When we become born again believers in Christ God sends His Spirit to dwell within each and every one of us. As we go about our lives from this point forward, it's crucial that we look to the guidance of The Spirit. But how do we know the what when and how of what this looks like? In today's message, Pastor Tom reflects on the outpouring of God's Spirit on the early Church during the feast of Pentecost. In our study, we learn that while we might not always know exactly when or how, we can always trust in God's Spirit.

Whether we're fresh out of the baptismal or we've been walking with The Lord for years, each of us can waiver from time to time. From losing focus in ministry or following our own lead rather than The Spirit, it's important that we self reflect regularly. In today's message, Pastor Tom encourages us to ask ourselves where it is that we think The Lord is leading us. In our study, we learn how God often intervenes in our lives to better guide us and set us back on the right path. Has God been intervening in your life lately?

The idea of an all powerful, all knowing, and all present God can be rather intimidating if we take the time to think about it. In fact, what's to keep us from thinking that God would want to have anything to do with us if He knows the beginning from the end? In today's message, Pastor Tom reflects on the intimate nature of God who seeks to grow in relationship with us. In our study, we learn that just because God knows everything about us, doesn't mean He won't engage with us through inquiry or otherwise.

Whenever we take on new roles or tasks in and outside of the Church, we can easily become distracted and lose focus. Whether it's a new obstacle to overcome, a different path of ministry, or even a new career, we sometimes put Jesus on hold. In today's message, Pastor Tom reminds us of the importance of always putting Christ as the forefront of each venture in life. In our study we learn that more often than not, when we put Christ on the back burner, we're sure to go astray from God's purpose.

As many of us have experienced, spiritual victories can be rather exhausting and wear us out more often than not. Not only is the journey leading up to the victory exhausting, but we're also under constant attack by our enemy both before and after. In today's message, Pastor Tom reminds us to lean on The Lord for our strength and courage as we face life's trials. In our study, we learn that by yoking ourselves to Jesus, we're sure to experience victory after victory at the pace God intends for us.

Whenever a predator seeks out to target its next victim it typically goes for an isolated or even damaged prey. When it comes to spiritual warfare, so too does our enemy seek to go after those that have been separated from the Body of Christ. In today's message, Pastor Tom teaches us the danger of isolation and distance from both the Word of God, and His people. In our study, we learn how our greatest defense against such attacks come from none other than fellowship and taking in The Word.

Whether we've followed The Lord for years or our faith is recent, many of us are familiar with the term “backslide.” While some of us might take backsliding for granted, it can also be one of our greatest fears as Christians. In today's message, Pastor Tom reflects on this tragic event that can take place in our lives in many shapes and forms. In our study, we learn that one of the biggest dangers of backsliding is just how subtle and slow the process of drifting away from The Lord can be.

Forgiveness can be one of the most challenging obstacles to our growth as disciples of Christ. Whether we're stubborn or we've suffered a great offense, unforgiveness can be likened to a slow and deadly poison. In today's message, Pastor Tom reminds us that it's because we've been forgiven the debt of our sins, we too must forgive others. In our study, we learn that by the power of God's Spirit within us, we have no reason not to be able to forgive others. Is there someone in your life who you've yet to forgive?
