The Well

Today, Mark Gregston, Wayne Shepherd and Courtney Lafleur discuss how parents of teens with ADHD may need to adjust expectations and recognize that their teen may struggle with focus, impulsivity, follow-through and relational depth — not because they don’t care, but because their brain works differently. Shorter conversations, built-in breaks, clear structure and consistent reminders can reduce frustration and help teens succeed at school, home and relationships. Most importantly, parents are urged to affirm their teen’s strengths and outside-the-box thinking, while adapting their parenting approach to meet their teen’s unique needs.

When we finish praying the sinner’s prayer, and become a child of God, it would be great if all our questions are immediately answered, all our doubts are suddenly dispelled and the gaps in our understanding are instantly filled in. But coming to know God and His plan for our lives is part of the privilege and challenge of living the Christian life. And today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie points out how we should feel free to approach God for help in sharpening our understanding and deepening our faith.

There's a huge tension between God's sovereignty and our free will. Join Chip as he wrestles with this tension and finds answers in Philippians, Chapter 2, to the question: How do we "work out" what God has already "worked in"?

Two critical questions

1. What can we expect from God?
2. What does God expect from us?

Church history: Two views concerning God’s expectations

• J. CALVIN
• J. ARMINUS

God’s Word rejects both extremes and hold God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility in “biblical tension” and balance.

• Man’s responsibility -Philippians 2:12
• God’s sovereignty -Philippians 2:13

How do we “work out” what God has “worked in”?

• The command: Be a GRATEFUL servant! -Philippians 2:14
• The purpose: Be a GODLY servant! -Philippians 2:15a
• The result: Be a BOLD servant! -Philippians 2:15b-16a
• The motive: Be a JOYFUL servant! -Philippians 16b-18

A life of substance will outlast any surface-level fixes or cosmetics. Ephesians 4 reveals the dramatic shift from deathly rags to a new identity. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller decodes our spiritual wardrobe change. It's time we stopped rationalizing our rags as royalty—after all, self-delusion even makes 90% of us believe we're above-average drivers.

This is part two of the sermon, "New Life."
