Traditional Worship | Bishop Carolyn Moore |  When we use or hear the phrase “the good life,” the first thing that comes to mind is a life defined by comfort, ease or success. However, throughout Scripture there are many ordinary people who discover that the good life begins when they respond to God's call to live fully in His purposes and plans. This sermon series takes a look at five characters in the Bible who are called, equipped, awakened, engaged and empowered to trust God completely. It is a unique perspective that calls upon all of us to pursue the good life. 

Biblical Fellowship is God's people living life together. Actually supporting one another to live out our faith in a manner that honors the Lord.

Send us Fan MailCookie Kryptonite: Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirls & The Psychology of Cravings! Welcome back to the lab, where this week Chris is playing the role of a culinary supervillain! Equipped with a recipe from the legendary baking blog Sally's Baking Addiction, Chris heads to the ovens to bake Soft Baked Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip Swirl Cookies. His ultimate goal? To construct the absolute perfect "kryptonite" cookie designed to completely dismantle Jill's willpower. Before we even get to the mixing bowl, we travel back to the early 20th century to explore the history of the classic pinwheel cookie. We trace its rise during the Art Deco movement, explaining how the era's obsession with geometric symmetry, bold contrast, and hypnotic spirals leaped from architecture directly onto the bakery trays of the 1920s and 30s, turning the humble cookie into a modern canvas of design.Once our history lesson wraps up, we move straight to the tasting table to see if Chris's sinister plan actually works. We watch in real time as Jill takes a bite of the hypnotically swirled, ultra-soft chocolate dough studded with rich peanut butter chips and immediately succumbs to its powers. We share our unfiltered reactions to the incredible texture and discuss how the decadent contrast of dark cocoa and salty-sweet peanut butter completely overwhelms the senses, proving that Chris's targeted strike was a devastating success.Finally, we close out the episode with a fascinating investigation into the psychology of attraction and food cravings. We expose the science behind "sensory-specific satiety" and the highly engineered "bliss point"—the precise combination of sugar, fat, and salt that overrides our brain's satiety signals. Chris breaks down the mental mapping required to identify someone's deepest flavor triggers, teaching you exactly how to analyze a target's nostalgic food memories to bake a personalized "kryptonite" cookie of your very own. It is an episode packed with design history, sweet mind-control, and the manipulative psychology of your favorite comfort foods!Click here to shop at the Cookie Lab StoreJoin our FB Group for free access to the Cookie Recipe!https://www.facebook.com/groups/429934808628615Follow us on TikTok to see how we make the cookieswrite to us at cookielabpod@gmail.com

Many spiritual battles don't begin with the circumstances around us. They begin with what is happening within us. In this session, we study Ephesians 6:10–18 and take a closer look at one of the central pieces of the Armor of God: the breastplate of righteousness. Just as a soldier's breastplate protected the heart and lungs from life-threatening attacks, we explore what God's righteousness protects within the believer and what it truly means to "put on" the breastplate when shame, guilt, condemnation, and accusation begin to speak the loudest.Together, we trace the story of righteousness from the Garden of Eden and humanity's fall into sin, through God's promise of redemption, and ultimately to the finished work of Jesus Christ. Along the way, we discover that righteousness is not a spiritual achievement earned through effort or good behavior. It is a restored relationship and right standing with God that is freely received through grace by faith in Christ alone. This foundational truth changes not only how we understand salvation but also how we approach every spiritual battle we face.The session examines why legalism, rule-keeping, and self-effort can never produce the peace that comes from genuine righteousness. We look closely at 2 Corinthians 5:21 and its powerful declaration that Christ took our sin so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. We also explore Ephesians 2:8–10, seeing how Paul beautifully holds together salvation by grace and the call to good works without allowing Christianity to become a religion of performance. Good works are not the means of earning God's acceptance but the natural fruit of a life transformed by His grace.We also spend time discussing an important practice that many believers overlook: confession and repentance are not reserved only for the moment of salvation. They remain essential parts of the ongoing process of sanctification, helping us maintain close fellowship with God, guard our hearts from the enemy's accusations, and respond quickly whenever the Holy Spirit brings conviction. Rather than living under condemnation, we learn to walk in the freedom and confidence that come from continually receiving God's grace.The session concludes with a memorable picture of our new identity in Christ. Like a young child joyfully dressing up in a father's oversized clothes and confidently declaring, "You can call me Pops," believers have been welcomed into the family of God. We don't wear Christ's righteousness because we've earned it; we wear it because we've been adopted, and His righteousness has become our own.Whether you've struggled with shame, wrestled with guilt, questioned your standing before God, or simply want a stronger biblical understanding of spiritual warfare, this session offers both theological depth and practical encouragement. Come discover how the breastplate of righteousness guards the heart, strengthens your confidence in Christ, and equips you to stand firm in the victory that Jesus has already won.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

Kyle Kauffman | Jul 12 2026 1 Corinthians 14 has long been a controversial passage with Christians taking different positions on the gifts described in this passage along with their enduring significance for the church today. While it is important to understand the different positions Christians may take in this area, we can get so caught up in the theological debate that we can forget Paul is calling all of us to use whatever gifts we have been given in a way that builds up the church in dependence on reliance on the Holy Spirit. God gives us spiritual gifts so that we might be equipped to love one another. What does that mean in relation to gifts like prophecy and tongues as well as in relation to all spiritual gifts? How should that shape how we think about and exercise spiritual gifts? Join us this Sunday as we explore these questions in looking together at 1 Corinthians 14.

When God calls you He equips you.  But God will rarely equip you with all you need at the beginning.  When God supplies He is usually not early, but He is never too late.  In the story of Abraham and Isaac we see how Abraham's obedience and faith released great blessing.  And we also see the a beautiful picture of God offering His own Son on the cross.

“What is truth?” can sound like an abstract philosophical question until it begins surfacing in everyday life—in marriage tensions, parenting challenges, workplace conflict, and a culture where competing voices never seem to stop. In this session, we begin by reading through Ephesians 5 and 6, observing the many relationships Paul addresses before introducing the Armor of God. His progression reminds us that when life becomes difficult, we don't simply need better techniques or a longer list of rules. We need strength beyond ourselves, and that strength is found in the Lord as we learn to stand in the armor He provides.From there, we slow down to examine the very first piece of armor Paul describes in Ephesians 6: the belt of truth. We explore why truth is not an optional accessory but the foundation upon which every other piece of armor depends. Without truth, nothing else holds together. More importantly, we discover that Jesus presents truth as far more than a collection of facts or accurate information. Truth is ultimately found in the character of God and revealed fully in Christ Himself.The session also considers Pilate's famous question in John 18, “What is truth?” and how it reflects the same exhaustion many people experience today. Surrounded by endless opinions, conflicting narratives, bias, and skepticism, it's easy to become cynical or simply disengage. We also take an honest look at our own hearts, recognizing how often we “varnish” the truth to protect ourselves, preserve our reputation, or avoid uncomfortable realities. In many cases, self-protection quietly becomes the driving force behind compromise.As we conclude, we focus on a practical path forward. Rather than treating truth as something we define for ourselves, we're invited to receive Scripture as God's unchanging standard. Like a measuring tape that provides an objective reference, God's Word becomes the guide by which every other claim is evaluated. Instead of placing ourselves above Scripture as its judge, we learn to place ourselves beneath it as willing disciples, allowing God's truth to shape our thinking, our relationships, and our decisions.Along the way, we examine key biblical passages about truth, discuss the importance of discernment in an increasingly noisy culture, and remember the spiritual reality that Scripture identifies the devil as “a liar and the father of lies.” Understanding this helps us recognize why truth is foundational in spiritual warfare and why fastening on the belt of truth is the first step toward standing firm.Whether you're seeking greater clarity in confusing circumstances, stronger relationships built on honesty, or a faith that remains steady in a world of competing voices, this session offers a biblical framework for living in the truth. Come discover why truth is not merely something we know, but something we embrace as we learn to stand confidently in the strength and wisdom of God.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

What if the greatest authority you carry isn't found in what you say, but in the alignment of your heart?In this powerful message from the CIM Conference, Bill Vanderbush continues unpacking themes from his book The Sound of Your Blood. Through stories, Scripture, and profound insight, Bill explores the hidden years of Jesus, the illusion of separation, the authority of silence, and the transformative power of living in union with God.This conversation challenges many of the assumptions we've inherited about faith, authority, confession, and spiritual growth. Instead of striving to get God to act, what if the invitation is to align with what God has already accomplished? What if righteousness, peace, and joy are not distant goals, but present realities flowing from your union with Christ?00:00 - Introduction & Bill Vanderbush Series02:21 - Jesus Enjoyed Being Human03:41 - The Hidden Years of Jesus05:10 - Christ Lives Fully in You06:22 - The Illusion of Separation07:50 - Learning to Love One Another08:49 - The Power of Words and Sound09:11 - The Hurricane Story and True Faith11:18 - The Sound of Your Spirit11:48 - Adam, Eve, and the Transfer of Authority13:32 - Jesus Reclaims All Authority14:59 - Authority Through Alignment16:31 - The Words That Make You Clean17:48 - Isaiah's Unclean Lips19:25 - Purity, Grace, and the Finished Work20:20 - Confession as Alignment21:41 - What It Really Means to Believe23:26 - Discovering Your True Identity24:23 - Filled with the Fullness of Joy27:38 - Speaking So You Won't Stumble28:19 - Grace, Consequences, and Wisdom30:07 - Freedom Guided by Love31:33 - Peace in the Midst of Trouble32:27 - Equipped for Every Obstacle33:09 - Righteousness, Peace, and Joy33:42 - The Kingdom Frequency Within You
