Loyalty, Loyalty - Everyone!
Most of us probably don’t think of ourselves as "overly-loyal" in any significant way. We just make choices or follow habits, responding to what feels important or rewarding in a given moment. But over time, those small decisions begin to stack up and subtly shape the direction of our lives. Our time, our attention, our money, and our energy are all flowing somewhere already. Whether we’ve named it or not, something is already setting the terms for how we live.
The hard part isn’t discovering that we’re devoted to something. It’s realizing that our already-present devotion inevitably leads us somewhere, that what we cling to ends up shaping what we love … and what we love will reshape us in its own image. But there’s always an opportunity to notice what’s been guiding us and to consider different loyalty. Because, in the end, our allegiances will determine who we really are.

Message Series Description:
Every one of us gives our loyalty to something. Sometimes we choose it. Sometimes it almost seems to choose us. Success, comfort, approval, control, self - something. These allegiances shape how we think, how we make decisions, and how we see the world around us.
Jesus, however, invites us into a different allegiance, to a wholehearted devotion that actually frees us from divided loyalties and helps us see reality as it truly is. When our hearts rest in Him, our lives begin to align with a kingdom that does not shake, a purpose that does not fade, and a hope that does not disappoint.
