When Jesus asks "Who do you say I am?" He's asking a personal question that requires a personal answer. While the answer to this question has implications on our eternity, who we say Jesus is should affect our present day. Speaker: Joe Buitrago

When Jesus asks the question "Why are you weeping?" He doesn't rebuke our tears. Jesus is there with us in our grief. Speaker: Josh Hawley

The only one actually qualified to condemn someone is the sinless Jesus, yet He offers transformation instead. Grace is radical and transformative and should inform the way we view ourselves and others.  Speaker: Jordan Hogue

The Bible does not promise the complete elimination of worry, but it does invite us to bring our worries and anxieties to God. When Jesus asks the question "Why do you worry?" He shows us how to deal with worry in lifegiving ways.  Speaker: Josh Hawley

Jesus asks Peter "Do you love me?" three times, redeeming the three times that Peter denied Jesus. Jesus asks a simple and searching question to restore relationship and purpose.   Speaker: Chris Schultz

Why are questions important in the Jewish context? This summer we are examing why Jesus asked what he asked, and what it revealed about the people and situations around him. We start by looking at the questions from Jesus' childhood: "Why is it that you were looking for me?" and "Did you not know that I had to be in My Father’s house?" Speaker: Brad Bell

Why did Jesus institute the practices of communion and baptism? The ordinances of the church are expressions of identity and testimony in remembrance of the unifying work of Jesus.  Speaker: Mike Cirricione

Paul's closing exhortation is for Timothy to guard the truth he has been entrusted with. The Bible is our authority, and just like Timothy, we need to guard what has been entrusted to us, even in a post-modern society. Speaker: Brad Bell

Wealth is relative, and we are called to steward whatever God has given us well. Let us fix our hope on God who richly supplies, and rethink what it means to be rich in good works.  Speaker: Brad Bell

Paul warns Timothy against what is still prevalent today: the root issue of false teachers is that they use God and the Church for personal gain. Christ did not come to make our lives better; He came to set us free from the mastery of sin.  Speaker: Mike Slayden
