We often talk about our lives using directional terms. “I lost my way... I went the wrong way... I turned my life around.” The Bible uses the same kind of language. But what if “the way” we need to go is more than a direction? Join us this Christmas season as we remember what Christmas is all about: the arrival of The Way in a Manger 

Have you ever gotten lost during the Christmas season? We rarely know when we go from “I know my way” to “I’ve lost my way.” By the time we realize we’re lost, we’ve been lost for some time. How do you know if you’ve lost your way in life? How do you know what way is the right way?

Passage: Proverbs 14:12

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

You’ve heard the stories of how God has moved in other people’s lives. Now what are you going to do about it? Jesus didn’t come just for you to think that He’s a good person; He came and died so that you could live. He didn’t just come to change your Sunday morning, but to change your entire life. He didn’t die to make bad people good; He came to make dead people alive. Are you going to live in His Truth?

Passage: James 1:22-27

Speaker: Phil McKeon

Paul went from being “eager to kill the Lord’s followers” to perhaps being the greatest ambassador for Christ who has ever lived. It all started with an interruption of his routine; a challenge to everything that he knew and held dear. Without Jesus interrupting Paul’s status quo, Paul would have never flipped the script in his life from enemy to ambassador. What if God wants to use that inconvenient or life-shattering interruption in your life to change everything?

Passage: Acts 9:1-31

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

Mary Magdalene is introduced as the one “from whom Jesus had cast out seven demons,” and yet unlike some of Jesus’ closest friends, Mary didn’t need to put her hand in the risen Jesus’ side. She knew Him by His voice. While others may look at you and see only your past, know that Jesus is the one who holds your future. Know His voice.

Passage: Luke 8:2, John 20:1-18

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

Unlike Moses, we don’t get much of Rahab’s backstory. She is introduced merely as a prostitute. In a foreign city. Far from God’s plan, and far from hope. And yet by the time God is done with her story, she ends up playing a vital role in the ancestry of Israel’s kings, most notably of Jesus Himself. Your past does not determine your future, but it may put you in the right position for something amazing. God has made you and shaped you differently than everyone else around you. Will you use those differences to make a difference?

Passage: Hebrews 11:30-31; Matthew 1:5-6a

Speaker: Kurt Goglin

Sometimes it feels like our life story has already been written, like it’s too late to change the ending because of what you’ve done or what’s been done to you. But what if it wasn’t too late? What if God is giving you an opportunity to Flip The Script - to change how your story ends? Through this series, we’ll look at lives that were turned upside down - in the best way possible - when they encountered the author of the greatest story ever told.

As a young man, Moses took justice into his own hands and paid the price for it. After 40 years in exile, he trusted God’s plan for justice over his own, and God used that to free an entire nation. No matter how reckless your past may have been or how unqualified you may feel, keep your eyes on the One who is invisible and He will use your past to redeem your future.

Passage: Hebrews 11:23-29

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

Money is always talking, whispering that we don’t have enough, pushing us to chase more, or shaming us for falling behind. Whether we’re rich or broke, it can easily become our master. But Jesus calls us to something greater: to store up treasures in heaven, where our giving directs our hearts toward what lasts forever. When we put money on mission, as Paul describes in 2 Corinthians 9, our generosity not only meets needs but multiplies gratitude to God and transforms us as givers. The question we each must answer is this: Does money have me, or does God?

Passage: Matthew 6:19-24; 2 Corinthians 9:6-11

Speaker: Kurt Goglin

We often put ourselves first—spending, paying debt, taxes, and saving—leaving God with whatever is left. In the Old Testament, God commanded His people to tithe as a reminder to trust Him with their first and best, and Jesus raised the bar in the New Testament by teaching that where our treasure goes, our hearts will follow. The widow who gave all she had showed that true generosity comes from faith and surrender, not surplus. We are challenged to “flip the list” by making God our priority with our finances, starting somewhere, and giving out of trust, because God gave first by sending His Son for us.

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

We all ask it: "Where did it go?" Our paychecks disappear, our budgets feel tight, and financial stress is more normal than financial peace. But the problem isn’t just math—it’s mission. This series explores what Scripture says about debt, tithing, and eternal investment, helping people not just manage money better but trust God more deeply and live more generously. Jesus tells the story of the Rich Fool—a man who thought more stuff would bring more security, but died before he could enjoy it. His mistake wasn’t being rich—it was trusting in riches. In the same way, many today are buried under debt, trying to live lives we can’t afford in pursuit of peace we can’t buy. Debt promises freedom but delivers slavery (Proverbs 22:7). This week challenges us to stop letting money control us and instead take back our margin by putting God first.

Passage: Luke 12:13-21; Proverbs 22:7

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

Envy can lead us into any of the three emotions we’ve already discussed: sadness, anger, and anxiety. Deep down, we are always
striving to return to joy. The problem is that we often define joy on our own terms rather than God’s, which makes it elusive. Paul, however, finds true contentment because his focus is on God and others. He cares about what matters to God—reaching more people for Christ,
considering others as more important than himself, and knowing Christ above all else. That is why he can say, “I can do all things through Christ.” His life is consumed with Christ, and because of that, he is not overwhelmed

Speaker: Kevin Ozolins

Anxiety is another emotion that can easily take the driver’s seat in our lives. It can dominate our decisions, shift us from healthy preparedness to unhealthy obsession, and ultimately rob us of peace. While anxiety can serve a purpose—helping us stay alert and safe—how do we learn to walk in a way that brings peace instead of chaos?
