The Cutting Edge

May 20, 2015
Are you going through the motions with no real passion for your faith or God? Are you dull and ineffective? If so, you've lost your spiritual edge, and there's nothing that delights the devil more. Find out how to sharpen your faith again in this single message from Jill Briscoe. Teaching from the story of Elisha and a lost ax in 2 Kings 6, Jill encourages you to uncover how and where you lost your edge.

Ask yourself honestly – have you lost it to bitterness, unforgiveness, lust, materialism, willfulness, laziness, or just plain selfishness? Be encouraged that the lost ax is not the end of the story – it can be found, with God's help!

This message is available on CD or DVD.

Have you ever noticed how kids try to hide things they've done wrong - a broken family heirloom, a bad report card, or a dent in the car? As much as he or she tries to hide the mistake, most often the parents find out. The same is true of our sin. As much as we try to bury our sin, God always knows about it. But how do we confront it? In this message by Jill, she teaches us what to do with sin so that we can make God the true ruler of our lives. This is the final message in Jill's 6-message series on Joshua titled, "How to Be Up When You're Down."

We all can remember a time in our lives when we felt inadequate for something - parenting, a new job, or an unexpected life event. It's during these times that we can't help but think, "I can't do this." In this message, Jill teaches us how we can follow God's will for our lives by not only saying, "I can," but also saying, "I will." Jill tells the story about Stuart, at the age of 17, being asked to teach about the Church at Ephesus.

Do you ever feel like you've lost your fire for God? Maybe you find yourself just "doing" your walk with Christ instead of having passion and drive to dig deeper. When we lose the fire, the rest of our faith suffers. In this message, Jill teaches us how we can reignite the fire to seek a more intimate relationship with God. This is the 2nd message in Jill's 6-message series on Joshua titled, "How to Be Up When You're Down."

There is a war going on right now inside each one of us. It's the battle between good and evil, and it's been going on since the beginning of time. But what does that mean for us? In this message by Jill, she teaches us what the war is about, what role we play, and how we can guard ourselves against the evil one. This is the 1st message in Jill's 6-message series on Joshua titled, "How to Be Up When You're Down."

In this Mother's Day message, we think of our mothers. We celebrate all the things they did right, and we are grateful. But there are some things mothers cannot do - that only God can do! Psalm 139

When tragic events happen, we're tempted to think everything is different and will never go back to normal again. It's sometimes referred to as the "new normal," and it's rarely seen as a good thing. However, evil is evil - that's not new! In the Western world, it feels that way because so much of the evil we hear about is far away, happening to people we don't know. When it hits us in our own back yard, through a national crisis or other circumstance, it is new to us - and it seems desperately unfair. It's then we can choose to berate and judge God for not stepping in, or turn toward Him and recognize that our finite minds cannot understand everything. Nevertheless, God is good, and He is in control! In this single message by Jill, she shares lessons about a believer's response to tragedy by looking back at her own experiences during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. As she sat in a grounded plane in Newfoundland waiting to return to the United States, God used that time to teach her about the eternal promise of safety He has made to all of us who believe in Him. I Corinthians 7:26-35 Similar teaching can be found in Jill's book The New Normal.

Our kids often look at famous athletes, singers, and actors to be their role models or examples of how they want to be. But did you know that they often follow your actions and examples, too? And you may not realize it, but there may be other people in your life who look to you to set a good example. In this message, Jill discusses the importance of being a good example and gives us practical ways we can do so. This is the 7th message in Jill's 7-message series, "Here Am I, Send Aaron," from the Book of Exodus.

This is the 6th message in Jill's 7-message series, Here Am I, Send Aaron, from the Book of Exodus.
