The Gift of Prayer
December 31, 2023 • Duffy Robbins
Bible Teacher Duffy Robbins reminds us that we have access to the throne room of God through prayer - a priceless privilege purchased for us by Jesus' death on the cross. God wants us to come to Him with whatever is on our hearts - the little things and the big things. Don't take this gift lightly - come before God with your needs, your praise, and your thanksgiving!
As Far As It Depends on You
November 26, 2023 • Clay Scroggins • Romans 12
Clay challenged us to live up to the call of Romans 12:18, "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." In the season of holidays and family gatherings this can be especially challenging. Whether or not we like someone, by focusing on our own behavior we can model the love of God.
From Selfishness to Gratitude
November 19, 2023 • Michael McDowell • Luke 17
Michael McDowell calls us to examine our response to God's generous gifts in light of Luke 17. God is always lavishing his gifts on us - but when those gift change, do we respond with anger or with trust in the Gift-Giver? To move our hearts from selfishness to trust we need to look for the gifts of God in our lives and express gratitude!
The Foolishness of Greed
November 12, 2023 • Ken Werlein • Luke 12
Founding Pastor Ken Werlein explores the question, 'Why can't we get a grip on greed?' Jesus talked about money frequently, urging us to recognize that everything we have comes from God and belongs to Him. We are only stewards. Ken invites everyone to take the Malachi 3:10 challenge over the next 90 days. You can do so at http://faithbridge.org/m310.
Secrets of the Kingdom
October 29, 2023 • Ben Stuart • Mark 4
Bible Teacher Ben Stuart preaches from Mark 4 diving into the parable of the sower. If we want to be the men and women who God calls us to be, we need humble hearts that are fertile ground for the words of Jesus. Let us accept not just the kingdom but the King Himself!
The Story of Running Out
October 15, 2023 • John 2
Bible Teacher Jessica LaGrone brought a powerful message from John 2. Diving into the story of the wedding in Cana, Jessica shows how desperation can be a fruitful place. We were made to reach the end of our own efforts - and turn to Jesus. The miracle you need may begin when you confess your need to Jesus.
Enduring Faith
January 1, 2023 • Duffy Robbins • Hebrews 11:1
The Bible defines "faith" as "the assurance of things hoped for." But how can we have such assurance in a world marred by uncertainty, doubt, and the constant failings of our human-made hopes? As we enter 2023, Duffy Robbins offers a fresh perspective with a call to stand firm in the living, unfailing hope of Jesus Christ.
All Things New
January 2, 2022 • Steve Carter
When you look at yourself and others, what do you see? Is your perspective defined by labels, polarities, and the views of the world? Or does the Cross transform and redefine your vision? As we kick off 2022, Steve Carter calls us to see ourselves and others as God does - through redemptive eyes.
God's Better Judgement
December 5, 2021 • Connie Beaver • Matthew 7:1–5
Today Connie Beaver teaches from the words of Jesus in Matthew 7:1–5: Hypocritically judging others can harden our hearts not only towards other people, but to God Himself. What could your life look like if you let God use your judgement for growth?
