Something Old, Something New

Ever wonder if your faith is real or just wishful thinking? John the apostle—the last man standing who physically walked with Jesus—has something to say about that. In week one of Touch Grass, Pastor Levi takes us to 1 John 1:1-10 and helps us see why "if it's new, it's not true; if it's true, it's not new" when it comes to theology. We'll dig into five life-changing truths from this opening passage. John doesn't just want you to believe—he wants you to know you have eternal life. Time to get grounded in truth that can't be shaken!NEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon’t miss a video!

The Two Sons

In one of the most familiar stories Jesus ever told, the prodigal son in Luke 15, we often miss that both sons were lost—one ran away, the other stayed close but let pride keep him distant. In this powerful message from Annie F. Downs, we’re reminded that no matter how far you’ve gone, you’re never too far to come home. Whether you’ve made a series of small compromises that led to a place you never meant to be, or you’re sitting in judgment with crossed arms and a closed heart, the Father is on the porch—looking, waiting, running toward you. There’s no better place to be than close to the Father.

Side Characters

Feeling overlooked, unqualified, or unsure of what God's calling you to? Looking at the story of Saul and Ananias (a man mentioned in only a few verses who changed the course of history by his obedience) in Acts 9, Tim Ross shows us three life-altering truths: God sees what people skip, obedience doesn't require agreement, and you're not the star (and that's actually a relief!). Learn why embracing "side character energy" frees you to be powerfully used by God without the pressure of being the main character.NEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon’t miss a video!

Faith When Life Is Murky

If you have ever struggled to know what God's will is, or wondered how to make a decision when following Him feels confusing, or if God has put it on your heart to do something but you can't figure out why He is calling you to it... You are going to love what you find in God's word today! Pastor Levi Lusko examines The Chosen's powerful portrayal of the Triumphal Entry, revealing how to have faith when life is murky and God's plans don't make sense. From The Chosen Season 5, Episode 1 "Entry" - witness Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey while 2.7 million people filled the city for Passover. The disciples participated in this royal parade without having a clue what was happening, yet they obeyed anyway. Scripture Focus: John 12:12-16 & Matthew 21:1-3 Discover why Jesus sent two disciples to "borrow" a donkey with only the explanation "The Lord has need of them." Like the disciples, your job is not to understand God but to obey Him. Trust your Master, not your master plan. 5 Things to Remember When Life Is Murky:Muscle ConfusionUnorthodox MethodsReadinessKingdomYou'll Know More Later Big Idea: Choose compliance over clarity.

In this message, The Rhythms of a Healthy Soul, Pastor Levi Lusko examines The Chosen's powerful portrayal of Martha and Mary, revealing the essential rhythms of a healthy soul and why sitting at Jesus' feet isn't selfish - it's necessary. From The Chosen Season 4, Episode 5 "Sitting, Serving, Scheming" - witness the tension between Martha's elaborate dinner preparations and Mary's choice to sit at Jesus' feet as His disciple. This isn't about correcting hospitality, but about choosing the best thing over good things. Scripture Focus: Luke 10:38-42 Discover why Jesus defended Mary's choice and gently corrected Martha's distraction. Set just six months before the cross, this scene in Bethany reveals what we all need: to learn the unforced rhythms of grace and find rest for our souls. 4 Lessons for a Healthy Soul:Good things can keep you from the best things.When you focus on others, you leave yourself unattended.Work without worship is wearying.When you lose your why, you lose your way. Jesus' invitation: "Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace."

The Miracle You Never Saw Coming

Think of an answer to prayer you never received, a time when you trusted God to do something and He didn't. A situation where you were disappointed by God. What are we to make of these instances where we had faith the size of a mustard seed to see a mountain move but it didn't budge? In This Message, The Miracle You Never Saw Coming, Pastor Levi Lusko examines The Chosen's powerful portrayal of "Little James" being called to heal others while living with his own disability, revealing how God's power can flow through us even when we still limp. From The Chosen Season 3, Episode 2 "Two by Two" - witness the tension of being commissioned to participate in healing you yourself have never experienced. This conversation between Jesus and Little James isn't directly in the Bible, but it's thoroughly biblical from Genesis to Revelation: power out of pain and strength out of weakness. Scripture Focus: 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 & Luke 6:15 Discover what it means to have the power of God on your life but still limp through with the pains, heartaches, and difficulties of life. Like Paul's thorn in the flesh, sometimes God chooses to work through us but not for us. Could God be glorified by a trial He chooses to allow to remain? 3 Things You Must Know to Survive Saturday (the space between Good Friday and Easter):Pain Is a ProblemPain Has a ProblemPain Is Not Your Problem The miracle you never saw coming?

The Protection of Purpose

What happens when we step out of the purpose God has prepared for us? In this message, we dive into the narrative of King David in 2 Samuel 11:1—a time when kings were meant to go to battle, but David stayed home, omitting himself from the work God had for him. This critical choice led to disastrous consequences, both for David and for those around him. We’ll uncover three ways purpose protects us from complacency, sin, and missed opportunities while showing how stepping into God’s plan brings joy, challenge, and growth. Learn how God can redeem even the most broken moments and lead us into a life of impact and fulfillment.

The Weaker, The Better

Explore the profound truth that God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 12:7-10, Pastor Jennie shows us how Paul embraced his "thorn in the flesh" as a gift that kept him humble and dependent on God.
