This week we continue to look at what it means to practice the ways of out master, Jesus. We dig into his statement found in John 10:10 about offering life to the fullest and ask questions around what it means to experience that life. What we discover is that we will never truly experience the life Jesus offers unless we embrace the lifestyle Jesus modeled. Well how do we do that? It all begins with remaining in him.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week we begin a new series where we look at what it means to practice the way of Jesus. As followers of Jesus, what does it mean to orient our life around His ways of living and begin to put them into practice as our ways of living? It all begins with not just hearing the word of God, but applying it… or in other words, putting it into practice. Follow along as we study Jesus’ parable of the four soils and his teaching on what growth and fruit look like.Speaker: Matt Densky

One of our very own students, Ella Grace Williams, shares her story and helps us see how the theme of perfectionism leads us to believe that we always have to do more, be more, prove more. But the grace of Jesus frees us from that mentality and reminds us that Jesus has already accomplished perfect and shared that status with us permanently.Speaker: Ella Grace Williams

This week is a stand alone message taught by one of our former students, JJ Bunney. We navigate the topic of patience and JJ helps us see that waiting has been a theme for God’s people throughout the entire Bible and that it is in the waiting that God prepares us for that which we are waiting for.Speaker: JJ Bunney

This week is a stand alone message focusing on anxiety. We look at a passage in Matthew 14 and we observe Jesus as a non anxious person in circumstances that would make most of us feel overwhelmed. How did Jesus maintain this sense of calm? By observing the ways of Jesus we extract 5 principles from this passage that can help us live more non anxious lives.  Speaker: Matt Densky

This week we conclude our Heaven and Earth series with a live Q&A. Jim Thompson, a pastor here at Fellowship Greenville, will be engaging in questions being asked about Heaven, Earth, Hell and anything in-between. This will summarize everything we’ve talked about in the series so far as well as explore topics we have not had time to navigate yet.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week we conclude our series by looking at the end of the Biblical narrative. We see Jesus making a new Heaven and New Earth and the future forever with God which will be what He has always designed life to be – a harmonious friendship with Him unspoiled by the presence of evil. The imagery and language of Revelation takes us all the way back to where we began in the garden of Eden. However, the Kingdom of God is not something that we passively wait for, it is something that we actively contribute towards. Give this message a listen to understand more!Speaker: Matt Densky

This week we take a deep dive into the Biblical theme of Temple – the place where people meet the presence of God. Beginning in the very first few pages of Genesis we see that God has made his presence available to His people though the means of a temple, but please don’t mistake that as simply a physical building somewhere. Take a listen to this episode and see how the location and structure of temple evolved over time and what it looks like today for people to meet the presence of God.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week Matt explores further the story of how evil and corruption continued to spread and climaxed in Genesis 11 in the story of the Tower of Babel, but also how God gives us a solution to this in Acts 2. We will learn what God’s plan for evil is, how we are invited in to be a part of the healing process, and how we to contribute to the creation of good of this world by sharing the hope of Jesus.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week was United Night where middle and high school students come together 4 times a year for a night of worship. Dallas Greenaway taught from Psalm 46 and helped answer the question, “What do you do when you don’t know what to do?”Speaker: Dallas Greenaway

Have you ever looked at the earth and come to the conclusion that something is broken? This week we examine the origins of evil by looking at the rebellion against God, both in the Heavenly realm and the earthly. We come to understand that the serpent had a very specific strategy of temptation for Adam and Eve that he is still using today and we also see how Jesus began to heal the chaos created through the rebellion.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, Matt talks about trusting God and feeling God. We look at verses in Genesis 1-2 and Psalm 113, looking at how God creates order from chaos, defines good and evil, and created us and loves us. Matt talks about how the God who is far above us has made his home among us so that we can rule and rest with Him forever.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, Matt opened up our new series, Heaven and Earth Collide, and gives an overview of misconceptions about Heaven, Hell, and how God creates Heaven on Earth. We look at Mark 1, Genesis 1-3 and Revelation 21 to dig deeper into these concepts. Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, JJ Bunney talks about how we have infinite desires and how no other desire can fill us like Jesus can. We look at Galatians 5:16-24 and how to walk by the Spirit, instead of walking in fleshly desires. JJ talks about how eternal desire will never settle for temporary relief, and how we have to be filled with Him to be able to pour into other people.Speaker: JJ Bunney

This week, Matt Densky talks with one of our seniors, Emma Mitchell, about her story and how God has been growing her and teaching her in the past few years. Emma talks about putting identity in what others think about her, and talks about wrestling with an eating disorder. Matt and Emma talk about freedom from shame, comparison, and what it looks like to ask for help.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, Matt Densky talks about Hebrews and the truth that Jesus is better than all else. Matt interviews our 3 FGS interns, asking them how they came to know Jesus and how they’ve found Jesus to be better than all other things.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, Matt Densky talks about faith, looking at Luke 7:1-10 and the centurion’s faith in Jesus’ healing. Matt talks about how many times God operates not on His ability, but by our faith. Our idea of Jesus can limit how He works in our lives, and Matt digs deeper into what that looks like.Speaker: Matt Densky

This week, Dallas Greenaway talks about “Rethinking Your Past” at United Night, and about how we are shaped by our past. We look at Moses’ story in Exodus 2 and 3 and how God loves to take people’s stories that seem unredeemable and use them to bring Him glory.Speaker: Dallas Greenaway

This week, Hannah Thom talks about “Rethinking Worship,” and how we worship personally and together as the Church body. She talks about how the posture of our hearts reflect how we worship corporately as the Body of Christ. We look at Romans 15:1-6 and how living in harmony and unity with one another affects our worship.Speaker: Hannah Thom

This week, Matt Densky teaches on the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:25-37. Matt talks about how busyness and status are often times the killers of compassion in our hearts.
