Man / Husband

Our cultural climate has many men wondering what it means to be a man. The work of every generation of Christians is to examine significant cultural issues through the lens of the worldview of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Our job is to bring the sanity that can only be found in Scripture. The manhood conversation really does need an infusion of biblical wisdom.

Imitating Through Proverbs

As we conclude our Proverbia sermon series, we look at how the pursuit of wisdom is ongoing, and it is our responsibility to seek it out.

The Walls of Self-Control

February 28, 2016 • Pastor Blair Allen

Everybody is normal until you get to know them; every one of us has problems; every one of us has a battle in our lives between what the Bible says is the "flesh" and the "Spirit." We all have addictions where the impulses of our bodies (our "flesh") seem to take over self-control. Without self-control in our lives, our own passions and desires will enter into our lives and can ravage us. Proverbs tells us that self-control is like the walls of a city. When you take down the walls of self control, you open yourself up to all kinds of things. One of the things that is opened up in our lives when we lack self-control is that we can become addicted to any number of things. We will be exploring the root of all our addictions – self-control.

The Paradox of Generosity

February 14, 2016 • Pastor Blair Allen

Radical generosity is completely counter-intuitive in our day. Common sense would lead us to believe that holding on to our possessions is a more certain way to wealth. It's a paradox. In the Bible, we're told that the best way to wisely handle our money, and to get even more, is to scatter it. In other words, the best way to handle your money is to be wildly and radically generous with it. Don't save it and accumulate it for your own purposes. Don't waste your life by playing it safe. Use what God has given you and be wildly generous with it.
