Today's episode is brought to you by Children's HopeChest, an organization that's rethinking global missions in all the right ways.Here's what I love about their model: They don't just step into a community and create long-term dependency. They invest in local leaders, build sustainable plans, and have a clear exit strategy—empowering people rather than creating a system where they always need outside help. As a pastor, I spent a long time looking for a global mission partner that actually helps without hurting, and HopeChest checks all the right boxes.Global mission work isn't optional for the Church—it's part of our calling. So if your church doesn't have a solid global partner yet (or if you're looking for one that actually works), it's time to get in the game. How? Start with a vision trip. This summer, HopeChest is leading trips to Guatemala, Uganda, and Ethiopia—and you should go.Check them out and sign up at www.hopechest.org/lutheran. Huge thanks to HopeChest for sponsoring Season 8 and for doing missions the right way.Resources mentioned in the episode: 1517.orgLimping With God by Chad BirdThe Christ Key: Unlocking the Centrality of Christ in the Old Testament by Chad BirdKey insights from the episode: The Psalms saved my life. - Chad BirdIn our limping, we learn how to steward our pain. - Chad BirdDiscipleship is all about following in the footsteps of our Lord. - Chad BirdWhen you're with Jesus, you're always safe. - Chad BirdImagine all the heroes of the Bible as your next-door neighbors. - Chad BirdChad Bird's Challenge: Pick a short book of the Bible and read or listen to it every day this week.

The five targets are Being, Forgiving, Serving, Giving, and Going.In partnership with LifeWay Research, we created a Red Letter Challenge Assessment that will measure you according to these five targets.

In the rest of chapter 5, Jesus is going to endorse the moral law and give his interpretation of it. But before he does that, he wants to make sure that we understand how he views the Scripture, God's Word. Jesus wants us to know the TRUSTWORTHINESS of God's Word, the CENTRALITY of its message, and its place in our RELATIONSHIP with him. This morning it is Jesus' doctrine of Scripture.

Join us this week as Caleb teaches about Jesus being at the center of the Christian faith. You will be challenged to live like Jesus and prize him above all else. Some discussion questions this week include: Why is Jesus at the center of the Christian faith? What other things (even good things!) do you see people put at the center of the Christian faith? What do you think it means to live like Jesus? What are some ways in which you can grow in becoming more like Jesus? What things inside (or outside) of the Christian faith are we tempted to prize or pursue more than Jesus? What do you often prize or pursue more than Jesus?

Giventhat there is no perfect church, what effect does Paul's attitude ofgratefulness and encouragement have on the life of a local church?Writing his letter to the Philippians while in prison, Paul's focus was not onhimself and his situation, but on the church he loved. How can you keep your focus on the welfare and progress of others even when you find yourself in difficult circumstances?Paul's encouragement was reinforced with his prayers for the Philippian church (vv. 4 and 9), challenging them to greater effective-ness. Discuss among your group the different aspects of church life that you can pray for. How faithful are you in praying for FBC?Read Paul's prayer in verses 9 through 11. What factors can produce spiritual complacency in the life of a believer? How would you describe your spiritual progress at this time as it compares to Paul's prayer?Read verse 6 and reflect back on your spiritual life to this point. Are you discouraged about your life situation right now? If so, have the group pray for you that you can rest in God's promise in this verse.Mission Prayer FocusThe Jat people, numbering over 13 million hold great pride in their ancestry and maintain strong clan identities.

Bible Study Don't just take our word for it . . . take His! We would encourage you to spend time examining the following Scriptures that shaped this sermon: Colossians 4:2–18; Luke 21:34–36. Sermon Outline Applying the Centrality and Supremacy of Christ: Prayer The Way The Christian life is a praying life (v.2) Watchful Thankful The praying life is a gospel life (vv.3–4) Apostle Paul, exhibit A The Wisdom The wisdom that comes from prayer transforms the way we view others. (v.5) The wisdom that comes from prayer transforms the way we invest our time. (v.5) The wisdom that comes from prayer transforms the way we use our words. (v.6) The wisdom that comes from prayer transforms the way we rank our priorities. (vv.4, 6) The Work Seven patterns for imitation. Act like the answer to your prayer. (vv.7–9) Pray for outsiders. (vv.10–11) Win the battle of the threshold. (vv.12–13) Grow heavenly-minded through suffering. (vv.14) Put your unchosen state of life at the disposal of God. (v.15–16) Execute every order you receive. (v.17) Keep the main thing the main thing. (v.18)   Sermon Questions Dick Lucas points out that Paul first teaches how to speak to God about people, then how to speak to people about God. What did you learn about each subject from this passage? Do you feel that you know in daily experience "the unsearchable riches of Christ" (Eph. 3:8)? Are you persevering in daily secret prayer? Why or why not? Did any of the seven patterns in vv.7–18 surprise or strike you? Which one? If you know and love Jesus, but are spotty at meeting with him in daily prayer, determine why that is. What needs to give way to make the space you need to seek the King's face? Resources Consulted Doug Moo, Colossians and Philemon, PNTC (2nd ed.)

This week we study the twelve tribes of Israel and the tribe of Dan's connection to the Antichrist.

This week we study the twelve tribes of Israel and the tribe of Dan's connection to the Antichrist.

Often it's difficult to discern through all the still functioning periphery that our center has been lost. However when our center, Jesus, has been lost we've been completely immobilized and unable to accomplish what we're actually designed to do. We're releasing grace now to become so centered on Jesus that we're able to effectively preach the finished work of the gospel of Jesus Christ!   The Homestead Mobile - September 27th, 2024
