When Faith Fails

August 21, 2022 • Matthew 17:14–20

We’ve all experienced failure. And in order to overcome our dysfunctional relationship with failure, we need to learn that failure is not final when it comes to God. He wants to teach us to wait on Him, to believe that Jesus is more than simply a problem solver in our lives, and to grow from our failures. In the world of faith, failure doesn’t have to be FINAL, if our faith is in Jesus, not a result! TALK ABOUT IT - Questions to GROW through with family, friends, & myself. 1. Has my faith ever failed? What resulted in that season of my walk with the Lord? 2. How does my faith fail when I fail to wait on the Lord? Is it possible to be successful at the wrong things? 3. How does my faith fail when I refuse to believe Jesus is bigger than my problems? How do i correct this? 4. How does my faith fail when I fail to learn? Why am I afraid to start small? 5. PRAYER: “Father, help us to wait on you, Lord over all, as you grow our faith.”

Faith For Fulfillment

August 14, 2022 • Joshua 6:1–20

Everyone has faith. We place faith in the stock market, jobs, spouses, government, science, & medicine. We demonstrate faith every time we sit down in a chair! But do we have that kind of faith in God? The Israelites saw the walls of Jericho fall, not by force, but by faith. When we place our faith in Him, He fulfills His promises in our lives! TALK ABOUT IT - Questions to GROW through with family, friends, & myself. 1. How many times did I purchase something on Amazon? Why do I trust Amazon to fulfill my orders? 2. Do I believe that God has promises for my life? What causes me to doubt God? 3. What happens to my faith while I wait for God to fulfill His promises over my life? 4. What is the true test of faith? How do my actions in response to God’s fulfillment reflect on my heart? 5. PRAYER: “Father, help us to place our faith in Jesus!”

Faith For The Future

August 7, 2022 • Troy Martin • Numbers 13, Numbers 14

Life has a way of stealing our capacity to trust because we've been let down by people. But when we place our faith in God, He will not let us down. We can believe, even when we cannot see. We can step out IN FAITH!
