    Walking With God Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Feb 7, 2016
     | 12,031 views

    If there is one thing to summarize the message of 2 John, it’s walking with God. 2 John teaches us how to walk with Jesus and he’s does it in 300 words. And if we will take what John says and do it, we’ll experience "a joy that's complete."

    Walking with God Hannah Kaufold tells the story of signing up to lead a pilgrimage across northern Spain to visit the remains of one of Jesus’ BFFs: St. James. It was 500 miles long. She thought she was signing up for this cool adventure where she got to talk about Jesus and go for a long ...read more

    The grace of God is foundational to a biblical psychology. TThe grace of God tells us how God relates to us. God's grace to us is the person of Jesus Christ. God's grace brought about the first and second creation.

    6. The Grace of God “Of His fullness we have all received even grace for grace” (Joh 1:16). The presence of Jesus is God’s grace to humanity. The manifestation of this grace begins with the creation story. When God spoke and the physical creation can into being, it was the ...read more

    According to the Bible a sovereign God has created all things. Where do that leave the individual? The word of God states that man plans his way, but it is God who disposes those plans.

    7. The Sovereignty of God “Thus says God the Lord who created the heavens and stretched them out; Who spread forth the earth and that which comes from it; Who gives breath to the people on it; And spirit to those who walk on it” (Isa 42:5).

    The more excellent way

    LOVE IS OF GOD Jonathan Swift, author of Gulliver’s Travels, once said, “We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.” Why is love so terribly difficult for us sometimes? Aren’t we followers of a God who is Himself love? Surely ...read more

    Who - or what - is the “god of this world?” (1 Cor 4:3-4) Is he a living character, or an evil force within ourselves? In what way is the “god of this world” a fitting description? Is God in control, or is Satan the ruler of the realm we live in? •Are we
