Introduction: Salutation and Greeting (1:1-2)• Paul the Apostle - passing on faithful ministry • God our Savior - not Artemis or Caesar• Timothy - the next generation of ministryProblem: The False Teachers' Perversion of the Law (1:3-7)False teachers are full of confidence, arrogance, and error.• False teachers focus on fantasies rather than faith (1:3-5).• False teachers use the Scripture but do not use it correctly (1:6-7).Solution: The Proper Use of the Law (1:8-11)The function of the law is to convict sinners, not guide saints.• The proper use of the law is not to guide believers (1:8-9a).• The proper use of the law is to convict sinners of sin (1:9b-10). • The proper use of the law is compatible with the gospel (1:11).Priority: The Centrality of Grace for the Ministry of Paul (1:12-17)The grace of God manifest in Christ Jesus is the epicenter of the gospel. • The grace of God allows us to serve Him with gratitude (1:12).• The abundant grace of God flows to sinful people (1:13-14).• The gospel truth is that Christ Jesus came to save sinners (1:15-16). • The grace of the gospel leads to the praise of God (1:17).God has designed the church to be a stronghold of truth and champion of the grace of God in the gospel. Here is wisdom for the local church in every generation and in every place. Let no one say that scripture is out of date. Calvin, when dedicating his commentary to the Duke of Somerset in 1556 called this letter"highly relevant to our times". All these years later, we can make the same claim. Truly, “the Bible speaks today”. John R. W. Stott, Theologian & PastorHome Church QuestionsRead 1 Timothy 1:1-17.In Ephesus the dominant culture of the day supported the idea that yourloyalty should be to either Artemis (False Religion promising flourishing) or Caesar (False Authority promising security). Where does our culture suggest our loyalty should be placed?What is the content of false teaching in this passage?When have you encountered false teaching in the church?What are the consequences of false teaching in this passage?What criteria do you use when you hear people teaching the Bible?Why is “grace” so important for the gospel?Why is “grace” so important for sanctification? • How should we use the law today?Mission Prayer Focus: The Java Banyumasan of IndonesiaOf the approximately 9.35 million the majority identify as Muslim. Only about 20% actively practice their faith, and many blend it with animistic beliefs, including spirit worship and seeking help from shamans. While they have access to the vital ministry resources, only 2.5% are Christian adherents, and just 1.18% are evangelicals. Pray for the Java Banyumasan to recognize the truth.

Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Bon Gula ChadThe Bon Gula people of Chad number approximately 3,800. Though they are nominally Sunni Muslim, most fiercely adhere to their traditional Marghai religion including sacred sites and revered animals. Only 0.42% are Christian adherents, and they have no Christian resources available in their language. With no access to the message of the gospel, the Bon Gula remain deeply unreached.

The annual April fools' ruse that is the Baltimore Ravens' pre-draft luncheon – aka "The Liars' Luncheon" – provided a few insights into Mark Andrews and no surprises on the roster needs. But, once again, the Justin Tucker scandal they'd love to make "go away" is still kicking on draft weekend. Luke Jones and Nestor go through the lies and truths of the gathering of selected media for a league-mandated buffet of comedy and eras. And delicious ravioli. The post Luke Jones and Nestor go through the lies and truths of Baltimore Ravens pre-NFL Draft Liars Luncheon first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

It was nearly three decades ago when Nestor dubbed the Baltimore Ravens' Pre-Draft Press Conference "The Liars' Luncheon." So, it's fitting that Luke Jones joins him here for straights truths about the Eric DeCosta "process" that began with Ozzie Newsome and will deftly navigate next weekend's NFL Draft with owner Steve Bisciotti asking hard questions of his football people. The Ravens do this better than anyone. The post Luke Jones and Nestor get ready for NFL Draft and assess Ravens needs by position first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

Ed, Rob, and Jeremy took some time from Wednesday's BBMS to discuss the Ravens' so-called "Liar's Luncheon" before the Draft. Do we really learn anything from these pre-draft pressers or are they more of a formality?

Yvette's stay at the Pont Royal Hotel, a former “writer's residence” turned hotel and later expanded to its impressive destination status, was enhanced by her opportunity to interview the general manager, Frederic Legallois.    The hotel is located on the Left Bank of the Seine River, where artists and intellectuals of the early and mid-20th century held court on café terraces in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. This neighborhood is a postcard-perfect vision of Paris: a grand, boutique-filled boulevard; café terraces practically made for people-watching; former residences turned into hotels; antique shops and bookstores spilling out on cobblestoned squares.    Yvette enjoyed the hotel staff's attentiveness to quality service, the art on display and the jazz performance in the hotel's well-appointed bar and lounge. The hotel's proximity to museums and gardens allowed Yvette to enjoy the beautifully manicured Jardin du Luxembourg, which dates back 400 years, and the Musee d'Orsay.   The Musee d'Orsay, which was originally established with loans from the Louvre, now claims the largest collection of impressionist and post-impressionist art in the world. Taking over a former Beaux-Arts railway station along the Seine River, this Museum holds masterpieces, which Yvette had an opportunity to enjoy, like Vincent van Gogh's “The Starry Night” and Edouard Manet's “The Luncheon on the Grass” and a very special find for Yvette, the American artist's James McNeill Whistler's “Whistler Mother.”

Away From the Presence Jonah 1:1-16 Message Slides For the bulletin in PDF form, click here. God is Present EverywhereWe Forget to Live Like God is Present EverywhereGod is Gracious and Merciful, Slow to Anger, and Abounding in Steadfast LoveDiscussion Questions1. The main lesson we learn is that God is present everywhere. Yet there are some places we would probably prefer not to go (even if God is with us). Where would you least/most want to be if you were alone: in the ocean, on a mountain, or in space? Any other places?2. Jonah tries to flee from the presence of the Lord (1:2-3), but he is unable because God is present everywhere. What are some indications in the book that reveal God is present everywhere?3. Do you have any challenges with thinking about God being present everywhere? Is this a difficult or a relatively simple concept for you? Explain.4. Have someone read Psalm 139:7-10. This passage talks about God being present everywhere and how this should encourage us. Why should we be encouraged by the idea that God is present everywhere? Have you ever been especially encouraged by this truth?5. The idea that God is present everywhere can also be humbling. Explain why. Have you ever been convicted by the thought that God is present everywhere and knows everything we do and everything we think?6. Explain how Jonah can have correct thinking in 1:9 that God is present everywhere and yet he tries to flee from God's presence. How can his thinking and living be inconsistent? What are some ways your thinking and living can be inconsistent?7. The story is ultimately about God's grace shown to Nineveh but also shown to Jonah. What are some ways we see God's grace toward Jonah in this story? What are some lessons we might apply to our lives from this?8. Jesus thinks of the story of Jonah as pointing to Him when he says, “something greater than Jonah is here” (Matt 12:41). What are some examples of how Jesus succeeds where Jonah fails? How is Jesus greater than Jonah? Why should this encourage us today?Mission Highlight - Pray for the Unreached: The Montgomery Family On Friday, March 28th, Southeast Asia experienced an earthquake of 7.7 magnitude. The Montgomery family is safe and experienced no damage, though they did feel it. Justin, Angela, Zeke, and Taos ask that we join them in praying for those effected by the earthquake.

A question we have often asked in the middle of life's difficult situations.......Where was God??  Take a listen to what Donnie has to say on this, enjoy and share with a co-worker!

In this special episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow shares his full remarks from the annual ITR Foundation and NFIB Tax Day Luncheon, delivered before a crowd of engaged Iowans, legislators, and policy leaders in downtown Des Moines. Blending humor, storytelling, and serious policy analysis, Chris sets the stage for the future of Iowa's tax reform movement.The remarks begin with a nod to Iowa's remarkable progress on income tax reform—from a top rate of 8.98% to today's 3.8% flat tax—positioning the state as a national leader in conservative tax policy. Chris pays tribute to Senator Jack Whitver for his pivotal role in making generational tax relief a reality and sets the tone for the next big challenge: property tax reform.He unpacks the latest ITR Foundation poll, showing overwhelming support across party lines for major taxpayer protections:Chris highlights how this public sentiment aligns with the goals of the property tax reform bill led by Senator Dan Dawson and Representative Bobby Kaufmann—a bill that includes spending caps, school funding shifts, and a new homestead exemption. He challenges local governments to stop prioritizing bureaucracy over taxpayers and urges legislators to listen to the voices of everyday Iowans.Closing with a call to action, Chris invites listeners to use ITRLocal.org to track city, county, and school district spending and get engaged at the local level. This episode is a must-listen for those following Iowa's conservative reform movement and looking for insight into what comes next.

What can we do as individuals and as a church to build bridges across divisive lines in the body of Christ?Paul starts his letter with grace (1:2) and ends the letter with grace (4:23). As you have learned and experienced God's grace in your life, how has that shaped your view of God? of the Christian life?As we wrap up our study of Philippians, pray together that every person at FBC, young, old, and in between, would find their role so that we together would bring glory to God.Pray for the Unreached: The Tuareg, Tamasheq of MauritaniaThese people of Mauritania number approximately 136,000. Though they primarily speak Tamasheq and identify as Sunni Muslims, their faith is often mixed with folk beliefs and magic. Only 0.04% are Christian adherents, and 0.00% are evangelicals. Despite having access to the New Testament, Jesus Film, and audio recordings, the Tamasheq Tuareg remain largely unreached with the gospel. Pray for laborers to focus on the Tamasheq Taureg. Pray for influential leaders to be reached with the gospel and boldly share with others, resulting in disciple making movements among these peoples.FinancesWeekly Budget 35,297Giving For 03/16 25,450Giving For 03/23 30,039YTD Budget 1,341,292Giving 1,328,634 OVER/(UNDER) (12,658)Fellowship 101We invite you to join us on Sunday, April 6, at 9:00 a.m. to learn more about Fellowship.

With 0% identifying as Christians or evangelicals, they remain unreached by the gospel. Though Bible translation has been started, the Aheu Luang peoples do not have access to the Bible.

I remember that when I joined Fox 4 in the early '90s, I was assigned to cover the Mad Hatter's Tea & Luncheon, and I said, "Man, these Texans are living up to their reputation. Everything is bigger in Texas. Everything is flashy and more glamorous in Texas!" That's why I invited my next guests on the show. They are the leaders of the Mad Hatter's Tea & Luncheon this year. Shane Walker is a hat designer, and he's really critical to the success of the show. Therese Rourk is the president of the Women's Council of the Dallas Arboretum, and Sarah Friedman is the chair of this year's event.

Still in Bed"We read of spiritual efforts, and our imagination makes us believe that, because we enjoy the ideaof doing them, we have done them. I am appalled to see how much of the change which I thought I had undergone lately was only imaginary.The real work seems still to be done. It is so fatally easy to confuse an aesthetic appreciation of the spiritual life with the life itself—to dream that you have waked, washed, and dressed, & then to find yourself still in bed."C.S. LewisHome Church QuestionsRead Philippians 4:2-9. Is there an immediate insight or application you would like to share from the passage or the message?Euodia and Syntyche had to work at their relationship for the sake of unity “in the Lord” (verse 2). What issues tend to divide brothers and sisters in Christ to the detriment of unity?Paul directed these ladies to agree (be of one mind) “in the Lord.” How is this achieved when you have differences with another believer?Life is not always enjoyable. Read verses 4-7 again. What key truths in these verses allow you to rejoice in the Lord “always,” even in circumstances that are not enjoyable?Read Romans 5:1-5. On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your ability to rejoice in life's irritations and difficulties? What truth from the question above will help you do this?How does verse 6 tell you how to deal with anxiety? How good are you at releasing your anxiety in this way?Verse 7 refers to the peace of God and verse 9 refers to the God of peace. To what degree are you experiencing the peace of God right now? If your heart is not at peace, what truth or promise from Scripture do you need to grasp?As you close your time, pray together that each of you will know the peace of God that passes understanding and display true peace to an anxious and troubled world.Pray for the Unreached: The Burmese in Myanmar (Burma)The Burmese people of Myanmar, numbering over 31 million, are predominantly Buddhist, with only 0.35% identifying as Christians and 0.08% as evangelicals. Their culture blends Buddhism with animistic beliefs, often centered around appeasing spirits called nats. Despite civil wars, ethnic divisions, and ongoing political unrest, the Burmese maintain rich traditions.

Following the Path Philippians 3:17 - 4:1 Message SlidesFor the bulletin in PDF form, click here. The Two Paths •. “the example you have in us” (3:17) •. “enemies of the cross” (3:18) The Nature of the Two Paths “minds set on earthly things” (3:19) “our citizenship is in heaven” (3:20) The End of the Two Paths “their end is destruction” (3:19) “[He] will transform our lowly body” (3:21)Home Church QuestionsDo you have a favorite hike or trail? Our passage is about two different paths. Have someone read Phil 3:17-4:1.What are some ways we should imitate Paul and follow the example he mentions in Phil 3:17? He uses this image of “walking” to describe Christian living (3:17). What are some ways the Christian faith is like walking? Are there any ways you need to start “walking” more faithfully?We learn that many walk as enemies of the cross, and this leads Paul to tears (3:18). How should we respond to those who are on this path?Who are some good examples you have seen that you can follow? Who are some bad examples that many people follow? Explain why.How would you paraphrase or summarize Phil 3:19? What is the nature of the path we should avoid?What does it look like for us to live as citizens of heaven who are waiting (3:20)? What is the nature of the path we are called to follow?What are some specific ways you can follow the path of the cross this week even if it might be a difficult path (at home, at school, at work, in your neighborhood, etc)?Phil 3:21 reminds us that taking the right path today is worth it in the end. How would you explain to someone that following Christ's path is worth it even if it is challenging at times?Pray for the Unreached: The Kyrgyz in Kyrgyzstan - The Kyrgyz are primarily nomadic cattle raisers living on high plateau. Of the nearly 5 million Kyrgyz living in Kyrgyzstan, 99.82% identify as Muslims. Only .09% of the Kyrgyz identify as Christian. The Kyrgyz face many challenges like poverty, water scarcity, and spiritual strongholds. Pray for provision of clean water and the living water of Jesus.

The lawsuit challenges Musk's role as head of the new Department of Government Efficiency. In tonight's Crockett Chronicles, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett reminds her MAGA colleagues, "The truth will set you free!" Missouri's MAGA Attorney General is suing Starbucks, claiming that its workforce is "more female and less white." The White man who shot an unarmed black teen who went to the wrong Kansas City house has admitted guilt in the case.
