    Before Israel ever had a king, they already had one, who was God Himself. This message explores the backstory to how God’s people moved from living under His rule to demanding a king like the nations around them, and why that choice mattered. In their longing for a king, we’re ultimately pointed to the true King over all things; Jesus Christ. Speaker: Mike Slayden

  • Generous With His Gifts

    Generous With His Gifts
    Jan 18 2026
    Biblical generosity begins not with money, but with God Himself – a God who is generous by nature and who created the world for His glory and our good. Because everything we have has been entrusted to us by God, we are not owners but stewards who are called to faithfulness, contentment, and trust rather than accumulation. Jesus taught often about money because our use of resources reveals our hearts. Believers are invited to invest their resources in God’s work through joyful, intentional, and sacrificial giving, not under compulsion, but as an act of worship and spiritual maturity. At The Well, the ministry and mission of the local church are sustained entirely by the faithful generosity of individuals, handled with integrity and accountability. Generosity becomes a joyful response to grace as we participate in God’s ongoing work in our church, our city, and the world. Speaker: Brad Bell

    The Well's mission is to help connect people to God and to each other in every neighborhood. But what does it mean to truly be the church in every neighborhood? God has called us to be a church that is engaged and involved in our city, so that's what we do as people of The Well. We are a battleship, not a cruise ship, and we cultivate connection and generosity in our people to impact the community around us for His glory. Speaker: Brad Bell

  • For the Good of the Next Generation

    For the Good of the Next Generation
    Jan 4 2026
    In Genesis 21, Abraham plants a tamarisk tree that he would never see fully grown in his lifetime. Why would he do such a thing? Because he knew it wasn't about him. He was thinking of the future and about the next generation of people who would benefit from the shade it would provide many years after he was gone. May we continue to be a church that does not forget or forsake the next generation. Rather, let us live in a way that shows we care about those who will live long after we are gone.
