Get A Reality Check

Lee Campbell
Ezekiel 18:1-32

We see in Ezekiel 18 that first we need to be humbled in order to admit our sin against God and to call out to Him for forgiveness

Holy Sex

Lee Campbell
1 Thessalonians 4:1-8

God's design for sex is for developing oneness with your spouse. Our culture instead, views sex as solely for satisfying personal pleasure. This attitude is destructive to others, to your relationship with God and to yourself. Use sex as God intended. It is a picture of God's nature and character.

Results of God Becoming Human

Jim Leffel
Hebrews 2:5-18

Christ's death solved humanity's problem of sin by presenting victory over issues that only God can fix, paying a debt that humans cannot pay, and demonstrating his love and justice to us.

The Justice of God

Scott Risley
2 Thessalonians 1:1-9

The suffering Christians experience from living in a fallen world will be evidence God presents in the last days when He returns to put the whole world on trial for rejecting His offer of forgiveness. God's righteousness demands He punish evil. Although Hell is an uncomfortable topic, it is real and no one goes there that did not make a choice to reject the alternative, Heaven.

Identity and Transparency

Chris Risley
2 Thessalonians 1:1-9

As new creations, our struggles and failures don't need to define us--they are often a way for God's glory to shine through us.

The Psychological Self

James Rochford
2 Thessalonians 1:1-9

Follow Up: Growth, Persecution, and Judgment

Dennis McCallum
2 Thessalonians 1:1-10

God, in all His amazing wisdom, is able to use the suffering and persecution Christians receive, to grow us spiritually. He promises that those who persecute us will come under eternal judgment, if they refuse to obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus.

The Enduring Message of Jeremiah

Jim Leffel
2 Thessalonians 1:1-10

Looking at the book of Jeremiah as a whole, we see the general consequences of living a life apart from God, as well as the insurmountable love that is present in God's offer to restore us.

Excellent Behavior Part 1

Ben Foust
1 Peter 2:11-17

What does the way you live your life communicate to the "watching world?" Do your actions refute negative misconceptions about Christians or do they confirm them? Peter gives concrete examples of how to show the world the truth by what you do. By honoring all people, loving the brotherhood, fearing God and honoring the king, we can show Christ to the world.
