As Christian people, we have a big task on our hands. We have standards to live up to within and without the church. What does that look like?

Are small groups really that important? Isn’t this just like extra credit? Why would I add more to my already full plate?

Paul said, "you say the god is unknown, but I’m going to proclaim Him to you. I will make Him known to you. Because He is knowable. In the person of Jesus Christ, God became flesh and blood so that we could know Him."

We have been given the ministry of reconciliation – restoring sinners, not celebrating their sin. When a sinner repents, God’s forgiveness is already there. We rejoice and walk with them.

Peter saw what he wanted and worked up the courage to get out of the boat. So the question is, what’s your boat?

Jesus tell us, “You believe in God; believe also in me.” Can you do that? Can you believe in God? Can you believe in Jesus?

Do you feel that you can speak freely with God? Does “unreserved” describe your style of prayer? Do you feel bold enough to say, “God, this isn’t working?”

There are moments in our life that don’t seem fair. Someone has done us wrong and we’d like to even the scales of justice a bit. In his old age, David penned Psalm 37.

What is the Wonderwall in your life? What do you stake your dreams on?

When you are hard pressed – what do you lean on? Who is standing beside you? Who will “Stand by me” when you are in the fight?
