1 Thessalonians 5:12-28

The Will of God

As Apostle Paul closes out 1 Thessalonians he drills down on what God’s will is for each of our lives. And what we learn is that first and foremost, His Will is not about geography, it’s not about where He wants us, but who He wants us to be. More specific, His will is about who He wants us to be as we live out our faith among His people. Please join us as we finish chapter five of 1 Thessalonians, looking at family matters in the household of God.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-11

When They Say Peace and Safety

Our study in 1 Thessalonians brings us to an interesting phrase, “When they say Peace and Safety sudden destruction will come upon them." What that phrase leads us to is a study of two of the most overlooked characters in the Book of the Revelation. These two characters will be responsible for bringing much pain upon a Christ rejecting World. Join us in our study of 1 Thessalonians chapter 5, as we explore what’s behind this well-known phrase “Peace and Safety."

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

Our Great Hope

The Church in ancient Thessalonica had a twisted view of death. They were under the misguided thought that there was some advantage to living until the return of Christ and that somehow if one died before the return of Christ they would be disadvantaged in some way. Join us in 1 Thessalonians 4 as the Apostle Paul gives us great and comforting words concerning loved ones who have gone on to be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4:1-12

Three Steps Towards Understanding the Will of God.

We tend to think of the will of God as being “locative”, God wants us “somewhere”, and we’re not sure where “somewhere” is. But what seems to unfold in scripture is that the will of God first and foremost has to do with character. That we are to focus on “what” God wants us to be (which is Christ like), and let Him focus on getting us to “where” He wants us to be in His time. Join us in chapter four of Thessalonians as the Apostle Paul lays out directions to finding God’s will.

1 Thessalonians 3

Moving Forward in the Face of Opposition

The Church in ancient Thessalonica was both successful and persecuted. The Apostle Paul had received word that the church was enduring tribulation. In the face of disappointment and hardship it’s easy to lose perspective and begin to believe lies that are being whispered in your ears, that God doesn’t love, that God is mad at you, or that perhaps you’re not even a Christian at all. Join us as 1 Thessalonians chapter 3 gives us a proper perspective of living life during difficult times.

1 Thessalonians 2:13-20

The Power of the Word of God

In the second half of 1 Thessalonians chapter two we look at how God has kept His Word from being corrupted and how His Word can work effectively in our lives. The Church of Thessalonica was greatly used of God in large part because of the relationship they had with God’s Word. Join us as we discover what they did “with” the Word and what the Word did “in” the Thessalonians.

1 Thessalonians 2:1-12

Biblical Description of a Leader

Jesus made it clear that as time moves forward and the closer we get to the end that there will be an increase in the number of false leaders among His people. What makes the opening verses of 1 Thessalonians chapter two so important, is we are given a description of what a leader should be. The only reason why any of us will be deceived by a false leader is because we did not heed what the Lord has warned us about in His Word. Join us in 1 Thessalonians two as we look at Biblical leadership.

1 Thessalonians 1:1-10

The Model Church

Beginning our study of First Thessalonians, we quickly see that the church in Thessalonica was a model church. The church was young and experiencing tribulation, yet they were sounding out the Gospel to the entire region. Chapter one reveals what their success was rooted in. They succeeded not because they had money or marketing skills, but because they were a receiving, turning, serving, and waiting church. Join as we take a close look at what causes a church to be succes

Colossians 4:7-16

Called to be faithful friends

As we close out our study in the book of Colossians the Apostle Paul gives us a glimpse into the social lives of the early church believers. What we discover is that they experienced deep and meaningful friendships. In the American church we gather through song and sermon to make a connection to God. But often times what's missing is a connection with each other. God works through His church, therefore if we are to be used by Him it’s necessary to be connected in a meaningful way to His Church. Join us as we finish the book of Colossians learning what being a faithful friend looks like.

Colossians 4:2-6

Continue in Prayer | Gracious Speech

Colossians chapter four continues with some incredibly practical advice and wisdom on how we are to live. In the early verses of this chapter, Paul helps us understand how we talk to God in prayer and how we are to talk to others about God. Join us for some practical and encouraging ways that we are to let these simple commandments reign in our life.

Colossians 3:17 - 4:1

Practical Spirituality

In the third chapter of Colossians the Apostle Paul tells us that we are called to respond to what God has done for us by His grace. And that response is to seek to glorify God in our everyday lives. True spirituality is not being weird or neurotic, but rather it’s bringing the lordship of Christ into our marriages, the raising of our children, and into the workplace. Join us in our study of Colossians chapter three as we focus on practical spirituality.

Colossians 3:1-16

How to die with the least amount of regrets?

It’s a reality of life that each of us at some point in the future will breathe our last. Some of us will look back with sorrow as we realize how little effect our lives had. Where the Apostle Paul takes us in our study of Colossians, is to give us four commands that when followed will lead us to a life that will count for eternity. Join us as we begin chapter 3 to learn how to make your life all that God desires it to be.

Colossians 2:13-23

Set Free or Bound by Doubt

The Apostle Paul is guiding the church in Colosse through the difficult problem of dealing with false teachers. Often a tactic of the false teacher is to cause a person to become insecure in their relationship with Christ, so that the insecure person becomes more dependent on the false teacher. Our great defense is understanding what Christianity is. Legalistic religion is man reaching to God, trying to justify himself by keeping a list of rules. Christianity is God reaching down to man in love through Christ. Please join us in the second half of Colossians chapter 2 as we’re taught what Christianity is all about.

Colossians 2:1-12

What Does a Mature Christian Look Like?

Our best defense against falling into deception is to become mature followers of Christ. But there are all kinds of ideas on what a mature Christian is, from the way one dresses, to what one does for entertainment. But thankfully we aren’t left guessing, because Paul in Colossians chapter two begins the chapter by describing what maturity in the believer looks like.

Colossians 1:21-29

Don't Move Away from the Gospel

In the book of Colossians, we are dealing with a church that is under siege from outside forces seeking to move the church away from simple faith in Christ. As we close out our study in chapter one, Paul reminds us once again of who we were and what Christ by His grace has accomplished for us. He refreshes the memory of the Colossians that they have the very best, so why would they move away from it?

The Jesus Mindset

The Jesus Mindset

Our mindset, or attitude, impacts our relationships. Most people fluctuate between an inward mindset (pleasing self) and an outward mindset (pleasing others). But by the grace of God, we have been given the mind of Christ, a new attitude that reflects His presence in our lives. This message examines three aspects of Jesus' mindset as described by the Apostle Paul in Phil. 2:1-13.

Colossians 1:1-14

What Should We Pray For?

The Apostle Paul was excited about was happening in the ancient city of Colossae. He wanted to see the good things that God was doing in and through His people to continue, and so to that end he prays for them. Often, we struggle to know what to pray for when we think about those we care about. Paul offered up four request for those that were on his heart. These same four requests are needed in the lives of believers today. Join us as we start a new verse by verse study in the book of Colossians to discover how to better pray for those that we care about.

Colossians 1:15-20

Prominent or Preeminent

Every false teacher seeks to make Jesus less than who He is. Many false faiths give Jesus a prominent position. Prominent means, “leading, important, or well-known." But where the Apostle Paul takes us in Colossians Chapter 1, is Jesus is to be “PREEMINENT” which means, “above or before others; superior; to be first, hold the first place." Join us in our study of Colossians Chapter 1 to see why Christ is far more than just prominent.

Philippians 4:10-23

Giving in shark infested waters

As we close out our study in Philippians the Apostle brings up the subject of giving. Often as Christians we’re conflicted because on the one hand we know we should give but on the other hand we know there are many who say they are of God and are not and should therefore not be supported. As the Apostle Paul told us earlier, there are many in the church whose god is their own belly. Join us in our study of the fourth chapter of Philippians, as the Apostle shares with us some guidelines for giving.

America's Christian Heritage

America's Christian Heritage

America is a nation that is stirred up. We take offense, we jump ugly on social media, and spend countless hours debating presidential matters, fake news, and the role of the government. We are a nation that is not at rest. America is not a Christian nation, but rather a nation that was founded by men that desired to give freedom and liberty to all to work out their salvation, develop a relationship with God, and have the freedom to prosper. We as Christians are called to be salt and light, to do good, to impact our culture, and honor the authority of the scripture. Join us as we discuss the heritage of America and hear how we can affect the world around us.

Philippians 3:12-21

Many Enemies of the Cross

We are warned at the end of Philippians chapter 3 that there are many Enemies of the Cross. But what Paul gives us, is insight on their motivation and what to look for so that we are not taken in by their deception. Remember Jesus told us, “Take heed that no man deceives you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many” Matthew 24:4-5. Join us in our study of Philippians chapter 3, to gain insight on the tactics of those who oppose the Cross.

Philippians 3:1-11

Beware of Dogs

The warning of “beware of dogs”, is not one that we’d expect to find in the Bible, yet we read it in Philippians chapter 3. The Apostle Paul was dealing with people who were more captivated by man’s devotion to God, than God’s devotion to man. Whatever devotion someone has for God, that devotion is not what will save them from the judgment to come. In the opening verses of chapter 3 we will continue to look at that age old struggle in the Church between Works and Grace.

Philippians 2:19-30

Dealing With Warning Signs

Church splits like divorces rarely happen without warning. You can look back from these events and see that there were troubling signs that were neglected. As we come to the end of Philippians chapter 2, the Apostle Paul is seeking to deal with the problem before it gets out of control. In this chapter, he gives us four examples to follow so that our lives can be used to bring peace to the family of God and division.

Tuesday, June 6, 2017

Philippians 2:12-18

Working Out Your Own Salvation

The Philippian church was struggling with what many churches struggle with which was division. The Apostle Paul was encouraging them to be unified. And to that end he tells them not to work “for” their salvation, but to work “out” their salvation. Join us as we continue to study the second chapter of Philippians dealing with healing divisions in the Church.

Philippians 2:1-11

The Mind of Christ or the Mind of Satan? 

There are only two paths that we can live our life upon, the false and the true. We can follow the example of the fallen Cherub or the example of the descended Son. In Philippians chapter two we look at the emptying of the Son of God, and how we are called to follow His example.

Tuesday, May 23, 2017

Philippians 1:19-30

What’s your Philosophy of Life?

As we come to the end of chapter one in Philippians the Apostle Paul gives us his philosophy of life. What we believe is the purpose of our life is huge because it in many ways sets the direction of our life. The Apostle Paul was no doubt used by God in such a tremendous way because of his view of the purpose of his life. He said, “for me to live is…”. How would you finish that sentence? Join us in our study to see how Paul finished it.

Philippians 1:9-18

God Uses Everything

Paul wrote to the church in Philippi from his prison cell in Rome. He is assuring them that God has not made a mistake by allowing him to be placed in prison. But rather God was at work using what all would agree were less than favorable circumstances. Join us in our study of Philippians chapter 1 as we see God at work even when life doesn’t make sense.

Philippians 1:1-8


As we begin our study in Philippians we see that the word “joy” is found sixteen times in four chapters. The theme of this letter is joy. Joy is different than happiness. Happiness is a delight based upon some present circumstance. Joy is rooted in something very different. Join us as we study the opening verse of chapter one and discover what the scriptures sat about the source of our joy.

Ephesians 5:8-21



In Ephesians chapter 5, we are reading what a life that is dedicated to God looks like. One of the facets of such a life is being filled with the Spirit. Two important questions that we deal with in this chapter is how can one be filled and what is the evidence that a person’s life is filled with God’s Spirit?

Ephesians 5:1-7

Are you a worshipper of God or of idols?

There is no shortage of opinions on how the followers of Christ are to order their lives. Our lifestyles are not to be governed by the opinions of people, but by the simple instructions found in God’s Word. In Ephesians chapter 5, we are given a clear comparison between the true worshipper of God and someone whom the Bible identifies as an idolater.

Ephesians 4:25-32

What grieves God?

What causes grief in the heart of God? Not what makes God angry, but what makes heavy sorrow to come upon His heart? Every parent knows the difference between anger and to be grieved. The fourth chapter of Ephesians lays out those things that can take a hold of our lives that will cause sorrow to come upon the God that loves us. Join us as we look into Ephesians 4:25-32.

Ephesians 4:17-24

The path that leads a soul from God

If someone finds themselves a million miles away from God, how did they get there? They of course followed a path that took them there. Ephesians chapter 4 describes that path, and tells us both where it starts and where it ends.

Ephesians 4:7-16

One Father who is through all

Our heavenly Father has a strong desire to reveal Himself through the Christian. But how does this happen? In Ephesians Chapter 4, the Apostle Paul reveals how God's plan to work through us takes place.

Ephesians 4:1-6


Different religious groups promote different ideas on what God expects from us. You and I do not need Church leaders to tell us what that is. In the forth chapter of Ephesians Paul lays out in simple to understand terms what the desires of God are for us concerning how we are to live. Join us in our study of Ephesians four to discover the Will of God for your life.
