Has Jesus defeated your Sin or has your Sin defeated You?  How are you getting closer to Jesus?  Are you living in the freedom that Jesus offers?  Romans 6:1-11 & 1 Corinthians 15:1-4.

What are you carrying?  Have you given it to Jesus?  To Redeem your Baggage, you must First Give it to Jesus.  Luke 18:18-30

Jesus calls us to serve.  Serving can be self-serving or it can serve Jesus…but it can’t do both.  Do you serve others with joyful humility?  Mark 10:35-45 & Matthew 5:13-16.

There is a difference between Good Things and God Things.  Do you allow the Holy Spirit to bring to light the difference?  Matthew 16:21-28.

Our Desires Dictate and Determine Discipleship.  Have you giving your desires to Jesus for Him to shape them or do you allow your desires to shape you?  Psalm 37:4 & Luke 10:38-42

Jesus calls us to follow Him now.  We must not allow other desires and priorities to prevent us from obediently following Jesus.  Luke 9:51-62.

Do you love Jesus enough to give Him everything?  Is there anything you are holding back?  You cannot serve both God and money.  Matthew 6:19-24

Satan Divides and Conquers; Jesus Unifies and Redeems.  How do we discern who is for us and who is against us?  The Gospel message makes us a people.  We are called to come together as the people who confess Jesus as Lord to allow Jesus to do His redemption and transformative work in our lives.  When we do, we experience the beauty of the church. 

The hostility within us is often because we have held something back from Jesus.  Are you receiving the power Jesus wants to give you?  Do you fully love Jesus?

God created us to worship, but Money and Time Reveal your God.  What do you worship?  And how can you make sure you only worship Jesus?  Deuteronomy 18:9-14 & Matthew 22:35-40.

What happens when we attempt to fulfill desires without Jesus?  Our bodies are the temple of God because the Holy Spirit lives inside us, and we are made to bring glory to God…not ourselves.  Matthew 5:27-30 & 1 Corinthians 6:12-20.

You are either controlled by desires or conformed by the Spirit.  Does your life honor Jesus or are you holding onto things in this world?  Human Solutions do not solve Spiritual Problems.  Ephesians 5:15-20 & Romans 12:1-2

How do you conceal the sin in your life?  Only through the power of Jesus can selfishness, jealousy, and envy be eradicated. 

Jesus is the Prince of Peace, but what does that mean?  In our world, peace is achieved by defeating others.  Jesus doesn’t bring peace by violence.  He bore violence to bring us peace.  Luke 7:36-50 & 19:41-44 & Matthew 10:34

Jesus welcomes all to come to him…regardless of clout or credentials.  Jesus is the Father you’ve always needed from Luke 18:15-17.

Advent calls us to wait, receive, and trust.  The Almighty God Overcomes Relative Problems from Mark 4:35-41

If Jesus is the Wonderful Counselor, how is that displayed in your life?  In Mark 1:21-28, Jesus has solutions that transforms the world’s complications.

Jesus is the Way or He is not from John 14:1-14.

Jesus calls us to a new life, and He lived that life as an example for us.  John 13 shows Jesus’ example of service by washing His disciples feet. 

Jesus provide that which lasts eternally and gives us eternal significance.  Everything in this world will eventually pass away, but Jesus will not.  John 6:26-42.

Jesus calls us to be born again, but what does that mean (John 3:1-21).  Human actions and efforts will produce human results.  Jesus invites us to a new life that is possible only though the power of the Holy Spirit. 

Jesus came to restore the broken.  We search for truth, but the Truth (Jesus) is already here.  If Jesus is real in your life, how has He changed you from John 1:1-5, 14-18.

The Trickle from the Temple Transforms the Tainted.  What started out as a small flow of water became transformative because it came from God in Ezekiel 47:1-12.

Obedience Overcomes Every Obstacle.  God calls us to be obedient, and He will take care of the results.  This frees us to know that success is not the goal.  We must not allow fears from preventing us from following Jesus.  Courage is acting despite fear from Judges 6:27,37,39; 7:2-8.

Eliminate Every Excuse.  We all have them, but God has chosen you and is sending you.  Gideon’s story (Judges 6) shows us that God is with us and is sending us for His purposes.
