Blaze Church

Everyone knows how it feels to be hurt by a family member or close friend. Our normal response is to hurt back. This will always lead to family drama. Joseph had every right to hurt his brothers for what they did to him. He believed three truths that enabled him to forgive. When we choose to drop the rope, we take a step towards forgiving others.

How do you respond when you feel unloved by a family member? We can become aggressive, uncaring, or detached from people who “should” show us love but don’t. We may attempt to fill that inner-emptiness with love from another person, only to realize we are still hurting. As we read about Leah, we discover that the love of God has the power to lessen the pain we feel in moments when we feel unloved by others.

God wants you to have complete joy in life! The key to finding this is not through seeking to serve ourselves in life, but to serve others. When we choose an attitude of serving others, we experience God's heart for unity in the Church. Discover how you can take your next step to experiencing complete joy!

God has beautiful gifts for you! These gifts are given so that we might be the church that fits together to accomplish His purpose for the world. Discover the three gifts God has: Eternal Life, The Holy Spirit, and Spiritual Gifts. You were created on purpose, for a purpose, and God’s gifts will empower you to fulfill your unique purpose!

Is it possible to find true friendships today? Between social media “friends” and real-life “friends” who have lied and let us down, it can be tempting to give up on developing genuine friendships. Something in us longs for deeper relationships. As we look at a group of friends who carried their paralyzed friend to Jesus, we discover what gospel friendships are and why they matter. Blaze Church puts the priority on carrying one another, and that happens best in small groups!

Is worshipping Jesus alone at home what Jesus had in mind when he started the Church 2,000 years ago? With everything moving online, are in-person worship services needed any longer? In part 1 of our series, Rethinking The Church, you will discover what makes gathering together with other people in one space so special and so important.

What are you living for? Is it for the next promotion? The shopping spree? The approval of others? The perfect family life? Ultimately, everyone is going to fall into two categories. We are either living for something that is demanding our life or living for something that is giving us life! We’ll look at the life of Saul from the Bible and the character Peter from the movie Hook to discovery our last truth that only Jesus is worth living for because he is the only thing that will give us life!

What do you do when trouble comes? God’s will is for us to be spiritually equipped so we are ready for when the battle comes. Let’s look at this week’s movie, Jurassic Park, and Paul’s words in Ephesians 6 to find out what tools God gives us to stand strong in the storms of life.

As we follow the characters in the famous '90s movie "Toy Story" we discover 4 truths to loving our enemies. We were once enemies of God but He reconciled us back to himself and because of this truth, we can love our enemies. Join us in seeing how Buzz & Woody go from enemies to friends!

Why do some people seem to pray so well and other people struggle to start? If you’ve said, “I want to pray like that” you’re not alone.
