    We've studied about and are familiar with the idea "die to oneself to win others to Christ" but are we aware just like in Paul's time - people are examining our lives to see if they match up with what we preach and teach. Are we really being the Christians we say we are? Fellow believers certainly watch as well. As a good indicator, do our wives, kids and grandkids see us reading the bible, teaching the bible, praying and actively participating in the family of God?

    Clay reiterates Franks's message from Sunday but also takes time to get real with us - real about the temptations in our life. As men we are especially vulnerable to the sexual messages and graphic images in our society today. Never in history has porn been so readily available - and in a form that can be easily hidden (cell phones) However we may try and hide it and its effects on us, our marriage and children but that's a lie - Satan laughs as we slip more and more into addiction. The key is having God and other brothers in your life to confess to - brothers to pray with and to hold you accountable. Together we can make the positive strides we want to make. Find a brother to help you in your struggle and in turn you can help another as you begin to succeed.

    O Little Town

    Play Episode Listen Later Dec 22, 2024 24:12


    God often uses tiny, seemingly insignificant things to show us deep truths about Himself and His ways. Throughout the Bible, we see God teach us spiritual lessons through ordinary things in our everyday lives, like a mustard seed, a sparrow, or a child. These small things aren't just random or simple; they're like windows into bigger realities, inviting us to look beyond the surface and see the amazing wisdom of God. For example, Jesus used a tiny mustard seed to show us how even the smallest faith can have a huge impact. The seed might look tiny, but when it grows, it becomes a tree that provides shelter for birds (Matthew 13:31-32). In this way, God teaches us that even the most humble beginnings can lead to amazing results when we trust Him. ---------- These lessons from small things remind us not to overlook the little moments and unnoticed details of life. God is not only there in big, exciting events or dramatic encounters, but also in the quiet, subtle ways He speaks to us through the ordinary. Whether it's the persistence of a tiny ant, the faithfulness of the rain, or even a tiny baby born into a seemingly insignificant town like Bethlehem, God shows us His character and invites us to learn from the simplest of things. By doing so, He reminds us that His kingdom works in ways that often surprise us, turning the small and weak into powerful forces for change. In this sense, the “small things” aren't just minor details; they're the ways God shapes our hearts and calls us to a deeper understanding of His greatness.

    Both Mary and Joseph are confronted with life-altering decisions that forced them to relinquish control and step into the unknown, and yet they demonstrate unwavering faith in God's plan for their lives. This can deeply resonate with us, as we often find ourselves at crossroads where the right decision may not always align with our personal desires or comfort. ————— For Mary, the angel's message is a reminder that God's call often comes with both awe and fear. It requires us to step into the unknown, just as Mary did, even when the path ahead seems unclear and full of challenges. Mary's response, “Let it be to me according to your word,” exemplifies the kind of surrender and trust we are called to embody. ---------- Joseph's decision to take Mary as his wife, despite the potential social and personal consequences, also teaches us about obedience and trust in God's timing. When life presents difficult or confusing situations, we might be tempted to retreat into what feels safe or logical, just as Joseph initially considered divorcing Mary quietly. However, his willingness to act on God's revelation, without hesitation, shows us the importance of responding to God's guidance, even when it challenges our assumptions or comfort.

In Isaiah 11:1, the prophecy of a "shoot from the stump of Jesse" foretells a new life emerging from a seemingly dead and broken lineage. ————— The God of hope fills believers with joy and peace through the Holy Spirit and He assists them in helping to identify actions they can take to lead to contnuing and sharing hope with others. God then provides them an opportunity to celebrate the miraculous ways God works, even in the most surprising of circumstances.

    God's grace is for everyone who believes, even those who were once thought of as outcasts or unworthy by humans. This grace isn't something we earn; it's a gift given freely. Through faith, we become part of God's family, just like a wild branch is grafted into a cultivated tree. It's all thanks to God's mercy and love, not because of anything we've done. ————— So, let's approach God's grace with humility. We all need His mercy, and there's no room for arrogance or thinking we're better than others. Our salvation is a gift, not something we earned through our own efforts. Instead of judging others, let's show them the same grace and compassion we want to receive. Let's live in gratitude and unity, reflecting God's love in everything we do.

    God's wisdom is a precious treasure that brings blessing and guidance. It's found in Scripture, in creation, and in everyday life. Through the Bible, God reveals timeless truth that shapes our decisions and perspectives. Creation also reflects His wisdom, showing us His order and design. And in daily life, God speaks through the Holy Spirit, guiding us through the various challenges and opportunities we face. ————— However, we face constant distractions from competing voices—cultural pressures, selfish desires, and false ideologies—that lead us away from God's wisdom. To live wisely, we must intentionally choose to fill our minds and hearts with God's truth. By prioritizing Scripture, reflecting on creation, and listening for God's guidance in the everyday, we align ourselves with His wisdom, leading to peace, purpose, and blessing. ---------- If you would like to follow along with our Live Worship featuring sermon notes and other helpful links, it is available through the Bible.com App. You can use this link:http://bible.com/events/49350258 or to download an outline of the sermon to follow along, click on this link: https://bit.ly/at-crossroads ---------- Afterward, please feel free to follow up with questions, feedback, etc. in the comment section.

The allure of temptation can be strong, but it's important to be aware of these tactics and stay true to our faith and commitment to Christ. If we know what temptations look like, we can recognize when we're being manipulated and resist the urge to give in. ---------- In the end, the best way to live a spiritually healthy and holy life is to avoid temptation altogether and seek wisdom from His Word. the Bible is like a compass that that points in a Godly direction and helps us to make good choices and stay on the right path and avoid destruction. It calls us to carefully study the Word and apply those truths to our lives and learn from the mistakes we have made or will make in the future.
