Matthew 6: Moving the Kingdom Inside

Where does your treasure lie? What are your motives in giving, praying and fasting? Will you let Jesus challenge your thinking? This week we look at the words of Jesus in Matthew 6 to align our perspectives with His.

The Promised Son and the Sacrifice: Genesis 21-22

What do you put ahead of God in your life? Is it your kids, your hobbies, your time? The Lord asks us to lay those things before Him and make Him first in our lives. This week we look at Genesis chapters 21-22 to see the faith of Abraham when the Lord asked him to sacrifice his son and the faithfulness of our Lord to Abraham’s obedience.

Believe God – Genesis 15-16

Often it is difficult to have faith in the promises of our Lord. We struggle to believe that what He has promised us will be fulfilled. This week in Genesis, chapters 15-16, we see Abram’s faith in the promises of the Lord and how God fulfills His promises to His people, including us.

Genesis 9-11

Paul takes us through the next part of Genesis where the flood recedes, Noah comes off the ark. we also hear how people once again rebel against God by building a tower to make a name for themselves.

Genesis 3-4

This week we continue with our series: In the Beginning. Genesis 3 shares the darkest news yet offers the light of hope!

The Coming of the Messiah: God Comes to Earth

Sometimes we feel like the events in our lives are overlooked by God but just like He planned out every detail of Jesus’ birth, He has planned out every single moment of every day in our lives.  He sent a Savior born for you!  This week we study how God fulfilled His promises for us in the coming of Jesus Christ and why we are in need a Savior.

1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:13

God does give us things we can’t handle ourselves but He rescued us.  Through Him we can trust that He solves our sin problem and helps us overcome it day by day.  This week we look at 1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:13 to learn how we can come together to support each other as we face the temptations and trials of this life.
