    All believers are partakers of the heavenly calling. Having been called to belong to Jesus, we press on towards the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

    I. THE HIGH CALLING OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS. Philippians 3:14. When we are converted, we have a change of mind, a change of heart. Yet this is not only a once-for-all experience, but also an on-going process which will not be completed this side of eternity. We have been changed, we are being ...read more

    The path of least resistance is a path that many choose throughout life, because it requires so little of them

    It is a path that most have taken. However, life teaches us in many ways that the great things of life cannot be accomplished by taking the path of least resistance.

     | 6,368 views

    Who has influenced your life? Would you agree that we are in need of those who can and do make a significant impact on others for the cause of Christ? Our current society needs those of influence.

    The Steps of a Good Man 1 Thessalonians 2: 1-3 As we consider the social climate of our modern society, we would have to agree that we stand in desperate need of leadership. Things have certainly changed in recent years, and much of that change has not been for the better. There seems to be a ...read more

    The Pursuit Of Ministry Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 8, 2020
     | 3,979 views

    Things have changed much since the first century, and yet much remains the same. Paul realized the danger of majoring on the minor and minoring on the major. His insight still speaks for ministries today.

    The Pursuit of Ministry 1 Thessalonians 2: 4-9 We have spent much time laying the groundwork for our study in this precious book. Paul was well aware of the faithfulness and influence the church in Thessalonica had on those around them. He was encouraged with the presence of their faith, ...read more

    Imitators Not Pretenders Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Oct 14, 2020
     | 5,045 views

    Paul wanted to ensure the Thessalonians imitated the example he had lived before them, and most importantly, the example of Christ. Rather than pretending to emulate their faith, they were to actively live out their faith.

    Imitators not Pretenders 1 Thessalonians 2: 10-13 As I studied this passage I was reminded of the need for sincerity and genuineness among the church. We live in a day plagued with hypocrisy. One of the most offered arguments against attending church in our generation is the presence of ...read more

    A couple of hunters are out in the woods of New Jersey when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing; his eyes are rolled back in his head. Terrified, his friend whips out a cell phone and dials 911. “My friend is dead! What can I do?” he cries over the phone. In a ...read more

    Let our memory of the hand of the Lord in and through us inspire us in our present work and our walk with the Lord. When we remember we keep focused on our hope in Jesus Christ, straining toward what is ahead.

    Intro There is a power in remembering significant events. Your wedding ring is a marker to remember the day of your marriage.

    The Stages Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Oct 26, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,747 views

    It is God's will for people to progress through the stages of discipleship from being spiritually dead, to being a spiritual infant, child, young adult, and parent. We must be able to assess where we are and where others are in the process so we all can grow to maturity.

    A. I like the story told of the little boy who was confused about something and said to his Bible class teacher: “There’s somethin’ I can’t figger out.” 1.

     | 3,994 views

    Not unlike other churches within the first century, Thessalonica faced much adversity and opposition. They were relentlessly attacked for their faith in Christ. However, Paul encouraged them to remain steadfast in the faith, standing firmly for the Lord.

    Having Done All, Stand 1 Thessalonians 2: 14-16 It has been a few weeks since we began to study this powerful letter to the Thessalonian church. Our last encounter revealed Paul encouraging the church to be an imitator of Christ rather than a pretender of the faith. He exhorted them to a life ...read more
