A look at 2 Tim. 4:1-4

Covetousness and materialism... Two words that encompass almost every idol we've discussed this far. Today we we wrap up our sermon series with the topic of "Becoming UnbrIDOLed" from the idolatry of stuff and things.

Work... It's a good thing, right? But does it hold a position in your life that it's not intended for? Today we discuss "Becoming UnbrIDOLed" from the idolatry of work.

Paul warns Timothy of the difficult times we face in the "last days." What are these "last days," what are the warnings we're given in reference to these difficult times, and how can we overcome these times?

When patriotism for an earthly nation trumps your heavenly citizenship, it's time to evaluate whether you need to become UnbrIDOLed from American Idols (and no, we're not talking about Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, etc.)

How does Paul's illustration of the four vessels in 2 Tim. 2:20-26 teach us how we can be "useful to the master?"

We begin a new series for the month of October titled, "Becoming UnbeIDOLed."

Removing the bridle of idolatry in our lives, focusing more on the Creator, than the created.

Do you struggle with a "me first" attitude? Perhaps it's something you don't realize that's connected with your focus on God's Kingdom. It is a dangerous mindset for anyone who is a disciple of Christ.

A brief remembrance and prayer for our brethren in Antioch, TN who were attacked on this day, followed by the second part of our lesson on the dangerous "Me First" attitude many people have. We look at Christ's example of putting others first.

NOTE: After this message was recorded, new details emerged about the woman who was fatally shot in Antioch, TN. Her name is Melanie Crow Smith, Crow being her maiden name. She was originally reported to have been a single mother of two, but media later reported that she was in fact married.
