Why do you need faith in the first place?

In this message from A Skeptic’s Guide to Belief, Pastor Justin Jenkins teaches from 1 Peter 3:15–16. Science and progress have changed how we live, but questions about meaning, human worth, and eternity remain. Whether you’re skeptical of Christianity or have believed for years, explore why faith still makes sense and why our deepest longings may point to more than this world can offer.

Have we really outgrown our need for God?

This message will help you:
• Bring your real questions into the room with God
• Get clearer on what your hope is resting on
• Answer curiosity about your faith

What if God already changed your position, but your perspective is still stuck on earth?

In this message Pastor Justin Jenkins teaches from Colossians 3:1-4. Paul starts with what Jesus has already done: He has given us a new position in raising us with Christ. That position should give us a new perspective. But sometimes we still have trouble seeing God's truth.

This message will help you:
• Look back at God's faithfulness without treating the past like a finish line
• Let your perspective catch up to your position in Christ
• Measure today by forever, not only by what you can see

Scripture:
Colossians 3:1-4

Knowing time is short shouldn’t make you frantic. It should make you faithful.

It’s easy to spend your life putting off what matters most. We assume there will be another opportunity, a better season, or more time. But seeing today in light of eternity changes what deserves our attention and what we can’t afford to keep postponing.

This message will help you:
• Stop handing God’s assignments to an imaginary future you
• Tell what feels huge today from what will matter forever
• Live today in light of eternity, not in panic

Scripture:
1 John 2:17 – The world passes away, but those who do God’s will live forever
James 4:13-15 – Life is a mist; tomorrow belongs to God
2 Corinthians 4:18 – Fix your eyes on what is unseen and eternal
