When Jesus is not Living Up to Your Expectations

Today we welcome Daniel and Sarah Patino, from Seek Christian Community, a campus ministry at Virginia Tech.

Whenever we prepare for a trip, there are a few important things we never leave home without. They may not seem important until something goes wrong, but when the unexpected happens, those essentials become invaluable. As Joshua prepared Israel for a new journey, God reminded him of the spiritual essentials every believer needs. Join Pastor Greg as he shares from the scriptures some of the things we should never leave behind as we travel through life.

 Join Pastor George Fletcher as he shares how God is our comforter and how we can comfort others.

In a world where it's easy to compare ourselves with others, Jesus challenges us to see ourselves honestly before God. Join Pastor Greg as he shares Jesus' stories of a Pharisee, a tax collector, and little children, we discover that God's kingdom belongs not to those who trust in themselves, but to those who come to him with humble, dependent faith.

Waiting is one of the hardest parts of the Christian life--waiting for justice, waiting for healing, waiting for answers. After giving His disciples some sobering news about the future, Jesus tells them how to live in the meantime. Join Pastor Greg as he shares what Jesus says are the hallmarks of faithful people while they wait.

Most of us have wondered at some point, "Is this the end?" We scan the headlines, watch world events unfold, and look for signs of God's Kingdom, much like the religious leaders questioned Jesus. But in Luke 17, Jesus redirects our attention from predicting the future to recognizing a present reality. Join Pastor Greg as he shares how Jesus taught us that God's Kingdom is already among us, inviting us to live under the reign of the King today.
