My Generation: U2You can't argue with a proven track record. For 35 years, U2 has been making music, creating hit after hit, and becoming one of the most successful artists of all time. In an industry where bands dissolve, success is fickle and character disintegrates - how has U2 managed to stay in their "first job" and consistently advance? In the final week of My Generation, we're going to take a look at what the Word of God and the music of U2 can teach us about how to position ourselves well to live ...

My Generation: Johnny CashThe Man in Black sang the songs of a nation and was beloved by many, but like so many artists, the cost of fame was the disintegration of his heart, home and family. He experienced the haunting question of scripture,"what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul?" He came near the brink of death, but at that place, Johnny experienced redemption - a turn - a second chance. Have you ever felt like you've gone too far? Wondered if another chance was even poss ...

My Generation: Led Zeppelin, The Stones, The WhoThe music of Led Zeppelin, The Stones and The Who, like so many others in rock'n roll, reflect time and again the restlessness of a seeking heart. We are all wondering who we are and why we're here. Often, that pursuit leads us to try to find these answers by looking to heaven or discovering the truth about good and evil. But What if what we're seeking is not as complicated as the world and our questions have made it out to be? The Bible talks about a peace that can be found in the pure ...

My Generation: Journey and Van HalenJourney and Van Halen are two quintessential bands that exemplify 80s rock, whose anthems challenged us to keep believing and risk it all for the life that's possible. Just like their lyrics reflect, as we search for who we are and who we're meant to be in this life, we have to decide if we are going to keep fighting, keep believing, and take the risk. Have you ever found yourself at that kind of a crossroad? What do you do when you are faced with the choice to believe God or fear, to pl ...

My Generation: RapThe world of rap is filled with people who made something out of nothing. Many rappers move quickly up the "ladder of success" and when they finally arrive, they feel like they can do it all. As a result, they think they don't need the help of anyone or anything, and the language of their lyrics has affected a generation to believe the same thing. This type of self-reliance is not only found in rap, it is part of all of us. It goes all the way back to the garden of Eden and before. Jes ...

My Generation: ColdplayWhat happens when you cross a line that suddenly changes everything - how you see yourself, how you relate to the people in your life, how people see you? What do you do with the regrets that pile up in your past? People cope in different ways. Some of us tend to lug them around, like a long train of baggage that robs the future through "what could have beens." Others of us try to distance ourselves from our mistakes, all the while finding ourselves shaped by the very thing we are longi ...

My Generation: The BeatlesDeep inside each person's heart is a longing to know they are loved. However, for many of us, love has been distorted by our culture and even those closest to us, those who were supposed to be a reflection of God's love for us. Among The Beatles many hits were a number of songs that point to and talk about this desire for love. The truth is love is meant to be experienced. The love of our Heavenly Father is meant to capture and complete us in ways that only He can. Regardless of the ba ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
My Generation: Michael JacksonMichael Jackson's life was a modern day tragedy - an unbelievably talented man that brought the world so much joy through his music, but a man that no one really knew...including himself. He tried every avenue to find out - talent, success, fame, changing his appearance, getting married, having a family - but he died never really understanding or being at peace with the "man in the mirror." For all the places that we might look to discover ourselves, how do we discover who we really are? ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
The Man Series 2.0: Declarations We Must Make (Baptism)There comes a time when men have to declare themselves, to have a line in the sand moment and to man up. Being a man of integrity isn't just about not cheating or not powering up, it's about more than just those moral things. It means not saying one thing and doing another or waffling or pretending. It's time to step up to be who we're really made to be and declare it. What would it mean to put a stake in the ground and no longer stand in the shadows with a side door open? It's time to ...

The Man Series 2.0: Every Man's KryptoniteMen think we want to be the king of the hill and that that's what will give us significance and meaning. But it's not just a game we play on the playground, it's what we try to do and become our whole lives. As much power as we can gain, in whatever our circle of influence, we try to climb to the top and have sway over others. This pursuit is not only damaging but sometimes fatal. Power and authority are gifts from God, but they are not meant to define us. So what does God have to say ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
The Man Series 2.0: Great Temptations of MenEvery man is made to fight a battle. Sometimes the greatest battle is within. There are subtle forces that threaten to wreck a man's life, his family and his destiny. There are temptations that are unique to a man's wiring that lure them away from the life they were made for. But winning these battles is really possible. God knows and understands the heart of a man. In His Word, God offers handles for winning these battles.

The Man Series 2.0: What I Wish You KnewYou've heard the saying "men are from Mars, women are from Venus." The truth is, communication between the sexes isn't easy. Relational complexities only add to the confusion and cloud the issues. Men and women often live saying lots of words while never hearing or understanding each other. But it doesn't have to stay that way. What if you could actually understand what the other sex wishes that you knew?Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
The Man Series 2.0: The Wolf PackMen think they can handle it and do life on their own. They think it's easy to tackle things by themselves...it's less complicated, more efficient and more productive. But that's not how we best live out the dreams God has for our lives. Men aren't meant to be isolated, they aren't designed to be islands. God made men to be relational creatures. Everyone needs people, men included.

Regardless of age, race, profession, or culture, they love expensive toys, they are incredibly drawn to and confused by women, what they say is what they mean, and yes...food and sex are really about all they need to be happy. Men are simple creatures! And yet, there's something planted in the hearts of men by God...their True Father...that is created for greatness. Men are not designed to ...

The Road: The Way HomeOver the last few weeks, we have been exploring God's grace towards us and our journey towards Him in our series The Road: A Story of Grace. Easter was God's proclamation to not quit or give in to a fatalistic hopelessness but to instead let His saving grace resurrect our lives from the weary travels and the choices we regret along the way. Jesus was raised to life and makes the same offer of life to us - in this life and the next. For all of the twists and turns on the journey so far, w ...

The Road: A Costly JourneyTo reach His lost kids, Jesus made an expensive journey - one that would cost Him everything. He left paradise to make a way for us to be with Him... choosing to walk the path all the way to the cross. With His own body and blood He paid the price for our sin in order to offer us a grace that can heal, restore and redeem the wreckage of our lives. It was a costly grace, but in order to make a way for us, it was worth it to Him. Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
The Road: LostOn this journey, somewhere we've gotten off track. In an attempt to find our way, ,some of us decide to walk a path of pride, a path of our own creation. Others of us find ourselves lost, surrounded by wreckage and questioning if we have the humility to admit our condition. So what really happens when we turn to God for help when we are lost? Is it really true that He is eager to intersect our journey with scandalous grace, free of charge for anyone who will turn to Him?Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
The Road: We Are Not AloneAs we chart our own course through life we find that sin, pain and brokenness litter the road. But God loves us too much to leave us for dead. While we're on this road, He pursues us every step of the way, discontent for us to face it alone. In His loving pursuit, He constantly shows Himself to us, fills our lives with head-on collisions with His great love and paves a path for us to turn to Him.

The Road: A Journey BeginsThis week we begin a remarkable series exploring God's grace towards us and our journey towards Him. God created us to love us, to know us, to be with us in a free, unhindered relationship. But He will not force Himself on us. Instead, He gives us the freedom to choose our own way, to choose our own journey. So where has the journey taken you?

Hostage: Robbed by RelationshipsSo often we approach life as though it's all about finding the perfect human relationships. We believe these relationships will fill the emptiness in our hearts and give us the contentment that we need. All the while, we find ourselves hurt and hollow inside when this emptiness does not subside. Whether it is a romantic relationship, a family connection or even a close friend, human relationships cannot complete us.

Hostage: Derailed by DesireThe "monster of more" is insatiable. The unquenchable desire for stuff convinces us that the next thing on our wish list will fulfill us. We go after it but it never satisfies us for long. It takes higher highs to achieve the same buzz, and you find yourself on a path you never intended to take. All the while your life becomes more and more narrow and self-centered. True freedom from this monster is really possible.

Hostage: Enslaved by InsecurityInsecurity gnaws at the foundational truth of who we are and how we value ourselves. It defines us by convincing us that "I'm not wanted...I don't matter...I'll never measure up." Insecurity, and its cousins comparison and jealousy, conspire together to trap us in an endless spiral as we continually seek approval and acceptance that never lasts. Falling prey to insecurity ultimately deprives us of our destiny. What if, instead, we experienced the truth of what God says about us? What if in ...

Hostage: Paralyzed by the PastGuilt, failure, shame and anger, mixed with disappointment, resentment and unforgiveness...they all tend to dredge up things we wish had never happened. In response, we often spend our lives trying to prove that's not the truth of who we are - or worse, settle for believing that's who we're destined to be. Then the cycle repeats itself. But that's not how it has to be. It's time to escape the bondage of the past and step into the future God has waiting for us all.Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website

Christianity Isn't... A FormulaIn our culture, in an attempt to simple down Christianity, people have reduced it to a formula. The math that follows assumes that if you follow a a prescribed set of rituals then it will guarantee us a certain outcome. But Christianity isn't some prayer or an incantation that forces God's hand. It isn't a set of practices that is proven with the reciting of certain words, singing certain songs, or acting a certain part. Instead, you are meant to be redefined by an intimate, loving, grace-f ... Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
Christianity Isn't... FairJesus challenges us to love our enemies. He taught that we don't get access to God based on being better than the next guy. In God's economy we don't receive love based on how we love and the truth is that bad things happen to good people- none of which is fair. But Christianity wasn't fair to Jesus- and it's not fair to us. God's heart, and Christianity's core, is something completely different. It's something far beyond our simplistic notion of fair.

Christianity Isn't... Having All the AnswersWe live messy lives in a sinful, broken world that leaves us wanting to make sense of it all, but Christianity isn't about having all the answers. Christianity doesn't offer neat and clean outlines of all of life's questions and the Bible's solutions. It's often in the gray areas where we find faith and trust - the real ingredient our hearts and lives need. Will you let the lack of answers and the unknowns compel you to search for God and know Him?Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
Christianity Isn't... Behavior ModificationChristianity isn't about being good or following rules. It isn't defined by high moral standards or being a better person. It's not even a behavioral system that happens to coincide with the teachings of the Bible. At the core of Christianity is the open acknowledgement that we are incapable of behaving. We will never be "good enough." Instead of trying harder or cleaning up our act, it's time to acknowledge the truth of our condition and let Himtransform us into His image.Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
Christianity Isn't... A Coping MechanismChristianity isn't designed to help people find emotional relief or gain a positive self-image. It isn't a coping mechanism to help us feel better about ourselves, assuage our guilt or avoid the pain in our lives. That isn't God's design or plan. When we try to apply it that way in our lives, we find ourselves disillusioned when it doesn't work. What if God doesn't want to just fix things or make us feel better but had something far more expansive in mind? Are we willing to let Him gra ...

Get ready for an infusion of vision to launch us into 2011 and the dreams God has for us individually and as a church. When our picture of Christianity (and of God) gets skewed and small, we come up against disillusionment and disappointment, but that was never God's design.

Being Christmas: Embody HopeWhen we talk about hope, we always focus on tomorrow. We hope for our circumstances to improve or look forward to an outcome in the future. What if hope isn't meant to be just an emotion we have today that's dependent on tomorrow going well? The truth is that Christmas points to a hope that can be a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls, a hope that supersedes everything that tomorrow may bring.Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
Being Christmas: Embrace JoyWe sing "Joy to the World," but what does it really mean? How do you live with joy as a tangible reality in your life? When Jesus was born, the angels couldn't keep silent: they brought good news that would bring great joy to all people. That joy is available to us today and when experienced, releases our ability to BE Christmas.Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website
Being Christmas: Experience GenerosityIn the place of our most desperate need, "God so loved the world that he GAVE..." We think Christmas is about getting, but it's actually about God giving. In the ultimate act of generosity, God sent His only boy as a helpless baby to save us. What if that same generosity marked us so much that we became givers rather than getters?

Signed, Sealed and Beheaded: HomePaul lived and died knowing that this world is not our home. His example reminds us that we aren't meant to spend our lives getting too comfortable or trying to make this world something it will never be.

Signed, Sealed and Beheaded: ReflexIn unimaginable circumstances, Paul never lost heart...He didn't blame God. He knew Him, and he trusted Him fully.

Signed, Sealed and Beheaded: UnafraidTo be the people who God created us to be, we can't live in fear.

Signed, Sealed and Beheaded: ChosenWith his final words, Paul wrote an intensely personal letter to his son in the faith, Timothy. It's a glimpse into the heart of one of the most influential men who ever lived. What would he say in his final moments on death row?
