Awaken Westchester Church

Hunger and Thirst

Rather than looking at desire as something negative, Jesus affirms desire as something that is good and inherent within us all. Listen this week as we discover how to fulfill our truest desires in a way that leads us into the good life.

Inheriting the earth

An inheritance is a gift freely given. How would life change if we saw all we own, including the land we live on, as a gift given to us by God and us simply as stewards of those gifts? Rather than hoarding and pursuing self interests, Jesus invites us into a life of using our gifts in a responsible, just way that brings blessing to others and the land itself.

Blessed are the Mourners

When you think about grief or mourning, most likely the last thing you think about is the good life. In fact, it probably feels like the very opposite. Yet, in this second beatitude, Jesus announces that the good life is found by those who mourn because of the comfort they discover in that process. Listen this week as Dave shows how mourning leads to a way of living that opens our heart to joy and deeply connects us with God, ourselves, and each other.

The Good Life - Poor in Spirit

The good life is what we all desire to live. Yet, why does the good life feel so elusive? Join us as we begin a new series on the Beatitudes exploring how Jesus teaches us to access this good life. And as we discover this morning, sometimes the good life is better and more accessible than the good life being advertised all around us.

Guest Speaker Mitch Massey

A change in leadership, an emerging hope, lots of waiting, and preparations for new beginnings. Are these the introductory experiences of the book of Joshua or the themes of transitioning into 2021? Well, we serve a relational God who gave us His revealing, living Word that so often is applicable today. Let's start the New Year with parallel scripturally encouragements, relevant reminders, and biblical challenges!
