Christians today live in a world that is activity-heavy and relationship-light. The result is spiritual emptiness. We struggle to know what God wants FROM us and FOR us …. and we’re unsure what a real relationship with God really looks like.
This was never God’s idea! HIS idea of faith isn’t about rules or religion – it’s about relationship. In Romans 12, God gives us a clear picture of what Christians should look like at the root level. If you’re ready to move beyond the motions of religion and experience a real relationship with God, your journey begins here.

There is a deep sense of unease in our rapidly changing world. We all know something has been lost but don’t know why or where it all leads. Popular culture says it’s all about me – that the end justifies the means, that love means self-satisfaction, that status and appearance are what count. And this ultimately self-destructive perspective has thoroughly infiltrated the church as confusion replaces conviction. The way back, the path of hope, starts with knowing God for who He really is.
When you join Chip Ingram in this in-depth study of seven attributes of God – His goodness, sovereignty, holiness, wisdom, justice, love, and faithfulness – you’ll see Him in a whole new light. It will change the way you think about God, yourself, and others. You will pray and live with a deep peace and a renewed purpose as you see Him as He longs to be seen.

Do you know that you, your friends, and the members of your church are God’s “masterpiece?” God has a dream for your life. He didn’t save you just so He could take you to heaven. He has an assignment for you here on earth.
He created you in His image, He filled you with His Spirit, and He blessed you with spiritual gifts so you could live a life of impact. But until you know how to recognize and use your gifts, you will never experience all that God wants you to experience. You were meant to discover how He has uniquely wired you, and the roles in the body of Christ that He created you to fulfill.
In this fascinating study, Chip Ingram explores passages from Romans, Ephesians, and 1 Corinthians to understand the role of spiritual gifts. In the process, you’ll be invited to pinpoint your own primary spiritual gift and then learn a Biblical process to develop, and deploy your gift for greater ministry and significant impact.

Is life change really possible? If we’re honest most of us would answer, ‘No.’ That’s because most of us have tried numerous programs that promise big changes, but in reality, deliver very little results. You long for transformation, but don’t know where to begin.

Join Chip Ingram as he helps you to identify the barriers that have held you back from receiving God’s best and then break out of a destructive lifestyle and become the person you’ve longed to be. This series is designed to help move you from the frustration of failure to the freedom you have in Christ.

Hang on to your seat. It’s going to be a journey inside the very folds of our Bibles, a journey that will teach us about our greatest foe, Satan, also known as Lucifer, Dragon, Serpent, and Son of the Morning Star. Although this lying thief comes to “steal, kill, and destroy,” God details in His Word the battle plan to uncover Satan’s cunning deceptions and to resist his sinister schemes.
The cosmic conflict exploding all around us will have eternal implications, for us and those we love. In this series you will be prepared to do spiritual battle with the enemy of your soul… and win! You’ll learn to clothe yourself with God’s “spiritual armor” so you can be confident of your certain victory over the scheming enemy. ACSI approved.

Scripture calls Christians to “be prepared” to give answers to anyone who asks about the faith. Are you prepared? Or do you feel ill-equipped?

Equipping you and giving you confidence is why pastor and Bible teach Chip Ingram created this Group Bible Study to accompany his Why I Believe video teaching series.

Do you need help prioritizing your life? If so, you’re not alone. The frantic pace of life is wearing many of us out. Our biggest struggle is balancing all of the stuff we have and do. Every week we juggle a long list of “to do’s.” Go to work … church … school … gym … grocery store … spend time with kids, friends, family, etc. Repeat. But have we ever slowed down long enough to evaluate our priorities or even find out what God’s priorities are for our lives? God knows that when the stuff of our life gets out of balance, devastating things happen. That’s why He wants to help us get our lives back in balance!

Imagine this: one Christian reaches one person for Jesus over the course of six months, and then that cycle continues with each believer reaching another person for Christ every six months — in about 35 years we could reach the entire population of the earth with the gospel! But this is only possible if the church pivots from an “addition” method of evangelism and instead models Jesus’ method of spiritual multiplication.

Jesus has revealed God’s road to greatness in the Scriptures, but it’s counter to our culture, and certainly counter to our instincts. It requires intention, planning, humility, and faith. He teaches that anyone who wants to achieve greatness can do so, as long as they follow HIS ROAD — the one less traveled.

One of my greatest concerns in life is the spiritual lives of my children and grandchildren. It’s no secret that our world is becoming increasingly anti-life, anti-marriage, anti-gender, and anti-Christian. It’s one thing to educate and prepare myself for hard discussions or outright ridicule, but it’s another thing entirely when I think about our kids growing up in this climate. How can we respond?

In our small-minded human-nature economy, we think that freedom means going our own way. In fact, freedom is found in laying our lives down in the service of God, the One who made us, who knows us, and who has welcomed us into fellowship with Him. It is in this state of full surrender that the longing to obey rises up in us.
