A Big Mess
Only the Lord can be in the business of bringing good out of evil, blessing generation after generation. The actions of David and his pursuit of Bathsheba and all the events that surrounded this big mess are one of the key stories of redemption in Scripture. Sometimes the enemy tricks us into thinking that the pain and mess of our lives are beyond repair - beyond help. We see ourselves as a mess, chaotic and without beauty. But that's not the way God sees us. In His mercy, His agenda is one of redemption and restoration - no matter who we are. He is the star breathing God, but He is also the author and artist of our lives, and the minute not only matters to Him - from the smallest cell to the largest galaxies - He cares for it all. Key Passage: Psalm 51

Radical Prayer
Radical prayer life. Short not weak. If you have a passion to change the world pray radical prayers. Do you pray for God to shut the door or open the door concerning his will? Pray prayers that glorify God not you. Radical violent prayer creates a new uprising. Radical prayer goes to the root of prayer the reason for your prayer. Radical prayer allows God to change the world through you. For Gods glory not yours.

Who are the Merciful (Matthew 5:7)
We are continuing our study in what is the Lord Jesus’ most extensive and detailed explanation of what it means to be in the kingdom of God. This is not an instruction manuel on how to enter the kingdom, but a description of those who are already in the Kingdom; a description of all true believers, what it means to be a genuine Christian. I have noted repeatedly, and will continue to do so, that being a Christian is not about what you do, but is a matter of who you are. God is utterly unconcerned about externals in themselves, but is intensely concerned about the condition of your heart. The Certainty of your Christian profession is not about what you do, but what defines you in your inner man, your character, your view of God, sin, Christ, self, others, and the world. This morning we will continue to examine what the inner man of a genuine Christian looks like, by looking at verse 7 of Matthew 5, “Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.”

The Unmerciful Servant
We all struggle to forgive others, particularly those closest to us. Jesus tells this parable to reveal the importance of forgiving others. We are only able to do this as we see their sin in light of ours against God, and focus on Christ's sacrifice for our redemption, the forgiveness of sin.

City Within a City
The church is called to be distinct from the values of the world, right? The church is also called to love the world, right? So how do these go together?

Sacred Psalms: Psalm 23
Ysavel Medina will be bringing this morning’s message from that familiar passage, Psalm 23. The power of the Psalm is not just in memorizing the words, but rather in thinking its thoughts. As most of you know, Ysavel is the executive pastor at The Ridge, where he provides support to the operation side of the church and guidance to staff. Ysavel and his bride Marla will soon be celebrating their 26th wedding anniversary.
