God.”
1 Corinthians 8:1-13

Discipleship of the Body
Pastor Kari Jacott
“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial.
“I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything.
You say, “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will
destroy them both.” The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality
but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. By his power God raised the
Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. Do you not know that your
bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of
Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! Do you not know that he
who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said,
“The two will become one flesh.” But whoever is united with the Lord is
one with him in spirit.”
1 Corinthians 6:12-20

The Holy Spirit Renewing Our Minds
Pastor Kari Jacott
”By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—I, Paul,
who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold” toward you
when away! I beg you that when I come I may not have to be as bold
as I expect to be toward some people who think that we live by the
standards of this world. For though we live in the world, we do not
wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the
weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to
demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension
that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive
every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
2 Corinthians 10:1-5

Transforming Worry to Trust
Pastor Kari Jacott
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life,
what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what
you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body
more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they
do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet
your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much
more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying
add a single hour to your life?”
Matthew 6:25-34

He is Worthy
Pastor Kari Jacott
”By the humility and gentleness of Christ, I appeal to you—
I, Paul, who am “timid” when face to face with you, but “bold”
toward you when away! I beg you that when I come I may not
have to be as bold as I expect to be toward some people who
think that we live by the standards of this world.”
Corinthians 10:1-5
