Three Minute Thoughts

Just do it 13.12.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul reminds Timothy that speaking words of faith isn't enough. We also have to do the works of faith that match our words of faith.

To My Child 12.12.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul gives Timothy some clear direction and demonstrates his heart for his young child in the faith.

Finish It 09.12.2022 3:10 ↓

Jesus not only is the source of our faith, he's also the finisher of our faith.

By Faith 08.12.2022 3:10 ↓

What does it look like to live by faith?

One Timer 07.12.2022 3:10 ↓

Jesus offers one sacrifice for all time instead of a sacrifice that needs repeated.

Mel who? 05.12.2022 3:10 ↓

The writer to the Hebrews talks of a man from the Old Testament known as Melchizedek. Why is he so important? And how does Jesus compare?

Milk or Steak? 02.12.2022 3:10 ↓

The writer to the Hebrews differentiates between types of teaching and when we need one kind versus another.

Better than 01.12.2022 3:10 ↓

Jesus is better. That's pretty much all you need to know to look at Hebrews 3-4.

A different approach 30.11.2022 3:10 ↓

The book known as Hebrews has no specified author and very little extra detail is given. It's a different approach than we're used to with this kind of writing.

Man am I good! 29.11.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul could pat himself on the back in so many ways, instead he approaches this from a little different perspective.

Power of humility 28.11.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul reminds the Philippian church that his imprisonment isn't for nothing and that when we have the right focus (Jesus) then even the hardest times are manageable.

The right reason makes the difference 25.11.2022 3:10 ↓

When we have the right 'why' then we'll be able to endure some pretty interesting things. If we're in it for ourselves, then we'll likely not stand the test of time.

Mystery and Unity 24.11.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul reminds us that the gospel has unique power and ability and its intended recipients are a broader group than we might think.

The 3 pillars 23.11.2022 3:10 ↓

The three pillars of faith of a follower of Jesus are found in Ephesians 2:8-9. Check them and see why they're important.

A new way of living 22.11.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul reminds us that if we really believe what we say we believe, it should make us look different in the world.

Who is God? 21.11.2022 3:10 ↓

Paul reminds us exactly what we get when we see Jesus.

A hard thing to hear 18.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Paul reminds the people of Rome what Isaiah told the Israelites in the Old Testament. It wasn't easy for them to hear and if we take it to heart it won't be easy for us to hear either.

Run Aground 17.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Instead of asking God to take away the storm Paul sees the storm as a way to see God's provision.

Roll with the punches 16.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Paul struggles with challenge after challenge but he stays the course. A major lesson from Paul's life is that sometimes we need to learn to roll with the punches.

Playing both sides against the middle 15.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Paul knows his message and his audience and his own story to the point that he uses all of it to keep the kingdom message in front of everyone.

Long winded preacher 14.11.2022 3:42 ↓

No one should complain when the pastor preaches too long. Not a pastor today I know who's preached so long someone fell asleep and fell out the window.

Let them say dumb things 11.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Do we assume that everyone just gets it when it's not something they've grown up with like us?

Do we make it harder than it has to be? 10.11.2022 3:42 ↓

When it comes to believing in Jesus, we tend to set up structures that really aren't the most important thing. They might be helpful and promote order and unity but are they essential? Probably not.

Live what you believe 09.11.2022 3:42 ↓

Does your love for God shine through what you say and do? It should!
