Transformed
Seeing clearly with a Biblical Worldview
March W3 Vlog | Meaning-Life Choices
February 27, 2020
In the Bible, we read, “God formed us with purpose,” “Before we were born God knew us,” “God determine our steps,” But do we actually believe that? Do we practice that belief? How often do we seek the Lord for purpose and meaning in life? How often do we look to God as our Lord when we make decisions? Or do we just make decisions and hope that it aligns with the will of God. ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.

March W2 Vlog | Religious Tolerance
February 27, 2020
In the Bible, we read belief in Jesus is the only way to have salvation for our sins. But then when we look at the world we realize that there are many other world-views with many different religions. This then rationally begs many questions: How do we know the Bible is true? Don’t all religions have the same goal- to be a better person and when we die, they all lead to the same place? Isn’t Christianity and Jesus judgmental in saying all other religions are false? How is Jesus loving and compassionate like Christians say if it Christianity is so judgmental? But everyone of these questions is trying to make an absolute truth a relative truth. The question to really ask is how do we share this absolute truth in love to people who will be judged for all time for their sin if they do not believe in Jesus as savior for their sins? ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.

March W1 Vlog | Absolute & Relative Truth
February 27, 2020
In the Bible we read belief in Jesus is the only way to have salvation for our sins. However, many people believe that while that may be true for you it is not true for them. This begs the question, are there any truths that exist that transcend time and culture? Things that are true for all mankind for all time? And if so, what are they? Or can we even know if something is true at all or do we just have to have faith and hope we are right? ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.

Feb W4 Vlog: Ethical Gray Areas | What is right and wrong
February 21, 2020
In the word of God, there are many things that are clearly stated, like “Thou shalt have no other gods before me” or “Thou shalt not steal.” But then there are many things that we face in life that the Bible is either not clear about or is silent on. Many things are questions that are practical for everyday life and yet the Bible seems to not answer such as, -“How do I know Christianity is the right religion? Can I even know?” -“Can I kiss someone or hold my boyfriend‘s hand?” -“Did God create me gay?” -“Can I vape?” In this series, we will discuss principles found within the Word of God that will help us live worthy of the calling that God has called us to live, even when it seems the Bible is silent on the subject. ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.

Feb W2 Vlog: Morality | What is right and wrong
February 13, 2020
In the Bible we read “God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy.” In modern culture we hear “That is true for you but that is not my truth” How do we know which is true? Is God the one true judge of all things? Does he determine what is right and wrong? Can we even know? Or is there a way that both are true? This week we study the Word of God and see which worldview stands the test of truth. ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.

In the Bible we read “for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life the Jesus Christ our Lord” but in modern culture we hear “evolved from nothing so we should eat, drink and be merry because there is nothing when we die.” How do we know which is true? Can we even know? Or is there a way that both are true?

Jan W1 Vlog: Biblical Worldview | What is a Worldview?
January 2, 2020
Every time we face a problem, a question in our heart or a trial in our life, we come to peace with it through our worldview. This is something that is built up through the way we were raised, the teachers and friends we have had, the media we consume, etc... But in the end is what we believe about the world actually true? Is it founded in truth or is it founded in what we think to be true? The only way to know this for sure is to take the questions we have and filter them through truth. And that is the Word of God. ___________________________________ This week spend time reading the Word of God (found in our read plan portion of the app) and praying about what putting others needs before your own looks like in your life.
