Continuing in our "Wrong Way Religions" series, Rob introduces us to the religion of the Jehovah's Witnesses and explains where their understanding and interpretation of God's word falls short and how we should respond to someone of that faith.

On the anniversary of 9/11 there is so much to reflect on because so much has changed. However, there is still so much that is still the same.

Moses made several trips up the Holy Mountain of Sinai to commune with God. It so radically changed him the Word says that "rays of light shot out from his face" (Exodus 34:29).

That's pretty radical. That's a genuine "God Encounter." But, Moses never stayed on the mountain. Moses went up the mountain to commune with God but he always came back down to communicate God's truth to the people. Moses balanced his life between the mountaintop and the market place.

Our culture often times downplays the importance of fatherhood, but scripture clearly indicates the necessity of the male role in the life of children. In this message Pastor Jack explains this point in depth and explains how godliness has become a well crafted art.

Richard Blain was a dedicated husband, father, friend and follower of Jesus. He was also a faithful member of First Baptist Church of Thousand Oaks and he will forever be missed.

The Psalms give us a broad pattern for preaching: beginning with the ugly realities of life and moving to glorious promises of God. Psalm 22 is a good example. It begins with the ultimate cry of despair--repeated on the cross by the Lord, in fact--but ends with "all the ends of the earth turning to the Lord" (vss 27-31).

Ichabod has been stamped upon our nation. We have lost the glory, or weight of God's Providence upon our endeavors. Our money says, "Annuit Coeptis, or He has favored our endeavors," but our deplorable morals says something much different. In this message Pastor Jack explains this concept in-depth and how our lives should be lived differently.

I think of some maximum men and women who have changed the world. Men like Ghandi and Reagan. Women like Mother Teresa. Maximum disciples like the Apostle Paul, Charles Spurgeon, John Wesley, and of course, Billy Graham have made a huge contribution to our world.

They were "maximum" men and women--nothing "moderate" about their passions and pursuits.

I think of what the Apostle Paul said in this regard, "Whatever you do, do it as if you are doing it for the Lord, Himself" (Col.3:23). Certainly the Lord deserves nothing but excellence in our service--the maximum output of our devotion.
