Proverbs 3:5

Trust is a delicate topic. How much do we trust the Lord? Most of us would probably say we trust Him to a great degree. But do we follow the Bible's guidance in trusting Him? Do we trust him with EVERYthing or just the BIG things? 

Ephesians 6: 10-12

No one really likes the image of war. War never changes. Yet, we are all fighting battles on a daily basis in a massive conflict that spans across generations and continents. Today I want to discuss how we can approach these spiritual battles we find ourselves in.  

John 3: 16-18

One of the most popular verses in the Bible begins like this "For God so loved the world..." What a powerful statement. God's love for us is the deepest, purest example of love we could ever hope to see. Today we will discuss this love and we will do what some people never do....keep reading! This passage has more to offer than just a perfect example of love; we can also find information regarding salvation here. 

Philippians 4: 7

Do we have peace in ours lives? There is snow on the ground this morning in my city and I'm always struck by how peaceful it is when it snows. Do we have that kind of peace in our lives? Can we count on a peaceful day when we need one? Today I want to discuss a peace that passes all understanding. 

Galatians 6: 10

We have discussed previously the difference between doing good and doing well. Today I want to discuss the doing good part: are we doing good? Who are we doing good things for? The Bible has clear and exact instructions on doing good and I thought them especially relevant in the holiday season. 

Romans 5: 6-9

Christ died for you. Christ died for everyone, regardless of how they act. That... is a very powerful statement. 

1 John 2: 10-11

Think about it for a second: do you love your brother/sister in Christ? Do your actions support your answer? We are called to love our brothers and sisters, but do we actually fulfill this command? It is imperative that we do. 

Titus 2: 11-12

It's challenging to live a healthy Christian life in the modern world. We are surrounded on all sides by negative influences and instructions. I recently read a passage I think sums up some practical steps we can take to live better Christian lives while we walk through this world, and we will discuss that passage today. 

Matthew 23: 11-12

The gift giving season is upon us! We all have the ability to give something: maybe it is a financial gift, a gift of time, a gift a talents or just the gift of our comfort and presence. But when we do give out these gifts we have to make sure we do it in the way the Bible instructs us. Today's passage deals with being a servant, but it also deals with being humble. 

Psalms 6: 6-10

Depression is nasty. I'm not talking about feeling sad one day or down in the dumps; I'm talking real clinical depression. Some of us have been through that at one point in our lives. Some people may be dealing with it currently or know someone who is depressed. The Bible has a lot of practical advice about dealing with depression and today I want to look at one of the most prominent figures and how he dealt with depression.
