You could say that the phrase ‘be strong' follows ‘act like men' as a definition and prescription. Let's have Alexander MacLaren take us back into the mindset of the battle as he elaborates on this connection between the two phrases: “Play a man's part in the battle; strike with all the force of your muscles. But the Apostle adds, ‘be strong.' You cannot play a man's part unless you are. ‘Be strong'—the original would rather bear ‘become strong.' What is the use of telling men to ‘be strong'? It is a waste of words, in nine cases out of ten, to say to a weak man, ‘Pluck up your courage, and show strength.'   Alexander maclaren MacLaren points out the nuance of our phrase ‘be strong'. You can't be a man without strength, and you can't ‘just have' the kind of strength the Apostle prescribes in this verse. Alexander states that Paul's use of this phrase is quite uncommon in the New Testament, but that another use of the phrase helps us better understand the nuance. He reveals that we are to be: “Strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man" (Ephesians 3:16). Read the transcript for Be Strong Sign up for the Wisdom In All Things newsletter

Seminar / Life in the Spirit: Being Strengthened in the Holy Spirit by Relational Mission

Message from John (Phud) Chambers on September 7, 2025

Called to contemplate the cost of discipleship, we might be helped by translating Paul's request to Philemon into our prayer of the day: Refresh my heart in Christ. Strengthened by the company and forgiveness of Christ in holy communion and recalling God's grace in remembrance of baptism, we can be strengthened in this hour to “choose life”—to choose life in God as our own.Scripture Reading: Psalm 1; Philemon 1-21; Luke 14:25-33

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION“Grace puts its hand on the boasting mouth, and shuts it once for all.”~Charles Spurgeon “Certainly we should be very active in seeking God, and Jesus himself called us to ‘ask, seek, knock' in order to find him. Yet those who enter a relationship with God inevitably look back and recognize that God's grace had sought them out, breaking them open to new realities.”~Tim Keller “A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough today to last him for the next 6 months, nor can he inhale sufficient air into his lungs with one breath to sustain life for a week to come. We are permitted to draw upon God's store of grace from day to day as we need it.”~Dwight L. Moody “Your worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God's grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God's grace.”~Jerry Bridges “When the worst thing you could ever imagine happens, there is something that was not there in your imaginings—and that is the grace of God.”~Elisabeth Elliot SERMON PASSAGE7 Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome of their way of life, and imitate their faith. 8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. 9 Do not be led away by diverse and strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace, not by foods, which have not benefited those devoted to them. 10 We have an altar from which those who serve the tent have no right to eat. 11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy places by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp. 12 So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood. 13 Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured. 14 For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come. 15 Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. 16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God. 17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you. 18 Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things. 19 I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

Strengthened and renewed after my time of prayer this summer, next week I shall be speaking to more than 1500 young people at their annual All-Central Asia Youth Conference, where I have been the main guest speaker for several years. This move of God in Central Asia is so feared by the authorities that the founder and organiser is not allowed to speak or even show his face at his own event – or he will be arrested! But he is my good friend, and we will spend time together! Supporting and facilitating such a significant event takes money and needs much prayer.

When kids swear, it often feels jarring, disrespectful, or even threatening. But swearing isn't about defiance or being a bad kid- it's a clue about the state of your child's nervous system. Swearing might mean your child is overwhelmed, dysregulated, or struggling to find their real voice. Of course, understanding the behavior isn't excusing the behavior. BUT! When we understand where the behavior is coming from, we get much better and more effective ideas about how to address it.In this episode, we explore what's really going on beneath the swearing, why it might be possible to consider that swearing isn't inherently bad, and how parents can respond in ways that build regulation, connection, and felt safety.In this episode, you'll learn:Why your own reaction to swearing is the first thing to explore, and how to regulate through itWhat swearing might really be communicating, including pain, overwhelm, or a need for controlHow to scaffold emotional expression so your child learns to use their real voice instead of cussing Resources mentioned in this podcast:Regulated Does Not Equal Calm {EP 31}Boundaries with Connection Part 1 of 3 {EP 111}Boundaries With Verbal Aggression with Juliane Taylor Shore {EP 115}How I've Strengthened my Psychological Boundaries {EP 117}Match The Energy, NOT the Dysregulation {EP 155}The Club is welcoming new members starting next Tuesday!

August 3rd, 2025 | REIMAGINE | Ephesians 3:14-21What if your prayer life wasn't built around limitations—but on the limitless power of God? In this message from Ephesians 3, Pastor Matt Darby kicks off a two-week journey to reimagine what God can do—not just around us, but within us.This week, we unpack Paul's powerful prayer in Ephesians 3:14–21, a turning point in his letter to the Ephesians. Paul prays for believers to be:Strengthened with supernatural power through the Holy SpiritAnchored in the indwelling presence of ChristRooted in and overwhelmed by the incomprehensible love of JesusFilled with the fullness of GodToo often, we settle for being saved and stop short of living the abundant life. We get spiritually bored and start asking, "Is Jesus really enough?" Pastor Matt calls us to recapture the wonder of what God can do through a Spirit-empowered life.At New Beginnings, we're also stepping into a renewed commitment to prayer. Why? Because prayer is what positions us to engage, experience, and witness the immeasurable power of God. It's not about doing more for Him—it's about opening ourselves to receive more from Him.Let this message be an invitation to reimagine what your life, your home, and our church could look like if we were fully strengthened, indwelt, rooted, and filled with God Himself.“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think...” (Eph. 3:20)Do you know JESUS? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/do-you-know-jesus⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need PRAYER? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbgilmer.org/pray⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Support through GIVING: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nbbctx.org/giving⁠

Guiding Question How do you stand strong and live well when you're spiritually on your own? Summary In this message, Robert Lewis draws a parallel between the emotional farewell of parents dropping their child off at college and the apostle Paul's final words to the Corinthian church in 1 Corinthians 16. These “parting words” from Paul are short but charged imperatives meant to prepare the young, struggling Corinthian believers to live faithfully when left to stand on their own. Lewis opens by summarizing the spiritual condition of the Corinthian church: educated and gifted, yet immature, morally confused, and spiritually wobbly. Then he unpacks Paul's five closing exhortations in verses 13–14—urging believers to be spiritually alert, to stand firm in their faith, to be courageous, to draw strength from Christ, and to do everything in love. Each imperative comes with vivid illustrations and real-world applications. The message concludes with a personal challenge: When you're spiritually alone—at work, at home, or in a crisis—what's actually true of you? And if it's not working, are you ready to become something more? Outline: Introduction: A Parent's Parting Words – Connecting college send-offs to Paul's final exhortations. Snapshot of the Corinthian Church – Gifted but immature, well-taught but not spiritually grounded. Paul's Parting Words (1 Corinthians 16:13–14): Be spiritually alert – Stay awake to the spiritual realities and threats around you. Stand firm in the faith – Hold fast to historic Christian truth amid cultural drift. Be courageous – Take bold leaps of faith and live for eternal rewards. Be strong (in the Lord) – Draw inner strength from the living presence of Christ. Do everything in love – Let love temper your convictions and your courage. Application Challenge – What is true of you when you're spiritually alone? Key Takeaways Living the Christian life means learning to stand alone with strength, courage, and clarity. Faith requires spiritual alertness in a world filled with subtle and overt threats to your soul. You must decide if you truly believe “the faith” (historic Christian teaching)—because you can't stand firm in what you're not sure of. The Christian journey involves leaping into faith experiences that feel risky but reveal God's power. Inner strength comes not from self, but from Christ alive in you. Love must guide all your spiritual practices; without it, truth becomes harsh and courage becomes pride. Scriptural References 1 Corinthians 16:13–14 – Paul's five imperatives: “Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong, let all you do be done in love.” 1 Corinthians 3:1–3 – The Corinthians were spiritual infants. Hebrews 5:14 – Mature believers have trained their senses to discern good and evil. 2 Thessalonians 2:15 – “Stand firm...and hold to the teachings.” Ephesians 3:16 – Strengthened with power through the Spirit in the inner man. Colossians 1:27 – “Christ in you, the hope of glory.” John 14:23 – Jesus promises to make His home with those who love and obey Him.   Recorded 8/8/04  

Through 1 Corinthians 15, Sam reminds us that Jesus didn't just die and rise again for a one-time rescue, but offers daily grace to stand, grow, and keep going even when life feels overwhelming. It's not about trying harder—it's about calling out, receiving His love, and letting that grace reshape everything. Stand in saving graceObserve risen grace  Strengthened by sustaining grace Life Group Discussion:Which of the “I could be drowning if…” statements hit closest to home for you, and why?How does knowing Jesus rose from the dead change how you face hard things like doubt, fear, or failure?What's one area of your life where you need to stop striving and start receiving God's grace again?

Habakkuk 1:1-17 The oracle that Habakkuk the prophet saw. 2 O Lord, how long shall I cry for help, and you will not hear? Or cry to you “Violence!” and you will not save? 3 Why do you make me see iniquity, and why do you idly look at wrong? Destruction and violence are before me; strife and contention arise. 4 So the law is paralyzed, and justice never goes forth. For the wicked surround the righteous; so justice goes forth perverted. 5 “Look among the nations, and see; wonder and be astounded. For I am doing a work in your days that you would not believe if told. 6 For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, who march through the breadth of the earth, to seize dwellings not their own. 7 They are dreaded and fearsome; their justice and dignity go forth from themselves. 8 Their horses are swifter than leopards, more fierce than the evening wolves; their horsemen press proudly on. Their horsemen come from afar; they fly like an eagle swift to devour. 9 They all come for violence, all their faces forward. They gather captives like sand. 10 At kings they scoff, and at rulers they laugh. 12They laugh at every fortress, for they pile up earth and take it. 11 Then they sweep by like the wind and go on, guilty men, whose own might is their god!” 12 Are you not from everlasting, O Lord my God, my Holy One? We shall not die. O Lord, you have ordained them as a judgment, and you, O Rock, have established them for reproof. 13 You who are of purer eyes than to see evil and cannot look at wrong, why do you idly look at traitors and remain silent when the wicked swallows up the man more righteous than he? 14 You make mankind like the fish of the sea, like crawling things that have no ruler. 15 He brings all of them up with a hook; he drags them out with his net; he gathers them in his dragnet; so he rejoices and is glad. 16 Therefore he sacrifices to his net and makes offerings to his dragnet; for by them he lives in luxury, and his food is rich. 17 Is he then to keep on emptying his net and mercilessly killing nations forever?
