    Learning Courage In Christ

    based on 4 ratings

    Fear walls us in and makes us like the servant of the Master that buried the talent he had been entrusted with in the ground. Faith sees ourselves as gifted and bold in Christ.

    Today’s lesson finds a man digging a hole in the ground. We learn that a man going on a journey entrusted a portion of his wealth to three of his employees. Two of the three employees invested their wealth and received commendable returns. The third was afraid and hid his in a hole in the ground. ...read more

    Pentecost 19: Many things distract us from the blessings our faith point us toward. But Jesus says to rid ourselves of the things that can harm our faith.

    When I first bought my car, it was a joy to keep it up. I washed and cleaned it several times a week. I didn’t like for Sofi or the kids to eat in it. I was careful to park it so that it wouldn’t be damaged by others opening their doors into it. Oil changes were religious experiences. Taking care ...read more

    Blowing Up Boxes Series

    Contributed by Lanny Smith on Feb 24, 2021
     | 2,588 views

    We often find ourselves putting people in "boxes." Race, gender, and endless number of boxes. And it's limiting. We put limits on expectations of others and ourselves. As we follow Jesus, we watch him "blow up" the box around a man born blind.

    The Very Real Danger Of Spiritual Neglect Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jan 1, 2021
     | 5,008 views

    The issue of Christians who fall away from the faith was present in the New Testament, even as it is today. How can we prevent this from happening, and be vigilant against growing weary of following Christ ourselves?

    Today we begin a new message series from the Book of Hebrews which I’ve entitled “The Faith that Endures.” It’s a sobering book because it addresses a sobering topic—an issue that I know that I would prefer not to admit that it exists. It addresses the issue of Christians who are tempted to fall ...read more
