North Point Community Church

We never know how one small invitation might change someone’s story… until we offer it.

We celebrate beginnings, but maturity often requires the courage to embrace necessary endings. Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is let go of what once worked.

A busy life can become an empty one when we spend so much time chasing what’s next that we miss what matters now.

The clock keeps ticking and life keeps moving, raising a deeper question about whether what fills our time actually carries any lasting weight.

Healthy relationships aren’t built on rules, but they can’t survive without a particular one. And it’s a rule that removes every loophole.

The secret to stronger relationships isn’t being understood, but choosing to put someone else first, even when they don’t deserve it.

Every conflict feels like it’s about what someone else did, but the real source runs deeper and it’s hard to admit.

The story of Jesus didn’t begin with confident believers. It began with disillusioned followers who walked away, only to be pulled back by something they couldn’t ignore.

The gap between skepticism and faith starts to close when Christianity is viewed through the lens of history. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and John Dickson, the story of Jesus is presented as something meant to be investigated, not avoided.

Jesus regularly challenged people’s assumptions about both wealth and eternity, and when he did so it revealed that the way we handle what’s temporary points to what we truly believe is permanent.

Many people experience faith primarily as something they attend or consume. But the moments that deepen faith most often come when we begin giving it away.

It’s easy to assume that prosperity leads to generosity. But many times the opposite is true—generosity becomes the turning point that leads to prosperity.

One year ago, we kicked off our generosity initiative across our Atlanta-area churches. What if we’re not just making progress—but crossing into a defining moment?

The fires of life expose what we’re made of. When the pressure rises, will we protect our comfort and reputation or remain faithful when it costs us?

You don’t actually know what guides you until doing the right thing threatens your outcome.

Resolve in the small moments shapes who you become in the big ones.

We often assume purpose requires perfection, while Jesus points to a kind of completeness that comes through growth, not flawlessness.

In a world full of opinions and advice, where do we go when our questions are personal, painful, and unresolved?

People aren’t avoiding church because they don’t have needs, but because they’re unsure church is a safe place to be honest about them.

We take values like human dignity, compassion, and justice for granted today, but they only feel obvious because the church first introduced them.

Christmas marks the arrival of a solution to an unsolvable problem—how to stand before God when obedience isn't good enough.

No one was looking for God to appear in person, yet Jesus came to make the invisible God unmistakably known.

It’s common to feel a tug-of-war between inner anxiety and recognizing God’s nearness. In this conversation with Andy Stanley and Steve Cuss, we’re invited to consider some false needs that may be steering our reactions.

First-century Israel expected a king who would overthrow Rome. Jesus offered a kingdom far bigger—and he had to redefine “Messiah” before they could see it.

We’re all going to follow someone or something. If not Jesus, then who?

Our problem often isn’t that we ask God for too much but rather that we settle for too little.

Following Jesus requires that we love God and love our neighbor as ourselves. This begs the question of who does and doesn’t fall into the neighbor category. According to Jesus, selective compassion is not an option.

We set out to build a church where the convinced and the curious could belong.

It’s one thing to trust God when you’ve lost control; it’s another to resist acting like God once you’ve gained it.

When life goes from bad to worse, will you simply react—or respond as if God is still with you?

Your life isn’t defined by what’s been done to you, but by how you choose to respond—especially when every instinct says to react.

We never know how one small invitation might change someone’s story… until we offer it.

The hardest part of waiting isn’t always the delay itself. Sometimes it’s the uncertainty of why God seems absent when we need him most.

We’re convinced that if we just do the right things, life will turn out the way we want—but what do you do when the formula breaks and you’re left waiting, powerless, and discontent?

Our biology and culture push us toward impatience, but God calls us to trust that what he’s doing in us is worth the wait.

Andy Stanley’s conversation with Bruce Deel highlights the inspiring work of City of Refuge, a Be Rich partner dedicated to moving people from crisis to independence.

Not everyone will have the opportunity to be famous, but everyone has the opportunity to be great.

Family can be both the most rewarding and most challenging part of life. The challenge is accepting the messy “real” while still aiming for God’s “ideal.”

People miss or dismiss Jesus sometimes, but when they do it’s usually for an unnecessary reason.

We don’t miss out in life because opportunities aren’t there—we miss out because we let deception, distraction, or disobedience rob us of them.

Life is better connected—because spiritual growth, care, and accountability happen in relationships, not in rows.

Worship isn't just for the mountaintop—it's a lifeline in the valley. Even in your most painful, confusing moments, you can choose to praise God and experience his goodness.

Our stories of struggle, loss, and redemption are powerful reminders that God never leaves us alone. Today features stories of three of our worship leaders: Tann, Mark, and Clarissa.

If you’re curious, cautious, or somewhere in between, the Spirit invites you to lean in, let go, and be led.

When we choose to fight our battles on our knees, we surrender control and invite God to do what only he can do.

Whatever picture we have of God isn’t enough.

When we see God for who he is, we’re able to trust him even deeper.

Our trials, temptations, and tension shape us—and they have a way of revealing who or what we’re truly depending on.

During trials, our tendency is to ask God to change what’s going on around us. But God is more interested in transforming what’s going on in us.

The easy path is tempting, but God often does his greatest work on the hard road—where faith, obedience, and courage grow.

Jesus didn’t come to help us win at survival. He came to show us how to surrender so we could truly live.

The problem isn’t what we love, it’s the order in which we love. Disordered love leads to disordered desires—and ultimately a disordered life.

All of us are tempted to take “good things” and worship them as the “ultimate things” that shape our purpose and identity.

God doesn’t size you up and write you off—and neither should you. In God's eyes, you're invited to move forward, not remain stuck in the past.

The resurrection isn’t just a story—it’s the event that launched a movement and changed everything. If Jesus really rose from the dead, his resurrection has real implications for your life, your faith, and your future. In this Easter message, we talk about this event, why we celebrate it, and why it is the anchor for everything we believe.

Death had the last word because death was the consequence of sin—but not anymore. Jesus, God’s final King, crushed both sin and death and invites us to reign in life through him.

As followers of Jesus, we have all wrestled with the same tension at some point: we all want to be saved, but we don't always want to submit. In this message, we talk about the difference between "Jesus the Savior" and "Jesus the King" and why it's the most important thing.

You were created on purpose, for a purpose. Without clear vision, you’ll drift into coasting, and coasting always takes you downhill.

Before inviting Peter to follow him, Jesus asked Peter to “put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.” After a night of fishing with no success and despite his reservations, Peter agreed: “But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” At some point, every Jesus follower will face their own “because you say so” moment. Like Peter, we won’t know what hangs in the balance or our decision. It’s better to find out than miss out. Ready to engage in Deeper/Wider?

All of us face obstacles to generosity. The common denominator for our obstacles is a desire for more. The apostle Paul taught that true wealth isn't found in accumulation but in contentment. And he shows what it looks like to place our hope not in riches but in God who richly provides.

Everyone has a generosity plan, but most people prioritize spending first and leave giving as an afterthought. Jesus flipped the script on that approach with “Seek ye first” living. Embracing this financial template is a tangible expression of submission to our King.

Jesus redefined generosity—not as spontaneous or sparing, but as intentional and prioritized. His approach ensures we don’t put our trust in riches but in God who richly provides. Choosing to follow his definition of generosity results in greater impact, less worry, more joy, and more peace.

Biblical generosity is informed and fueled by the acknowledgment that God owns it all. We are simply managers. When we adopt that posture, we view everything we “own” as a potential tool to further the agenda of our King. We will give first and adjust our lifestyle accordingly. Christians who adopt this perspective as the organizing principle for their personal finances find it easier to surrender the other components of their life as well. As Jesus made clear, the number one competitor for our devotion to God is our devotion to more. More money and more things.

Jesus’s kingdom is not advanced by force, but over time through transformed lives. We are invited to participate in its expansion.

The fight of faith is about becoming more like Jesus, not about defeating enemies.

People all over the world claim to be Christian, based on a belief Jesus is the ultimate king. But at times, we can find ourselves living in defiance of the very king we swear allegiance to.

The term "Christ" was originally a royal title meaning "Anointed One" or “King,” not a name. And the message of the Gospel is not just about personal salvation, but about aligning with the reign of Jesus as King.

If we re-center our faith around the arrival of a King rather than a ticket to heaven, we will discover why his arrival and his kingdom is good news for all people.

Just as the apostle Paul wrote to the Jesus followers in Ephesus, you were made for something more than yourself. You are God’s workmanship, and you’ve got something to offer God’s Kingdom.

The lineage of Jesus is full of people with stories that would make anyone blush, including the likes of King David and Lot’s daughters. But in spite of jaw-dropping choices people made, God’s purposes marched forward.

Rahab is one of a few people in the lineage of Jesus that wasn’t Jewish — she was a Canaanite. Not to mention, she was a prostitute. But neither of those things kept her from being used by God in an incredible way.

The story of Judah and Tamar is probably not one we would have mentioned if we were the ones telling the back story of Jesus’s ancestors. However, many times God’s story highlights the unlikely and the undeserving.

We have the power to influence the posture of our heart — but how?

Our capacity to forgive is flow from what we’ve been forgiven. So, how much forgiveness is enough?

Jesus uses the parables of Lost Things to demonstrate His love for us.

While we can't predict when miracles happen, there is a posture we can take that increases the chances of God doing a supernatural work within us.

Our circumstances don’t define how God feels about us. So how do we navigate those circumstances when we don’t get the miracle?

Miracles are at God’s discretion to further God’s purposes.

The miracle of the universe is the foundation of our faith in God, but a different miracle is the foundation of our faith in Jesus.

Serving people with different lived experiences is one of the primary things God uses to fine-tune our worldview.

We all fall short sometimes. How we respond to temptations and frustrations can affect our well-being and relationships. What would happen if we brought our struggles into the light and invited others in? 

Everyone has a worldview. It governs your beliefs, decisions, and behaviors. You owe it to yourself to be honest about your source of truth because that will ultimately govern your life.

What’s really going on in the world? The reality is that something is governing your life — and it’s not you.

Since 2007, our Be Rich campaign has been making the world an even better place. After all, devotion to God is best demonstrated and authenticated through love for others.

We must take responsibility for the me nobody can see.

Our choices today will leave our loved ones with one of two things in the future: a burden or a blessing.

Sometimes we have to go back to move forward.

Your irresponsibility will eventually become somebody else's responsibility.

We are far more likely to develop meaningful faith when people of faith surround us.

We have a natural tendency to be critical toward others because we want others to change for our benefit. So how does Jesus actually address this idea of being critical and judging others? Is it ever healthy? How do you want to be judged?

A game that requires a loser is a game nobody wins. When we play the comparison game and allow envy to motivate our actions, it can cost us more than we expect.

When it comes to relationships, the blame game is a game that no one wins.

A game that requires a loser is a game nobody wins.

We can disagree culturally and politically, and still love unconditionally.

Following the script of Jesus doesn’t mean all men will be the same. But it does mean we’ll be better men.

Somebody may have defined masculinity for you, but how will you define it for yourself?

What could our world look like if we chose restoration instead of condemnation?
