This morning we study someone in the Bible whose life perspective was changed, through a hard-learned lesson from God Himself. What changed Babylon’s king from pride to thankfulness, and what can we learn from it?

We are continuing our journey through the Patriarchal Age of the Bible. This morning, we look at Jacob, who begins as an unlikely person to be carrying on the promises of God. But God kept working on him, and as the fearful night of Genesis 32 shows us, faith is finally starting to be different in Jacob…
Different places in life bring different spiritual opportunities and challenges. While we all want our life to be filled with “the good times,” sadly, that’s often when our faith falters. What does God want us to know about living faithfully when things are good?
Tonight we complete our “Adventures in Bible Reading” studies with a series of events in the life of Jeremiah. It involves King Jehoiakim, the son of King Josiah, and it’s interesting (and sad) to notice how different the father and son were in their attitudes toward God’s word. What can we learn from it?
Tonight we study a sometimes-misunderstood characteristic of Jesus, one that Paul says we must have in the church. How do we see it properly in Jesus, and why is it so important?
On Sunday nights, we are studying Jesus’ Kingdom Parables in Matthew’s gospel. Tonight we come to a story Jesus told in Matthew chapter 20 that may seem confusing at first. We will do our best to put it in context, and see what God wants us to learn from it about Christ’s kingdom…
Jesus has now been teaching His apostles that He will die and be raised again. As He enters Jerusalem for the final week before He dies, He enters in a way that probably surprised the religious leaders, and may surprise us as well. What can we learn from Jesus’ “grand entrance” into Jerusalem?
Turning “Me” upside down gives a whole new perspective on life, and it’s a perspective God wants Christians to adopt…
Is it possible to have God’s blessings but not have God’s “blessing?” Jesus begins the Sermon on the Mount by describing the character of His kingdom, and what types of people have God’s favor. Do I fit His description?
It’s difficult to serve others, and sometimes even more difficult to be served by others. John 13 shows us the truths of how to love people in difficult times. It also shows us that we must be comfortable being served by Jesus.
