Welcome to Purpose Church Claremont - Read Scripture. Just some thoughts from Brian as we all go through Scripture together as a community.

Brian Holland - "Life With The Holy Spirit"

With the word "again" comes so much for us to look at. In this episode, I want to point out what again means when it comes to Jesus and what it means for us following him.Mark 4:1 | Again, he began to teach by the sea... (CSB)

Maybe before we claim God's promises, we should fall down before Him in humble worship and thanksgiving for being a God who promises us anything in the first place.

The people of Israel are to be holy because He, the Lord, their God, is holy. But what did he mean by this? How do we apply it today as followers of Jesus? He has made us holy before him, but he has called us to be holy in this world. Our holiness should be seen by others.

Let this sink in: we are invited to cry out to our God and our King any time we want or need to. Will we be audacious enough to do that?Here's the blog post that goes with today's episode.

No matter how things seem, and no matter how things seem stacked against you, you can always come back and tell God, "But you, Lord, are..." and know that he hears and answers you when you do.

As we look at Psalm 2:12, we see that God desires that we be happy. But it is important for us to know what He meant by the word "happy" and what is required for us to be "happy."

Genesis 47:9 | Jacob said to Pharaoh, “My pilgrimage has lasted 130 years.” (CSB)What if we saw our life as a pilgrimage instead of just days or years lived?

Something that stood out to Brian from Ezra 3:3 about fear and faith.
