God is Faithful

God is faithful, but the only way to experience His faithfulness is to believe in Him. And true faith is only expressed when we obey Him.

Luke: The Wisdom of Jesus, Part 7

The Persistent Widow

When we are tested by our inability, we can be tempted to lose heart and neglect prayer. In those times, Jesus wants us to be assured that God’s relationship with us is personal, his justice is sure, and he will come for all who seek him.

New Life: A Series in Colossians, Part 1

What is God Doing?

Paul saw what God was doing in the Colossian church. Through Jesus, God made them holy before him and adopted them into his household. Their hope in heaven fueled their faith in Christ and love for all the saints by the power of the gospel.

Luke: The Power and Preaching of Jesus, Part 13

Sower and Soils

The question rising from the book of Luke, and now posed by the Parable of the Sower, is this: How are you responding to Jesus?

Luke: The Power and Preaching of Jesus, Part 1

Familiarity with Jesus

Familiarity can blind us to who a person is. The people in Jesus’ hometown of Nazareth were skeptical of his claims and felt entitled to his power. Therefore, they missed the opportunity to humbly hear his message and respond in faith.

God’s Free Children

We are God’s free children. And as such, we should not rely on our flesh but rely on the promise and power of God.

Galatians: No Other Gospel, Part 9

A Personal Appeal

Paul makes a personal, fatherly, and pastoral appeal for the true gospel with three questions: 1) How can you turn back? 2) What became of the blessing you felt? and 3) Have I become your enemy by telling you the truth?

Galatians: No Other Gospel, Part 5

Confrontation and Justification

Paul would not budge on his conviction that justification is by faith in Christ and not works of the law. This conviction, and his willingness even to confront Peter over it, protected the purpose of the death of Christ and the gospel itself.

Perfect Peace, Part 1

The Coming King

Who will you trust? To whom will you ultimately look for help in your time of need? Past mercies, present promises, and future hope can help us trust in the Lord today.

A Test of Trust

In Isaiah 7, God invited Israel’s King Ahaz to trust him. Ahaz failed the test of trust. God also invites us to trust him. Will we pass the test?

Faith Under Fire

Faith isn’t believing God will keep you from fire. It’s believing he will be with you in it.

The Book of Ruth, Part 3

Seeking Rest for Ruth

Is your heart at rest? Is it well with your soul? We can learn how to find rest for our own lives in Ruth's story. Ruth needs to find a redeemer to find rest. By finding Boaz, she gets closer to finding the ultimate rest she needs in Jesus.

The Book of Ruth, Part 2

Grace at the Bottom of the Barrel

When Ruth and Naomi arrive in Bethlehem, they have the Lord, each other, and not much else. But unbeknownst to them, the Lord is orchestrating circumstances of their ordinary lives to bring them extraordinary grace.

The Book of Ruth, Part 1

Rock Bottom Faith

The power of God is delivered by the invisible arm of providence. God uses the ordinary means of his providence to bring extraordinary grace to his people.

The Gospel of John: So That You May Believe, Part 8

You Must Be Born Again

Jesus Trains His Disciples

Throughout this passage, Jesus is training his disciples. Even though his disciples don’t understand, Jesus still instructs them, and he doesn’t give up on them.

Matthew: The Life and Words of Jesus, Part 44

The Heart that Honors God

The heart that honors God keeps traditions in their right place and avoids hypocrisy, trusting in God alone for righteousness.

Matthew: The Life and Words of Jesus, Part 29

Jesus Christ, Compassionate Lord

Faith is like a lifeline thrown out to someone who’s fallen overboard. The one on the saving end of the line is Jesus. Your faith is what connects you to him.

Stepping Away from the Ledge

Standing on top of the temple, the devil offered Jesus the opportunity to test his Father's love and power, to be assured of his future. Instead, Jesus entrusted himself to God whose ability to rescue was proven by the resurrection from the dead.
