Revelation: Part 1 | Apocalyptic Stories
Easily the most misunderstood book of the Bible, Revelation is not really about dragons and rapture - it is about following Jesus in the midst of empire. Join us as Zach W. Lambert finishes out our last four weeks of A Year of Bible Stories for Grown-Ups with this series on Revelation starting today!

Radical Inclusion with Sally Gary | Theology Stories
Have you ever felt excluded because of who you are or what you’ve been through? Do you know anyone who has? Join us this Sunday as Sally Gary preaches about how Jesus radically includes outcasts by seeing them for who they are (an image-bearer of God) and welcoming them into God’s family.

Thinking Biblically About Government with Dr. David Gushee | Theology Stories

“Women should dress modestly…” | Theology Stories
Modesty is an important virtue discussed throughout Scripture, but what does it actually mean? Is it about bikinis and yoga pants, or something else? And how do we engage with the harm caused by Purity Culture without pendulum swinging too far in a different direction? Join us as Zach W. Lambert preaches about this verse and what modesty really means.

"A different Gospel..." | Theology Stories | Easter 2024
Some folks claim “God’s grace is getting out of hand” because of how much we talk about God’s unrelenting love for us. But God’s grace isn’t getting out of hand, it’s been out of hand for 2000 years! Join us this Easter Sunday as Zach W. Lambert preaches about God’s extravagant grace and love.

Christianity is about humanity
What Christianity should be. Humanity-based. We have to remember, and remind each other, that Christianity is a man-made religion, and man has done many evil acts in the name of God. Man has condemned others, man has oppressed, and man has caused all of the trauma in this world, often in the name of religion. We have to step away from that, and focus our efforts on humanity, justice, an equality, which is exactly what Jesus taught. Christianity around the world has been brainwashed into thinking that all of these forms of oppression and crimes against humanity are normal. The Bible has been misinterpreted, and straight up lied about for decades. God is not pleased. I hope everyone finds the true light, finds Jesus not just by praying, not by just listening to sermons, but by caring for and fighting for humanity. That is what we are all put on earth to do. We are constantly in a battle against evil in this world. And the evil exists in many of those who call themselves Christians. We have to change that.
Heresy
Mark and avoid this pastor and this church.
Christ-centered, loving, and restorative messages!
Restore really is a place where everyone has a seat at God’s table. They not only say that, they live it. The messages on Sundays are life-giving and incredibly powerful. Listen along every week to have your life (or at least your mind) transformed.
