    Get Over Yourself: No Will Power, Part 1
    Aug 2 2025
    It’s not hard to draw to mind situations where new power creates new vulnerabilities for those that are given it. But is the problem always “out there?” I’ve never been crowned king. Do I need to worry about corrupting power? And if so, how do I survive it? We’ll look at these questions in this study. Judges 9:1-57 Learn more about your ad choices.

    A Different Gospel, Part 1
    Aug 1 2025
    You’re offered one of two boxes, with the contents of each clearly identified. What’s not identified is the value of the contents. If you select the box with a very small value, perhaps you don’t understand the riches in the other box. In our study, Paul is working to help us understand the value of what’s freely offered to us.

    “How ya doing?” We say it, but it’s likely that we’re not asking a question. We’re simply using that phrase as a way to interact. In our study today, we’re dissecting a greeting used by Paul to make sure we get the real gold that’s within. Galatians 1:3-5 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    The Godness of the Gospel, Part 2
    Jul 30 2025
    If the Apostle Paul walked into any church service on a Sunday morning, it’s likely that service would grind to an immediate halt. But would that be what Paul would want? What does Paul say about his relationship to the church… to you and I? And what does that prompt us to do in our spiritual family meetings? We’ll look at that in this study.

    Maybe you’re a fixer. If you see a problem, your inner self wants to jump in and improve the situation. In our study today, we’re going to ask if we are subtly trying to “fix” Christianity by finding ways we can make it more “accessible.” Paul wrote a letter to a church who was doing this. Let’s see how that letter lands for us. Galatians 1:1-2 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Prophet of Hope: Not Giving Up, Part 2
    Jul 28 2025
    We’re looking at how God does not give up on us. This passage provides ten promises that demonstrate that enduring love. But what are the implications of that persistent love in our efforts to face challenges? Is it possible for us to fail so massively that we cannot be restored? How do we glean hope out of the rubble of what we’ve done? The prophet has good news for us. Zechariah 8:1-23 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Winning is great! We love to celebrate winning. But is it even better to be a gracious winner?

    Prophet of Hope: Not Giving Up, Part 1
    Jul 25 2025
    A prophet looks ahead. A prophet of hope anticipates good things ahead. If we’ve failed miserably, can we still anticipate good things ahead? Is it possible to fail so miserably that we’re outside the realm of hope? Our objective is to gain a perspective of how our failure measures up to God’s promises and love.
