Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to slow down and reflect on God’s provision. Sounds good, right? Yet, if we were honest, how often do we believe that what we have or have accomplished, is because of OUR hard work? Do we truly give God the credit He deserves? Dr. Don Denyes takes us back in Scripture to 1 Chronicles to help us have a right view of true gratitude.
Do you sometimes find it hard to say you are sorry or admit when you are wrong? Humility is hard. Dr. Don Denyes opens the book of Philippians and encourages us as we strive to become more like Jesus.
Are you sad, frustrated, or overwhelmed with something in your life right now? Have you prayed about it? As Stu Quackenbush continues our Storytellers series in Luke, he invites us to bring our needs to God in prayer. Even if God chooses not to answer the way we hope, we will still be secure in our loving Father’s arms.
Who has hurt you? Who do you distrust? Are you at war with anyone in your heart? That person is your neighbor. As Stu Quackenbush explores the parable of the Good Samaritan, we’ll see one of the most radical calls on our lives as Christinas–we are to love even our enemies. Jesus loved first and we are to “do likewise.”
The pressures of life! As soon as you read that, what came to mind? Maybe you have one big thing that consumes you or maybe a long list of them that keeps you from engaging more fully in our mission to always make disciples. Ben Phebus continues our series in Luke and invites us to follow Jesus’ example to step away to pray and commune with God, so we can be refreshed and ready.
