As Believers we know that bad things will happen. Sometimes they happen a lot. In other words, there are times when things are not ok. So, how then are we to see that even when things are not ok…they are, in fact, ok? Join us as we begin this journey through Philippians with the reassurance that even when things are […]

Of all of the questions we could possibly ask related to our salvation…this may be the most important. The Question? Can I lose my salvation? Is it possible that either I could walk away from a legitimate conversion or could God get so angry with me that He would simply take it away from me? This is an extremely important […]

God’s grace is amazing…right? So there is no way then that it could ever be considered controversial…right? If only that were the case. Only people could take something as extraordinary as grace and make it controversial. And that is often exactly what we do. What does that look like? How does it work? What exactly does grace contain that could […]

Of course by now I think it is safe to assume that we know we cannot do works to earn our salvation. Yet Paul writes in Ephesians 2:10 that we are created in Christ Jesus “for good works”. So the question becomes: What role does works play in our salvation? How are we supposed to view them, engage with them, […]

If we are saved by grace so that we cannot do anything to earn our salvation, why does Paul seem to say in Romans 10:9-10 that if we confess and believe then we will be saved? Do these verses contradict other grace-only verses? Is confessing and believing really a “work” in the first place? Join us as we continue our […]

As Believers, we use the word grace a lot. And we should. After all, it is by grace that we are saved. But do we really understand the Biblical view of grace? Are we certain that if someone asked us what we mean by “God’s grace”, we would be able to give a complete answer. It is vitally important that […]

This is the question that is as old as humanity. All people will ask this question at some point in their lives. As we finish up this amazing journey through the book of Ecclesiastes, Solomon guides us to the answer to the question: What is the meaning of life?

One of the first things we want to know once we come to faith in Christ is: What does God want me to do? It is only natural that we would want to do what pleases Him and be a part of Him accomplishing His will on this planet and in our lives. But what does that look like? And […]

We all understand the construct of getting good, fatherly advice. But what about the advice we can get from our heavenly Father? Is there such a thing? There is indeed. Join us as we delve into advice that only a true Father can give.

As Believers, does God want us to enjoy our life on this planet…or simply endure it until He calls us home with Him? In these fascinating verses we will take a look at how God actually does give us joy in a life that is often filled with pain and difficulties.

We are told over and over again that, as Believers, this world is not our home. We are simply sojourners on this planet. If that is the case, then how do we live in a world that is not our home?

Do you consider yourself a greedy person? Do you think God would consider you a greedy person? Join us as seek out the Biblical definition of greed and the destructive role it plays in our life.

Every interaction we have with God should be considered worship. And why not? He is the only true holy Being in the universe. But how are those interactions supposed to look? What are the elements that need to be in place in order for us to properly worship? Join us as we discover those elements in God’s Word.

As Believers we are told that though we are in the world, we are not to be of the world. But what does that mean? How should we interact with the world? Can the world actually do anything for us? In these verses we see what happened to Solomon when he took his focus off of God and put in […]

Worry and anxiety affect every single human being on the planet. No matter what your circumstance in life, worry and anxiety plagues us all. Jesus warns us of the detrimental effect worry has on all of us in Matthew 6:25-34. But is worry, in and of itself, a sin? Is it wrong? Solomon was one of the most accomplished, wealthy, […]

Is there anything wrong with a Believer wanting success? Is worldly success an antithesis to God’s desire for our lives? Join us as we answer this extremely important question while looking at the world through the prism of God’s Word.

What does the Bible say about the pursuit of wisdom? Should we pursue it? Does it matter if it is worldly wisdom? Solomon was arguably the wisest person who ever lived. But did his pursuit of worldly wisdom lead him away from God? Join us as we attempt to answer that question.

Is pleasure in and of itself a bad thing? Is it inherently wrong? Join us as we take a look at the answer to that question inspired by Solomon’s words in Ecclesiastes.

In this message we tackle a question as old as humanity. Is life, ultimately, meaningless? Solomon poses and answers this question in our text today. Join us as we examine Ecclesiastes 1: 1-18 in order to be able to answer this all-important question.

King Solomon was arguably the wealthiest and wisest person who ever walked on this planet. He had everything a person could possibly want and yet finished his life believing it was all for nothing. Join us as we begin this journey through one of the most amazing books in the entire Bible. As relevant now as it was 3,000 years […]

Join us as we wrap up our study on the importance of God’s Word…and getting it right.

Join us as we discuss the danger of proof texting Bible passages. What does this mean? Take a listen to find out how to avoid this dangerous hermeneutical fallacy.

Am I supposed to take every passage in the Bible literally? Does the genre of the passage have anything to do with this question? Join us as we answer these (and other) questions related to Biblical hermeneutics.

When it comes to Biblical hermeneutics…there is one question we must always avoid. The question? “What does this passage mean to me”. We can never be the final arbiter as to the meaning of God’s Word. The correct question is: “What does this passage mean”? Our theology must not dictate our exegesis. Our exegesis must dictate our theology. Join us […]

Simeon is the single most overlooked person related to the Nativity. Listen to discover what we can learn from this amazing person who met Jesus when Jesus was only 40 days old.

Can understanding the original speakers, hearers, and writers give us more insight into the true meaning of the Scriptures? Join us this week as we examine that very question and how it impacts good Biblical hermeneutics.

Join us as we continue our series on Biblical Hermeneutics. This week we take a look at how we can use Scripture to help us better understand other passages that might confuse or confound us. This strategy helps the exegete come to a better understanding of what God is saying to us through His Word.

This episode we take a closer look at a familiar passage (2 Peter 3:9). Let’s see if actually reading it in context gives us more clarity. See what you think.
