This past week at Element Church we continued our Christmas sermon series called “My Advent: What does it mean for me?” In this series we are going back to our Christian roots, lighting a candle in the Advent wreath each week, and talking about what Advent truly means for me. But we don’t want to le…
This last week at Element Church we started our Christmas sermon series called “My Advent: What does it mean for me?” In this series we are looking at the Advent (which means arrival) of Jesus and answering the question of how it applies to us.

On Sunday at Element Church , we had our annual “You Choose Sunday.” On these days we let the people pick the worship songs and also select the sermon content by submitting questions that I do my best to answer. We’re gonna have to start doing two weeks of You Choose Sunday because there were way mo…
Hey Element Church! I know it’s several weeks away but I wanted to start letting you know about our annual year end offering called the “So That” offering on Sunday, December 11th. You can watch the video below where I talk about it in our Sunday service, or you can continue reading. Either way, if…
On Sunday at Element Church we finished our sermon series called “Decision 2016: Escaping the political paranoia”. Regardless of who is elected and regardless of what happens to the economy, what does God want us to decide to do? So far in the series we talked about changes that need to be made in G…
Most of us remember the horrifying story of Elizabeth Smart. On June 5th, 2002 she was kidnapped from her bedroom in Salt Lake City, Utah and endured nine months of “living hell” as she was raped and tortured repeatedly by her captor. She was only 14 years old at the time and the fact that she survi…
On Sunday at Element Church we started a new series called “Decision 2016: Escaping the political paranoia”. In this series we are talking about the “decisions” we need to make this election season. Paranoia is in full effect. Now, maybe more than ever, we are asking questions like, “What are we goi…
On Sunday at Element Church we concluded our series called “Don’t Be A Fan”. In this series we’ve been looking at what it means to truly follow Jesus. We don’t want to be fans of Jesus = Enthusiastic Admirers. We want to be followers of His. This week I preached from Luke 9:57-62 and asked the quest…
I LOVE the Broncos but I cheer for the Raiders. You won’t hear a true Bronco fan ever say that, right? Why? Because Bronco fans don’t cheer for the Raiders and that illustration helped us this last weekend at Element Church as we talked about what it truly means to follow Jesus. No, I didn’t teach t…
Just one “t” in that word by the way and that one word, “but,” was a BIG word in our sermon on Sunday at Element Church . We concluded our sermon series called “Labels”, based out of 1 Peter 2:9-11 . We’ve been talking about how when we clearly know who we are and whose we are, we can live in the fr…
That was a lens I used on Sunday at Element Church to talk about a specific issue as we continued our sermon series called “Labels: Living in our true identity”. In this series we are talking about WHO we are in Christ because we believe in Him. The whole series is built around one passage in the Bi…
