This message focuses on Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane in Mark 14.32-42. He is painfully human in this account and it is through this suffering that we can learn the extent of his love. Jesus also modeled a pattern of prayer that we can emulate in our everyday lives, to come before God honestly, yielding and trusting his plans for our lives. “Yet not my will, but yours be done.” Mark 14.36

Jesus is asked a loaded question about taxes in Mark 12 and gives a stunning response. Everyone present was challenged by that response, and it is still just as challenging for us today. What does it look like to show honor and respect to our governing leaders while remembering it is in God alone we place our hope and worship?

Where have you experienced desperate places? How do you handle a frustrated timeline? How might you more deeply experience the outrageous love of God?

In this message Mackenzie Matthews explores Mark 2.13-17 and the ways Jesus saw and invited the most socially despicable people (tax collectors) to belong with Him. The statement Jesus makes at the end of this account is a profound one: that He came not for the healthy but the sick. This message will challenge you to evaluate how you extend Gods welcome to those you come in contact with and it will encourage you to see yourself righty: a deeply flawed sinner covered in perfect grace.

What does it look like to worship alongside suffering?

In this message Mackenzie Matthews concludes our series ‘Who Do We Think We Are?’ unpacking Jesus’ words to the church in Ephesus in Revelation chapter 2. This church community was commended by Jesus for their right behavior and right beliefs but were accused of leaving their first love. We have a God who longs to be top priority in our hearts and who instructs us on what to do when our love has grown cold.
