Love is easy to talk about. It's a lot harder to actually practice on real people. The one who hurt you and never apologized. The family member who comes with a disclaimer. The person who never changes no matter what you do. Loving difficult people is where inner transformation gets real — and where most of us need serious backup. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor

We all want to look back and know our life meant something. But what separates a life story of impact from one of regret? It's not perfection — David's own messy, complicated story proves that. It's direction. This week, discover the posture that helps build a worthwhile legacy and bring purpose to every chapter of your story, even the hard and broken ones. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Broken relationships rarely happen overnight—but left unaddressed, they can unravel everything. This week we look at the tragic fallout between David and his son Absalom and the cost of avoiding hard conversations. Discover why avoidance is easier in the moment but devastating in the end—and how repentance, forgiveness, and courageous love can begin to heal what’s been fractured. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Even the strongest stories can unravel in a moment. This week we look at David’s moral collapse with Bathsheba—not to judge, but to learn. By examining the warning signs that led to his fall, we’ll discover how to recognize danger before it becomes damage—and how repentance can begin a comeback. Because your worst chapter doesn’t have to be your final word. Speaker: Ryan Leak, Teaching Pastor

David wasn’t chosen because he was perfect—but because his heart reflected God’s. This week we’ll explore what it really means to be “after God’s own heart” and how David’s honest, whole-life relationship with God shaped everything he did. Discover how bringing your full self to a gracious, compassionate God can transform the story you’re writing. Speaker: Eric Torrence, Executive Pastor of Creative Expressions

No one writes a great story alone. The people closest to us shape who we become—and the direction our lives take. This week we’ll look at the powerful friendship between David and Jonathan and discover the kind of relationships that help us stay aligned, stand firm, and grow stronger in our faith. Because the right friends don’t just walk with us through life—they help us become who God is calling us to be. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Every one of us faces moments when doing the right thing feels costly, inconvenient, or unfair. In David’s story, we see what integrity looks like when temptation is loud and the easy way out is right in front of us. This week we’ll discover why the right thing is always the right thing—and how choosing the high road, one decision at a time, shapes the story we’re writing with our lives. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

We all carry reasons we think God could never use us—our past, our failures, our insecurities. But God doesn’t choose the way people do. He looks past appearances and resumes and sees the heart. This week we’ll discover how David’s story reminds us that God specializes in choosing the overlooked, the underestimated, and the unlikely—and He’s still doing it today. Speaker: Jeff Jones, Lead Pastor

Every year comes with goals, habits, and fresh intentions—but nothing shapes our lives more than our relationships. Scripture gives us a different kind of relational code through the powerful “one another” commands: encourage one another, pray for one another, honor one another, and forgive one another. This message explores how choosing these practices can transform the way we love, heal, and grow together—and why living them out may be the most important decision you make this year.
