When You Don't Like Where God Is Leading You

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 19, 2013

A look at struggles we have with the idea that God gets to shape us rather than us being in charge of our lives ourselves. What does it mean to let Him shape us like a potter shapes the clay?

WHAT GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO BRING THAT INTO MY LIFE? We want to be shaped in the way we choose. - It can be painful to be shaped. - Like a potter pressing his fingers into the clay to mold it into a different shape would probably not “feel good” to the clay if it were sentient, so the ...read more

Psalm 29 is interesting to me as for one of the first times in the book of Psalms we find David not asking God for anything. There is no crisis here, no enemy that is trying to destroy David or the nation Israel. This is a psalm of pure praise and adoration for the Most High God. It reminds us that ...read more

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 26, 2011

We are transformed as the Spirit of God works in us, often through His Word. That transformation, however, shows itself in practical ways like these that Paul discusses.

No One Likes An Exaggerating God Series

Contributed by Troy Luttrell on Apr 15, 2014
