Awaken Church

God has given us something worth sharing: our faith in Jesus! And He calls us to show the world who He is through the way we live, and we need to tell others about Him through the words we speak.

Following Jesus doesn’t just change what we believe - it changes where we belong.

A moment in Jesus' Ministry where His Kingdom Work was not only Misunderstood, but Maligned as evil and what we can learn today about the same

There is a difference between being around Jesus and following Jesus. While the crowd was attracted to what Jesus could do for them, Jesus called His disciples closer. Jesus is always inviting us to take one step closer, moving from the crowd into a relationship with Him that transforms us and sends us out on His mission.

How can we look at this exchange between Jesus and the Pharisees and see how a heart of stone can rob us from what Jesus offers us.

The Sabbath was a gift from God, but the Pharisees turned it into a burden. They missed the heart behind the Sabbath. But Jesus reminds them of the purpose of the Sabbath and tells them that He is Lord of the Sabbath.

Sometimes we find ourselves asking why don't you just do what everybody else does? That's essentially the question the religious leaders are asking Jesus. But Jesus is going to show them that He didn’t come to give you more religion He came to give them the gospel.

Jesus meets a man named Levi, who is a tax collector, and what Jesus does with this tax collector is going to show us something incredibly important about the kind of people Jesus came to save.
