We like to claim that Jesus’ resurrection changed the world. But how? How does it matter that Jesus was raised from the dead not on Sunday, when we worship, but on Monday, when we dive back into our ordinary lives? In this series, we explore the “I Am” statements Jesus makes in John’s Gospel to see how the new life Jesus offers us is as immediate and relevant as ever, right where we live, work and play.
How does Jesus change not just our Sundays, but our Mondays?

The God of Technology
How often do we turn mindlessly to our technology - our faces buried in a smart-phone screen, the TV on during dinner, monopolizing our conversation. If we're not careful, technology can become a god, disconnecting us from each other, subtly teaching us that we don't need anyone else - not even God - to be whole and healthy. The first warning about the dangers of technology come at the beginning of the Bible. Let's look together at how we can make sure technology continues to be a tool and not a tyrant in our lives.
From Series: "American Gods"
When you think of idol, you think of a little statue. But idols can be anything that distracts or distances us from God. During Lent, we're going to look at some of the most popular idols in our culture. We'll see what they are, and how they pull us away from God. We'll also discover the better way God calls us to. Join us as we discover the identities of these American gods, and turn from them to follow the one and only true God.
