	Psalms - 2010 The book of psalms is a collection of poetry—songs and verse written as an act of worship, to be used in worship. Many people over several centuries wrote these psalms. But their teaching, their encouragement, and their warnings are just as relevant for our lives today. Because their God is also our God. And he never changes. Each of the psalms is like a separate mini book—with its own message to deliver. As we explore various psalms, we find guidance for both our heads and our hearts on a host of different issues.
	Easter - 2010 Everyone blows it. At one time or another, we’ve all failed. If we’re honest, we’d admit that we’ve failed even to live up to our own standards, let alone God’s standard of perfection. So sin is a reality, a constant companion. It’s an ugly subject, so we tend to avoid it, hide it, distract ourselves from thinking about it. But God would have us do the opposite: confront it, admit it, deal with it. God actually has some good news for us about sin. As we prepare to celebrate Easter, it’s good to spend some time dealing with this topic that we love to avoid.
	chip 2.0 - 2010 I’m not the same old person I used to be! God’s been making some surprising and significant changes in my life. But this isn’t a series about ME! It’s a series about GOD and how he’s trying to shape me and transform me—so that my choices, attitudes and actions imitate the character traits of Jesus. And it’s a series about YOU, because God wants to make the same kind of “Jesus transformation” in your life. Perhaps what I’m learning can help you discover the upgrades and exciting innovations God wants to make in your operating system, the all new and improved “you 2.0”!
	Strategery: the clash between faith and action - 2009 Work hard. Make good decisions. Stick with it. A sure recipe for success? The problem is that we’ve all seen too many exceptions to the conventional wisdom that tells us our fate is in our own hands. “Just trust God,” others would say. So, does that really mean we sit back idle, do nothing, and wait for God to intervene? In Genesis, the Bible tells the story of Jacob, a man known for deceitful tactics and cunning strategy. He tries everything he can think of to stack the deck in his favor, to manipulate the outcome and ensure his success. In the process, he learns some hard lessons about the tension between belief and effort.
	Is This The Church You’re Looking For? - 2009 The special flavor of Fellowship Arapaho comes from our values. We’re not trying to be like other churches. We’re striving to carry out the unique identity God has for this church. This series explores why we at Fellowship do things the way we do. Centered on the Bible. Passionate about responsible grace. Free to practice creativity. A safe place to be yourself as part of a real family. Time-tested truths freshly packaged for today. We’re well aware that we’re not for everybody…but we might be just the place for you.
	Who Are You? (And How You Got To Be That Way) - 2009 Kind? Clever? Vindictive? Impulsive? What makes you the kind of person you are? Our character is the sum of several different factors that influence our personality, interact with each other, and mold us into the people we become. The characteristics that emerge will either help us or haunt us for the rest of our lives. Jacob was a man whose whole life was distinguished by deceit and trickery. But he began that journey same way each of us gets started down our own path.
	Rediscover Christmas - 2008 Every Christmas we spent many hours putting up decorations, shopping for gifts, opening presents, visiting family and going to one party after another. All that rushing around could leave you not only exhausted, but perhaps also feeling a bit guilty for allowing the holiday "to obscure the true meaning of Christmas". But instead of leaving yourself a lump of coal in your stocking, you can actually find spiritual significance in the midst of the many activities of the holiday rush.
	Submission: Impossible - 2008 Good morning, Mr. Phelps. Your submission, should you decide to accept it, is to obey the authorities in your life, respect them and cooperate in every way you can. They may be neither right nor righteous, but you must still recognize that God put them in positions of power and they serve as His agents. Should you disavow all knowledge of God’s instructions and fail in this submission, it is quite likely you will self destruct.
	The Dirty Words of Leadership - 2008 Celebrating freedom, enjoying an unprecedented level of choice and empowerment, most of us have developed an allergy to being told what to do. Authority. Control. Submission. To the modern ear, these words sound cruel and archaic. They sting like expletives. But the Bible tells us some surprising truths about these "dirty words" of leadership.
