    Generosity | Relentless Pursuit - Week 7
    Nov 17 2025
    As Thanksgiving approaches, Pastor Jordan Dunahee reflects on gratitude and shares a personal story about his connection to Illinois basketball. He humorously describes a game's 'Money Grab' segment, drawing a parallel to life's struggles with money and how the world's system is broken compared to God's economy. As part of the 'Relentless Pursuit' series, he emphasizes the significance of generosity as a pillar of discipleship. Pastor Jordan explores the biblical definition of generosity, urging congregants to view it as a gift rather than a burden. He delves into 2 Corinthians 8:1-9, highlighting the Macedonian churches' example of generosity despite their poverty. He underscores the importance of prioritizing generosity by first giving ourselves to the Lord and trusting Him with our finances. He shares a personal testimony about experiencing God's faithfulness in finances. Pastor Jordan concludes by emphasizing the grace of generosity, reflecting on God's ultimate gift through Jesus, and challenging the congregation to respond in generosity, prayer, and worship.

  • Prayer | Relentless Pursuit - Week 6

    Prayer | Relentless Pursuit - Week 6
    Nov 9 2025
    There is something at the center of our shared human experience, something deep in our souls, that longs to cry out to something beyond ourselves. Every person—man, woman, and child, Christian, Buddhist, or even Atheist—will find it hard not to exclaim their gratitude to a ‘Higher Power’ for the greatest joys in life, or beg that same ‘Power’ for deliverance in their most dire time of need. For the Christian, that ‘Higher Power’ is the one true God revealed in Jesus Christ, and that ‘crying out’ is a spiritual act called prayer—the sixth pillar in The Relentless Pursuit.

    Community | Relentless Pursuit - Week 4
    Oct 27 2025
    In the early 17th century, poet John Donne asserted in one of his writings that, “no man is an island…” Meaning that no person, no matter how gifted or resourceful, can ever truly be self-sufficient—we can’t live this life on our own. Thousands of years before those words were written, God proclaimed it was “not good” for man to be alone. This week in The Relentless Pursuit, we pull back layers about how we were created to be in community with others.

    Holy Spirit | Relentless Pursuit - Week 3
    Oct 20 2025
    Have you ever thought about how many things you trust without fully understanding them? Microwaves cook our food in seconds, but most of us can’t explain how. Cars take us miles with the push of a pedal, yet few could build one from scratch. We trust these things work, even if we don’t fully grasp how. The same goes for the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of disciples. This week in The Relentless Pursuit, we dive into the mystery of the Spirit.

  • Identity in Christ | Relentless Pursuit - Week 2

    Identity in Christ | Relentless Pursuit - Week 2
    Oct 13 2025
    While what comes to our minds when we think about God is foundational, it is equally important to know what comes to God’s mind when He thinks about us. In fact, the whole of the Christian story could be summed up in God’s opinion of us; that in His eyes, we were worth dying for. Our identity in Christ is the new reality that we are called to live from when we have stepped into the Kingdom and accepted Jesus as its King.

    The Gospel | Relentless Pursuit - Week 1
    Oct 7 2025
    Everything in life has some sort of starting point. Races begin on a starting line, ball games commence with a first pitch or kick-off, speeches have introductions, and even your car has an ignition to get things going. It’s no different in our faith journey with Jesus. God relentlessly pursues us, and we call that story and good news, “the gospel.”
