Language English

What is the relationship between works and faith? What does it mean to be doers and not hearers only? What are we expected to do? How can our faith be made practical? What does it mean to be unspotted from the world? Is what God expects of us really possible?

Peter: Be Who You Are

How did Peter describe the Christian experience? What virtues of Christianity did he emphasize? Do Christians have a role to play in the salvation experience? What is the most important virtue of all? How did Peter view the life after death experience? What did he mean by putting off my tabernacle? As Peter writes his final letter before following Jesus to the cross, what can we learn and apply to our lives today?

Galatians: The Gospel And The Church

What does walking in the Spirit mean for Christians in the Church? How can we carry one another’s burdens? What burdens can individuals only carry themselves? How do we fulfill the law of Christ in helping one another? Is the law of Christ different from God’s law? What does Paul mean by his metaphor of sowing and reaping?

Matthew: The Ministry Begins

Dr. Andy Nash joins us this week as we study the beginning of the ministry of Jesus. Why was Jesus led into the wilderness? How did Jesus fulfill prophecy as He went to different places during His ministry? What did Jesus' life reveal about the character of God in contrast to the character of Satan? What message did both Jesus and John the baptist preach, and how would that compare with the message that the world needs to hear today? How can we gain comfort and encouragement looking at the early days of Jesus' ministry according to the gospel of Matthew?

Lost Day Of History

The Bible teaches about a day lost in history. A day God designed for us to remember. This week's lesson uncovers the mystery of this forgotten and lost day.

The Eyes Of Conscience

Spiritual sight is the Holy Spirit’s conviction to our conscience, helping us to recognize our state of sinfulness. I love to call that process the eyes of conscience. You see, irrespective of how morally good many of us are, in the eyes of God, our righteousness is really just filthy rags. By our good works, we are unable to measure up to God’s standard of righteousness. Therefore, we need the eyes of conscience to see our real status.

In The Pool or On The Porch

I wonder how many of us have lost patience, having given up because we have prayed and waited so long for a breakthrough, for an answer to prayer, for our ‘waters to be troubled’ so that we can be first, but still nothing’s happening. Whatever you are going through, whatever it is that you have been praying about, don’t give up. Your blessing maybe just around the corner. You may be looking for your blessing to be in the ‘pool’ but God may be waiting to bless you on the ‘porch’. You may be expecting your ‘water’ circumstances to change, with help from others, but God may have earmarked your blessing in a different form. Do not limit God.

Establish Your Identity

We introduce ourselves with our names and sometimes occupational titles, and that’s okay. But what about your professed identity? Are you worried what persons might think? Accolades are okay; that’s your hard work. But being labeled a child of the King, a Christian, a candidate of Heaven carries more weight. From the outset, declare your hand. Do not hide behind political rightness.
