In 1 Corinthians 13:6, Paul wrote that “Love does not delight in evil.” In other words, love is not calmly happy when bad stuff happens to others. To help drive this point home, Jesus told the synagogue leaders that He came to help Jews and Gentiles. In this week's message, Dean challenges us to remember this as we live out our lives in the modern world.

One of our elders, Dean, challenges us to seek the things of God over the things of this world, which not only enables us to overcome our worries, but also helps us to change (or deal better with the changes that happen to us).

For this week's message from our Win the Day series, Dean talks about the fact that God is great, not only because nothing is too big, but also because nothing is too small. He also helps us understand that how we do the little things is how we’ll do the big things. Or, stated differently, how we do anything is how we’ll do everything.

In today's standalone message, one of our elders, Dean, talks about the various ministries at Sunrise and the critical importance of people serving in those areas. And just as Jesus “did not come to be served but to serve,” a true follower of Christ will give up his or her own comfort and wishes in order to serve others.

One of our elders, Dean, takes us through the next message in our series, Real Faith in the Real World. Covering verses 1-13 in James chapter 2, Dean reminds us that if we treat people the same way God treats them, we will demonstrate love and grace, rather than favoritism. Specifically, he challenges us to show love to one another, in practical ways, without making snap judgments or showing preferential treatment.
