Breaking the Golden Calf: Overcoming Modern Idolatry
Pastor Jason Forbush
Pastor Jason Forbush
It’s at the heart of every personal struggle. It’s the root of every sin. Dig deep enough into any of the natural and spiritual battles we’re fighting, and you’ll find its influence. It’s the unseen catalyst behind dark and difficult confessions like:
All these issues (and many more) are only symptoms of a much deeper problem. And we will only have lasting victory when we confront and uproot the source. The gods of pleasure, power, fame, materialism and self are calling to us. They are battling for our hearts every moment of every day. During this four week class, we’ll see them for what they are and learn how to break free of their destructive hold on our lives.
- “I work too much.”
- “Money is always on my mind.”
- “I tend to eat more than I should.”
- “I struggle with purity.”
- “I'm on social media too often.”
- “I worry a lot.”
- “I’m codependent.”
- "I don't feel satisfied."

The Power of Wisdom
Bishop & Sis. Forbush
Bishop & Sis. Forbush
The Bible is emphatic about the essentiality of wisdom.
The Scriptures tell us that the wise:
Promotion, protection, and prosperity are just a few of the benefits that come as a result of a life characterized by wisdom. It’s a given that as we become wiser, we’ll make better decisions and have fewer regrets. But where do we find it?
There are endless books, podcasts and articles that promise us greater degrees of this sought-after attribute. Motivational speakers, TED talk experts, professors and philosophers all claim to have a monopoly on it, but true wisdom stems from only one place: “...true wisdom and power are found in God.” (Job 12:13, NLT)
Join us on Wednesday nights in the month of August as we grow in wisdom through an in depth Biblical study of this incredible topic!
- Above all and before all, do this: Get Wisdom! Write this at the top of your list: Get Understanding! (Prov 25:28 MSG)
- Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. (Prov 3:15 NLT)
- …wisdom can save your life. (Eccles 7:12, NLT)
The Scriptures tell us that the wise:
- … will be a success. (Prov 19:8)
- …add years to their lives. (Prov 9:11)
- …are kept safe from evil people. (Prov 2:12)
- …are mightier than the strong. (Prov 24:5)
- …choose the right road. (Ecclesiastes 10:2)

Self Sabotage Control
Andy Tarantino

Thousands of years before cartoonist Walt Kelly famously wrote, “We have met the enemy, and he is us,” the Apostle Paul expressed similar frustration when he said, “I don’t really understand myself, for I want to do what is right, but I don’t do it…” (Romans 7:15, NLT)
99% of us read both statements and immediately think, “Yep, that’s me.”
Most of the time, the greatest obstacle we face as we try to achieve our goals, maximize our potential, or follow through on our resolutions to become better spouses, parents, employees, friends, Christians, you-name-it… is ourselves.
We are experts at getting in our own way as we try to get more fit, more spiritual, more debt free, more organized, more faith or family focused, etc. Far too often, our intentions get overridden by our impulsivity.
Rather than more talent, intelligence or creativity… what a lot of us need in order to achieve the specific life changes we want to see is more self control.
The Bible has so much to offer in the way of insights and encouragement in our quest to master the instincts and emotions that tend to lead us in the wrong direction. During our 4 weeks together, we’ll explore what Scripture and brain science have to say about why self control matters and how to gain more of it!

Winning the Battle of the Mind
Marlon & Sophia Dalrymple
Marlon & Sophia Dalrymple
In this elective we will explore how the mind is a battleground! We will explore the believer’s authority to cast down imaginations and bring transparency to how the enemy uses false perceptions to manipulate and deceive us. We’ll outline specific battle plans to defend our gates, and dive deeply into the power of declarations. These classes are intended to be interactive sessions where we can both learn and share tactics used by experienced believers to win the battle of the mind.
Join us on Wednesdays in August as we study the following topics each week:

Unreserved: Purpose through Consecration
David Rouch
David Rouch
God has a purpose for your life that can only be found in total surrender. The Gospel doesn't cost anything, but it demands everything. It demands that we go all in, putting all that we have into God's hands. But why do so many of us hesitate to do that? Are we afraid that if we go all in that we might miss out on what life has to offer?
We are not called to safe places to do easy things. It’s time to quit living as if the purpose of life is to arrive safely at death. It’s time to go all in for God. You’re just one decision away from a totally different life. So, what’s holding you back?
