"Repent" by Randi Nelson

Is it time for a new way of thinking? Time to take a turn and make some changes? Maybe some recent experiences desensitized to the conviction of the Holy Spirit? Listen along to this timely message relating to the practice of repentance and the practical benefits of humbling ourselves before God and letting Him be Lord of our hearts.

“Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,”
— Acts 3:19 (NKJV)

"Abide" by Dusty Johnson

Listen along as Pastor Dusty continues the current "DEVOTION: Celebrating Simplicity" series with this message from John 15:4-5. He challenges us to learn how to not simply DO things for God, but to simply BE connected to God. For the duration if the message Pastor Dusty wears his coat jacket backward to illustrate how the simple abiding disciplines like fasting, sabbath, silence and rest may seem very backwards compared to the values of our culture. 

"Vision for Work" by Dusty Johnson

Listen along as Pastor Dusty continues a series on VISION that challenges us to celebrate life with purpose. This message challenges us to rethink our perspective relating to our vocational pursuits in light of the Bible's view of work.

“A job is a vocation only if someone else calls you to do it for them rather than yourself. And so our work can be a calling only if it is re-imagined as a mission of service to something beyond merely our own interests” - Tim Keller, Every Good Endeavor

"Vision for Relationships" by Dusty Johnson

Listen along as Pastor Dusty brings this second message in the VISION series that challenges us to celebrate life with purpose. This message focuses on upgrading our vision for relationships in light of the CitySalt theme calling us to “Celebrate Goodness” in the way we see and interact with the world around us.
