In the Darkroom, Part 2 – Background Noise
May 24, 2010
From time to time, life throws you a curve ball. The conversation you didn’t want to have. The news you didn’t want to hear. The phone call you didn’t want to receive. And when that happens, if feels like we’ve been locked in a darkroom with no answers to your questions. If God really loves us, why would he let this happen? Why doesn’t he answer our prayers? How will this ever turn out in any good way?

Denver 2010, the UNconference
May 5, 2010

What is Denver 2010?
In partnership with the Ecclesia Network of churches, New Denver will be a hosting a gathering of leaders to think imaginatively about the future of the church with others in an open-source gift economy way. The next BIG idea is about giving time to interact about innovative ways to partner with God in the renewal of all things. UNconference is about freely sharing creative ideas with one another without putting anyone on a pedestal. It is more participant oriented than personality driven. You will hear from practitioners who are on the front lines. There is also no cost, because people are sharing their gifts and knowledge freely.

The Good Life is Found in the Good News
May 3, 2010
Last night we wrapped up our three-part series entitled The Good Life. If you missed last night you can listen to it over on our messages page, but the assignment Stephen gave us at the end of the evening was to spend some time this week reading about the kingdom that Jesus taught about in Matthew 5-7 to discover more about this good life he offered us. As you read these three chapters of scripture ask God to show you what it would look like for God’s will to be done in your life and how you can participate in this kingdom into which Jesus has invited us to live.
The Good Life, Part 3 – The Way
May 3, 2010
The Good Life. Three simple words with very deep meaning. Just saying the words evokes complex thoughts, emotions, and desires. But what does it mean to really live the good life? How do you know how to get there? How do you know when you’re there? How do you stay there?
In the first two weeks of this series we looked at the book of Ecclesiastes and found out that just denying our desires doesn’t lead to the good life, and neither does just indulging our desires. This week we look at what Jesus had to say about the good life.
