What are we saved FOR?

What are we saved FOR?

When we say "Christ died to save sinners," what do we mean?


What are we saved for?

What are we saved from?

How does his death save us?


This message is mostly about God's love.

Mar 24, 202433:52
Whose, Who, and Why We Are

Whose, Who, and Why We Are

When we know whose we are, then we know who we are, and why we are. Then we finally have a stable place to stand.


Who am I? I am God's dearly beloved son, who brings him great pleasure.

The Sifting

The Sifting

This chat is about God accessing more of our true heart through the storms. It's really a chat about intimacy with God.

Christian Prayer (Psalm 130)

Christian Prayer (Psalm 130)

From the depths of despair, O Lord,
    I call for your help.
Hear my cry, O Lord.
    Pay attention to my prayer.

Lord, if you kept a record of our sins,
    who, O Lord, could ever survive?
But you offer forgiveness,
    that we might learn to fear you.

I am counting on the Lord;
    yes, I am counting on him.
    I have put my hope in his word.
I long for the Lord
    more than sentries long for the dawn,
    yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.

O Israel, hope in the Lord;
    for with the Lord there is unfailing love.
    His redemption overflows.
He himself will redeem Israel
    from every kind of sin.

The Shelter of the Most High

The Shelter of the Most High

Psalm 91 

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High

    will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

This I declare about the Lord:

He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;

    he is my God, and I trust him.

For he will rescue you from every trap

    and protect you from deadly disease.

He will cover you with his feathers.

    He will shelter you with his wings.

    His faithful promises are your armor and protection.

The Fire and The Sacrifice

The Fire and The Sacrifice

God, according to Deuteronomy 4:24, is "a devouring fire," yet he invites us to draw near.


Let's explore this theme!

Feb 15, 202456:23
Food on the Frontlines

Food on the Frontlines

When we don't press in to know the Lord, we starve inside. We need to get in touch with our hunger and thirst for God...


"I have food to eat that you don't know about...My food is to do the will of Him who sent me." (John 4:32, 34)

Feb 13, 202448:27
Building On The Foundation - Stan and Tim

Building On The Foundation - Stan and Tim

The theme is growth and building our lives on Jesus so that when the storms of life come, we are rooted and grounded in Christ.

Empty Wells

Empty Wells

This chat was really about surrender and relationship with Jesus.

  • Jeremiah 2:13 “My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water."
  • Colossians 2:3 "Christ, in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge."
  • Acts 4:13 "When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus."

To Be A Voice and Not An Echo

To Be A Voice and Not An Echo

This Wednesday Whiteboard is about a voice crying in the wilderness: John the Baptist. But it's also about us. It's about how we are likewise called to come away and find ourselves in God.


"And now, by God's grace, I shall become myself." (Kierkegaard)

God Is In The Details

God Is In The Details

Vague and generic isn't very powerful. But when we start to get specific and deal with the nitty gritty, that's when we make headway. Why? Because God is in the details!

Good Plans

Good Plans

This very story-driven autobiographical chat is about the reality of God being better than I dared hope. It's based on Psalm 37:4 which invites us to delight in the Lord and he will give us our heart's desires.

Grace

Grace

I don't think we'll fall in love with God unless we relate to Him through the lens of grace.

Rare and Random or Available Now? (Healing, part 4)

Rare and Random or Available Now? (Healing, part 4)

Are supernatural encounters with God few, far between, and inexplicable? Or is God more available, and do we play a part in the equation?

Nov 12, 202350:29
Metron

Metron

This talk is about a concept Paul expresses repeatedly in 2 Corinthians chapter 10, namely, that of a metron.


Did you know you have a metron? Do you know what it is? Are you being faithful in it? How would you discover it? Does it change throughout your life?

Nov 09, 202301:01:44
Who sinned? (healing, part 3)

Who sinned? (healing, part 3)

In this one, we open up some thorny questions about various causes of illness found in the Bible...


We want to avoid all-or-nothing thinking such as thinking ALL sickness, "must be God teaching me a lesson," or "the devil messing with me." While both of those CAN occur, there are many causes of illness in a fallen world.


My main takeaway is that Jesus viewed brokenness in the world not as an opportunity to assign blame, but as an opportunity to bring the Father's goodness to bear.


Main Scriptures: 1 Sam 5:6, Rev 2:20-23, John 9:1-7, Acts 10:38

It ain't.

    Psalm 103 + Ministry Time

    Psalm 103 + Ministry Time

    This was last night's "Wednesday Whiteboard" time.


    I included the prayers so that people might go back and listen again if that's helpful, but I removed anything I felt was not for public consumption.

    Oct 12, 202353:08

    Calvin and Me on Malachi 3

    Since Bob Muncy talked about this verse the other night, I've been thinking about it more. I had a question about interpreting a verse written 2,500 years ago and got a little help from a pastor who wrote about five hundred years ago.
