More than a Certificate

None of Us Is as Wise as All of Us

Have you ever been 100% certain you knew exactly where you were going—refusing to look at the GPS—only to end up completely lost in an empty field? There is a frustrating but true reality about human nature: Confidence and correctness feel exactly identical from the inside. In this final week of our series, Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times, Pastor Nate Loucks unpacks the most uncomfortable question of all: Are we humble enough to know what we don't know? Join us as we discover why God designed wisdom to be a community project, and how trading our demand for absolute certainty for a lifelong commitment to holy curiosity can change everything for our community here in LaPorte.

The Slow Burn

Have you ever found yourself winning a flawless, Emmy-winning argument in your car while driving entirely alone? It’s easy to get worked up over scripts we write in our heads. In a world that actively profits from keeping us angry, activated, and outraged, a temporary offense can quickly turn into a permanent outlook. Today, for Week 4 of our series Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times, we are looking at the book of Proverbs to examine "The Slow Burn" of anger and bitterness. We will discover how to widen the space between a hurtful stimulus and our response, protect our peace of mind, and choose a deeper grace over cultural contempt.

Lust and Cheaper Things

The counterfeit always looks better at the entrance than it does at the destination. Week 3 of Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times — an honest, non-shaming look at the wells we drink from, and the one that actually doesn’t run dry.

Enough and to Spare

Most of us are more comfortable giving our time and energy than our money. This week, Proverbs asks why — and what that might say about where we've placed our security.

The Beginning of Wisdom

We have more information than any generation in history — and we’re not always sure what to do with it. This morning we open a new series in Proverbs with the one question most of us have never been taught to ask: not “is this wrong?” but “is this wise?” It changes everything.
