We want to be a resource for you in your commitment to the way of Jesus. There is no doubt that this page will evolve over time as we grow and are able to really stretch our legs as a community. Below you will find some resources that we highly recommend.

To get back to our faith, we can take simple steps like reading the Bible, praying, or coming to church. The simplest step TOWARD God can be all you need. He will meet you in your pain and help you take the next steps. What is the next step you need to take toward God?

Devotional Life

A lot can happen in 24hrs. Good, bad, and everything in-between. In light of that, we have found that it is absolutely essential to have a regular time to come back to center, to catch our breath, to direct our attention to God and reorient ourselves around what matters most. It goes by a lot of names-quiet time, daily devotional, centering…call it what you want, just know it matters. Here are a few wonderful resources that can bring some order to your “whatever you call it.”

The Bookstore

The word Christian only shows up three times in the Bible and it wasn’t first used as a compliment. The first followers of Jesus didn’t call themselves Christian. They called themselves something else that shows up nearly 300 times in the scriptures. The word is disciple. Disciple means student or apprentice. A disciple is first and foremost a learner-one who stays curious. Below you will find some recommended reading for our current series and for each of our Common Practices, which you can learn more about here.
