The Persecuted

When we embrace the way of Jesus—embodying His beatitudes and working them out in our lives—we should expect persecution. "Beatitude people" run counter to the world's wa

The Peacemakers

When conflict arises, we either shrink deep into our shells or lash out quills first. We then mistake any temporary cessation of hostility as peace. But true peace only a

The Pure in Heart

Culturally and spiritually, as a means to adapt and survive, we harden our external selves and hide away the intimate and unsightly parts of our lives. But Christ loves u

The Merciful

As those who have received an inconceivable mercy, we seek to mirror Christ in the pouring out of mercy to others. We move towards others’ brokenness, pain, and debt, mak

Those Who Hunger

Admiring a menu does not satisfy our hunger. While spiritual interest tends to remain theoretical, spiritual hunger draws us toward Jesus in actual dependence. As those h

The Humble

We often associate “meekness” with “weakness.” But Christ is the picture of the Beatitudes and the image of the invisible God. Christ described Himself as “gentle and low

Those Who Mourn

We tend to treat our sorrow as something to be silenced and others’ grief as a threat to our comfort. If we numb ourselves from the pain of life, we have not saved oursel

The Poor in Spirit

The Christian life is not us moving up and to the right, but rather a series of peaks and valleys, ever progressing us forward on the long journey home to God. The first

Bless the Lord

At the pace we run, it is easy to pass by and forget all that our God is doing around the world and right here in Flower Mound, Texas. We bless God for the forgiveness of

This is the Gospel

The gospel, with all its good news, revelations, and illumination, is not simply the door we walk through—it is the whole house. For the believer, it is where we spend th

Discipline

We must not be like those who have received the gospel but don't want to be inconvenienced with suffering or costly discipleship—resistant to obedience. We embrace discip

Deeper Still

We often look to others and their giftings and compare them to the ways God has wired us. We question our purpose and wonder if this is all there is. But the body can onl

Made Alive

Jesus makes the invisible God visible. He ranks above all creation, and no one is like Him. All things have been created through Christ and for Christ. He sustains us and

Grow & Gather

While the world offers disintegration, Jesus Christ provides soul-level integration. So we look to Him, and we labor to see Him rightly. We behold Christ in His glory, se

Discipleship

We belong to a vast, intricate web of discipleship. Today, we walk in faith because other believers were faithful in their day to disciple others. So we too press on, gro

"Make Disciples" Weekend Service

The kingdom of God does not advance through programs, but people. The priority and the focus of the Church today is to make disciples of Jesus. There is a litany of good

"Love People" Weekend Service

The body without water cannot perform. It cannot take the spontaneous extra mile. It cannot care for others. It turns inward. Likewise, our spiritual bodies cannot serve

"Love God" Weekend Service

God created the world and everything in it, and on the seventh day He rested. In the law given to Moses, God set aside the seventh day as holy, a day for His people not t

Grace

Creature to the Creator, the only thing we contribute is our need. We cannot earn the love of God. His grace is the unmerited favor we receive in Christ Jesus. It is the
