Does God care about our thought life? It is easy to think we can separate the actions of our life from the thoughts of our mind.

Colossians 2:16-23 - Were You Beat Up By A Church Bully?




In spite of school initiatives, bullying is common. Approximately 160,000 kids stay home from school each day to avoid being bullied.

Colossians 2:6-15 - Why Is Jesus All I Need?




Where do you find your sense of self-worth? For most of us, it is in our work. For stay-at-home mom's, their identity is usually found in being a mother. If you are in high school, your identity is often found in your sport or the instrument you plan in the band. The problem is, when what we do is taken away from us, it crushes our understanding of who we are. In Colossians, Paul shows us how our identity doesn't come from what we do but what God has done for us through Jesus. This is the key to overcoming our depression and sagging self-worth.

Colossians 1:24-2:5 - What Is The Most Powerful Force In The World?




Many have tried to push the gospel out of existence. In 1949, when the communists took over China, there were 1 million Christians. In spite being forced to operate in secret, the church in China has grown to 60 million Christians. The good news of Jesus continues to make progress against powerful opposition. As we continue our study in Colossians, Paul tells us God's plan to spread the good news of Jesus around the world.

Colossians 1:15-23 - Who Is Jesus?




Jesus asked his disciples the most important question in the history of the world. Who do you say I am? Today, there is no shortage of answers. Jehovah's Witnesses claim Jesus is the archangel Michael and the first created being. Mormons say he is the half-brother of Lucifer and we can become like him. Islam claims his is a good prophet, but inferior to Mohammed. Hindus claim he is a holy man. In this study we learn what the Bible says is the true identity of Jesus and why understanding his true identity changes your life.

Have you ever faced a time when everything is falling apart? Corporate cutbacks leave you unemployed. An unexpected accident takes away a child you love. It feels like the world has come completely unglued. Where is God in this mess? The book of Ruth shows us that in the mess of our sin God is still at work to do undeserved good to his people in the most unexpected way.

1 Timothy 6:17-21 - How Should A Christian Handle Wealth?




If you won the lottery, what would you do with it? How much of it would you save? How much would you give away? How much would you spend? As Paul closes his letter to Timothy, he instructs the wealthy in Ephesus how to handle their money for God's glory. While we haven't won the lottery, like the wealthy in Ephesus, we have more than enough. We don't know how much should be enjoyed, given away or saved. Paul's final words help guide us in wisely using our wealth.

1 Timothy 6:11-16 - What Is A Good Pastor?




What is a good pastor? Is it his use of humor? Is it the way he programs Sunday services? As Paul closes his letter to Timothy and the church in Ephesus, he charges Timothy to pastor the church of Ephesus well. He details what it will take to him to be a good pastor. What we learn is not just what it takes to be a good pastor but what it takes for anyone in the church leading a ministry to do it well for God's honor and glory.

We live in an affluent culture where we are bombarded by pressure to by the latest and the greatest. Advertisers spend a startling amount of money endeavoring to create a need in us to buy their stuff.

1 Timothy 5:17-25 - How Should I Treat My Church Leaders?




When President Trump was running for office, he was invited on the Jimmy Fallon show. At the end of the interview, Jimmy asked if he could put his hand in candidate Trump's perfect hair and mess it up. Commentators from both sides of the aisle and later Jimmy Fallon himself regretted his actions. He showed a lack of respect for what would become one of the most powerful men in the world, the President of the United States.

1 Timothy 5:1-8 - What Are God's Cures For Loneliness and Vulnerability?




Do you feel lonely? Estimates say 1 in every 5 people in the United States struggle with it. Loneliness is particularly prevalent in the elderly. One study in Britain discovered that half a million people over 60 go for an entire week without seeing anyone. A million over the age of 60 only see someone once every 5 or 6 days. The research is clear. Many of us struggle with loneliness but it is rampant among the elderly. Join us as we discover God's answer to loneliness.

If you were looking for a good pastor, what would you look for? Is a good pastor just someone that makes you laugh with his jokes and amazes you with his care?

1 Timothy 1:12-20 - Jesus Changes Lives




Is there a time in life when we are beyond hope? Is there a time when our life is ruined beyond repair? In this study, we learn that no matter what we have done, there is always hope and a future through Jesus. When it comes to hope for the future what matters is not the size of our sin but what we do with Jesus, our savior.

1 Timothy 1:1-11 - Don't Take Your Eyes Off Jesus




What is the latest popular Christian book you read? Was it
The Four Blood Moons? Was it Heaven is For Real by Todd Burpo? While these types of books are engaging, they lead us toward speculation instead of Jesus. In the opening verses of Paul's letter to Timothy, he warns Timothy—and us—about the danger of becoming captivated by theological fantasies and being distracted from Jesus.
