Message for 06.02.13 :: Life can feel like a grind. Not only do we get locked into endless routine - guilt and shame can make us feel trapped. The Bible declares we're meant for more than day-to-day living. We're meant for more than shame, failure, guilt and judgment. We are meant for freedom. Romans teaches us how to live in God's freedom and join Him on an adventure of faith.

Message for 04.28.13 :: A lot of us look at our resources and feel like there isn't enough to go around. We'd like to live a generous life and make a difference in the world, but we just don't have the time, energy or money. We can barely handle the stress as it is! But the bible is full of promises to turn our 'little' into a lot. We don't need massive resources to make a massive difference, we just need a little bit of faith. God isn't about division, He's about multiplication. Turn His power loose in your life, and go from stressed to blessed.

Message for 04.21.13 :: Have you ever wondered why God doesn't give you all you ask for? Why He seems to bless some people more than others? The bible teaches God provides not only for our own needs, but He blesses us to be a blessing to others. As we are generous, God trusts us with more and pours His favor into our lives. As we let His generosity flow through our fingers, He trusts us with more and more. He moves us from a 'not enough' life to a life where we have more than enough to share.

Message for 04.14.13 :: We all know what it's like to try and out-earn our wants. The typical path to happiness demands we spend money (we don't have) to get joy (that doesn't last) and usually leaves us broke or broken. God's path leads people to the blessed life. He asks us to trust Him, not only for our needs, but also for our contentment. He offers a simple way to move from broke to blessed. With a little bit of faith, you can unleash God's power in your financial world and discover the happiness that money cannot buy.

Message for 04.07.13 :: Imagine the power of God working in your life, helping you with problems, giving clarity on direction and opening up opportunities. This is the picture of the blessed life, one where God pours His favor and wisdom on you and those you love. It's a wide- open life that brings strength, security and significance to those that choose to step out in faith and put God first in their life. Join us as we open up the Bible and learn how to be blessed.

Message for 03.31.13 :: Everywhere we look the world seems stuck: the economy, the government, the real estate market, jobs and more. We are stuck! The good news of Easter is that God is never stuck. Nothing can stop Him - His power is uncontainable. His grace never runs out. Our God reaches out to all of us who are stuck and offers hope, new life and a love that won't quit. Come to Easter at Central as we celebrate the God who is Unstoppable.

Message for 03.24.13 :: Join the Central Family as we come together to honor God's sacrifice of His son through sharing in Communion. This is a special time to prepare our hearts for Easter and the message of hope it brings. We will get to experience this together as we focus our hearts and minds on our unstoppable God.

Message for 03.17.13 :: The world has a way of making us feel insignificant. Sometimes it seems like no one is listening and no one cares. We are endlessly busy, but nobody seems to notice or appreciate the difference we make. The only people who seem to matter are rich, famous or lucky. The story of Hosea reminds us, that even though there are billions of people in the world, God is personally obsessed with you. He not only wants to forgive your past, He wants to give you a brilliant future. God has a specific purpose for your specific life, and the more you lean into him, the more you become the unique, irreplaceable person you were meant to be.

Message for 03.10.13 :: A lot of us expect our problems to disappear once we reach out to God. When trials continue or escalate, we get confused and frustrated. Sometimes we pray for things to happen or not happen, but God doesn't seem to answer. It leaves us wondering, does He really care about me? The story of Hosea reminds us that despite how we feel, God relentlessly pursues us with love. Even when it seems like our world is falling apart, God holds all the pieces in His hands, and in time, will put us back together stronger than when we started. All we need to do is trust Him and move forward knowing nothing can ever separate us from His love.

Message for 03.03.13 :: It's human nature to run from God. People see Him as a police officer chasing them down or a judge waiting to convict them of all their crimes. But God doesn't pursue us with judgment, He pursues us with grace. God offers a beautiful picture of grace in the story of Hosea and Gomer. This is the nature of God's extravagant grace. He loves us when we are least lovable. He pays a high price for us when we are least valuable. It's time to stop running and be caught by grace.

Message for 02.24.13 :: A lot of us get worn out trying to stay on God's good side. We know we should go to church more, pray more and read the Bible more, but when we try to live a 'better life,' we fail. The more we fail, the guiltier we feel and the harder we try next time. There's a word for this: it's called religion. But just like the shocking story of Hosea, where a prophet marries a prostitute, God doesn't pursue us for religion; He pursues us for relationship. Time to stop running for His approval and rest in His perfect love. Join us as Jud kicks off this new series based on his new life-changing book of the same name.
