In our passage (Malachi 2:17-3:5) the people of God, while suffering from half-heartedness and lax worship, are accusing God of approving of evil! They cry out to God and demand that justice be done. God’s response is that justice and judgment are coming…not only for the evil doer but for the people of God.

In Malachi’s day, the people of God were not only disrespecting God’s commands regarding worship but they also were disregarding His instructions regarding marriage. In our passage today, God calls His people to respect and keep their marriage vows.

Description: In Malachi’s day, the people and priests of God had grown lax and half-hearted in their worship and walk with God. What is worship that is acceptable to God? What is at the heart of it? Our study this week will point us to the answer.

In the Book of Malachi, God calls His people back to Himself. They were questioning God's love for them because of their circumstances. Their worship had grown cold and they were going through the motions. In the opening verses God reminds His people how He has loved them.

In John chapter ten Jesus describes Himself as the good shepherd. How is Jesus the good shepherd? What does that mean for us here and now? Join us this Sunday @ 10:30am ET as we continue our Unwrapping the Names of Jesus message series!

This second Sunday of Advent we are looking at Jesus as the Word of God and what that title means for us now.

This Sunday is the first Sunday of Advent and the first of our new message series "Unwrapping the Names of Jesus". Each Sunday during Advent we will look at Bible passages that point us to one of the names used to describe Jesus our Savior. This week we will examine passages that tells us that Jesus is the light of the world.

God calls believers to live a lifestyle of giving thanks and to have an attitude of gratitude. This message will give us some practical ways to move beyond giving thanks on just one day in November.

Our final metaphor we will explore for the church of God is the church as the family of God. When we are born again, we are adopted into the family of God. What does this mean for us as a local church? What does this mean for us as individuals in this diverse group of believers? We will explore what God’s Word has to say about this and more related to the church as the family of God.
