What if the ordinary choices you make today are helping shape God’s new creation? In the final installment of *No Other Gospel*, we discover how the Holy Spirit teaches us to correct with kindness and plant with persistence. Even when the results remain unseen, every act of grace, faithfulness, and love is a seed—and God promises that the harvest is coming.

“I am what I am”—but is that all we can ever be? Continuing our series No Other Gospel, we discover that grace does not require us to change before God loves us, but God’s love never leaves us unchanged. Through the Holy Spirit, we receive the power to crucify what is destroying us, grow the fruit of Christlike character, and truly live as the people God created us to become.

What does it truly mean to be free? Returning to our series No Other Gospel, we discover that Jesus offers both freedom from everything that holds us captive and freedom for a life of loving service. Christ did not set us free merely to pursue whatever we want; he set us free to become who we were created to be. The more faithfully we love and serve our neighbors, the more deeply we experience the freedom only Jesus can give.

What if Jesus is closer than we realize—hidden in the faces of people who are hungry, displaced, sick, imprisoned, or simply longing to be welcomed? In this special standalone message for our service weekend, Rev. Keith Draper of World Relief Chicagoland explores Jesus’ parable of the sheep and the goats. Discover why genuine faith moves beyond words, how serving vulnerable neighbors becomes an encounter with Christ himself, and where you might find “Jesus in disguise” in your own community.

Do you ever feel as though you have to prove that you are good enough—or that you truly belong? Continuing our series No Other Gospel, we discover why rules can guide us but can never make us part of God’s family. Through faith in Christ, we are adopted as beloved children, welcomed to the family table, and given an inheritance no achievement could earn. You have nothing left to prove—so you are free to live by the law of love.

What do you really believe—not only with your mind and heart, but with the way you live? Continuing our series No Other Gospel, we examine the things we trust to give us worth, security, and control—and why none of these “functional saviors” can take the place of Jesus. Discover how faith in Christ crucified gives us a new identity, a new community, and the transforming power of the Holy Spirit.

What if the gospel is not simply meant to improve your life, but to transform it completely? Continuing our series *No Other Gospel*, we explore Paul’s declaration, “I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.” Discover what it means to die to the parts of ourselves that hold us back—and to find new life as the love and light of Christ shine through us.

You have a story to tell—and your story matters. Continuing our series No Other Gospel, we turn to Paul’s remarkable testimony and discover that his journey is also, in many ways, the story of every Christian. We are claimed by God, called through grace, confirmed in God’s plan, and commissioned to serve. Where does your story fit within the greater story God is writing?

Is Jesus enough—or do we keep trying to add something to the gospel? We begin our new series, No Other Gospel, with Paul’s passionate opening to Galatians and a warning rooted in love: adding to the good news can change it into something else entirely. Discover why Christ’s saving work needs no improvement—and why holding fast to that truth still matters today.

The Bible can offer wisdom, understanding, and light for the path ahead—but it was never meant merely to sit unopened on a shelf or be studied as a collection of interesting ideas. In the final message of our Better Together series, we explore why reading Scripture is central to the Christian faith, how we can learn to listen for God’s voice through its pages, and why the Bible becomes especially powerful when we read and apply it together. Because Scripture doesn’t simply teach us about Jesus—it draws us toward him, until the living Word finds us, speaks to us, and takes hold of our lives.
Psalm 119, John 14:26
Rev. Becca Bruner & Debbie Sanders
