We need to keep representing and sharing the truth without compromising it, regardless of people who don't get it or oppose us for upholding it.
We need to appreciate and celebrate the greatness of the God-breathed New Testament gospel and its power to transform and shape our lives.
When Life Falls Apart (Psalm 46) | Pastor Philip De Courcy
We should live as genuinely regenerate Christians, consistently speaking and acting so that others are clearly shown the transforming power of God's living and active Word.
It is an honor and a solemn stewardship to represent Christ in our world—a task that brings profound satisfaction when done faithfully, even though it will not always be well-received.
It is an honor and a solemn stewardship to represent Christ in our world—a task that brings profound satisfaction when done faithfully, even though it will not always be well-received.
We need to be ready for the challenges, sacrifices, and emotional discomfort that come with truly loving other Christians the way God calls us to.
Nothing could be more urgent and important than responding to the resurrected Christ, who offers himself as our ultimate solution to every threat, challenge, and problem we face in this life and the next.
The name of place that Christ died has implications for how we must understand his death on our behalf.
We must be prepared for the challenges of the testing that will be sure to come in the Christian life, passing these tests without falling to the schemes of our spiritual enemy.
Do You Remember When… (Joshua 4) | Pastor Matt Fabarez
We should seek to find true joy in repentance – our own and others' – as we celebrate grace and purpose to genuinely love other forgiven brothers and sisters.
To keep a clear conscience before both God and people, we must serve them with love and sympathy as God defines, not as we or they might prefer.
You must realize the crucial and important claims of Christianity and be certain where you stand with Christ.
From Fatigue to Faithfulness (2 Timothy) | Pastor David Hegg
And Who Is My Neighbor? (Luke 10:25-37) | Dr. Albert Mohler
If we are to navigate the variabilities of this present life with confidence and a godly attitude then we must trust in the immutability of God and his good overarching plan.
Our love for God's people ought to drive us to a purely-motivated loving service and care that goes even beyond what we think is possible.
When there are misunderstandings, hurt, and conflict we must seek to repair the problems without ever compromising our integrity before God.
We must be especially attuned to the state of our conscience, making sure it is rightly calibrated to God's truth, and then faithfully followed by God's grace.
We must employ the divinely sanctioned means of comfort modeled by the Apostle Paul to experience God's strength and hope in the midst of difficult times.
If we are cognizant of the ways God helps us through our trials, we can then become skilled at helping other Christians through their seasons of suffering.
We should be prayerfully confident that God will orchestrate and apply comfort to our hearts as we draw near to him and each other in the midst of difficult times.
Kicking a Dent in Eternity (Philippians 1:21) | Pastor Todd Smith
We, as Christians graciously saved by God's grace, ought to sincerely and resolutely aim at living a life that pleases the Lord.
Christ is our indispensable Savior who suffered for our forgiveness and who calls us as a spiritual family to build our lives on him by trusting him for forgiveness and following his instructions for life.
We should be comforted and encouraged by God's announcement of his ancient plans to bring about our salvation through Christ just after Adam and Eve first sinned.
Let go of all self-focus and cultivate a life centered on putting others first.
Keeping it Together: When the World is Falling Apart | Dr. Michael Rydelnik
Truth or "Truthiness:" Telling the Truth in a World of Lies | Dr. Erwin Lutzer
We must see the paramount importance of forgiving others always mindful of the far-reaching effects, even, or especially when it is difficult.
Saving faith necessarily fastens our lives to Christ.
We must understand our Christian requirement to forgive, and God's appeal for us to forgive willingly, sincerely, and fully as we are reconciled with our brothers and sisters in Christ.
We must understand our profound connection with each other because of our union with Christ.
We must diligently keep investing in all that is important to God, faithfully and wisely dealing with people, and rightly handling God's word until the work of the church is done.
Like Paul, we must be wise about our words with others, knowing that as Christians in a fallen world we will always need to seek to excel in our communication.
We must draw the connection between God and his gracious provisions in our lives and, for his glory, make the most of all that he has set before us.
We must have confidence in the veracity of our Bibles, knowing how God miraculously authenticated the Apostles and Prophets he used to relay his written revelation to us.
God's promises to us must be believed with a tenacious, God-fueled confidence no matter what might tempt us to doubt them.
We as Christians should understand the important role God has graciously allowed us to currently have in preserving, protecting, and improving the concentric spheres in which we live.
We ought to care about the people around us and the culture we live in, boldly relaying God's revealed wisdom to them, knowing his indomitable plans will surely be carried out.
The Christian life will be filled with various difficulties which can be endured with great courage as we cling to God with an accurate understanding of who he is.
Spend your life contributing to the construction of God's church in a proper way and be rewarded in the end!
Going Public (Acts 5:11-42) | Pastor Matt Shackelford
Christians need to think far beyond our current circumstances and focus on God's point of view and plan to bring himself glory.
Saved by Grace Through Faith | Pastor Mike Fabarez
Q&A with Pastor Mike Fabarez | July 13-14, 2024 | Compass Bible Church
God is a protector of his people, and Christians should always seek to detect his gracious deliverance in its varied forms, knowing God is worthy of our humble praise and generous response.
When life is hard we must purposefully seek the Lord, knowing he is responsive to our pain and that he will give us the hope and courage that we need.
While many will vehemently resist the biblical gospel, we must see through their biases and double down on the authenticated message God has commissioned us to share persuasively.
