Scripture: Proverbs 11:3; Daniel 1:3–5, 8–10, 13–14, 19, 21; 6:3–5 Daniel made up his mind. Have you made up yours? If we'd made up our minds ahead of time, we would have missed out on some things. But I doubt many of us wish we could go back and live a life of less integrity because somehow we thought we would have gained more than actually mattered. In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the timeless question: "Who do you want to be when you grow up?" This isn't just a question for kids; it's relevant for everyone at any stage of life. Join us as we discuss the importance of integrity and how our choices shape not only our lives but also the lives of those around us. We dive into the story of Daniel, a young man who faced immense pressure and temptation but chose to uphold his integrity, even when it cost him. Discover how Daniel's pre-decisions and commitment to doing what is right can inspire us to live with purpose and authenticity. Throughout the episode, we reflect on the impact of our decisions, the significance of role models, and the power of integrity in guiding our lives. Whether you're navigating personal challenges or seeking to inspire others, this episode offers valuable insights on living a life of integrity and making choices that align with your values. Tune in to learn how to pre-decide your path, embrace your integrity, and open the door to transformative "now God" moments in your life. Don't miss this opportunity to reflect on who you want to be and how you can get there!

Before challenges come, God has a way of preparing His people—if we know how to listen. In this first episode of our 31-Day Proverbs Series, Evangelist Caleb Wampler and special guest Marcel Neto dive into Proverbs 1, unpacking the wisdom and divine strategies God offers to guide, protect, and prepare us before the storms of life arrive.

In this message, we will see what is at the root of so many sins and struggles in life. Proverbs points to a hidden disease of the heart that leads to destruction. We will also see how Christ's humility is the cure to our disease, leading us to life.   Scripture: Proverbs 3:34, 11:2, 15:33, 16:18, 18:12, 21:4, 25:27, 29:23

DOWNLOAD KEYNOTE SLIDES Summary of Message by Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. “Developing Mountain Moving Faith” Part Three from the series, “Lord, Teach Us to Pray” Scripture Foundation: Matthew 17:14–21 The message centers on the account of a father who brings his tormented son to Jesus after the disciples failed to heal him. Jesus rebukes the demon, heals the boy, and rebukes His disciples for their unbelief—despite their intentions and prior efforts. He then teaches that “this kind” (of challenge and deliverance) only comes through prayer and fasting. Main Theme: Faith Must Be Developed to Move Mountains Dr. Hudson emphasizes that faith is not automatic or instant; it must be cultivated, prepared, and developed over time, just like any skilled profession. This sermon explores how true faith—faith that produces results and moves mountains—develops through process, prayer, fasting, discipline, and refining trials. Key Points and Lessons 1. Faith Needs Development Faith is not a switch to flip but a process to grow. The disciples believed they could help the boy but lacked the spiritual development to meet the challenge. Just as craftsmen hone their skills over time, believers must grow in faith through experience and learning. “You don't start moving mountains. You start moving molehills.” 2. Understanding Unbelief Unbelief is not the absence of belief, but the lack of preparedness to meet a spiritual demand. Like a trained athlete who stops training and fails despite past success, the disciples failed because they were not ready. Unbelief = underdeveloped or unfocused faith. 3. Faith as a Mustard Seed Jesus didn't say “faith the size of” a mustard seed, but “faith as a mustard seed”—meaning faith that grows. Mustard seed faith starts small but is planted, nurtured, and grows into something powerful. Growth can happen quickly when we are willing to lean into God and walk away from distractions. 4. Two Types of Faith Faith (noun): Beliefs, doctrine, lifestyle (Jude 3). Faith (verb): Belief in action—obedient steps based on God's Word (Matthew 17:20). “You cannot have active faith without sound doctrine. Faith comes by hearing the Word.” 5. The Power of Prayer and Fasting Prayer and fasting are not about moving God—they move you. They shift your attention away from self-centered routines and help you focus on God. Fasting is not merely about abstaining from food; it's about setting aside personal pleasure and self-satisfaction to align with God's will. “You can't focus on yourself and focus on God at the same time.” 6. Hindrance to Faith: Offense and Bitterness Harboring offense or bitterness blocks faith development. Many offenses are not even sins—just preferences or misunderstandings. Scripture (Proverbs 19:11, Matthew 18:15) instructs believers to let go of offense or address it directly if it's a true sin. “Don't let anyone live rent-free in your mind and hinder your faith.” 7. Faith Must Have Corresponding Action (James 2:14–20) Faith without works is dead. Words alone are not enough. True faith produces change—in your heart, life, and lifestyle. Faith is not a transaction, but a lifestyle aligned with the will of God. “Faith is a habit—a consistent way of living and trusting God.” 8. Faith Will Be Tested by Fire (1 Peter 1:6–7) Trials are part of faith development. God uses refining fire to purify and strengthen our faith. Gold becomes more valuable after it is tested by fire—and so does genuine faith. “You won't burn up. You'll come out better, stronger, purer.” Key Quotes and Reflections “Faith is developed, not downloaded.” “Prayer and fasting don't move God—they move you.” “Unbelief is not disbelief; it's unpreparedness.” “Mountain-moving faith grows through molehill-moving obedience.” “Let go of offense—it's not worth stunting your faith.” Final Prayer and Exhortation Dr. Hudson concludes by thanking God for the process of developing faith. He encourages believers to embrace: The disciplines of prayer and fasting The necessity of letting go of offense The value of genuine, tested faith “Lord, thank You that our faith grows like a mustard seed—from a small beginning to something great and fruitful.” Summary Statement Developing mountain-moving faith is a journey of spiritual growth, intentional focus, disciplined habits, and grace under fire. Faith doesn't just appear; it is formed in the presence of God, shaped by the Word, tested by trials, and manifested through love, obedience, and action.

We live in a culture of choice. In our individualistic culture, our place and our parents and our social location don't determine everything that we can do. We have some choices. Choices! What does that mean?  That means we've never needed wisdom more than we do now, because wisdom is the ability to make wise choices. Proverbs 4 shows us that if we want to lead a life of wisdom, our lives will be characterized by three things: 1) a glorious fight, 2) a guarded heart, and 3) a living word. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 22, 2013. Series: Wisdom in Life. Scripture: Proverbs 4:5-9, 14-27.

We live in a culture in which there are more choices than there ever have been. But you can be incredibly good, moral, and knowledgeable and still make pretty stupid choices.  Wisdom is knowing the right thing to do in the 80 percent of choices that the moral rules don't directly apply to. What you need in order to make good choices is wisdom.  In Proverbs 3 we learn 1) where wisdom develops, 2) the vehicles through which wisdom develops, and 3) the catalyst that sparks and fuels them all. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on September 15, 2013. Series: Wisdom in Life. Scripture: Proverbs 3:1-8, 11-12.

In this message we will learn about God's design for intentional parenting and discipleship of the next generation.   Scripture: Proverbs 22:6

There are choices everywhere, just zillions and zillions of choices. And if you don't make good choices, it can be very destructive. Bad choices blow up on you. Every choice is like a fork in the road, and once you make it, you really can't go back to where you were.  What does it take to make good choices? It takes wisdom. And the book of Proverbs is perhaps the most famous text in the world on wisdom. If we look at Proverbs 1, we can see the basics: 1) what wisdom is, 2) why it's important, 3) why it's a problem, and 4) where you can find it.

Proverbs says you're not going to be a wise person unless you're great at choosing, forging, and keeping terrific friendships. For the vast majority of your decisions, there will be many options that are all moral. Wisdom is being so in touch with reality that you know the right thing to do in the situations moral rules don't address. And Proverbs says you will not lead a wise life unless you are really good at friendships. If we look at various verses in Proverbs, we can learn 1) the uniqueness of friendship, 2) how to discover a friend, 3) how to forge or build a friendship, and 4) where we get the power for friendship. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 29, 2005. Series: Proverbs: True Wisdom for Living. Scripture: Proverbs 17:17; 18:24; 25:17, 20; 26:18, 19; 27:5, 6, 9, 14, 17; 28:23; 29:5.
