Deeper

Broken relationships can result in broken insides too. Can the same be true for someone’s relationship with God? If there was something to do to sustain it when circumstances are bad and the positive feelings are gone, what could we do? Psalm 130 may just hold the answer.

Real change flows out of a relationship with God marked by love. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

Did Jesus overturn tables and drive out merchants because he was angry about people selling in the temple courts?

What does it look like to worship God with our whole being? How can we confront empty-religiosity and hypocrisy? *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

Private Lives

Sinkholes occur when underground streams drain away during seasons of drought, causing the ground at the surface to lose its underlying support.  Suddenly everything simply caves in. THIS week we’d like to turn our attention to the COMPETING DEMANDS of public and private life.  Because the sinkhole syndrome warns us that if we don’t get this RHYTHM right, the lives and homes and careers and ministries we’re building are in danger of collapse.   *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner…

Life is Hard

A centered heart is grateful, even when life is hard. Gratitude shapes our perspective and gives structure to our lives.

Stuck in the Muck

If prayer is a space that God has given us to enjoy him and find purpose to life, what happens when prayer doesn’t work? Is it possible that we who struggle with prayer might find a happiness in God that would bring life to our inner selves and to those around us? Is there something God wants us to know about ourselves that could free us from the mundane, strengthen our souls in the face of difficulties and bring gladness…

A Tale of Two Kings

The world has changed, and we have new questions about things like work, childcare, friendship, and our own wellbeing. How can ancient truths and habits help us center ourselves in a world that often feels off-balance? The first step towards health and a heart centered on Jesus is honesty. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.

The Way of Worship

This last year, we’ve all been forced to deconstruct our schedules. And now that we’re putting them back together, what role should church have? Do we need to set aside a day to take in a service, in person or online? And what about Sundays? Should they be any different from Saturdays? Pastor Bryan will examine those questions through a lens of worship this week. *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the…

Blessed the Best

When God doesn’t answer prayers in the way we expect, he can still take our disappointments and make them into something new. But what about those times when the unanswered prayer doesn’t appear to have any long-term gain at all? Is it possible that if we had prayed differently God could have turned an unanswered prayer into a better opportunity? 

The Promises, Practices and People of God

We are all made for relational connection, but are feeling more lonely and disconnected than ever. How does God help us build meaningful relationships with each other, even in the midst of a pandemic? How can the promises, practices, and people of God help to bring about lasting change in our lives? *Christ’s Church is a strategic partner of Grace Chapel in Lexington, MA and features the teaching of Pastor Bryan Wilkerson and the Grace Chapel Teaching Team.
