You Already Have an A - Part 2

April 12, 2016
Do you remember cramming for tests in school, memorizing facts to ace an "A"? You probably also remember the stress and the pressure to get everything right. Too many believers are living their spiritual lives this same way, trying to earn an "A" by doing and saying all the right things.

If that's you, there's something you need to know - you already have an "A" because Jesus took the test for you through His death and resurrection! In this message by Pete Briscoe from his series on Galatians, learn why you don't have to march to the beat of the "perfect" Christian life anymore... you can dance!

Based on Galatians 5:1, this is the 2nd message in Pete's 23-message series, Dance Lessons.

Are you more concerned with what others think of you than you are with doing what is right? Barnabas was a man of incredible character who was far more concerned with Christ's agenda than he was with the world's agenda. But before you put him on a biblical pedestal, recognize that you've been given the same power that motivated and activated Barnabas - the indwelling Holy Spirit. In this message, Stuart Briscoe shares how we can learn to commit wholeheartedly to the Truth and live daily in the fullness of the Spirit. Based on Acts 11:19-30, this is the 4th message from Stuart's series Heroes of the Faith.

When storms come tearing through your life, is your faith strong enough to withstand the pressure? Is your commitment to Christ deep enough so you can keep going? Peter faced obstacles where he failed miserably - but Jesus had a plan in mind for Peter's redemption even before he failed! Do you believe you're redeemable and God wants to use you to make a difference in the darkness? In this message, Stuart Briscoe shares how, in spite of our worst moments, God stands ready to use us to achieve His divine ends. Based on Matthew 14:1-36, this is the 3rd message from Stuart's series Heroes of the Faith.

"Follow me." It's a simple command but has profound implications. Jesus used these words to call His disciples - all men of various backgrounds and professions. Even Matthew - a despised, hated, and isolated tax collector - was called by Jesus without hesitation. To this very day, Jesus is still calling men and women of all backgrounds, personalities, and abilities to follow Him. What does following Christ look like in today's world? Stuart Briscoe takes us to the story of Matthew for answers. Based on Matthew 9:9-13, this is the 2nd message from Stuart's series Heroes of the Faith.

Gideon was once a fearful and hopeless man who openly questioned God during a difficult period. So he seemed to be quite an unlikely candidate when the Angel of the Lord came to him with an incredibly important mandate. In this message, Stuart Briscoe uses the story of Gideon to dispel any preconceived standards we might hold about whom God calls, and asks the question: Is He calling you? Based on Judges 6:1-7:25, this is the 1st message from Stuart's series Heroes of the Faith.
