Everyone wants to be a leader. There are many books and resources about becoming a leader. But, the Bible is also filled with faithful followers. In this message, Pastor Rod Loy looks at the story of a famous follower.
Too many Christians look at the world around us and only see the negative: they fret and worry about dark days ahead for the Church. While we should be aware of what is happening in the world, the Bible tells us the end: We Win! The Bible tell us to be confident in our faith, because God wins in the end. We should walk in victory, and not fear!
The word "holiness" brings to mind a lot of different definitions, depending on your age or where you live. Is it a certain way of dressing, or rules about where you can go and what you can do? What does the Bible mean when it says that followers of Christ should be "separate" from the world?
We are used to shouting, cheering, and celebrating after a sports win, but many of us have forgotten that all throughout the Bible, God's people celebrate His goodness in the same way. The modern American church seems to have lost its shout.
One of the things we seem to have lost over time is our song. Sometimes life gets us down. How can we have joy, how can we sing with the way the world seems to be going today? Have you been there? What do you do when you lose your song?
It's an interesting time in America right now. It seems like a lot of people have lost their sanity. They are going crazy, giving in to fear and believing some of the most ridiculous things. Remember, we serve a God who is everywhere. He is bigger, stronger, and mightier than any crisis or political party. What can Christ followers do to restore some sanity on our culture? You may not like the answer.
It's a horrible feeling to lose something special and important to you. In this message, Pastor Rod Loy talks about something many Christians seem to have lost - something special, important, that Scripture commands. Too many Christians have lost their smile. They don't display the joy of knowing, following, and serving Jesus.
The American church hasn't always been willing to talk about suffering. But we can't avoid the topic - the Bible spends a fair amount of time on this subject. How should a believer face suffering?
Loneliness can affect all of us. Sometimes it is for a moment, and sometimes it seems like it will never end. What can we do at these times of life?
Sometimes, it seems like the storms of life just drag on and on. Then, you think maybe things are settling down. But then there's one more thing. Sometimes, it's the one more thing that tips you over the edge. You survived a major storm, but now, here you go again. What can we do when one more thing pops up in our lives?
When you are in a storm of life, you deal with so many emotions, like fear, loneliness, and anger. When the storm drags on, you may deal with discouragement or depression. So, what do you do? How do you survive life's storms?
We all go through storms in our lives. We're not talking here about natural storms: thunderstorms, hurricanes, or blizzards. We all face storms of life: divorce, sickness, sorrow, or death. It's like there is no way out and no hope. You don't always know where to turn, but you definitely want the storm to end! What should you do when you find yourself in a storm?
When you look at the title of this message, you may think, "I don't need any help making bad decisions. I'm good at that on my own!" But in this story from the Bible, we learn the patterns of bad decision making so we can recognize it in our lives and change our approach.
The lostness of our world should break our hearts. What is our reaction supposed to be to all the hurt and pain? Sin should break our hearts and move us to tears. We are supposed to share our faith! In this message, Pastor Parker Loy looks at the story of the Apostle Paul in Athens, and how he shared his faith with that culture. What he did applies to us in our culture, too!
One of life's biggest problems is something most people don't see as a problem at all - success. We've all failed, but many times the more difficult test of an individual is how they handle success.
You should be able to walk in the door of church and feel loved and accepted. But any time people live, work, or spend lots of time together, conflict inevitably happens. Even at church, people can disagree. The true test of faith and maturity is - how will we conduct ourselves, and how can we resolve these issues? What does it mean to resolve conflict Biblically?
In this message, we look at one of the most incredible stories in the Bible. Two guys, as different from each other as they could be, both had incredible visions from God. One was a Christian, and the other was a Christian killer. It's a story filled with danger, intrigue, surprise, and adventure.
