We are obsessed with speed. We want what we want - and we want it now! Are we that way with God, too? Are we even impatient with our Heavenly Father who knows what is best for us? In this message, Pastor Patrick Lander continues the story of Moses and his impatience with God's plan.

We often wonder "why?" We search to find a reason, meaning or purpose in difficult circumstances, unjust decisions, and unreasonable people. When there are no good answers, it forces a difficult decision: Will you trust God despite circumstances?

There is a final level of stewardship that we don't often see in America - sacrifice. What does it mean to sacrifice?

Sometimes, Christians mistake obedience for generosity. If you tithe, you are simply being obedient to what the Bible teaches. But being generous takes you to the next step!

Stewardship acknowledges: everything I have comes from God. What is the starting point of stewardship? What must we do first if we want to be good stewards of what God has given us?

Jesus taught a lot about money and stewardship. 15% of Jesus' teaching was on the subject of money and our possessions, more than all His teachings on Heaven and Hell combined. He spent so much time on the subject because He knew that the whole area of money and finances is a difficult area for people to obey God. There are some powerful Kingdom principles about money that can and will alter your life and future.

If you are a Christian, you are a square peg. You will never quite fit with society because you live by a different set of values. No matter how hard you try, you won't ever completely fit - and you're not supposed to. But, what does that look like? How do you live that out?

Real love - putting others first - caring about others - sacrificing your own interests, opinions and agendas for the sake of others - is a counter-culture way to live. What does God say about love in the Book of First John? It's one of the hardest, most convicting passages in the entire Bible.

Our world is obsessed with love and the search for love. Songs, TV shows, books, and movies have covered the topic over and over. We were designed by God for relationship, and we long for it. But so many people look in the wrong places.

Sin isolates you. But the good news is, even in that isolation of sin, Jesus sees you. He does more than just see you. He comes to your aid. In this message, Pastor Patrick Lander continues our look at the book of First John.
