Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Kings 5:19-27 as part of our sermon series on Gifts of the King. God's discipline differs fundamentally from punishment, with discipline focused on growth and restoration while punishment deals with past wrongs. Through Gehazi's story in 2 Kings 5, we learn that believers experience discipline rather than punishment due to Christ's sacrifice. While all Christians remain under God's loving discipline, not all suffering indicates sin. Understanding this distinction helps us recognize God's role as a loving Father who shapes His children's character rather than a harsh punisher.
Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Kings 5:1-14 as part of the "Gifts of the King" Sermon Series. True restoration involves being reformed into the person God intended from creation. Through Naaman's story, we learn that God's path to restoration is straightforward yet often challenging to accept. The process requires giving up control, embracing humility, and developing patience. Key steps include honestly naming areas needing restoration, building a daily relationship with Jesus, and connecting with supportive fellow believers. While complete restoration awaits in heaven, God offers ways to begin healing through kingdom living.
Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Kings 4:38-41 as part of the Gifts of the King Sermon Series. In times of famine, a deadly situation arose when poisonous wild gourds were accidentally added to a pot of stew meant for the prophets' sons. This story from 2 Kings 4:38-41 illustrates how sin poisoned God's perfect creation, affecting all humanity. Just as Elisha used flour to neutralize the poison, Jesus became the ultimate solution to sin's deadly effects through His death and resurrection. While believers may still struggle with sin's residual effects, transformation is possible through Christ's power, support from others, and practical steps toward change.
Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Kings 4:1-7 as part of our Gifts of the King Sermon Series. The biblical account of Elisha and the widow's oil reveals profound truths about God's compassionate nature and the power of generosity. God demonstrates His care for individual struggles by miraculously providing for a desperate widow facing debt and potential loss of her children. This narrative teaches that God has unlimited resources at His disposal and often works through the generosity of others. The ultimate message centers on breaking the power of money in our lives by recognizing Jesus as our true treasure, leading to a life of sacrificial giving and genuine freedom.

Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Kings 4:25-37 as part of the sermon series on Elisha the prophet, connecting the story with the power of Jesus's resurrection. The story of the Shunammite woman demonstrates profound truths about hope triumphing over grief. After receiving a miraculous son through the prophet Elisha, she faced devastating loss when the child died. Instead of accepting death, she demonstrated remarkable faith by placing her son in Elisha's bed and seeking the prophet's help. Her declaration that 'all is well' amid tragedy reveals a deep understanding that hope, through God's power, ultimately defeats grief. This ancient story connects to the eternal hope we have through Christ's resurrection, showing that while grief is temporary, hope is eternal.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Gideon, with scripture from Judges 7:1-8. God's power can shine bright through those who feel inadequate or ill-equipped. Through Gideon's transformation from a fearful man hiding in a winepress to a mighty warrior leading just 300 men to victory, we see God's pattern of using unlikely heroes. This truth continues today, as demonstrated by untouchable women in India who, despite minimal resources and education, are successfully planting churches and transforming communities. The key isn't human capability but rather availability and trust in God's power.
James Harper reflects on Gideon with scripture from Judges 7: 1-8.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Peter, with scripture from Matthew 16:13-23. Peter's journey from fisherman to church leader demonstrates that faith develops through both triumphs and failures. Despite being one of Jesus' closest disciples, Peter experienced significant ups and downs - from boldly declaring Jesus as the Christ to denying Him three times. His story reveals how God shows patience with our failures, uses our imperfections to highlight His grace, and can transform any life story that centers on Jesus. Through Peter's example, we learn that authentic faith journeys don't require perfection to be powerfully used by God.
James Harper reflects on Peter with scripture from Luke 22:31-34.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Thomas, with scripture from John 20:24-29. Thomas, one of Jesus's twelve disciples, was known for his analytical mind and need to question things. Rather than condemning his doubts, Jesus met Thomas where he was, even inviting him to touch his wounds after the resurrection. This demonstrates that God is not threatened by our questions and responds with patience and compassion to doubt. Different paths to faith are valid, whether through immediate acceptance or careful investigation, and God meets each person where they are.
James Harper reflects on the Apostle Thomas with scripture from John 20:24-29.
James Harper reflects on the Apostle Paul with scripture from Acts 9:10-16.
Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Corinthians 3:1-6 as part our Lent Sermon Series, "Letters of Recommendation." Every personal experience shapes our unique story, and God purposefully uses these experiences for His kingdom. Through examining Paul's letter to the Corinthians, we discover that God uses unlikely people, regardless of their background or perceived inadequacies. Our authentic experiences, including struggles and victories, become powerful tools for reaching others in ways only we can.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Ash Wednesday on 1 Corinthians 15:50-57.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Psalm 42:1-5 as part of our sermon series on praying with the Psalms. In times of spiritual and emotional crisis, we can use the words of this psalm to give voice to our struggle, and our desire to live in hope. David's words remind us that we can and should be honest with God about our feelings. We should look to the past to remember God's faithfulness, and talk to ourselves about what God says about us. We are invited to turn our hope from the temporary solutions of this world, to the eternal hope that we have in Jesus, the one who went before us and made the way clear for us to call out to God and receive his grace in the midst of our struggles.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Psalm 46 as part of our sermion series on praying with the Psalms. Life's challenges can shake our foundations, but there are two perspectives to consider: life in the world and life in God's kingdom. While earthly disruptions like natural disasters, financial crises, and personal setbacks are inevitable, God's kingdom offers unshakeable truths. Three fundamental principles emerge: our difficulties ultimately work for good, our spiritual blessings cannot be taken away, and the best things still await us in eternity. By being still and viewing challenges through the lens of kingdom citizenship, we can find peace amid life's storms.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Psalm 8 as part of our sermon series on praying with the Psalms. Psalm 8 reveals God's authoritative perspective on human value and identity. As the sovereign creator of all things, God declares humans to be crowned with glory and honor, positioned just below angels, and made in His divine image. This truth stands in stark contrast to cultural messages that base human worth on usefulness, behavior, or appearance. The ultimate proof of human value is demonstrated through Jesus Christ's sacrifice, showing the immense worth God places on each person.

Rev. James Harper preaches on Acts 9:10-19 in our For God. For Neighbor. For You. Series! Assumptions about God and others can significantly limit our ability to form meaningful relationships with God and with others. Through the biblical story of Ananias and Saul, we learn how choosing curiosity over assumptions can lead to transformative experiences. By examining our preconceptions about God and others, we can move beyond prejudices based on politics, ethnicity, age, or social issues. This approach allows us to develop deeper connections, participate in God's work, and better fulfill our calling as followers of Christ.
Rev. James Harper preaches on Hebrews 13: 8-16. Here's a summary: God's boundless generosity toward us calls for more than passive reception - it invites us to become generous givers ourselves. This transformative journey involves giving up our personal rights, offering consistent praise, and sharing our time freely with others. By shifting from a receiving-only mindset to one of active giving, we discover deeper purpose and closer connection with God. This lifestyle of generosity allows us to participate meaningfully in God's mission while experiencing the joy that comes from selfless giving.

Rate and review GTP on iTunes: Click Here to Rate and Review. View/Download Trial Documents Case Details: Former defense attorney and U.S. Army Judge Advocate General (JAG) Corps veteran Shane Lazenby of Lazenby Law Group explains how he secured justice in the wrongful death of Kip Holland, a 50-year-old intellectually disabled pedestrian who was hit by a weaving, out-of-control tractor-trailer in Gainesville, Georgia. At trial, Shane Lazenby demonstrated that James Harper, the 76-year-old tractor-trailer driver who died before the case went to trial, lied on his Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration medical exam, took prescription narcotics four times a day, performed breathing treatments for COPD in his trailer and was regularly admitted to the hospital for pneumonia. In 2020, a Gainesville, Georgia jury returned a verdict in favor of Kip Holland's grieving family and awarded $21,029,363 in damages, litigation expenses, and attorney's fees. Guest Bio: Shane Lazenby Shane Lazenby is the founder and managing member of Lazenby Law Group. After more than a decade of defending those accused of negligence in personal injury cases, Shane decided to reverse course and help the victims of serious injuries. With unparalleled compassion and limitless commitment, Shane quickly learned how much more rewarding and uplifting service as a victim's advocate can be. Shane now focuses his practice on helping the victims of catastrophic personal injury and the families whose loved ones have passed as a result of another's negligence. Shane received his law degree in 1999 at the Walter F. George School of Law at Mercer University in Macon, Georgia. While at Mercer, Shane was a member of the Moot Court Board and the Mercer Law Review where he served as the Eleventh Circuit Survey Editor. Shane also received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science, with a minor in Latin, from Mercer in 1994. Following law school, Shane returned to the United States Army, where he served as a Judge Advocate with the 82d Airborne Division. Shane's service included duties as the Regimental Judge Advocate for the 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, where he obtained a 100% conviction rate in the most active military justice jurisdiction in the United States Army. Shane was also selected to be the first Judge Advocate from the 82d Airborne Division to deploy to the Global War on Terrorism as counsel to the Commander of the 3rd Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Shane was then selected to be the Operational Law Attorney for the 82d Airborne Division Commander in Bagram, Afghanistan, where he served until returning home. In December 2010, Shane retired from the Georgia Army National Guard after 21 years of total military service with the Georgia National Guard, United States Army, and Army Reserve. Shane joined the military in 1989, first serving as a combat medical specialist. In 1993 Shane graduated from Officer's Candidate School and was commissioned as an Infantry Officer. Shane served as an Infantry Platoon Leader, Signal Platoon Leader, and Operations Officer with a Ranger-led, Airborne Long Range Surveillance Unit. He then returned to the active Army for his tour of duty as a Judge Advocate before transitioning into the Army Reserve. In the Army Reserve, Shane continued service as a Judge Advocate, but was then selected for Command as the Headquarters and Headquarters Company Commander for the 335th Signal Command. Thereafter, Shane transitioned back into the Georgia Army National Guard where he returned to his Infantry roots and became the Executive Officer of the 3-108th Cavalry Squadron; his retirement assignment. Shane's service awards include the coveted Ranger tab, the Master Parachutist Badge, the Air Assault Badge, and the Bronze Star for service in the Republic of Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. Shane's service as an Army Ranger also included competition in the LTG David E. Grange Best Ranger Competition in 2002. After his return from Afghanistan, Shane transitioned into private practice with a prestigious trial defense firm in Atlanta, Georgia, where he gained invaluable experience and growth alongside some of Georgia's finest defense and plaintiff attorneys. After deciding to depart big city life, Shane settled with his family in Gainesville, Georgia. In Gainesville, Shane continued honing his skills as a partner with a Gainesville firm specializing in the defense of physicians accused of medical malpractice. In his career, Shane has tried more than fifty cases to verdict. His extensive experience was noted when he was selected as an Atlanta Magazine Georgia Super Lawyer Rising Star in 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2012. Shane was also pleased to be selected as a Georgia Super Lawyer for Plaintiff's Personal Injury in 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, a peer-reviewed award limited to only the top 2.5% of Georgia's attorneys. Shane also maintains a coveted AV Rating from Martindale Hubbell – the highest possible rating in terms of both legal ability and ethical standards. Shane was also fortunate to graduate from Leadership Georgia in 2013 and Leadership Hall County in 2016.

In May 1984, former U.S. Marine, engineer, and early Silicon Valley entrepreneur James Harper was sentenced to life in prison for his central role in an audacious scheme to sell a bevy of classified documents relating to U.S. missile defense to the Soviet bloc and its allies. Four decades later, his story was almost forgotten, until it was rediscovered and investigated by national security reporter Zach Dorfman with help from some of the men who helped catch Harper—and the spy himself. Now, with help from our friends at Goat Rodeo, Dorfman has turned this story into a six-part podcast series entitled “Spy Valley,” which takes a close look at Harper's seminal spy case. Lawfare Senior Editor Scott R. Anderson sat down with Dorfman to talk over Harper's story and what it can tell us about the relationship between America's national security and those working at the bleeding edge of technological development.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
