WILD
BRITTANY PETKAU
SCRIPTURE
They’ll turn back to Me. He’ll roar like a lion, and when He roars, His children will scurry in from the west.
​
Hosea 11:10
SUMMARY
God's character cannot be limited, yet often we sanitize God to become a product of our culture's imagination. As a community, however, we want to rediscover who God really is and look at the attributes that can often confuse us. This week we're starting off by exploring how God is wild and what it means to fear Him.
Our God is to be feared because he is wild and roars like a lion, is a warrior who never loses, and is incredibly zealous. But the thing is, he’s roaring for you. He’s a warrior for you. He’s zealous for you. He’s wild and untameable yet uses the wild character to fight for you.

PAST EPISODES
DEATH TO "BUSY"
November 8th
We often think that what we say are the most important things in our lives is an accurate representation of what we spend our time on, but in reality, what we spend our time on is a way more accurate representation of what we think is important. In this message, we look at three really practical ways of killing “busy” and prioritizing what is actually important.
RATED R FOR ROMANCE
November 1st
Relationships are a huge part of our lives in our 20s, but at times we can put so much pressure on ourselves and our relationships that they end up breaking. There may not be a set formula for relationships, however, there are three questions that we can ask ourselves as we are making decisions that can help us navigate singleness, dating, and marriage.
MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO AROUND

In this message, we explore why God cares about money, how to dream for our finances, and how to create a healthy attitude for our money now.
