Reach Church

Would you expect suffering to bring about more boldness and a confidence in Jesus? Paul writes about a faith that grows even as he struggles with living out some of Jesus’ most difficult truths.

In Paul's prayer for the believers in Philippi we find our purpose as a church: To love Jesus, by knowing Jesus, and be changed by Jesus, for the glory of Jesus.

God specializes in shining light into darkness and conquering death with abundant life. If he really has risen, there is always hope. Always.

Before we can see the cross as something done for us, we must see it as something done by us. As we acknowledge the depth of our sin, we experience the fullness of His love.

Jesus sends his followers to go into the world to be his ambassadors of hope and reconciliation. God gets glory, the world gets healing, and we get joy.

Following Jesus isn’t just your ticket to Heaven and means to true change. Knowing him and being known by him is the most satisfying thing in the universe, because his steadfast love is better than life itself.

Can people really change? Your answer to that question has more implications than you think. The very good news is that Jesus brings change into our lives — so we should know how He does it, and how to be all-in with the process.

What if Jesus is more committed to you than you are to him? If he really is a good shepherd who never loses sheep, you can rest in his love for you — regardless of the darkness you're walking through.

Jesus came to seek and save the lost — everyday people who need an answer for the brokenness around them and a hope for redemption.

Brian and Josh kick off "Reach, Season 2" by sharing what's changing, what's staying the same, and how we will go deeper and wider in the years to come.

As we finish the Lord’s Prayer, we are reminded that God will give us everything we need for a life of purpose, and protect us as we step out to be a part of what He’s doing in the world.

The Lord's prayer might be the most frequently spoken collection of words in the history of human language. But rarely do we pause to reflect on them and the power they hold. Perhaps we should try just that...

In our final dive into the book of Acts, we see the sovereignty of God, the faithfulness of Paul, the power of the Holy Spirit, and the continual spread of the Gospel…all the way to Rome. The big question: what do we do now? The big answer: go deeper, spread wider.

Paul’s final instructions to church leaders and friends he’ll never see again are a simple and potent blueprint for us to reflect on living the life of a disciple of Jesus.

When Paul finally makes it to Ephesus, God has prepared everything for transformation to sweep across the province. Sometimes what seems like God’s “no” is actually him saying “Yes, but not yet."

In Corinth, Paul makes new friends, makes new disciples, and receives an encouraging vision from Jesus himself. What does it all mean for us? We don't have to be afraid...because God is with us.

While in Athens, which is similar to Seattle in many ways, Paul shows us what it looks like to engage, serve, and love a city engulfed in idolatry.

The Incarnation is the foremost of God's many declarations that he is committed to us experiencing the power, intimacy, and healing of his presence.

The Incarnation is a model for mission, showing us that Jesus came for those who don't have it all together.

The idea that God would become man is crazy and scandalous, but also true and foundational to the entirety of our faith.
