October 16, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 John 2:3–11
The Christian is called to love others as Christ loves us, and that high calling may seem as though it is not attainable. But it is - through the strength of God. Today on Bridging the Gap, Pastor Lloyd Pulley urges us to raise the bar of our love for one another. This is just part of his ongoing survey of First John.
Joy in Fellowship
October 2, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 John 1:1–4
We'll continue Lloyd's new verse by verse series in First John today, as we look at the first four verses of chapter one. What is life all about? Big houses? Lot's of money? Success in the workplace? Well, philosophers, both famous and not so famous have opined about that question almost from the beginning of mankind. Like most of these type of questions, we really shouldn’t rely on man's opinion, but on God's.
Diligence in Light of God's Grace
September 18, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 3:15–18
Today Lloyd will concentrate on chapter three, verses fifteen through eighteen, and some serious reminders from Peter about the soon return of Jesus Christ. The world may mock Him, and they may lie about what His true purpose was on earth, but one fact remains certain. He will return someday to judge this world!
Preparation for His Coming
September 4, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 3:11–14
We are nearing the end of our look back at the most requested messages from 2016, and today's study is in Second Peter, chapter three. Peter spends the final chapter of this epistle reminding his friends that there are indeed many things for us to do before the Lord’s return, and we shouldn't get caught up in simply waiting around for that glorious event.
The Promise of His Coming
August 14, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 3:1–10
Pastor Lloyd is nearing the end of a study through Second Peter, and today we’ll again be in chapter three of this wonderful little letter. Peter spends the final chapter of this epistle reminding his friends that there are indeed many things for us to do before the Lord's return, and we shouldn't get caught up in simply waiting around for that glorious event.
Affidavit of Peter Confirmed - Part 2
July 10, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 2 Peter 1:19–21
Today on Bridging the Gap, Pastor Lloyd Pulley will finish up Second Peter chapter one and he is drawing attention to one very strong piece of evidence that confirms what Peter has said about the reliability of God's word. Join us for a great time of bible study by opening your bible to Second Peter, chapter one.
Humility and Submission
May 15, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Peter 5:5–7
Even a quick glance at television today will tell you that this world has a problem with humility. The catch phrase of the year 2016 has got to be "It’s all about ME!" Welcome to Bridging the Gap with Pastor Lloyd Pulley. It's good to have you with us as Pastor Lloyd continues his study of First Peter. Peter has some good words to say about the need for a humble heart in chapter five, verses five through seven.
Arm Yourselves
April 10, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Peter 4:1–8
We're in the midst of a look back at the most requested messages from Pastor Lloyd in 2016, and today's message is from his verse by verse study of First Peter. If you ask the world what it takes to get to heaven, you'll get a lot of "being a good person" answers. That's not the measuring stick God uses, however.
Power and Purpose Under Persecution
March 6, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Peter 3:13–22
The body of Christ is an extension - an arm of Christ - reaching out to a world desperately in need of help. Compassion, such as this is just one of several marks of a Christian that we’ll examine here today on Bridging the Gap. We are sharing the most requested messages from last year, and today we'll join Pastor Lloyd Pulley in First Peter chapter three.
Thriving Under Authority
February 7, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Peter 2:18–25
Today on Bridging the Gap, we'll turn to First Peter two, and receive helpful instruction for Christian employees. Maybe you dread getting up out of bed and going to work these days? I think you'll find this study encouraging as Pastor Lloyd Pulley urges us to elevate our perspective and use Jesus as our example as we go to work.
