    God often uses strange tools to help us advance the Gospel as pioneers. From Paul, we see two of those tools.

    Theology of Suffering

    The problem of pain, it has been called. There are some people who refuse to believe in Jesus, who refuse to believe in God because of the problem of pain, or maybe a better word is “suffering”. The thought goes, if there is God, and He is good, then how can there be suffering? How can a good God ...read more

    Knowing Jesus ultimately means having only good options

    Phil 1 21-30 To me, and I could be really mistaken, high school is a time to make sure our choices with what we want to do with our lives can happen.

    Joy (¡¦chara¡¦) is a deep and abiding inner rejoicing which was promised to those who abide in Christ and obey His commandments (cf. John 15:10-11); it does not depend on circumstances because it rests in God¡¦s sovereign control of all things (cf. Rom. 8

    Finding Joy Despite Circumstances Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Apr 25, 2005
    based on 6 ratings
     | 7,641 views

    What is real joy and how to do you find it? Paul the Apostle begins teaching us by showing joy is found by partnering with others’ lives and sharing the gospel.

All around us exists a mentality of "me first." And even though when we come to Jesus we receive something invaluable as a person - the salvation of ...read more

    It is incredible how that God can take a seeming disadvantage and turn it into an advantage for His glory.

    Philippians 1:12-14 -- “But I would ye should understand, brethren, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;” “So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;” “And many of the brethren in the Lord, waxing ...read more
