Have you ever felt like "home" is a place where you are not? In this message, we explore the concept of home—not as a physical location, but as a place of rest, well-being, and total acceptance.

Drawing from the famous story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15, we look at a powerful truth: Sin changes our view of God, but it never changes God’s view of us. Whether you feel like the younger brother in the "pig pen" of life or the older brother struggling with resentment, the Father is waiting with open arms.

In this message you will learn:

- How to distinguish between the Holy Spirit's conviction and the Inner Critic’s condemnation.

- The "Roman Gospel" vs. the Gospel of Jesus.

- The "King’s Protocol": Why God deserves the first and last word in your life.

- How to lower the defenses that keep you from experiencing God's transformational love.

What happens when God’s grace meets the most broken of lives? In this powerful message from Romans 5:6–21, Pastor Nathan shares the incredible true story of Max, a hardened man living on the streets whose life was completely transformed by the “aggressive forgiveness” of Jesus Christ. Through the story of Kurt’s ministry on Portland’s streets and Paul’s teaching in Romans, we discover that God’s salvation is far bigger and more powerful than we often imagine. Sin and death may threaten us, but grace wins hands down.
