What does it mean to be salt and light in this world? As the series on the Sermon on the Mount continues, Pastor Glenn Packiam explains how Jesus once again deals with our identity before addressing our behavior. Because He is salt and light, we--together as the people of God--have become a preserving presence and a visible witness in the world. We are challenged not to withdraw from the world but to work in it, cultivating the "soil" around us, fueled by the love of Christ, for the sake of the world and for the glory of God.

In this special Mother's Day message, Pastor Glenn Packiam "interviews" his wife, Holly about her journey as a mother. Through her vulnerability and wisdom, we find a reminder for all of us--in every season and stage of life--that we cannot live well and love well on our own. Glenn wraps up the talk by showing us how women reflect the image of God into our world, and by calling us again to the Fountain of Love-- our Triune God.

Who's got it made? Who's living the good life? Jesus turns our notion of success and "blessedness" on its head. The Beatitudes are a stunning reversal of fortunes made possible because of God's arriving Kingdom. Pastor Glenn Packiam helps us see that Jesus lived this kind of upside-down life, and it resulted in His death. Yet God vindicated Jesus by raising Him from the dead, showing that this kind of life wins out in the end. But is such a life possible? In Christ, our blessedness trumps our brokenness, making Christ's blessing the truer word, the final word, and the transforming word.

Our deepest hope is for the God who created the world to come & be King in it. The stunning announcement of the Gospels is that He has. Moreover, this King inaugurates His Kingdom by founding a new people. The Sermon on the Mount is our Magna Carta, our constitution. In the first installment if this series, Pastor Glenn Packiam helps us understand what the sermon is, and how it can only be understood in the light of Jesus' gracious, costly, and transforming call. To live as the community of the called, we must keep coming back to the One Who calls.

Having framed the conversation of who Church is by broadening our understanding of Jesus and salvation, Pastor Glenn Packiam explores what it means to say that the Church has been sent into the world to bear witness that Jesus is King. We find that the New Testament joins proclamation of the Gospel with demonstration of the Gospel, so that our announcement of Jesus' reign and our actions in Jesus' name form a unified witness. Toward the end of the sermon, Glenn explains one way New Life Church does this in our global missions effort through our partnership with Children's Hope Chest in Swaziland.

What comes to mind when you hear the word, "church"? This question strikes at our deep desire to belong, to know our place within the world. Yet, when our hopes are the highest, the hurt can be the deepest, and so for many, "church" conjures memories of hurt and pain. In order to deal well with the question of who 'Church' is, Pastor Glenn Packiam helps us to zoom out and ask who Jesus is and what is the salvation that He brings. Working through these questions, we pull the curtain back from many popular approaches to church and mission and begin the work of recovering the Kingdom-shape seen in the Book of Acts. Finally, Pastor Glenn walks us through the specify family values of New Life Church.

Lent is 6 Sundays long; Easter, however, is 7 Sundays. Why? Because the Feast outlasts the Fast. With God, joy and victory and generosity, not sorrow and suffering and stinginess, get the last word. In this shortened homily (because of a potluck!), Pastor Glenn Packiam explains how the Feast helps us to see what God is truly like, to learn how to be a Family, and to proclaim the Future that has already begun.

On Easter Sunday, we conclude the Conversations Series by looking at the story of Jesus and the disciples on the Emmaus Road. With downcast faces, dashed hopes, and dull hearts, they were walking away from the cross; yet Jesus drew near to them and joined them on their journey. Preaching the sermon in two segments, with a time of worship in between, Pastor Glenn Packiam calls us to see that Jesus joins us on our journey, becomes the Host at the Table, and opens our eyes to see with a new holy imagination, the resurrection life of God at work in the world.

Good Friday is one of the most important dates on the Christian Church's calendar. Join pastor Daniel Grothe for a church-wide candlelight service to remember the sacrifice, suffering and death of our Lord Jesus Christ, who bore sin and death in his body for the life of the world.

On Palm Sunday, we turn our hearts to the God who has come to save. But the nagging question is, "Whom does He save?" Is it possible to have done too much or be too late? Pastor Glenn Packiam teaches from Luke 23 about Jesus' conversation with the criminal on the cross, a man who is literally on the outside--left outside the city to be killed--and nearly out of time. Yet the beauty of the Gospel is that because Jesus is with us in the place of the Skull, we can be with Him in the place of renewal, Paradise. Only with Jesus do we get out back together, re-membered.

Speaker:	Daniel Grothe
Date:	Mar 17, 2013

Speaking from Luke 8, Pastor Daniel Grothe helps us to see a Jesus who asks our name and comes to us across a great chasm, restoring us and setting us right. Not only are we the ones restored, but we are invited into this story, calling others to this Jesus as well.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

What's it like to be stuck? Whether wrestling with a habitual sin or simply living with a sin nature, we are often reminded that without Christ we lack the desire and the ability to be different. Like the man laying by the pool, we need Jesus to see us and speak words of life to us, "creative" words that call us to get up, pick up our "mats" and walk. Pastor Glenn Packiam leads us to a spiritual reading of this text, helping us hear these words of Jesus and imagine what they may mean for us today.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

As we continue to "journey with Jesus to the cross" during Lent, we take a closer look at the Samaritan woman that Jesus stopped to talk with at the well. Glenn Packiam helps us see how Jesus restored her dignity, rescued her destiny, and re-centered her identity on Him. Jesus calls us to lay down our water jars - the things of the world that we look to for satisfaction - and the come to Him as the Fountain of Living Water.

With whom do you eat and drink? Often, it's with people who are just like us. Meals-- table fellowship--had very special significance in the world of the Gospel-writers, which is what made Jesus's choice to eat and drink with "sinners" controversial. Yet part of following Jesus is learning to invite and include others in to a Great Banquet, at which Jesus is both the Host and the Feast. Teaching from Luke 5:27-32, Pastor Glenn challenges us to see that the only way we can truly begin to love "sinners" is not by being "irreligious" and throw the rules out or by making it another "religious duty." We must, instead, recognize that we are sinners too, and let God's grace begin to change us from the inside out.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

There are two ways to live: as an orphan or as a slave, as a relativist or a moralist. Each way deeply affects the way we experience the two great themes in life - the pursuit of virtue and the pain of suffering. But Jesus offers us a different way. Because God has come to us, because Jesus has done for us what we could not do for ourselves, we don't have to live as orphans or slaves; we can be sons and daughters. Pastor Glenn calls us to see the generous grace of our Father as he explores these themes in Jesus's famous parable of the "Prodigal Son."

What makes marriage glorious? In a word, intimacy-- the joy of being fully known and fully loved. Yet, as Pastor Glenn Packiam explains, even when we learn to turn our desires into requests, there are times when our spouse will fail us. Sin is at work, bending us into selfishness, and pulling our relationship apart. Only in Christ do we truly begin to come together. When Jesus becomes our source and our center, we are able to take our requests to God, forgive one another, and give sacrificially to each other.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

Friendship builds on commonness, exclusiveness, and multiplied joy and virtue. Yet all three can get distorted and relationships become ugly. The uncomfortable truth is that we do not truly have the friends we wish we could have, and we cannot be the kind of friend we wish we could be. Pastor Glenn Packiam shows how these unfulfilled longings point us to Christ, the true Friend who laid down His life for us even when we treated Him as our enemy. When we recognize Jesus as the source of Joy, the fountain of Divine Love flows through us, transforming our approach to friendship, freeing us to love whole-heartedly and forgive quickly.

In the third and final part of this series from Romans 12, we explore what it means to be the one who shares, with simplicity, generosity and intentionality; what it means to be the one who oversees, with commitment and concern for others; and what it means to be the one who shows mercy, with cheerfulness, wholeheartedness, and graciousness. Pastor Glenn also explains how we discover our gifts not by being self-consumed but by being changed by grace, seeing needs and stepping out in faith to serve others. After all, grace is the fountain, gifts are the overflow, and Jesus is the source.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

Spiritual gifts are how God's grace come to a visible expression in us. But in week two of this series, Pastor Glenn reminds us that what God creates, He invites us to cultivate. Spiritual gifts, then, are not just to be discovered; they are to be developed. Continuing through Paul's list of spiritual gifts in Romans 12, we learn how serving, teaching, and exhorting reveal Jesus and express God's grace to others.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Jan 13, 2013

When we think of a person being "gifted", we either see it as a reason to exclude ourselves or as an opportunity to improve ourselves. But neither is close to what the Bible has to say about spiritual gifts. Pastor Glenn Packiam explains that because the church is a community formed by grace and gifted by God's grace, spiritual gifts are given to us as a way to express God's grace to others. First on the list in Romans 12:3-8 is prophecy, which is simply "Spirit-inspired speech that helps us reveal Jesus to others in a way that strengthens, encourages, and comforts them."

Spiritual practices, like prayer, are not about impressing God but inviting God to work in our lives. Yet, if we're honest, we struggle with prayer because we're not sure what to pray, or if God cares, or what prayer accomplishes. Pastor Glenn draws from Jesus' teaching on prayer to show us how prayer is a learned language, a personal encounter, and a powerful invitation for God to bring His saving and restoring rule to bear upon the brokenness of our lives and our world.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

As we conclude our journey through the Book of Acts, Pastor Glenn recaps Luke's message that the Gospel cannot be stopped. Jesus- the Saving and Victorious King- invites us to join His Story, a Story that will make our world larger and us altogether different. As we do, we discover that with God even what we think is the end is not really the end. In Acts 28, Paul ends up in prison, not the ending we were expecting. But even there he preaches the Kingdom of God with boldness and without hindrance. Where are the dead ends in your life? What if you began to believe that even that is not the end? How would you live if you knew you couldn't die? What would you risk if you knew you couldn't lose? How would you love if you knew love would win?

Preaching from the Song of Simeon- the "Nunc Dimittis"--Pastor Glenn Packiam shows how Jesus is the great culmination of all our deepest hopes, the fulfillment of our truest longing. It turns out that what we need most is exactly what God has been preparing from the beginning, and what He has promised: salvation. Salvation is the coming back together of God's world, beginning with our hearts being set right with God. Can we have eyes to see what Simeon saw, to see the "salvation that God has prepared in the presence of all peoples"?

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

What is God like? Though we may know the right answer, we easily slip back into a tribal view of God as punitive and retributive. Like Adam and Eve hiding in the garden, we cower in fear. But God has always been, in His essence, Love. Preaching from the Magnifcat, Pastor Glenn Packiam shows that God makes His mercy arrive wave after wave, reaching its fullness in Christ.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Dec 16, 2012

In a world of anxiety and fear, is it really possible to "be of good cheer"? While we may be tempted to achieve a kind of "cheerfulness" but ignoring grief or numbing our anxiety, Pastor Glenn shows how Paul exhorts the sailors in Acts 27 to have faith in God, even when all hope is lost. It is when we come to end of ourselves, overwhelmed by the surging waves of Chaos and Evil that we find our God to be not only the Sovereign over the storm, but the Savior in the midst of it.

Date:	Dec 9, 2012

Pastor Glenn talks from the song of the angels in Luke 2, explaining that the peace God brings is not a generic peace, but a particular saving peace to the ones whom God favors--the unlikely and unworthy ones now favored because of Christ. It is peace with God and peace in a troubled world. As we remember the tragic shooting that happened at our church 5 years ago, we see the unshakable peace that God has given us and recognize the faithfulness of God to us when we least expected it. Moreover, this peace has been shown to us so that we can carry this peace to others in a tangible way.

Contentment can feel like a moving target. How do we know when enough is enough? Yet until we are content in our hearts, we will struggle to live at peace with others. As we follow Paul's trial before Jewish and Roman authorities as it progresses this week in Acts 25, we take a closer look at how Paul was able to live at peace with others because he had learned the secret of being content. Pastor Glenn Packiam draws on two of Paul's letters written around this season of Paul's life- Romans and Philppians- to show how we can find our sufficiency in Christ and be content in every situation.

When everything seems lost, what gives us hope that God will sort things out and set things right? Pastor Glenn Packiam teaches from Paul's speech to Felix in Acts 24, highlighting Paul's emphatic claim that he worships the same God and has the same hope as the Jews. In other words, Paul saw Jesus not as a "Plan B" but as the culmination of the story of Israel and the fulfillment of God's covenant with them. Moreover, the resurrection, the long promised hope that God the Creator would set everything right at last, was now a certain hope because it had already happened to Jesus. This is what gives us hope today.

How should we, as followers of Jesus, think about government? Some may be turned off by an overly politicized faith and dismiss political engagement as irrelevant; others may insist that government is a key to the Kingdom advancing. Pastor Glenn Packiam unpacks Paul's interactions with two rulers in Acts 23--one Jewish and the other Roman-- to show how we must respect authorities while reminding them who the rightful Ruler of this world is. As we discover parallels between the political climate of the 1st century and our own day, we are challenged to see Jesus as God's Kingdom-bringer, the saving King and true hope of the world.

Is it possible for God to use you right where you are to speak of His grace? What if every part of your story- your strengths and your brokenness- can be woven together for 'such a time as this'? As we explore Acts 22, Pastor Glenn Packiam challenges us to see Christ as the one who calls us, prepares us and sends us out into the world each day. Even in the midst of the ordinary or the difficult moments, Christ is with us, filling us with His Spirit, sending us as witnesses to His grace. But as He does, don't be offended at God's surprising generosity to those we did not expect to be the recipients of His grace.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Oct 21, 2012

We have been called to participate in the "Jesus Life" by imitating- re-tracing- the life of Christ with our own life. This "Christ shape" can be seen as an "even when" kind of obedience: an obedience "even when" God warns of opposition, loved ones try to discourage us, and people misjudge us. Pastor Glenn Packiam shows how Paul embraced obedience to the Lord's will for his life even when it meant suffering because it also meant the chance to share in the "fellowship of Christ's sufferings."

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Oct 14, 2012

Is there a difference between being "drained" and being "spent"? Is the difference related to people "taking" from us versus when we "lay our lives down" for others? In Paul's farewell speech to the Ephesian elders- leaders of the church where Paul spent the longest amount of time- he urges them to follow his example in caring for God's people. Pastor Glenn Packiam calls us to drink deeply of the "incredibly extravagant generosity of God" so that we can spend ourselves for the sake of others. Only when we see how Christ spent His life for us and for others will be able to spend ourselves. Then, instead of being drained, we will find that we have lived lives "well spent."

Many of us know that communion is important, but we're not always sure why. In fact, if we're honest, we tend to be so afraid of being superstitious (like the Medieval Church?) about it, that we tend to downplay it and emphasize "purely spiritual" ways of encountering God. Using Scripture, Church history, and compelling examples of our own need for physical "focal practices", Dr. Steven Todd explains how we can reclaim the power and the mystery of coming to the Lord's Table.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

What does it mean to announce Jesus as the King? What difference does it make to make the focus of our Gospel-proclamation and demonstration the person of Christ instead of the "plan of salvation"? As Pastor Glenn Packiam teaches from Acts 19, he explores three things that result from the Kingdom arriving in Ephesus through Paul's ministry there. We see the Church being formed there as a sign of the arriving Kingdom, we see captives being set free, and we find that all other loyalties are challenged. May God bring the full force of His Kingship to bear on our lives as we surrender to Jesus the King.

In a culture that idealizes the "self-made individual", many of us feel stuck when we run out of strength. Rather then telling us to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps or quit altogether, Pastor Glenn explains from Acts 18 how the Gospel challenges us to allow God to bring us strength through friendships, through His presence, and through a large and diverse community of faith. With Christ forming our identity, His word dwelling in us richly, and His Spirit filling us continually, we learn a Godly sense of dependency and embrace the end of the "hero myth."

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Sep 16, 2012

We know we need to engage our culture with the Gospel, but what is the core of the Gospel announcement? Moreover, how do the claims of the Gospel confront the specific "idols" and "religions" of our day? Pastor Glenn Packiam explores how Paul, in Acts 17, moves outward for the core Gospel announcement-- that Jesus is the Messiah!-- to engage and challenge both the moralists and the pleasure-seekers of his day. In the end, this talk is not simply about how we will talk about the Gospel, but about what we will do with the Good News that we hear.

Cities are often places where people from many different so-called strata of society collide. The question that Luke seems to address in Acts 16 and onward is whether or not the Gospel has anything to say to these different people. Often, we wonder the same thing: Is the message of Jesus just for the simple-minded country folk, or does it speak to all of humanity? As Pastor Glenn Packiam unpacks Acts 16, he shows how the Gospel is indeed for the powerful, the powerless, and the hopeless...and why it remains good news today.

Want to know what new life DOWNTOWN is all about? Pastor Glenn Packiam explains that bonding around activity may connect us quickly but loosely, but bonding around a shared identity is a slower yet more binding work. He shares three words from the Eucharist-- "blessed," "broken," "given"-- that form our identity as the people of God. Hear the power of the Gospel, learn what it means to live in Christian Community, and find out how we as a congregation will engage in Mission together in our city.

In Acts 15, the early church faced the biggest challenge of its young existence: What were they going to require of the Gentiles in order for them to be part of the family of God? The question rings true even today: What does it take for others to come in, to join the people of God? Pastor Glenn Packiam explores three aspects of what it means to be a "Gospel-Shaped Community", and why it truly is good news for the world.

What gives meaning to our struggle--our toil and hardship-- in life? While some insist that there is no "framing story" that makes sense of our life, we often find ourselves inadvertently living as if "success" or "self-fulfillment" were our meaning-giving narrative. As Pastor Glenn explores Acts 14, we see Paul and Barnabas go from being treated like gods to being stoned like criminals. Success is fleeting, and self-fulfillment is too flimsy to help us in moments like that. How does Paul, beaten and bruised and bloodied, find the strength to get up, walk to a nearby town, and keep preaching the good news? Discover the only Story large enough to give meaning to our stories, and how we are reminded of that Story by the faithful community around us.

Acts 13 is kind of like "Episode 1" of "Season 2" in the Book of Acts. Paul takes over the lead role as Peter ducks out of the limelight. But Paul's gospel preaching is true to the core of what Peter- and others- had been preaching, with the same key phrase repeating throughout his first sermon: 'But God raised Jesus from the dead.' To many of us, Jesus' resurrection seems like icing on the cake; but to the first apostles, it was the very heart of the Gospel. Pastor Glenn Packiam preaches this sermon in three movements with worship interludes (songs not on podcast), helping us see the cosmic, social, and personal ramifications of Jesus' resurrection.

Some of us are uneasy at the thought of an Enemy of God, actively opposing God's work in the world. Others of us are all to quick to name the Enemy as a person they know! The truth is, there is Evil in God's good world, seen in both systemic and individual ways. But, as Pastor Glenn Packiam reveals from Acts 12, we do not oppose this Enemy with his ways. The people of God do not follow the Way of King Herod- the way of violence and power. Instead, we participate in Jesus' never-ending, unstoppable Kingdom through prayer. Herod's kingdom decomposes, while the word of Christ and of His rule flourishes forever.

Chances are, the word 'repentance' has negative connotations for you. It evokes memories of angry preachers and the feeling of shame. Yet Acts 11 calls repentance something that leads to Life. Pastor Glenn Packiam unpacks what it means to "turn away from" sin and "turn toward Christ", and why we do so. We find that as our faces behold the grace of God in the face of Christ, we can then turn toward the world, shining with this same grace.

Have you ever felt like you were on the outside looking in? Or perhaps there are people that you've become convinced are not part of your "tribe"? Pastor Glenn Packiam unpacks Acts 10 as the story of how the Spirit of God carries the Gospel beyond the social and cultural barriers we often construct between "us" and "them." Jesus, the One who stands at the center of the Bible's salvation narrative, makes outsiders insiders. He is the Lord of a great feast. In Him, all are welcome and no one is unclean.

In our busy, fast-paced world, we are well acquainted with interruptions. Most of these interruptions, though, are distractions and not interventions. As Pastor Glenn Packiam unpacks the well-known story of Saul's conversion in Acts 9, we discover that when God interrupts us, it is to commission us for a new way of living, a way that ends up being our salvation-- and sometimes, it leads to someone else's salvation as well.

After a week of devastating fires that ravaged hundreds of homes and forced thousands to evacuate, this week's text seemed providential. Acts 8 is about the Church being scattered, preaching the Good News along the way, and bringing joy to the city they find themselves in as a result. Pastor Glenn Packiam explores how we are a scattered people- by crisis or by choice- and how we can learn to see it as the Spirit sending us out into the world to seek the "Shalom" of our city and preach the Good News along the way.

In Acts 7, Stephen gives a stunning re-telling of Israel's story, revealing how they have repeatedly rejected God. As Pastor Glenn unpacks Stephen's sermon, we see that though we, too, have bee notoriously unfaithful, God is gloriously faithful. In Jesus, God culminates the single story of salvation He began in Abraham. Discover the beauty and mystery of our salvation story as we remember that God never scraps His projects, or forgets His promises, or abandons His people.

Acts 6 seems to be about the ordinary matters of administration. But in this story we find a remarkable picture of how servant leaders arise and are established. We also see how the apostles became "fathers" in the Church instead of business managers because they devoted themselves to prayer and the Word of God. With a little "Biblical imagination", Pastor Glenn Packiam helps us see a parallel message here for fathers on Fathers' Day, and calls us to see Jesus as our Servant Leader who brings us to the Table where we meet our Faithful Father God.

Most of us have come to understand that worship is much more than what happens on a Sunday morning. But in the midst of making "everything worship", we've lost a sense of why corporate worship matters.

Acts 5 shows the young church facing trouble from within and opposition from without. Yet in the midst of it, God gives them signs of His continuing work. As we enter the story, Pastor Glenn challenges us to think how we may be tempted to, like Ananias and Sapphire, undermine the honesty and trust within the community of God's people, or, like, the Saduccees, cling to control and miss God's work. In the end, the message for us is clear: when we move in the opposite direction of the world, we will suffer shame for the name of Jesus; but we can trust that God is still at work and that we are in good company.

What does it mean to speak in the name of Jesus? As we explore the story of Peter and John brining dignity and wholeness to man who had been an outcast since birth, we discover that prayer gives us eyes to see the world, to truly see the ones that pain keeps in a prison. Then, taking a closer look at how we pray for healing, Pastor Glenn Packiam invites us to embrace the tension of living in a Kingdom that is both now and not yet, helping us understand the difference between magic and miracles along the way.

The followers of Jesus have received the Holy Spirit- God's empowering presence- and have heard Peter proclaim Jesus as both the "Sovereign One" (LORD) and "Saving One" (Messiah). Now we want to know if there is more to being the Church than presence and proclamation. In this sermon, Pastor Glenn Packiam examines four core strands of the Church's DNA: the Apostles' Doctrine, Fellowship, the Breaking of Bread, and Prayer. Along the way, we discover the importance of becoming disillusioned with our own ideals of community and learn to become grateful recipients and participants in the community Christ has formed at His Table.

Part of being a follower of Jesus means proclaiming Him to the world. But what exactly are we to say about Him? We often hear people talk about Jesus as their "personal Lord and Savior," but the sermons in Acts don't talk about Jesus that way. They say something much larger- and much more confrontational- than that. In Part 3 of this series on the Book of Acts, Pastor Glenn Packiam takes a closer look at Peter's sermon to examine how the first followers of Jesus "preached the Gospel" and what that might mean for us today.

Continuing our series through the Book of Acts, Pastor Glenn Packiam explores the pouring out of the Holy Spirit on the first followers of Jesus. Luke describes the Holy Spirit in a disruptive and untamable way, difficult to dismiss and resistant to our desire for formulas. And yet, what happened at Pentecost was not a private ?ecstatic experience? but rather God?s empowering presence giving the early Church the power to proclaim Christ, even amidst persecution and opposition.

The Book of Acts is exactly what we need to explore as we wrestle with the questions of "Why Church"? and "What is Church?" After all, this collective of stories are formed in a narrative with the likely intent of helping the early congregations remember their story. Pastor Glenn Packiam begins our series in the Book of Acts by exploring what it means to wait. Waiting is what forms us as the people of God and fills us with the power of God, making us ready each day to live as an outpost of the Kingdom of God here on earth.

What does it mean to live like Jesus has risen? Does it mean our evacuation plan has been secured and so we just wait it out? Or does it mean that we try to take the world by force? Or is there a different way altogether to see Jesus? resurrection? A careful look at the way the first followers of Jesus saw Jesus? resurrection shows that they saw it as a sign that the rightful King has taken His place and a new community and a new way of living has begun in the world. Unpacking Ephesians 4-5, Pastor Glenn Packiam shows how we can live like Jesus has risen? with an extraordinary, self-giving love? because we are dearly loved children of God who are being filled with Spirit of God.

Pastor Glenn Packiam continues the ?Legends & Misfits? series with a look at the young King David in 2 Samuel 6 compared to an older King David in 2 Samuel 11. What is it that changes us from being free and open-handed to being controlling and closed-handed? The truth is, the tighter we grasp, the less we have and the smaller our world becomes. Discover how grateful worship can open us up once again to our gracious and generous God.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Feb 26, 2012

"As part of the 'Legends & Misfits' series, we will be taking the next few weeks to look at aspects of the life of David. In this talk, Pastor Glenn Packiam explores David as the warrior who learns how God works with where he is and who he is. But the most pivotal part of David's victory is the understanding that God wins in a different way, a truth that becomes clear in the life of Jesus, the Messiah, the Son of David, in whom we have victory over the enemy."

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Feb 19, 2012

Pastor Glenn continues the Legends and Misfits series with an exploration of the book of Ruth. Ruth is a story about loyalty. It's ultimately about how God remains loyal to us even when we feel like He has turned His back on us. But it is also about how, through our loyalty to others, we can let people know that God has not walked out on them.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Feb 12, 2012

Pastor Glenn Packiam continues the "Legends and Misfits" series with an exploration of the key moments in Joshua's and Caleb's stories.

But we find the world to be "enemy-occupied" territory. How do we follow Christ, bringing his reign to every area and sphere of our lives? Joshua and Caleb have something to tell us about that.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Jan 22, 2012

Is it possible to serve God in the midst of a wicked or "worldly" environment? The story of Joseph says, "Yes."

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam

This is where our "family story" begins, with Abraham. If Genesis 1-2 is the story of God forming the world, and Genesis 3-11 is the story of the world coming apart, then Genesis 12 is the beginning of God working within his world to rescue and redeem it. Abraham's story culminates in Jesus and opens the way for us to join it now.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Dec 18, 2011

Pastor Glenn concludes our series in Luke with a talk from Luke 24 and the ?present tense? sense of Advent. Because Jesus came, we can know with confidence that God comes to us each day. Sometimes God?s presence with us is stunning? as it was with the angels at the empty tomb; sometimes it is hidden? like Jesus with the disciples on the road to Emmaus. Yet at all times, we can learn to be attentive to Christ?s presence with us by the Spirit.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Dec 11, 2011

In Luke's Gospel, an ANGEL is the first to ANNOUNCE Jesus as a King whose Kingdom has no end but a CRIMINAL is the first to CONFESS Jesus as a King whose Kingdom has no end. Because Jesus has gone to the lowest of the low, we are never too low and we are never too late to call on Jesus.

Speaker:	Glenn Packiam
Date:	Nov 20, 2011

Date:	Nov 13, 2011

Date:	Nov 6, 2011

Pastor Glenn continues the Luke series with a talk from Luke 19 on Jesus coming into Jerusalem. What does it mean to weep over a city, and pray for it's "comprehensive flourishing"? What does it mean to welcome Jesus the King into our own broken lives and allow Him to make us whole again?
