Authentic Conversations: It Is Written Part 2 (The Red Letter Series)

Authentic Conversations

April 24, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter, Bro. Lance Gr

This week Pastor Jason is joined by Bro. Lance Gray for an Authentic Conversation about Sunday’s message “It Is Written Part 2”. They look at the what Jesus was teaching us while the enemy was trying to tempt Him. God allows us to be tested to reveal what’s in us to bless us, while the enemy tempts us to expose what should not be there. Though He was God, as a man, Jesus showed us we can make the right choice.

Jesus heard the lie of the enemy, held His ground, then tackled the lie by not only quoting content, but content within context. He pointed back to Israel in the wilderness. Jesus was saying we can either be an Israelite who doubts and falls in the wilderness, or we can be a Caleb. We can stand on The Word, trust in God, pursue what we should really hunger for, and allow Him to complete in us what He desires to give us.

Authentic Conversations: Graduation Sunday Student Class

May 22, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter, Pastor Brittany Potter

This week’s Authentic Conversations focuses on  the “Graduation Sunday: Student Class”. Pastor Jason and Pastor Brittany discuss moving forward and upward. As Pastor Jason shared with the students Sunday, part of this is seeking God’s direction through His Word. In this process, we don’t study the Bible to make something fit, but to study to reveal what’s there. If you want the Bible to really do a work in you, you have to be a true seeker for it to be revealed to you.  We should pray for insight and clarity before we open our Bible to read, so that God’s Spirit can guide us in our reading. In searching for an answer, along with prayer, we can look for those in God’s Word who had a similar situation. No matter our age, we all are students, we’re still learning, and as we seek more of Him, He will add to us in ways beyond what we could ever imagine!

Graduation Sunday: Student Class

May 19, 2024 • Pastor Jason Potter

On this special Graduation Sunday, Pastor Jason wanted to have one more “Student Class” with the graduates. In it he points them to Solomon as he became king, and the fact that like him, they and all of us are taking our next steps both forward and upward. Forward because we are about to go further than we’ve ever gone before. Upward because we are about to be doing better than we’ve ever done before. It’s progress that is locked stepped with excellence. Solomon recognized that he was God’s servant, that God was in control. Second he told God he was willing to accept whatever He would have him do, but he needed the right mind set and the right skill set. Third, he knew that the overarching purpose of life is serving those that he has been designed to serve. For us our priority is not what we’re going to do, but Who we’re going to serve. Life is a series of steps, but every step is for us not against us, designed to graduate into what God wants us to be.
