Ryan takes us into the final stretch of Mark’s Gospel, where we witness how the disciples respond to the stress and chaos of Jesus’ final days in Mark 12:32-72.

In Mark 14:12-31, Jesus shares the Last Supper with His disciples, confronting them with the question: ‘What will happen to your faith when the pressure is on?’

From Mark 14:1-11, Ryan enters the final stretch of the Gospel of Mark, where a story of calculation, scheming, and betrayal unfolds around a beautiful act of extravagant love.

Ryan concludes our Change is Good series with a message for those of us who might be skeptical about the possibility of change because we’ve been stuck for so long. What do we do when we want to change … but don’t feel like we’re changing?

Endure your suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is there that a father does not discipline? – Hebrews 12:7 The word discipline brings up difficult feelings for some – it makes us think of pain, or abuse, or shame. Can discipline be good? Alison continues our series “Change is Good” with a message about the what, when, and how of God’s discipline.

So then, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; what is old has passed away – look, what is new has come! – 2 Corinthians 5 Scott continues our series Change is Good with a message about the compelling love of Christ and what it means to be a new creation in Him.

Do not be conformed to this present world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may test and approve what is the will of God—what is good and well-pleasing and perfect. – Romans 12 This week, a message on what lasting change requires: not just resolve, but renewal.

As Arbor moves to two services for the first time in years, Ryan opens our new series Change is Good with a message on trials. They aren’t fun, but … nobody ever developed unshakable faith through a life of comfort.

Blessed is the one… whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. – Psalm 1:2 Ryan concludes our series on Scripture by answering the question, ‘What is Scripture?’ In this sermon, we explore how we can find delight in Scripture and how God uses it to transform us.

How do we build ryhtms with the Bible in a transformitive and sustainable way? Ryan discusses how scripture serves as a guide that continually points us to Jesus, and he offers practical steps for engaging with the Word more deeply in our daily lives.
