ADVENT WEEK FOUR: LOVEDecember 23 Rev. Allie Utley, PhDWho am I?2 Samuel 7:18, 23-29Then King David went in and sat before the Lord and said, “Who am I, OLord God, and what is my house, that you have brought me thus far?”2 Samuel 7:18This chapter of 2 Samuel opens with King David pondering how to best playhost to God: “Here I am, living in a house of cedar, while the ark of God re-mains in a tent.” David plans to build a house for the Lord. If you know yourBible well, you will not be surprised that God isn't interested in a permanentdwelling place.God declares to David, You will not build me a house; I will build you one. Godpromises to establish David's family line, to make his name great, and to planthis people in a home of their own.David's response is a performance of humanity: “Who am I, O Lord God, thatyou have brought me this far?” He might have been wondering: Who am I tobe held by your promises? Who am I to bear a legacy of faith? Who am I to begiven a place in your unfolding story?As we approach Christmas, many of us are thinking about homes and housestoo. Where will we gather? For whom will we make space? What traditions willwe tend? Making plans for Christmas brings up questions of place and identi-ty.I recently spoke with a group of young adults trying to navigate the pressureof holiday expectations: how to honor family traditions while creating theirown rhythms, how to choose where to dwell and whom to prioritize.Perhaps David's story invites us to hold our own questions about home lightly.God reminds David—and us—that the truest “house” is the one God is build-ing: a household of promise, presence, and peace that transcends cedar wallsand travel plans.

ADVENT WEEK TWO: PEACEDecember 10 Rev. Mike MillerThe Call of PeaceRomans 12:17-21If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, love peaceably with all.Romans 12:18This passage from Romans 12 has been one of my personal favorite scrip-tures along my faith journey. And it reminds me that if our journey as Chris-tians and Christ followers is easy, I don't believe we are doing it right.Paul's words here are challenging. “Do not repay anyone evil for evil... live atpeace with everyone.” These aren't passive instructions; they are active callsto peacemaking. Our call to be Christians is not a call to passivity: it is a call toaction. This kind of peace that we are called to create with God isn't just theabsence of conflict, but it is the intentional presence of grace, forgiveness,and humility.As we reflect on the Peace of God this Advent, we're reminded that Jesuscame not only to bring peace to us but also to make peace through us. Jesuswas not born into a serene, peaceful world, but into one filled with injustice,fear, and political tension.Still, Jesus chose peace and continues to call us to do the same. Our world isstill so full of injustice, fear, and political polarization. Our call as Christians isto continue to create spaces of peace for all of God's beloved: which is all ofus.Advent is a season of expectation, wonder, and preparation — not only forthe birth of Christ but for the transformation Jesus' coming brings. In a worldmarked by division, resentment, and conflict, Romans 12 calls us to somethingradically different: the way of peace. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

《原谅,是给自己的礼物》“Forgiveness Is a Gift to Yourself”Forgiveness doesn't change the past, but it frees the future.“原谅不能改变过去,但能让未来自由。”Growing up, this memory was undeniably the most painful chapter of my life, and it deeply shaped the person I am today.在我成长的过程中,这段记忆无疑是最痛苦的,也深深塑造了今日的我。⸻2In junior high, I was an outstanding student, almost always ranking first in the entire school. Yet, I didn't get into my dream school—Kaohsiung Girls' Senior High. I eventually chose Fengshan High School and passed the exam to enter the gifted English program.国中时,我的成绩优异,几乎总是全校第一。然而,我却未能如愿考上第一志愿——高雄女中。最终,我选择了凤山高中,并通过考试进入英语资优班。⸻3Those days were wonderful. Each of my classmates had their own unique personality, and the cheerful atmosphere helped me open up in ways I rarely had before. I finally had more time to study the English I loved, and we had a humorous, open-minded homeroom teacher—Gilian.那段日子是如此美好,班上的同学各具特色,乐观开朗的氛围也让我开始展现自己较少流露的一面。我能花更多时间学习最热爱的英语,还有一位幽默开明的班导师——Lilian。⸻4She cared deeply for us. She even invited the whole class to her wedding and organized a trip from Kaohsiung to Taipei to visit universities—an experience that broadened my world.她不仅用心指导我们,还带全班参加她的婚礼,甚至组织我们从高雄到台北的大学参观,开拓视野。⸻5In that class, I became inseparable friends with Jenny. She was lively and outgoing—the center of attention—while I was more introverted, yet I tried my best to be close to her, learning confidence through her.在这个班级里,我和佳欣成了无话不谈的好友。她个性活泼开朗,是班上的焦点人物,而我则较为内向,但仍努力靠近她,试着学习她的自信与魅力。⸻6Through her, I met Zack, the class president next door. Tall and delicate-looking, he stood out instantly—and he was the boy Jia-Xin had a crush on.也因为她,我认识了隔壁班的班长——宇哲。他高挑清秀,第一眼就能吸引目光,也是佳欣暗恋的对象。⸻7As time passed, I came to learn about his life. His mother had passed away when he was young, leaving his father to raise him and his sister alone.随着相处时间增长,我也逐渐了解了宇哲的故事。他的母亲在他小时候便过世了,父亲独自抚养他和妹妹。⸻8Despite his hardships, he remained disciplined and hardworking, always ranking near the top. I admired him deeply, and we gradually became friends who shared everything.尽管如此,他仍然自律勤奋,成绩名列前茅,从未让家人担心。我对这样坚强的他充满敬佩,也渐渐与他成了无话不谈的朋友。⸻9Coincidentally, our birthdays were only eleven days apart. On his birthday, Jenny and I celebrated with him. For mine, I didn't expect much, yet he still gave me a gift—a baseball cap, unwrapped, placed on the floor outside my classroom.巧合的是,我们的生日同在同一个月份,仅相差11天。宇哲生日那天,我和佳欣特地为他庆祝。而当我的生日到来时,他给了我一顶没有包装、放在教室门口地上的棒球帽。⸻10I didn't think much of it at the time—boys weren't always thoughtful. But a few days later, he posted an article on the school's online forum, calling me “vain,” even claiming that no one in class liked me.当时我不以为意,心想男孩总是不如女孩细心,却没想到,几天后,他竟在学校的电子论坛上发文,指名道姓地说我“爱慕虚荣”,还写道班上的同学都不喜欢我。⸻11As my eyes moved across those cold, merciless words, my heartbeat grew heavy. I couldn't believe that in the eyes of someone I trusted, I had become that kind of person.当我滑动滑鼠,视线落在那些冰冷而残忍的字眼上,心跳逐渐加快。我无法相信,在我所重视的同学眼中,我竟成了这样的人。⸻12The hurt and humiliation swallowed me whole.那一刻,委屈与羞辱交织,将我吞没。⸻13I spiraled into self-doubt. Every day after school, I would hide in the bathroom and cry under the sound of running water.从那天起,我陷入深深的自我怀疑,每天郁郁寡欢。回家后,我的固定行程变成了躲进浴室,在水流的掩护下哭泣。⸻14This lasted until one day, our teacher said in class, “If anyone feels uncomfortable here, you may apply to transfer.”这样的日子持续了许久,直到某天,Lilian老师在课堂上说:“如果有同学觉得不适应,可以申请转班。”⸻15It was like seeing an escape route from my pain.那一刻,我仿佛看见了逃离痛苦的出口。⸻16I immediately called my father. I expected him to question me or persuade me to stay, but he simply said, “As long as you're happy.”下课后,我立刻拨电话给爸爸,本以为他会细问原因或劝我留下,然而他只是平静地说:“只要妳开心就好。”⸻17The next day, I submitted the transfer form, closing that chapter of darkness.隔天,我便递交了转班申请,正式为这段阴影画上句点。⸻18This was not the first time I had experienced social hurt growing up. I was ignored by friends in elementary school, again in junior high—psychological wounds I didn't recognize as “bullying” until later.这次的事件并非我在求学阶段首次遭遇的人际挑战。小学和国中,我都曾被要好的同学突然当成空气,这些心理创伤直到多年后才被我意识到其实也是一种“霸凌”。⸻19From these experiences, I learned one thing: “The best revenge is becoming a better version of yourself.”那时的我感到无助,也深深受伤,但我学到了一个重要的道理——“最好的复仇方式,就是活出更好的自己。”⸻20So when this happened again, I chose growth. I devoured books on personal development—especially Dale Carnegie'sHow to Win Friends and Influence People.因此,当这次的事情发生时,我选择成长。我开始阅读大量心理成长类书籍,其中卡内基的《如何赢得友谊与影响他人》对我影响最深。

CD 1745 The Message of FaithThe most important message you will ever hear about faith!Boy that sounds like a very bold statement right? But I believe for this time period that we're living in we need to be reminded of the saving grace that comes in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. And that saving grace is at work in a person's life because of faith. So with that thought that's why I say this will be the most important message you've ever heard about faith at least for today! Number one we're saved by faith Number two Faith must grow or in other words faith to faith Number three we must complete our faith or in other words just as we started in faith we must die in faith! *Bro Jason -  Hebrews 11:1-3 (KJV)*Text Matthew 9:27-31 (KJV) And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.  28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.  29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.  30 And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.  31 But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.Matthew 20:29-34 (KJV)29 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.30 And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Jesus passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.31 And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace: but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David.32 And Jesus stood still, and called them, and said, What will ye that I shall do unto you?33 They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.34 So Jesus had compassion on them, and touched their eyes: and immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed him.The two blind menNumber one saved by faith Ephesians 2:1-9 KJVNumber two growing our faithThe King James Version of the Bible offers several key passages on the topic of growing your faith. Rather than one single verse, the concept is woven throughout the New Testament, often connected to other spiritual disciplines.Here are some of the most important verses and passages:1. Romans 10:17This is perhaps the most direct statement on how faith is initiated and grown. * "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."   This verse emphasizes that the primary way to develop and strengthen your faith is by consistently engaging with the Word of God—reading it, hearing it, and studying it.2. 2 Peter 3:18This verse provides a general command to believers to mature in their spiritual walk. * "But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen."   Growing in "grace" and "knowledge" is directly related to growing in faith. The more you know about Christ and His character, the more you can trust and rely on Him.3. James 1:2-4This passage speaks to how trials and tribulations can be a powerful tool for faith development. * "My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."   Here, "temptations" refers to trials or tests.

“Beware lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.' You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth…” - Deuteronomy 8:17-18This passage powerfully reminds us that God owns everything, and we are merely stewards of what He has entrusted to us for a season. Today, Cody Hobelman joins us to discuss how you can establish your first financial finish line.Cody Hobelmann is a Certified Financial Professional (CFP®), a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®), and is the Chief Business Development Officer at Turning Point Financial. He and his brother Kealan founded the Finish Line Pledge and cohost the Finish Line Podcast, where they discuss the intersection of faith, generosity, and personal finance.The Challenge of ProsperityProsperity presents a significant challenge—perhaps more so than hardship. While we live in one of the most prosperous nations in history, this struggle with abundance is not unique to our time.The book of Deuteronomy mentions how the Israelites stood on the edge of the Promised Land after 40 years in the desert. Moses knew that once they entered the land flowing with milk and honey, they would face a new kind of test—not hunger, disease, or war, but the temptation to rely on their own strength rather than God's provision.Just as the Israelites needed a reminder that all wealth belongs to God, we, too, need to set guardrails against the deceptive power of wealth. One of the most effective tools for doing this is the concept of a financial finish line.Five Approaches to GivingBefore diving into how to set a financial finish line, here are five major approaches to giving:Spontaneous Giving—Giving as needs arise, without much planning.A Giving Goal—Setting a target amount to give annually.Percentage Giving—Committing to give a fixed percentage of income.Incremental Percentage Giving—Increasing the percentage of giving over time.A Financial Finish Line—Setting a cap on personal spending, allowing everything beyond that to be given away.The first four methods focus on how much to give, while the financial finish line flips the paradigm. Instead, it asks, “How much do I truly need?” and commits to giving away the excess.Breaking Down the Financial Finish LineSo, how do you actually set a financial finish line? Financial stewardship can be broken down into four key categories:Personal Spending—Lifestyle expenses (housing, food, transportation, etc.).Taxes—The portion owed to the government.Future Planning—Savings for upcoming expenses, investments, and retirement.Kingdom Building—Everything given to ministry, charity, and impact projects.Since lifestyle spending is the primary determinant of financial behavior, the crucial first step is to cap personal spending.Three Methods to Set a Finish LineHere are three practical approaches to setting your first financial finish line:Maintenance Spending Finish Line—Freezing your current lifestyle spending at a set amount, preventing lifestyle creep as income rises. Benchmark Spending Finish Line—Using census data or external benchmarks to determine a reasonable spending cap based on objective measures. The Finish Line Pledge website offers a calculator to help with this (finishlinepledge.com/calculator). Prioritization Spending Finish Line—Evaluating where your money currently goes, eliminating non-essential expenses, and focusing only on what aligns with God's priorities for your life.Whichever method you choose, the goal is the same: determine what is “enough” and dedicate the rest to Kingdom impact. This concept is not just for the wealthy. Defining ‘enough' changes everything; if you never define it, you'll never reach it.Testing your financial finish line for three to six months. Many who do find it transformative—not just financially, but spiritually. It shifts the mindset from ownership to stewardship, freeing us to see money as a tool for God's Kingdom rather than a source of security.Next Steps: Where to BeginTo get started:Visit finishlinepledge.com and explore the calculator.Set a trial finish line for 3–6 months.Adjust over time as you refine what “enough” looks like in your life.Discuss this approach with a Kingdom-minded financial advisor, especially a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA), who can help integrate this principle into a broader financial plan.Setting a financial finish line is a process, not a one-time decision. It's a faith journey that requires intentionality, wisdom, and a willingness to surrender financial control to God.If you're ready to take the next step, check out finishlinepledge.com and consider taking the pledge. It may just transform your relationship with money—and with God.Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineIf you'd like to explore this idea further, you can read Cody's full article, “Setting Your First Finish Line,” in the latest edition of Faithful Steward.You can receive this quarterly magazine and help equip believers with biblical financial wisdom by becoming a FaithFi Partner.

Teacher: Adam Barnett1 John 2:28-29; 3:1aAnd now, dear children, continue in him, so that when he appears we may be confident and unashamed before him at his coming. If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who does what is right has been born of him. See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!John 1:12-13Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God.To be “born of God” specifies the origin of our identities, impulses, motivations, and attitudes.1 - God's children do not live in sin1 John 3:6, 9No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him. No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.6 No one who lives (Greek: menōn = to remain, abide, stay) in him keeps on sinning. 2 - God's children love one another1 John 3:11For this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another."A failure to love others is symptomatic of a failure to love God."-Karen Jobes1 John 3:16-18This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.To lay down your life is to express love through sacrificial and compassionate actions.3 - God's children are confident before the Father1 John 3:19-24This is how we know that we belong to the truth and how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: If our hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us. The one who keeps God's commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.“John says that we can set our hearts at rest whenever they condemn us… for God understands us better than our own hearts know us, and in his omniscience, he knows that our often weak attempts to obey his commands spring from true allegiance to him.”-Howard Marshall

Thinking about this should cause us to think deeper about our salvation.3. Self-control requires a power greater then self. 1. Walk by the Spirit, v. 16To walk by the Spirit is what happens when the desires produced by the Spirit are stronger than the desires produced by the flesh. The Holy Spirit produces desires in us that are in keeping with God's word and lead us into the experience of God's will.“I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.”Ezekiel 36:24-272. Be led by the Spirit, v. 18This means two things…a) not under the laws condemnationb) not under the laws constraintProgression in our posture towards the Holy Spirit…     knowing…..understanding….trusting….enjoying13. Crucify your flesh, v. 24Crucifying the sinful nature is really the identification and dismantling of idols. Crucifying the flesh is about strangling sin at the motivation level, rather than simply setting ourselves against sin at the behavioral level. Real changes in our lives cannot proceed without us discerning the idols and desires that come from our individual sinful nature. Tim Keller     Four root idols that drive our behavior: a) Power: a longing for influence or recognitionb) Control: a longing to have everything go according to my planc) Comfort: a longing for pleasured) Approval: a longing to be accepted or desired“The evil in our desire typically does not lie in what we want, but that we want it too much.”              -John Calvin4. Keep in step with the Spirit, v. 25This means you...Live from the inside out in a world full of people who are living from the outside in. It is to live in bondage to the invisible in a world full of people who live in bondage to the visible. No longer fear getting caught, you fear missing out. Understand that Deep calls out to Deep and you got tired of that producing an echo in you. Don't need external rules because you are now governed by an internal Reality. Mental Worship1. How often do you think about the Holy Spirit?2. Can you feel how the Holy Spirit leads you to be careful when it comes to obedience?3. Where are you in the progression towards the Holy Spirit? Knowing…understanding…trusting…enjoying?4. How well do you relate to the cycle of stopping, starting and quitting?5. Of the four root idols of power, control, comfort and approval, which one do you deal with the most?
