The Mystery Of The Baby

December 4, 2022

When mankind rebelled against God, our predicament required God’s intervention. That’s why Jesus came into the world, born into a peasant family in the town of Bethlehem. In this message from Isaiah 9 and Revelation 22, we see how the two natures of Jesus relate together: His deity and humanity. This baby was much more than met the eye.

We face many storms in life, even when we’re in the will of God. While in chains, Paul was sailing to his trial in Rome when a deadly storm arose. In this message, we nail down three applications for facing our storms today. When we find ourselves in a storm, we just might learn something new about God.

How can God turn life’s obstacles for good? Though Paul encountered injustices in prison, that didn’t stop him from seizing the moment to communicate the Gospel. In this message, we’re encouraged by two lessons from Paul’s conversion story. Even amid disappointments and difficulties, God is still working to shine His light.

Many today ignore their conscience when confronted with Christianity. The Apostle Paul spoke directly to Felix, causing the Caesarean governor to become uncomfortable. In this message, we hear a clear warning against the love of money or people’s opinions. Are we willing to sacrifice being comfortable in the here and now?

What are we willing to do because of our passion for God? Paul’s determination to settle a church split in Jerusalem drove him into hardship, and eventually, to be on trial in Rome. In this message, we consider Paul’s dilemma and defense. We too are called to give our lives to carry out God’s desires.

The continuation of the church always depends on its message. The early church at Ephesus stood against worshiping the goddess Artemis, which affected the city’s silversmith business. In this message, we review nine lessons from the church in Ephesus. What will it cost us to follow the message of the cross?

How do our vocations bring glory to God? In the godless city of Corinth, Paul laid a healthy foundation for a lasting church. In this message, we learn truths about facing opposition to the gospel. When doctors, lawyers, teachers, and businesspeople live out the gospel with integrity, the world is turned upside down.

How do we shine the light of Christ in a complex culture? Paul used the beliefs and culture of the Athenians to explain the real God, the real essence of man, and the very real need of salvation Christ offers. In this message, we identify three responses to the gospel. The reactions are mixed—much as it is today in our idol-saturated culture.

How do we share the good news in hostile places? Because Paul and Silas believed the gospel was the power of God, they weren’t intimidated as they shared the gospel in Philippi. In this message, we unlock two motivations to witness for Christ: faith and joy. The gospel can change any heart—like a prison door flinging open.

When God is not our priority, our self-absorption destroys both us and our relationship with Him. When God told Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, his only son of the promise, the only fitting response was obedience. In this message, we ascend the mountain with Abraham and Isaac to find three lessons about worshipful sacrifice. Are we putting the Lord first?
October 2, 2022
Even if we say we do not love the world, we can be tempted to violate our consciences. Lot compromised because his faith was too weak to stand against Sodom’s relentless debauchery. He lost his testimony, his family, and his character. In this message, we apply lessons from Lot’s failure. Is God faithful even when we fall hard?
