What Hope Looks Like (pt 3)

Wednesday Nov 24, 2021

We may have some Biblical information but maybe it’s time for some real transformation! As we approach Thanksgiving tomorrow, some of us are looking for ways to show love to friends and family this holiday season. How can we implement showing love? Well, Hebrews 13:2-8 gives us a great guideline on how to show the love of Jesus. It’s not about more information, it’s about transformation! It’s time to take our faith to another level!

What Love Looks Like (pt 1)

Monday Nov 22, 2021

The holidays are a time where most of us get to spend some time with family or friends that we don’t get to see as often as we would like. For some of us, the holidays can have some tough moments. It’s hard to let your cup overflow when your own cup is empty. Hebrews 13:2 “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.” Join Greg today as he offers some hope to help fill your own cup through the holidays.

Even in the Suffering (pt 2)

Tuesday Nov 16, 2021

Let’s look at 1 Peter 2:21-25 again today and study how Jesus did good, even when he was going through unimaginable suffering. What are you dealing with right now? Marriage issues, addiction, personal conflict, work struggles? If you’re not going through something, you’ve just finished going through something or you’re getting ready to go through something. Suffering is common. Jesus sets an example on how to get through suffering and still do good.

Even in Suffering (pt 1)

Monday Nov 15, 2021

This world is not my home. God is with you in the suffering. He doesn’t cause it. He doesn’t like it. But he’s with us through it. God calls us to do good, even if it’s through suffering. That’s hard, isn’t it? But Jesus went through more suffering than we could imagine, and we can follow his lead. Greg takes a peek at 1 Peter 2:21-25 to study how Jesus did it.

Who Is Your Shepherd? (pt 2)

Tuesday Nov 09, 2021

How are you doing at “walking beside the peaceful streams” in your life? Not so great? Are you having trouble even finding any peace? Psalm 23 promises that Jesus would lead us beside the still waters… He gives us supernatural strength that only He can provide. We have to ask for His help and allow Him to be our shepherd. He loves to help us and we are never alone.

David, (the shepherd) who wrote the book of Psalms, surely made some of these decisions. Yet he was a man after God’s own heart! Aren’t you glad we have a shepherd leading us who never forsakes us?
