Telling the Truth for Women

Jill Briscoe

Saving Grace

January 2, 2017
Why is a walk in a garden so relaxing? Because we were created to live in God's garden of perfection, forever. Unfortunately, as the story goes, Adam and Eve made a fatal error and were forced to make their home in the garden of sin instead, where nothing is perfect or peaceful. 

But remember, this is God's story! God came looking for Adam and Eve after they disobeyed. And in His grace, He still comes looking for us today. Jill Briscoe takes us through biblical examples of God's saving grace and how He offers us a way to His riches through Christ. 

This is the first of two messages in Jill's series, Grace in the Garden.

The Holy Spirit can do amazing things within us, if we let Him. In this message Jill explains how we can let the Spirit change us, how we can develop the Spirit's character, how we can respond to the Spirit's call, and so much more. Learning these things can help us walk in the Spirit - not the flesh - so we can have a positive impact on the lives of those around us.  This is the ninth message in Stuart and Jill's 10-message Bible study series on the Holy Spirit.

We are called to live by the Spirit so we can overcome the desires of our sinful nature. But how do we do that? In this message, Jill helps us understand what it means to live by the Spirit by examining the "fruits of the flesh" and then looking at the first three fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, and peace. This is the eighth message in Stuart and Jill's 10-message Bible study series on the Holy Spirit.

Whenever God does anything big, He does it through His Spirit. For example, when God created the Heavens and the Earth, He did so through the power of His Spirit. If the Spirit is capable of doing such huge things, just imagine what the Spirit can do in our lives – if we let Him. In this message, Jill encourages each of us examine our own life and see the fruit of the Spirit.  This is the third message in Stuart and Jill's 10-message Bible study series on the Holy Spirit.

Living in obedience, walking after Him, and seeing people come to Christ through our Godly actions are all ways we can bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit.

This message by Jill will help you understand how to let the Holy Spirit guide your spiritual life so you will bear much fruit.  This is the second message in Stuart and Jill's 10-message Bible study series on the Holy Spirit.

Luke is the only Gospel writer who records this part of Jesus' life. Jesus is now a pre-adolescent. These years are known as "the silent years." Luke 2:41-52

"That though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich." 2 Corinthians 8:9 There are over 350 prophesies in the Old Testament that describe the Messiah. Jesus, born with no fanfare or even a crib, fulfilled every single one! The mathematical odds of that are virtually impossible. And yet, even with that knowledge, the question about Jesus is ultimately a personal one you have to decide on your own. Who do you think the baby Jesus was? In this message from Jill, she asks you this very question. If you believe the baby Jesus is God, you will live your life with a different perspective and purpose.

While here on earth, Jesus himself sought communion with God through prayer. His disciples were to do likewise. He gave us a pattern to follow. For those who ask, seek, and knock, God is more than willing to answer. He is even more willing than friends or an earthly father, as Jesus explains through the parables. But the Christian's prayer requests need to be in line with Jesus' model prayer. Luke 11:1-28

"Mary...sat at the Lord's feet listening to what He said" (Luke 10:39). One of the things that matters most to Jesus is our personal relationship with Him. This matters to Him even when it doesn't matter to us! He offers the human race an incredible invitation. He says, "Let's talk." What does this mean? It involves listening to His Word and responding in prayer. Luke 10:38-42

Who was Jesus? Jesus was no ordinary child. The book of Hebrews says He was Divinity. He was God Himself, Immanuel - God with us. In this Christmas message, Jill Briscoe discusses the miraculous birth of Jesus, who Jesus was, and what that means for us. Jill reads her poem "Divinity Wrapped in a Blanket."

How can we get ready for Christ to come this Christmas and not allow Christmas to come without Him? It's not easy to keep Christ in the spotlight when we are so busy preparing for the happenings of the season. But we can, and must, focus on what He did for us as we celebrate His birth this Christmas. Luke 1:26-56
