The Well

It is not money, but the love of money, that is the root of all kinds of evil. Well, for the past two weeks, Ron has taken us on a journey through the first six of the seven deadly sins. Pride. Anger. Lust. Laziness. Gluttony. Envy. Today, we come to the seventh and final one on the list, greed. God’s Word has much to say about this dangerous vice, and the corresponding virtue that we can use to defeat it. Ron takes us there next, as he moves ahead in his teaching series, Undefeated: Overcoming the Deadly Sins That Drag You Down.”

The King of the universe is also your Father. Ephesians 3 reveals that Christ has torn down every barrier to the throne of grace. Pastor Philip Miller reveals why you have bold, confident access to God and how that changes your prayer life. Discover why a child can wake the President at 2:00 AM for a drink.

Our lives are filled with clamor and noise, and we often prefer it that way. But when we draw near to God in the silence, all that remains is the still, small voice of God. In this message from Psalm 62, Pastor Lutzer answers key questions for waiting in silence before the Lord. Imagine how silence in His presence would transform our anxious hearts.

“What’s the answer?” “The answer is the Gospel!” Has that exchange ever left you quietly or perhaps not so quietly wondering? Really? Is that it? We’re digging for profound truth in our study today.

1 Cor 2:6-16

Abraham’s decision to buy a parcel of land in the promised land to bury Sarah affirms his trust in the Lord’s promise that this land will be his and his children’s. Yet, the fact that Sarah dies there as a sojourner and the fact that so much of the covenant promise has yet to be fulfilled acts as a stark reminder that God’s people are sojourners on this earth, awaiting the fulfilment of all God’s promises in the land yet to come. Do we live in this world as sojourners, trusting in the promises of a homeland above?

In a secular, post-Christian society like the one we find ourselves living in, the Ten Commandments aren’t exactly popular. Cries to “live your own truth” threaten to drown out the absolute truth of God’s law. But how can we expect to love each other well without parameters for what that actually looks like in practice? Today, Pastor J.D. shows us how the Ten Commandments are designed to help us flourish, experiencing God’s creation as it was truly intended to be. True freedom, it turns out, isn’t found in the absence of God’s law, but in the embracing of it.
