Title: The Assurance of Things Hoped ForSpeaker: Rob BerrethScripture: Hebrews 11:4–7Episode Overview:In this message from Hebrews 11:4–7, we are reminded that the only way to please God is by faith. Abel, Enoch, and Noah each reveal how genuine belief shapes our lives: offering our first and best to God, walking with Him as our greatest reward, and obeying His Word even when it seems unreasonable. Before any doing comes believing—the foundation of our confidence is in Christ's finished work. And yet, by faith, we can live in ways that bring joy to the heart of our Father.Key Highlights:• Faith before works: Why Hebrews insists that believing precedes doing.• Abel's offering: Giving God our first and best because He is worthy.• Enoch's walk: Communion with God as the greatest reward.• Noah's obedience: Trusting God's Word even when it defies human reasoning.• Life application: How faith changes our posture toward God's promises and commands.Call to Action:Ask yourself today: Am I living more like Abel or Cain? Am I treating God as first and best, walking daily with Him, and submitting to His Word? Take a step of faith this week—whether through generosity, intentional time with God, or obedience to His Word—and delight in knowing that by faith, your Father in heaven is pleased.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

In Nehemiah 10, God's people pledged to live fully committed to Him—separating from the world and giving their best in worship, time, and obedience. In this message, we'll be challenged to do the same: to give God our best and encourage others to walk in full devotion.

He offers guidance based on God's law while also considering their current circumstances. He emphasizes that marriage is good and serves as a way to avoid sexual immorality. They must recognize that the marriage commitment is crucial, as he advises them to reject divorce and, if they do divorce, to either remain unmarried or seek reconciliation. Even if married to an unbeliever, commitment and faithfulness can lead to the spouse's salvation. Furthermore, there is value in singleness, as it promotes an undivided focus on God. He advises believers to remain in their current situations, as persecution is approaching for God's people. In every situation, “undistracted devotion to the Lord” is the goal and necessary for both married and single Christians. Christians face various seasons of life, including singleness, marriage, or widowhood. Paul reminds us in I Corinthians 7 that each of these situations is an opportunity to serve God faithfully. Whether married or single, we should focus on honoring God with undivided devotion. In marriage, this means a loving commitment to our spouse, reflecting Christ's faithfulness. For singles, it means embracing the freedom to serve God without distraction. Paul also encourages us to trust God's plan and remain content in the situations He has called us to, knowing He works for our good. This mindset should be evident to the world as we live in purity, faithfulness, and commitment to God's purposes, reflecting His glory in all relationships and circumstances. Giving God, who provides all that we need for life and godliness, thank You for the benefits of marriage. For the married, we commit to faithfulness and patience, living out Your purposes and uplifting souls in our home and everywhere our family has influence. For the unmarried, we pray for their strength to have hope in You, and to use this stage in life to accomplish incredible things in Your kingdom. In whatever circumstance, prepare us to be devoted to You regardless of persecution or trial. Give us contentment where we are and wisdom in whatever may come next. Thought Questions: - Describe the commitment God designed for marriage. What level of trust should exist? How strongly should we work to avoid divorce? - Is it possible for an unbelieving spouse to be “sanctified through” their spouse? How should this encourage believers married to unbelievers? - Singleness is not discussed enough among God's people. In this chapter, what are the advantages for someone who is not currently married?
In this week's episode, we will discuss giving God our leftovers. We will discuss different ways we give Him our leftovers, what He thinks about our leftovers and more. Scripture discussed: Malachi 1:6-14, Acts 17:24-25, Psalm 50:9-13.follow me on instagram! https://instagram.com/braxtenhmfollow me on tik tok! https://www.tiktok.com/@UCKFDLPcSq_V1LP76Kq4HL1g

Giving God's Way - Matthew 6:2-4
Introduction The Word of God will set people free. The Word of God and the Holy Spirit can do what man's counsel cannot. Encouragement to heed the Word of God. Psalms 106 Reading Psalms 106, focusing on specific verses: Verse 1: Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord for He is good, for His mercy endureth forever. Verse 8: Nevertheless, He saved them for His name's sake that He might make His mighty power to be known. The psalmist is declaring his glory to God. The psalmist is sharing disturbing things from the history of Israel. God is merciful, more than anyone. The psalmist wants to thank God for His goodness. Acknowledging the need to praise, thank, and honor God. Questioning how many are willing to worship God in hard times. Expressing gratitude for not having to go to hell and for waking up with God's grace. Acknowledging that God hasn't lost any of His power. God is the Answer There are days when praising God is difficult. The devil has answers, but God is the ultimate answer. The Word of God is what is needed in times of need. The psalmist is sharing disturbing things from the history of Israel. Admitting that there are few days when things feel right. Expressing the need for God's grace daily. When missing the mark, grab hope and ask for more grace. Remembering God People forget what God has done for them. They get wrapped up in worldly things. The need to remember God every day. Depending on God is essential. There are things that grieve and trouble the soul. The calling to preach the Word of God is a demand from God. It is important to preach the Word of God. The psalmist is teaching to remind and open memories of Israel's wrongdoings. Giving God praise for mercy and grace. Standing at the foot of the cross like everyone else. God has been good to everyone. Sin and Forgiveness Admitting to having sinned with ancestors. Needing God's forgiveness. Without God, everyone would be in hell. Fathers did not understand the wonders in Egypt. They did not remember the multitude of mercies. God had done so many miracles in Egypt. Before they got to the sea, they forgot. Without God, we would be lost. How many have had God do miracles? Sometimes we do not understand the wonders He has done. The flesh is wicked and prone to fail. Losing minds over things when God touches us. Forgetting miracles that were marveled at. Not excluding oneself from that company. Everything in the heart has already been filtered by God. Forgetting the multitude of mercy. Needing to be reminded of going to heaven and not hell. Being poked to remember God's wonders. God's mercies are miraculous. Forgetting the wonders and mercies. Provoking God At the Red Sea, the fire and cloud went behind them. The Egyptians couldn't see them. Despite this, they provoked God. They challenged Moses, saying they were brought out to die in the wilderness. People provoke God by being unbelieving. Nevertheless, God commended His love. Christ died for sinners. God saved them because of His namesake, not because of them. God will straighten people out even though they provoke Him. God was sending a statement to the world that these are His people. Moses was told to have the people stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. Moses stretched the rod out over the water. An east wind blew all night, parting the water. They went across on dry ground. Wondering what they felt like when they stepped out on the other side. That feeling is in you. Forgetting God's wonders and mercies will provoke God. You are not above sin. He led them through the depths as through the wilderness. He saved them from their enemies. The waters covered their enemies. Then they believed His words and sang His praise. The very next verse, they got thirsty and hungry.
No one knows how to reward like our Heavenly Father. As a Father who offered His Best in Jesus, He is moved when we trust Him by offering our best. The reward of offering our best is culminated in us being trusted with what is in His heart, and trusted with the resources and power reserved for those who can be trusted. In this powerful message, Ps. Colin encourages us to be among those people.
God is moving in your life, but you need to see and feel His Spirit moving before you. When you're able to see and give Him the praise for it, it bolsters your faith and becomes a story to share with others. These moments are necessary for you and helpful for others. Look for God to move today and share the news with someone. Don't be discouraged if they don't yet understand. 1 Corinthians 2:14-16 14 The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. 15 The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. 16 “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of ChristFollowing Jesus and enjoying life are not opposite ends of the spectrum.

The post Giving God Our Best In The Supper appeared first on Woodland Hills Church of Christ.
Every day we are investing into small and big things. Whether it's our family, hobbies, work, church, or anything in between. Our lifestyle reflects our priorities. This message will focus on making God the main priority in our lives so that we live a life fully devoted to him rather than just giving him our leftovers. Because giving God our leftovers is very…CHRISTIAN-ISH.
1 Chronicles 16 reminds us that gratitude isn't seasonal—it's continual. God is good and His love never ends, so our praise shouldn't either. This message calls us to thank God for who He is, how He saves, and the security He offers. Every breath is reason to say “Amen” and give Him glory.
Join us each week as Dr. Justin Dancer brings the word of God to life and applies it to our lives.
Paul tells the church at Galatia, “Yall were running the race with all you had, exerting all the effort you could, but something happened and it has hindered your running.” What happened? Circumcision. It's hard to run when you've had a knife cut into private part! That is a lot of pain and it takes a little while to heal up! Paul uses two words in the Greek to explain what he means by “hinder” but we don't fully grasp it in the English translations. Check out this podcast to see what Paul means and ask. Yourself this question, “Am I giving my all for Jesus? For the kingdom? Or is something hindering me from fully serving him?
What captivates your attention daily? While most of us readily admit that our spiritual life deserves priority, our actual time allocation often tells a different story. This thought-provoking episode challenges us to examine the disparity between what we claim to value and where we invest our hours.Jesse Cope delivers a powerful wake-up call about our digital distractions, asking pointed questions about how much time we dedicate to streaming services, social media scrolling, mobile games, and sports compared to prayer and scripture reading. The message hits home: our calendar and screen time reveal our true priorities far more accurately than our intentions.Drawing from Matthew 16, we explore Jesus's paradoxical teaching that "whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it." This foundation helps us understand authentic discipleship as a path requiring genuine sacrifice—something increasingly countercultural in our comfort-oriented society.The episode gains remarkable perspective through stories of Medal of Honor recipients from the Civil War through Vietnam, whose extraordinary sacrifices highlight how misaligned our modern priorities often become. These accounts seamlessly connect to historical accounts of early Christian martyrs who faced death for their faith, reminding us that Christians continue to face persecution globally today.Rather than offering simple solutions, this episode confronts us with what Jesus called the question of a lifetime: "Who do you say that I am?" Your answer fundamentally shapes everything else—including how you'll spend the next 24 hours. Join us for this challenging examination of what truly deserves your precious time and attention.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe
