Series: You Can Change! (Summer 2016)
Our 10-week series “You Can Change” is based on Tim Chester’s book by the same title. Real, lasting, fundamental heart change is entirely possible — but it’s not achievable by pull-yourself-up-by-the-bootstraps, grin-and-bear-it types of methods. Heart transformation only becomes possible as we behold Jesus.

Sow to Faith

Turn to Truth
by John Vanderhorst | July 31, 2016To grow more like Jesus in specific ways, we must identify truths that will break our patterns of wrong thinking and behavior.
The Heart of Your Struggle
by Blaine Freidline | July 24, 2016It is not your circumstances at the root of your deficient behavior and attitudes — it is your own heart! Understand your heart desires, own them, trust that the sinless Jesus took them as HIS own in His death on the cross, and look to Him to change your heart.
How are You Going to Change?
by Johnny Vanderhorst | July 17, 2016We grow and change by the same means we come to Christ in the first place.
Why Change?
by John Vanderhorst | July 10, 2016We should want to change because God, having rescued us and won our hearts, calls us and empowers us to become like Jesus.
Glorious Image
