In these famous verses, the Apostle explains that he has learned “the secret” of contentment. If contentment is a “secret” then from it we infer discontent is the normal, common disposition.

Christians are called to honor Christ in both our life and in our death, but how do we do the latter? Behind the Christian idea of “dying well” is the idea that dying is gain. Join us as we explore these verses and concepts together!
In this passage, Paul explains how there’s no downside to his situation - live or die, it’s a win. This mindset comes as the practical outworking of a deep-seated application of the truth of union with Christ. Join us as we explore what union with Christ means for us as we live to honor Christ.

In today’s passage we see that one’s relationship to their possessions - especially their money - is a key indicator of what is and isn’t important to that person. God so often addresses the subject of giving precisely because of the effect our possessions often have on our hearts. Join us as we discuss the duty of Christians to give generously and how God promises to meet our needs if we will step out in faith in this area.
Too often we are bothered by the wickedness around us while remaining unfazed by the wickedness within us. In today’s passage the prophet addresses this tendency in the hearts of his hearers. Join us as we learn of the importance of being aware of our own sin and turning to Christ while it is still the day of forgiveness.
The prophet’s audience had a low view of God and consequently a low view of marriage. In remarkably similar fashion, modern Christians often have far too low a view of the importance of marriage.

Good works are an important part of the Christian life, but when it comes to understanding how we are justified by God, it is important that we affirm that justification comes sola fide. Join us as we consider this important truth!
Christians talk a lot about “faith.” Have you ever wondered what we’re talking about when we talk about “faith?” Join us as Pastor Ben continues our Reformation Series look at Sola Fide by addressing the question: "What is Faith?”
In this first message in our 2024 Reformation series, Pastor Ben looks at what it is that serves as the legal basis for our justification. While faith is the instrument by which we receive salvation, we are not saved because of faith, but rather because of the finished work of Christ on our behalf. Join us as we explore the ground of our salvation!
