What Does God Think About Our Plans? (James 4:13-17) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Aug 1, 2022

We can make plans, but God expects us to be flexible, and willing to set them aside, for Him. We delight in God, living in faithfulness to Him. We don't delight in stuff.

Today, our focus will be on James 4:13-17. One of the interesting things about this passage is that there two pretty different ways of reading it. Both approaches take the verses seriously. Both issue a call, and a challenge, that the church needs to hear. But they differ in what exactly that ...read more

Self-Humbling - Matthew 6:16-18 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Oct 19, 2024

Fasting is never commanded in the NT, yet all the godliest people in the Bible did it. If it is important, why isn't it discussed in the epistles? If it is not important, why did Jesus do it? And why did he promise reward if we do it?

Matthew 6:16 When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show men they are fasting. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 17 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 18 so that it will not be obvious to men ...read more

Stress-Free Suffering - Matthew 6:27-34 Series

“[By the waters of Babylon] our captors required of us songs, and our tormentors, mirth, saying, ‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’ “How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a foreign land?

Remember The Sabbath Day Series

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Nov 24, 2022

The Sabbath cannot be found on any calendar! It is one day out of every seven days that we are to rest from our work. The argument of the Sabbath being Saturday or Sunday is nothing more than an exercise in futility!

And the ...read more

Sent Ones Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Dec 25, 2022

Nobody can argue with the fact that you once were blind, Jesus did something, and now you see. We can have the confidence to go out and share that with others.
