It's the finale in our series, SPEAKING OF HEALTH, and as always, we like to end with a bang! We not only talked about our need for authentic and vulnerable relationships, but we had a live example of what that authenticity and vulnerability looks like.
Be sure not to miss the special cameo appearance from a special guest at the end of this week's message.
And stay healthy everyone!
Read MoreWe're in Part 3 of our series SPEAKING OF HEALTH and this week, we're looking at the "Hardware of the Soul." In other words, we're looking at our brains and trying to learn how they work and what role different parts play.
Why? Because the more we understand how our brains work, the better we'll be able to a) diagnose a problem when it happens, and b) invest in the health of the various parts/functions of the brain.
So get ready to learn! Class is in now session :)

That's a summary of this week's message in a nutshell. Too many of us are living as if we are slaves to our thoughts, but in this week's message we saw how we can change our LIVES by changing our THOUGHTS. Specifically, we learned that our thoughts are real things that literally have the power to rewire our brains.
In this week's message, we not only learned the power of our thoughts over our lives, but also a practical way that we can implement God's command to “[bring] every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5)

We kicked off a new series this week called SPEAKING OF HEALTH... And in it, we're talking about the importance of health in ALL aspects of life: body, mind/soul, and spirit.
This series has the power to open a lot of eyes about the root of many of the problems and struggles we face today. Maybe it's not just a spiritual problem after all. Maybe there's something more to it...
Check out the video above and you’ll see what I mean.

The news of the passing of Robin Williams took the world by surprise. How is it possible for one of the most iconic and brilliant comedians of our childhood to commit suicide? How could someone who brought us so much JOY, have so much hidden PAIN? When the explanation is "he had depression," we sometimes can't help but trivialize it by pointing out irrelevant things like..."But he had it all!", "He was so funny!" or "He was so involved in charity!"
There are realities that the death of Robin Williams will hopefully force us to face.
