The Well

Let me ask you, what are your priorities in life? The top five or six things that are especially important to you? Today, Ron takes us once again to the book of Haggai, when God sends the prophet to Israel to help put their priorities back in order.  His message was relevant then, and it’s still relevant now. Stay right here as Ron continues his teaching series, “The Ultimate Road Trip Through The Bible: The Minor Prophets.” 

We might agree God is in control, but do we truly trust Him with our own lives? As the Good Shepherd, He invites us to finally rest in His care. In this message from Psalm 23, Pastor Lutzer considers four lessons for needy sheep like us. Let's ask ourselves: "Is He 'my' shepherd?"

In one sense, it can be good to see this person or that person each Sunday, and we pass along a hearty “Hello!” But is there more going on when this takes place? Our study digs below the greetings to the larger purpose behind them.

1 Cor 16:5-24

Are we giving God your best or our leftovers? Malachi 1 exposes the hollow deception of bringing just enough to keep God off our backs. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller describes the high stakes of giving our first-fruits. God would rather shut the Temple doors than accept a cheap charade. 

This is part two of the sermon, "Withholding Worship."

As human beings, we are changing and declining daily; our world itself is changing and will not last. But against that rather depressing backdrop, the Psalmist proclaims the glorious truth that God himself does not change. The Lord is the Unchanging One. All else will change and decay and much will disappear. But the eternal God does not.
