What if the biggest problem in your life isn't the people around you… but who's sitting on the throne of your heart? This week's message from Colossians 3 dives into one of the most misunderstood and misused parts of Scripture - household codes. But what if they're not about control or power? What if they're actually about freedom, love, and surrender?In a world chasing status and authority, Jesus flips the script. He doesn't call us to rule over one another - He calls us to serve. He calls us to submit to Him, and through Him, to one another in humility and love. When the peace of Christ rules your heart, it changes everything - your marriage, your parenting, your friendships, your future.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

The Scriptures speak very explicitly of the importance of both inward and outward holiness. One issue specifically addressed is the wearing of items that reflect inner pride and immodesty. The “gold” in our lives should be found on the inside, that is, a spirit that is in alignment with God's Word and is truly Christ-like. 11/09/2023 - Thursday NightScriptures Used (In Order of Occurrence):I Peter 3:1-5I Corinthians 10:23I Timothy 2:8-10Genesis 35:4Exodus 32:20Exodus 33:4-6Exodus 35:22Numbers 31:50Deuteronomy 7:25-26Judges 8:24-27Ezekiel 16:11-17Isaiah 3:16-26Hosea 2:13Jeremiah 4:30Ezekiel 23:40I Timothy 2:8-10I Peter 3:3-5Psalm 149:4Supplemental Scriptures:Galatians 6:22-25I Corinthians 12:2, 14:1Ephesians 5:27I Thessalonians 4:1-4, 5:22I Timothy 2:9-10II Corinthians 6:17, 7:1Ephesians 5:21Philippians 2:3I Corinthians 8:9-13, 10:32Ephesians 2:10Titus 1:16James 2:17-18Ephesians 4:14-15Hebrews 6:1, 10:23-28James 2:14, 2:26, 4:8Job 42:11Genesis 24:53, 13:2Exodus 3:22, 11:2Genesis 35:1-4Exodus 32 & 33, 35:22Deuteronomy 17:17
Has anybody ever told you to believe in yourself? Or to follow your heart? On the surface these words appear to be encouraging, but dig into the Bible and you'll find that “encouragement” is actually bad advice.As Christian communicators and business owners, it's imperative that we discern between worldly wisdom and God's wisdom, especially when it comes to how we manage the call God has placed on our lives. In this episode of The Inspired Business Podcast, we're dissecting three pieces of popular advice and revealing why the opposite is actually a wiser approach.Highlights:Recognizing the actual source of your value and why it takes the pressure offTrusting that God will open and close the right doors, even if they aren't the ones you picked in the first placeWhat the definition of insanity gets wrongResources mentioned in this episode:Hebrews 13:20-21Philippians 2:13John 15:5Ephesians 3:20-21Are you a digital marketing genius?

Jordan Massey starts off our series entitled "RED: Radical Every Day", focusing on the words of Jesus, which are world-changing!FOR SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION/PERSONAL REFLECTION"Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me." (Luke 9:23)Matthew 16:21-26Why did Peter react as he did?Why did Jesus rebuke Peter so strongly?How does power work in God's Kingdom?What is the difference between Kingdom power and worldly power?Luke 9:23-26Why is self-denial crucial for a disciple of Jesus?What are the hardest areas of self-denial in your life?Jordan mentioned one of the most radical words in Luke 9 is DAILY. What keeps you from pursuing anything DAILY?What can you start or stop doing so you can become a person who is consistent on a daily basis?"The cross" was associated with being a revolutionary in this time. Why should we view Jesus as a “revolutionary” leader? In what ways do you consider yourself a revolutionary in this world?For further study on Self Sacrifice & Self Denial:Mark 10:41-45John 12:23-26Acts 4:32-32; 5:40-42Romans 6:1-141 Corinthians 9:19-23Galatians 2:19-21Philippians 2:3-8Colossians 3:1-13How are you doing at denying yourself as you follow Jesus?

Heaven is a holy place; have you even considered that Holiness is Happiness and the sheer pleasure of living where there is no sin? Sermons Archive RSS Isaiah 6:1-7Psalm 11Revelation 21:27,6:112 Corinthians 5:21Philippians 3:8-9Colossians 3:101 John 3:1-3Hebrews 12:22-24Ephesians 1:4 Perfect tranquillity and joy in heaven. — Charity, or holy and humble Christian love, is a principle of wonderful power to give ineffable quietness and tranquillity to the soul. It banishes all disturbance, and sweetly composes and brings rest to the spirit, and makes all divinely calm and sweet and happy. In that soul where divine love reigns and is in lively exercise, nothing can cause a storm, or even gather threatening clouds.There are many principles contrary to love, that make this world like a tempestuous sea. Selfishness, and envy, and revenge, and jealousy, and kindred passions keep life on earth in a constant tumult, and make it a scene of confusion and uproar, where no quiet rest is to be enjoyed except in renouncing this world and looking to another. But oh! what rest is there in that world which the God of peace and love fills with his own gracious presence, and in which the Lamb of God lives and reigns, filling it with the brightest and sweetest beams of his love; where there is nothing to disturb or offend, and no being or object to be seen that is not surrounded with perfect amiableness and sweetness; where the saints shall find and enjoy all that they love, and so be perfectly satisfied; where there is no enemy and no enmity; but perfect love in every heart and to every being; where there is perfect harmony among all the inhabitants, no one envying another, but everyone rejoicing in the happiness of every other; where all their love is humble and holy, and perfectly Christian, without the least carnality or impurity; where love is always mutual and reciprocated to the full; where there is no hypocrisy or dissembling, but perfect simplicity and sincerity; where there is no treachery, or unfaithfulness, or inconstancy, or jealousy in any form; where there is no clog or hindrance to the exercises or expressions of love, no imprudence or indecency in expressing it, and no influence of folly or indiscretion in any word or deed; where there is no separation wall, and no misunderstanding or strangeness, but full acquaintance and perfect intimacy in all; where there is no division through different opinions or interests, but where all in that glorious and loving society shall be most nearly and divinely related, and each shall belong to every other, and all shall enjoy each other in perfect prosperity and riches, and honor, without any sickness, or grief, or persecution, or sorrow, or any enemy to molest them, or any busybody to create jealousy or misunderstanding, or mar the perfect, and holy, and blessed peace that reigns in heaven! And all this in the garden of God — in the paradise of love, where everything is filled with love, and everything conspires to promote and kindle it, and keep up its flame, and nothing ever interrupts it, but everything has been fitted by an all-wise God for its full enjoyment under the greatest advantages forever! And all, too, where the beauty of the beloved objects shall never fade, and love shall never grow weary nor decay, but the soul shall more and more rejoice in love forever!Oh! what tranquillity will there be in such a world as this! And who can express the fullness and blessedness of this peace! What a calm is this! How sweet, and holy, and joyous! What a haven of rest to enter, after having passed through the storms and tempests of this world, in which pride, and selfishness, and envy, and malice, and scorn, and contempt, and contention, and vice, are as waves of a restless ocean, always rolling, and often dashed about in violence and fury! What a Canaan of rest to come to, after going through this waste and howling wilderness, full of snares, and pitfalls, and poisonous serpents, where no rest could be found!And oh! what joy will there be, springing up in the hearts of the saints, after they have passed through their wearisome pilgrimage, to be brought to such a paradise as this! Here is joy unspeakable indeed, and full of glory — joy that is humble, holy, enrapturing, and divine in its perfection! Love is always a sweet principle; and especially divine love. This, even on earth, is a spring of sweetness; but in heaven it shall become a stream, a river, an ocean! All shall stand about the God of glory, who is the great fountain of love, opening, as it were, their very souls to be filled with those effusions of love that are poured forth from his fullness, just as the flowers on the earth, in the bright and joyous days of spring, open their bosoms to the sun, to be filled with his light and warmth, and to flourish in beauty and fragrancy under his cheering rays.Every saint in heaven is as a flower in that garden of God, and holy love is the fragrance and sweet odor that they all send forth, and with which they fill the bowers of that paradise above. Every soul there, is as a note in some concert of delightful music, that sweetly harmonizes with every other note, and all together blend in the most rapturous strains in praising God and the Lamb forever. And so all help each other, to their utmost, to express the love of the whole society to its glorious Father and Head, and to pour back love into the great fountain of love whence they are supplied and filled with love, and blessedness, and glory. And thus they will love, and reign in love, and in that godlike joy that is its blessed fruit, such as eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor hath ever entered into the heart of man in this world to conceive; and thus in the full sunlight of the throne, enraptured with joys that are forever increasing, and yet forever full, they shall live and reign with God and Christ forever and ever! — Jonathan Edwards: Heaven, a World of Love Jonathan Edwards Heaven, a World of LoveSermon discussion topics for parents to use with their children:Why is Heaven a holy place?How can we go there if this is true?How will we be changed?What is it like to be perfectly holy?How is holiness and happiness related?What did you feel when heaven was being described?Do you want to go there?
"What Would You Do If? Overcoming the Limits to an Extravagant, Faith-filled Life”In this new series, we’re going to look at some of the biggest obstacles that get in the way of us experiencing the abundant life God wants to give to us. In fact, this weekend, we’re going to look at the #1 barrier to an extravagant, faith-filled life.What Would You Do If…“Self Was Not Your Focus”definition of sin = doing what I want to do, instead of what GOD wants to do#1.

The case for selflessness – Philippians 2: 3-11more selfless living would mean…a. there would be much less sin in my life – Philippians 2: 3, 5Romans 6: 6Luke 9: 23-25I Corinthians 15: 31Galatians 5: 19-21b. I would be free to serve in any situation - Philippians 2: 4, 6-8c. I would experience a more powerful life - Philippians 2: 9-11
