Brother Jacob uses the examples of Jehoram and Jesus, as examples showing the drastic impact we can make in a few years, Jehoram made change for the worst, and Jesus for the better. As we plan the next few years of our lives, we must make God and His church our priority.

Even though God has complete control, He allows us to have free will, and wants us to choose to come to Him and obey Him.

Brother Curtis gives a sermon on the parable of the pounds, from which we can learn the importance of using the blessings given to us by God, in order to further his will.

Brother Steve gives a sermon the parable of the 10 virgins. From this parable we can learn about the importance of being prepared for Jesus return, as we don't know when it will be.

We are called to follow Jesus. Following Jesus is not just learning about Jesus, but it is a call to action to dedicate our lives to following his example.

God values us and sacrificed his son for us. Our purpose comes from Him, and we should commit our lives and sacrifice for him.

Being a Christian means being part of the church family. We are not able to complete our Christian walks without our fellow Christians.

Our brothers and sisters in Christ provide us accountability, which we should embrace as it can keep us from straying from God. It is important that we embrace this form of accountability, insuring that we stay right with God, or we will be held accountable for all of our sins in the judgement.

A stronghold is where we protect what we value most. We often form attachments to things and we will serve these things, which consume our lives and prevent us from serving God. Through Jesus, we are able to become new people and rid ourselves of our attachments and addictions to the things that separate us from God.

We often view ourselves and others through our own moral standards, judging certain sins to be worse than others, but God's standard holds all sins as equal. We are all sinners, and we cannot be redeemed by our own actions, but by the blood of Jesus Christ.
