What does the Word say about us being the boss?  Today Amy looks at the phrase but also the heart behind this line of thinking.  How can we think biblically about the "work" we do?

“Christianity teaches righteousness, not rights. It emphasizes honor, not equality. A Christian's concern is what is owed to the other, not what is owed to himself.”

The world has taken a subjective phrase and moved it to the objective -- "You do YOU." Today Amy looks at ways that this phrase has affected us culturally and how it is antithetical to the Gospel.

We love to control things and, in the end, it likely comes down to our understanding of authority and whether we are truly submitted to God and His Word. Today we will look at how phrases like "I write my own story" or "I am the architect of my destiny" measure up against the truth of God's Word.

The world says "Love is love" but without a source of truth in their definition, there has been a domino effect on culture and marriage. Today Amy looks at what the Bible says love actually is and why marriage is actually a really big deal.

References:
“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.” 1 Corinthians 13:4–7

Part of our bite-sized encouragement from the Word series.  Today Amy talks about a Biblical take on complaining.

Verses:
Philippians 4:6-7 

“do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

I Thessalonians 5:18

“give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
