Last summer, something monumental happened. One of Uncuffed's founding producers, Greg Eskridge, came home after more than 30 years in prison. In this episode we’ll bring you back to that emotional day last summer when he walked out of the San Quentin gates, free at last. Our work in prisons is supported by the California Arts Council, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, independent foundations, and donations from listeners like you.

Join us this Sunday as we officially launch three services at DRCC! We’re on a mission to create Room for One More; one more person, one more family, one more community to experience the hope of Christ and catch the vision for how our lives can make a difference in the Kingdom of God. As we celebrate the launch of our third service, we’ll dive into the story of two sons and their desperate attempts to find vision and purpose for their lives. What does it mean for us to create room for others or accept the room created for us? Let’s discover it together!…
We kick off a brand new series this weekend titled, "Room for One More," where we will be talking about how, at some point in our lives, we have all faced a task, challenge, or situation we felt was much larger than what we could handle on our own. Larger-than-life issues need solutions that are larger than this life. This is why we rely on the strength, wisdom, and power of Christ working in and through our lives. Over the past few weeks, we have been focused on answering the question: “Who’s your one?” This Sunday at Damascus Road, we will be looking at how we can invite the Spirit of God into our lives to reach our one and face some of life’s other challenges. Join us for what we anticipate great things to happen!…

Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like PlăcutThe loneliness epidemic continues to grow. While it might be tempting to diagnose the contributing factors such as Covid-19, social media, or the rise of the one-person household; the reality is connection between humans has always been complicated. The faithful questions we need to wrestle with are, “What is God’s response to our loneliness, and does the church have a role to play?” Throughout scripture, we read about a triune God who exists in perfect community all the time and actually sets up social structures in families and the church to help us ward off isolation. But considering that loneliness is only growing in our world, something must be off about the way we’re trying to live out God’s design for human connection today. This week we wrap up our series, Church, But Make It Better, and explore the question, “How do I Make Friends at Church?” Won't you join us?…

Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like Plăcuthis shouldn't even be a question! In a world full of selfishness and hate, Jesus said, "By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." Love is literally the main identifier for Jesus followers! So what's going on? Join us this weekend as we talk about the way we treat each other, what that says to a world hungry for love, and what it looks like to live in a way that makes others want to know Jesus.…

Join us as we continue our series "Church, But Make it Better" where we will explore the ever-sensitive topic of tithing.

Second, this week will include authentic wrestling and frank confessions over money's complicated role in our lives. And finally, if you show up this week, we guarantee that you will walk away with a richer understanding of how God and the church relate to you and your money – if not, we'll personally refund the price of your ticket.…

Redare mai Târziu Redare mai Târziu Liste Like PlăcutMost of us have what appear to be never-ending to-do lists. As we complete one list, another one begins, and we find ourselves behind when we feel like we have just gotten ahead. Life is filled with problems to be solved, tasks to be completed, and issues to be addressed. Church is really no different. As we seek to do the work of a “Life Saving Station,” there is no shortage of jobs to be completed. It can be overwhelming with all that needs to be done to figure out where we focus our efforts. This Sunday, we will look at what the church is supposed to be and how, when we focus on “being” instead of “doing”, we will find fulfillment. This happens when we all take our place in the body of Christ and live a life focused on revealing who Christ is through His church. Join us again this Sunday as we look at: “Church – But Make It Better!”…
One of the most amazing truths of the human experience and one of the most glorious realities of God is that there is always a new day coming and a subsequent opportunity to choose who we want to be and how we want to live. When the calendar flips each year, it brings this reality into clear focus with the freshness of a new start and all the resolutions and changes that come with it. What is true for us individually is also true for us as a community. What choices and changes might God be calling us to as a community this year? Join us this week as we begin a new series on us—the community of God. This week, we start a series called "Church, But Make It Better." We’ll discuss who we are as a church and what God might call us to choose together in 2025.…
Kick off the New Year with us at Declaration Sunday! On the first Sunday of 2025, we’ll gather to worship, pray, celebrate baptisms, and take communion together as we consider what we want this New Year to be like for ourselves, our church, and our community. We’re expectant for how God will meet us as we come curious and open-handed for the year ahead. See you on Declaration Sunday!…
Merry Christmas and Happy (almost) New Year! We're shaking things up this week and creating space for our volunteers and staff to rest and celebrate the holidays with their families by experiencing church online. Join Pastor Faith, Andy and the team, and a few special guests for worship, a word, and an activity for the whole family. We'll wrap up our series "Same Story: Always Changing" as we explore what the transformative power of the hope of Christ means for us today.…
Life moves fast—trends come and go, news changes every minute, and it’s easy to feel like you’re just trying to keep up. But what if, in the middle of all this change, there’s something constant, something solid? The Christmas story is 2,000 years old—angels, shepherds, a baby in a manger—but it’s not just history. It’s hope that doesn’t fade, love that doesn’t fail, it’s a God who stepped into our chaos to bring peace and joy. This good news wasn’t just for one time, one group, or one generation. This Christmas, come discover how the same story still matters—and how it can make a difference in your ever-changing life today. Timeless truth. Real hope. For you.…
So… what is your favorite moment in the whole wide world of Christmas movies? Is it when Buddy screams out “SANTA!!!!” in the middle of the department store from the movie Elf? Maybe it’s the moment when Kevin McCallister breaks the fourth wall and says directly into the camera: “This is it. Don’t get scared now,” in the 90’s classic Home Alone. Or maybe you are more in favor of young Tiny Tim when he exclaims “God bless us, everyone!” from A Christmas Carol. If you’re anything like me, it’s probably any one of the several wild and unrepeatable phrases from the lips of Clark W. Griswold in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Whatever it is, there always seems to be one moment in any great story that sticks with you for good. It’s a moment that you know is coming, but every time it does, you love it again and again each year you watch it. Join us as we explore some of the most memorable and enduring parts of the true Christmas story and we ask – how can this moment hit us in a fresh way this year?…
What are you feeling as you come to the end of 2024? Joy? Hope? Fear? Loneliness? Confusion? Assurance? Anger? Peace? All of these emotions are part of the human experience - impacted by both our personal circumstances and the state of our world. God understands all of these emotions because He came and shared our life. He experienced and bore the same weakness that we often feel. He came, not as a rich and powerful ruler - protected from life’s losses and dangers, but as a baby - dependent, vulnerable, needy. God came and trusted a teenage girl to take care of him. God came to show us who He truly is and who He planned for us to be. The wonder of Christmas is this incredible paradox of God With Us - not as the most powerful being in the universe but as the most helpless participant in his own creation. How? Why?…
Join us this weekend as we begin a new sermon series focused on the Christmas story. Over the next five weeks, we will examine this familiar story through a different lens wrestling with the question “What relevance does the Christmas story have in my life today? “ As we embark on this journey together, our hope and prayer is that God will speak to each of us in a powerful way, helping us experience a renewed sense of hope and purpose, despite the ever-changing circumstances of our lives. This Sunday we will begin our journey together by looking at “The Birth of Jesus Foretold” from Luke 1:26-38. What does the town of Nazareth and the message from the angel Gabriel have to do with our lives today? Come and find out!…
When you think about eternity, what comes to mind? For some of us, eternity looks like pearly gates and streets paved with gold. Others envision disembodied spirits floating on clouds playing harps. Still others envision… nothing. In our series Kingdom Come, we’ve been on a five-week journey examining what it means to be a part of the Kingdom of God. As we wrap up this series, let’s take a look at what scripture has to say about what the Kingdom will be like for eternity. Is it really one, long worship service in the clouds? Will there be a physical dimensions to our forever? And who gets to be in eternity? Join us as we wrestle with the question, What is Eternity Like?…
Everyone wants to be an influencer it seems. Maybe we can learn from the greatest Influencer the world has known. His influence has nothing to do with marketing or style or getting people to buy stuff. Rather his influence led people to abandon their old life and their old way of evaluating what’s valuable. And He invites us to influence others like he did - through the example of lives that are compellingly attractive.…
