Just as Paul brings a perspective as God’s instrument in both his occupation and ministry, similarly we have a calling to live out our purpose for the people we are responsible for.
Perspectives of a Tentmaker 1 Timothy 6:1-10 What kind of bosses do you work for? What type of a boss do your employees think about you? As for me, I had many. One of them has a mouth as foul as a sewer. But if you get to know him, his heart is as tender as a newborn’s skin. The one ...read more

Leadership has always been essential to God’s kingdom work. When Paul lists the “equipment” in God’s workshop, he includes leadership—with this qualifier: take it seriously.
Equipped to Lead Romans 12:8 (NLT) “...If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously…” Introduction Our text for the past few weeks has been Romans 12:6-8 (NLT) In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well.

As Paul shares with the Colossians some of the aspects of his ministry, he provides for us an excellent example of the difference that one person can make. Let's follow his example.

If we're not careful, we might overlook the missing the treasures the book of Philemon holds: the beautiful story of grace, forgiveness, and reconciliation, reflecting both the heart of Paul and the heart of God.

Must women be silent in the church? Can a person under the unction of the Holy Spirit control himself? This message examines guidelines Paul taught in 1 Corinthians 14 concerning church order.
Intro We are in the last half of 1 Cor. 14 for our text today. Last week, we concluded with Paul’s words in verses 18-19, “I thank my God I speak with tongues more than you all; 19 yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten ...read more

Paul calls us to holiness and purity and explains all that. Neither are we to defraud one another. He is very direct with the Thessalonians. Sexual sin must not be entertained as it destroys sanctification.

Paul commands the Thessalonians not to quench the Spirit. We will consider that and the ministry of the Holy Spirit, and the use of gifts given to every believer. Biblical prophecies are not to be despised through neglect or misappropriation. Victory in storms.

Paul tells us to present our bodies as living sacrifices. How are we transformed into a living sacrifice and live that out? Consider these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell
Read passage and pray. For the month of January, we’re preaching on the theme of Collide. The idea is that the ways of God often collide with the ways of the world.

Saturday of the 21st Week in Course 2023 Ordinarily we tend to associate St. Paul’s teachings on chastity and lust with the letters to the Corinthians. But that’s shortsighted. Remember that even as far back as Plato and Aristotle, the virtuous life was associated with men and women who would ...read more

"For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries."It seems like a contradiction, but Paul saw difficult situations as opportunities to speak about Jesus.
