Rescuer and Judge (2 Peter 2:1-10)
God is both a rescuer and judge, and it depends on what you believe about him and his truth that reveals which one he is for you.
Established in the Truth (2 Peter 1:10-15)
The call to salvation and the call to follow Jesus are the same call. Therefore, the christian life is a life on the move. It is not static. It is a dynamic life always moving toward Christ.
Make Every Effort (2 Peter 1:5-9)
As we continue our Confident in Chaos series, Thomas Walters reminds us that we make every effort for spiritual growth because it is God's power that works in us.
Granted All Things (2 Peter 1:1-4)
We begin our 2 Peter series, "Confident in Chaos," with a sermon entitled "Granted All Things." We have everything we need to have confidence in this world.
The Living Christ and His Courageous Church (Revelation 1:17-18)
Christ is the the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End who holds the keys of death, and he is alive right now. This truth means that we, as Christians, can fully embrace his admonish to "fear not."
Giving (Philippians 4:10-23)
Giving is a pathway to freedom, but that pathway is only to freedom when Christ is held in His proper place in you life. When Christ is in the proper place in our lives our giving will produce fruit, joy, and blessing.
Joy (Philippians 4:1-9) 11:11 AM Service
In these verses Paul makes it clear that joy is not something that just happens. Joy can be purposely pursued and its source is never bound. In Christ, we can truly have joy, always.
Joy (Philippians 4:1-9) 8:50 AM Service
In these verses Paul makes it clear that joy is not something that just happens. Joy can be purposely pursued and its source is never bound. In Christ, we can truly have joy, always.
Hope (Philippians 3:12-21)
As we continue our study through Philippians, we see in these verses Paul's longing for the Philippians and us to press on. He gives two analogies to help us think through pressing on as Christians, athletes and aliens.
Identity (Philippians 3:1-11)
Attempting to gain righteousness by any other measure than through faith in Christ and his righteousness is worse than silly, the Apostle Paul calls it trash. It is worthless. We cannot place our identity in our achievement and expect joy.
