Fortunately, Jesus offers complete forgiveness instead of crushing condemnation for our past mistakes.

God Wants You To Have A Code

We all follow hyper-specific personal rules that reveal our true values. However, we often resist God's rules because living by a code requires difficult effort. In this message from Deuteronomy 12, we explore how biblical boundaries protect the good life God wants for you. When you inevitably fail, Jesus offers radical forgiveness instead of shame. Receive His empowering grace today and start building a life that boldly says God matters! ⛪ Looking for a church in New York City? Come visit Vineyard Manhattan on Sundays 10AM!

God Gives Laws To Bless You

Do you ever feel like good things only happen to other people? We often think blessings are random, and just wait for luck. But God has actually put opportunities right in front of you to start choosing a blessed life today! In this message from Deuteronomy 11, we explore how God makes blessing a matter of our daily choices. However, evil sneaks in whenever we fail to deliberately choose the good. By that point, our willpower alone is never enough to save us. Fortunately, Jesus paid the ultimate price, freely offering us unearned grace. Because of Him, you don't have to be perfect to receive God's favor. Step into His grace today, start choosing a blessed life, and become a source of hope to the world around you! ⛪ Looking for a church in New York City? Come visit Vineyard Manhattan on Sundays 10AM!

God Gives Laws For Your Consideration

Do you find yourself making the same mistakes year after year? We often try to run from the pain of our past by blaming others or avoiding hard truths. However, doing so keeps us stuck in a cycle of self-deception and pain. In this message from Deuteronomy 11, we explore what it means to live a truly "considerate" life. Discover how honest reflection on your past—and deep consideration of what Jesus has done for you—can break the cycle of stubbornness and soften your heart toward God, yourself, and others. ⛪ Looking for a church in New York City?
