As we continue a series on Agur’s wise words in Prov. 30, we turn to things that bring wonder and how wonder can lead us to God (or away from Him without the proper “translation”).
As we move to the New Testament, we look at the story of Felix. He invites conversation with Paul, yet with significant barriers he erects. How do we do the same?
Blessed are the merciful—it sounds really good when we are the ones receiving mercy. That call suddenly sounds a lot worse when we’re the ones called to show mercy. Jesus calls us to that mercy, against our natural inclination for payback.
This week, we turn to Hezekiah’s son Manasseh and the implications of generations of sin. How does our own sin affect us, those around us and those who come after us?
Mothers mourn over children falling away, over ones they’ve outlived, over the ache of children they never had. That grief feels heavy for Mother’s Day, yet Jesus declares in Matthew 5:4, “Blessed are those who mourn.” How is it blessed to mourn?
Continuing our series Bad Attitudes, we turn to a story about two of Aaron’s sons and their reckless approach before God… and how we can fall into the same traps.
Join us as Jim Krenning takes us through Psalms 7-9 in our new reading plan through the Psalms this year, “Songs for Our Temple.”
The common assumption is that God is unjustified when dealing with rebellion. However, during our times of wandering none of us are really as innocent as we would like to think and our sins are a bigger deal than we think. What do we do with this reality check? Check out this episode to find out how God shapes our hearts during sin.
What does it mean to have a lying tongue? Why does the Proverb distinguish it from bearing false witness? Join Pastor Tim as we continue our series on Six Poisons from Proverbs 6.
As Pastor Tim begins our new series on the six poisons listed in Proverbs 6:16-19, we turn to one that often leads to the others: pride.
