A new year means new goals . . . but not just any goals. Pastor Mike helps you push the reset button to think beyond the usual physical health goals and instead focus on your spiritual health. This message looks at the first of three components to good spiritual health: priority. Are you doing things in your life that matter most to God? Are your priorities his priorities? How do you know? The good news is that Jesus actually tells you what your priorities should be.

We live in a world that constantly tries to define us by our greatest achievements, or our worst failures. But who does God say we are? In Unshakable: Finding Your Identity in Who God Says You Are, Pastor Matt Ewart shows us that we get our identity by who Jesus is and what he's done for us.

Don't start the new year with just regular goals that focus on physical health. Instead, look at goals that help you with spiritual health.

That's the focus of Pastor Mike's new sermon series, "Reset." Join Pastor Mike and Amber Albee Swenson as they preview the new series, while somehow also incorporating talk of their favorite '90s jams, how Amber successfully played matchmaker, and each of their spiritual gifts.

Pastor Mike also shares a little bit about this month's new book, "Unshakable: Finding Your Identity in Who God Says You Are," by Pastor Matt Ewart. "Unshakable" shows you that your identity doesn’t come from what you’ve done or what’s been done to you but from who Jesus is and what he’s done for you. And since Jesus is rock solid, so is your identity. Request your copy with your gift to the ministry at timeofgrace.org.

Amber also mentions the book, "Gifted for More" by Dr. Bruce Becker that helps you discover your spiritual gifts. You can purchase your copy at timeofgrace.store
