A devotional study where we take a look at the circumstances leading up to the birth of Jacob and Esau, and how early choices on the parts of both parents, ended up playing a significant role in how things ultimately turn out in both men's lives.  Let's take a look at the backstory that we rarely hear discussed.

Genesis 25:23 KJV
And the LORD said unto her, “Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.”

The title of this quarter's theme is: The God of Love and Justice

For the next 13 weeks (January to March 2025), we will study the tension between two of God’s attributes that most people have a hard time reconciling: God’s Justice and God’s Love.  This is key for us to understand, especially in a world of sin and misery, where we need to be able to preach the gospel with urgency.

A devotional study where we look at an example of how faith works, and why a childlike attitude is so pleasing to God.  Without faith, it is just impossible to please Him...

Luke 17:6 KJV
And the Lord said, “If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.”

A devotional study about the apparent complexity of salvation as compared to sin and wickedness.  Is righteousness / right doing all that complex? Is salvation harder to understand and obtain that wickedness?  We will take a look at some differences between how one is introduced to the kingdom of God vs the kingdom of Satan.

Micah 6:8 KJV
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

A devotional study about the difference between complaining directly to God about things in our lives that are disturbing or frustrating us, vs murmuring to others about how God is dealing with you.  There is a subtle, but very important difference, as we will see with some Bible story references.

Numbers 14:26-27 KJV
And the LORD spake unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying, “How long shall I bear with this evil congregation, which murmur against Me? I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel, which they murmur against Me.”
