EXILE NO MORE | Week 4
The final installment in this series on the life of Daniel describes his intention in a pagan culture to provide grace. In the message, we will discover the importance and power of common grace and how that opens the door to special grace. Common grace is universal and can be experienced by all people, both believer and non-believer. Special grace gives enough information for a lost person to decide whether or not to begin a relationship with the God of heaven.

EXILE NO MORE | Week 3
If we are going to live as an exile but not act like an exile, then we must live with an “excellent spirit.” When Daniel’s enemies sought to undermine him politically, they first came after his public political track record but could find no basis for fault or complaint. Even they had to admit that Daniel had an excellent spirit. In a pagan culture, Daniel’s reputation stood out because he was humble, generous and had deep integrity. If we are going to have ongoing impact in a post-Christian culture, we too must have an excellent spirit.

EXILE NO MORE | Week 2
The second message in our series is based on the story of resolve in the life of a young Daniel. He resolved that he would not violate the law of his God, regardless of the circumstance, context, or consequence. So often if we cannot guarantee the outcome of our commitments, we will not make them. Daniel lived a life of total resolve and as a result, engaged in and influenced culture for nearly 70 years.

MADE FOR MORE | Week 1
In week one of the Made For More series, we come face to face with the missional proposition that we were made for more than just chasing the American dream. Our text is 1 Timothy 6 which says that we should instruct those who are rich in this present world to be rich in good works, generous and ready to share. If we are going to live out the purpose of Jesus at every time and in every place, we must begin with the missional proposition.
