Isaac Bennett teaches on Christ being our foundation, from 1 Corinthians 3

Daniel Brown teaches about the fear of the Lord and seeking His help amid times of crisis. 1 Timothy 5:20

Isaac Bennett looks at Jesus' pastoral letter to the church of Laodicea.

All true strength is derived from the Lord. Human strength/wisdom gets in the way of the Spirit. Strength is what enables one to accomplish intention and will. What should be the aspiration of every Christian? To be conformed to the image of His Son (Rom. 8:29) so he may participate in God’s glorious redemptive plan.

This is a great paradox of faith: weakness makes way for strength. The kingdom of God goes forth through the weakest of these. The degree to which we desire to partner with Jesus is commensurate to human weakness and humiliation.

Tracey Bickle shares on walking through disappointment.

We are priests before God. Jesus Christ is the High priest. His priestly business was to “give His life as a ransom for many.” (Mt. 20:28) Our priestly business is present our bodies as a living sacrifice. The sacrifice of the Cross removes our guilt before the Father. Our sacrifice of thanksgiving and praise doesn’t make peace, but proceeds from peace. It works to declare and exalt the sovereignty, beauty, and awe of God.

The Lord is committed to shaking all things; He is the Author of the quake and storm. We must anticipate, be clear when it comes, and embrace and respond when it does. These shakings come from God. He has an affinity for removing our misplaced affections and confidence.

Christmas Eve message from Isaac Bennett

The birth of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, set something into motion regarding peace. One aspect has been secured, and there are more to come. The biblical pattern seems to follow that

The gospel uniquely positions the Christian to go through difficulty and trouble with the capacity to rejoice and hope.
