For far too long, the church has been known for what it is against. We want to be known for what we are for. We are FOR Gainesville, and that means we are for you.

Me and My Big Mouth

Open mouth...insert foot. Don’t we all wish we could avoid that scenario? Our words can get us into all kinds of trouble. But maybe we can learn to keep our big mouths in check.

THE GRASS IS ALWAYS GREENER

The grass is always greener on the other side may be an old cliché, but it lurks in every one of us. So, what do we do with our longing for greener grass?

Be Rich

One thing about being a large church is we can make a large difference. When we come together, when we’re generous, we can change our communities . . . and the world.

The American in the Mirror

Only one person can ensure that we end up somewhere on purpose. And that person isn’t in the House of Representatives or the White House. They’re in our house. In fact, we look at that person in the mirror every morning. The reality is that we face our greatest leadership challenge every morning when we face ourselves.

Scared to Death

It’s scary out there—no doubt about it. We'd all like to remove fear and uncertainty from our lives, but that's not always possible. Are we destined to live scared to death or can we discover a new way of dealing with anxiety and worry?

Pack Your Bags

When one season ends and a new one begins, we all wonder what comes next. That question can be exciting…and stressful. So, how do you best navigate life’s biggest transitions?

Imaginary You

We all want to be known for something. But what do you do when you don't measure up . . . even to your own standards? You’ll never become who you want to be until you are willing to face up to who you actually are. And the only way to do that is to stop worrying about being known for something, and allow yourself to be known by a group of someones.

Fully Alive

Fully alive. Sounds good, right? Maybe too good to be true? But what if fully alive is fully available?

Wish You Were Here

Whether it's your health, your relationships, your finances, or your faith, there's an area of your life in which you can't seem to make progress. But what if there was a way to get from where you are to where you want to be?
