Amen Sister! Finding Joy in the Word of God

John 21:15-17 - Three times Christ implores Peter to feed His sheep. Christ Himself is both Shepherd and Sheep; the Good Shepherd and the Lamb of God. Join us as we discuss what it means for us to be called as shepherds, and what a blessing it is to be counted among His sheep!

Join us as we comb through Isaiah for favorite passages and themes!

Genesis 17:1-8 Abraham received promises that connect all believers forward and backward throughout time. Join us as we explore what those promises meant for Abraham and his immediate seed, and what they mean for us today!

Ephesians 6:10-17 - God knows we are vulnerable beings! But there is so much godly armor wherewith we can clothe ourselves for our mortal journey. What better armor can we have than to be wrapped in His protection and light!

1 Corinthians 1:25 - Paul uses the phrases "foolishness of God" and "weakness of God" in contrast with the wisdom and strength of men, to teach us about the Atonement of Christ.

Amos 3:7 - God has called prophets since the beginning, and we are lucky enough to live in a time when we once again have prophets to guide our spiritual journeys. They aren't perfect men, but they are men of God, worth following and trusting, sent to prepare us for the second coming of our Savior.

Matthew 5:5 - Meekness looks different in a spiritual context from a worldly context. What does it mean, and why is it SO important to our spiritual progression and peace? Well we have some thoughts.

1 Corinthians 12:12-14 - Those of us who call ourselves Christians come in "all shapes and sizes", so to speak. All skill sets, interests, gifts and abilities are represented among our ranks. Christ charges us to be one body; a beautiful analogy that is a perfect way to bring unity to our diversity.

Matthew 22:36-40 - Jesus Christ brilliantly encompassed all of the commandments in his response to a cunning lawyer questioning him on which was his favorite commandment. There are MANY commandments and guidelines prescribed to those who profess Christ, but at the heart of it all is love.

Philippians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." All things! What an incredible promise. One aspect of this promise is the ability to find contentment in all circumstances. Whether in abundance or scarcity, in peace or conflict, in power or weakness, we can learn to be at peace within ourselves. That is a gift indeed!
