In “Give Us Today”, T.D. Davis (co-lead pastor) explores Jesus’ pattern and posture of practical prayer through the line, “Give us today our daily bread.” Prayer is not just about asking for personal needs, but about trusting Jesus daily and joining Him in caring for others’ needs—transforming prayer from a private act into a communal, embodied practice. In a divided and distracted world, Jesus calls His followers to be a prayerful community that lifts one another up with vulnerability, compassion, and bold trust.

In “A Prayer For Our Holy Discontent”, T.D. Davis (co-lead pastor) explores the posture of “Missional Prayer” through Jesus’ words: “Your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” Jesus doesn’t invite us to try harder, but to join Him in the renewal of all things—starting with our ordinary, everyday lives. This kind of prayer postures us to surrender and serve, asking boldly and simply: “Father, how can I join you?”

Many of us feel inadequate in our prayer lives, often pressured by guilt or the need to “try harder.” But Jesus doesn’t call us to strive—He invites us to rest and listen, beginning with the simple and profound posture of addressing God as “Our Father.” In this message, T.D. Davis (co-lead pastor) helps us rediscover prayer as an intimate, restful connection with our Heavenly Dad—shaping our hearts through listening rather than effort.

Scripture shows us that Christ consistently cared for both the physical and systemic needs of humanity. We see him healing the sick, challenging oppressive religious practices, and standing up for the poor. In doing so, he also addressed the deep emotional needs of people, meeting them in their sorrow, grief, despair, and loneliness – places where he still seeks to connect with us today. But what happens when we are taught to hide or ignore these vulnerable parts of ourselves? In this message, Kalli, our Co-Lead Pastor, explores what it truly means to follow Christ in a holistic way.

In “The Loneliest Words Ever Spoken”, T.D. Davis (co-lead pastor) explores the feeling of loneliness as a God-designed signal rather than a shameful flaw—an emotional hunger pointing us toward meaningful connection. From Genesis to Jesus, Scripture reveals that even divine presence wasn't intended to replace human companionship, and even Jesus embraced both the ache of loneliness and the gift of community. Rather than denying or numbing the pain, we are invited to name it honestly, lean into rhythms of solitude, and pursue intimacy with God and others.
