The Yoke's on Me

Matthew 11:28-30

When Jesus offered a warm invitation for people to come to him, he offered rest for all who are weary. But then he started talking about taking on a yoke. Finding rest and carrying a yoke don't seem to go together. Do they?

Why Jesus?

Hebrews 1:1-4

Why Jesus? Because there’s got to be a better way to understand the meaning of this life and how to live it.

Why?

Five Key Questions

With this series, we’re taking on five key questions that people often ask: “Why faith?” “Why Jesus?” “Why the Bible?” “Why Church?” and “Why the Cross?” We’re doing this because when it comes to faith, questions are important. Questioning is how we wrestle with truth, how we understand, how we figure out what we believe. A faith that has no place for questions is weak and afraid, and that’s not what we’re after. Further, the answers to these questions touch on issues that are foundational to our faith, things we’d like to be sure we fully understand as believers, and things we’d like to be able to better explain to those who may ask us these questions.

Why Faith?

I John 1:1-4

Road Trip

Cheering for the Home Team - Together in Christ

Colossians 4:7-18

Gist: With this final passage, Paul lifts up members of his team and basically cheers for them. As we learn from this passage, we will lift up and cheer for our team at Orchard!

Christ Over All

The Book of Colossians

We live in a fast-paced, complex world filled with exciting new ideas and possibilities. Yet this is also in a time of turmoil and change that can make us feel uneasy. In the midst of these things, our world is constantly pushing human ideas and philosophies about who we are, what this life is about, and how we should live. With the book of Colossians, the Apostle Paul declares that Jesus is supreme over all things, and that in Him we have everything we need. So, whatever our challenges and concerns may be, if we keep our focus on the one who is “over all,” everything else will take care of itself.
