Front Porch Confessional

Pide is at the center of all that is bad in our lives.  The prophet Isaiah exposes this in us and makes us look at all that God has given us and what we have either rejected or accepted.

This question of what you will do with Jesus is a 2000 year challenge.  But, seriously...where are you at and how have you worked through this question?

God is speaking...all the time!  He is speaking to us in many different ways, but are we listening?

Christmas was never about a single day, but rather a fulfillment of a promise.  In this episode, we'll walk through this reality through the lens of the Prophet Isaiah. 

Where is our safety found and who feels it?  Solomon is getting to a core issue that we all struggle with.

God sees your heart and loves you, but we are unaware because we are blind to ourselves.  Solomon helps us understand how God sees us.

As I get older I am constantly asking the question about what a friend looks like.  Solomon is going to help us get right to the point.

Where is your identity rooted?  Solomon is going to lead us in the way of wisdom and answer some of the questions we've all been asking.

As we continue in Proverbs, Solomon helps us understand wealth and our perspective on it.

No one likes discipline, but what if it's the way in which we experience the care of God?

We make a lot of plans, but that's not bad.  The problem is when we think we know best and then ask God to bless us.  What does it look like to trust God?

Moses spoke to God like a friend...face to face, so what does that mean for us?

So often the question that haunts many of us is: God where are you?  In this passage, Jesus directs us to the answer.

Imagine when you learned that when all is lost, there is a turn in the road.  When we take a look at the covenant-keeping love of God the Father...everything changes.

For some reason I never looked at Thanksgiving as 2 separate words, but what does that mean and how can that impact the way we live our lives?

This beautiful promise from God is not just some future reality...it's available to us RIGHT NOW.

God is making all things BRAND NEW, but what does that mean for us TODAY?

The beautiful truth of Jesus ministry to us should impact the way we live our lives.

So often as we approach God we make it about us and what we will do.  In this passage, we are challenged to think a little deeper.

Paul give us a greater vision of Jesus than we could ever imagine, but how will it impact our lives.

Will you consider Jesus?  Paul is pointing us to Jesus and challenging us to slow down and reflect.

Pastor Paul is now getting right at the problem of our disunity, but are we willing to deal with it?

With all that Jesus and others have sacrificed, what are we called and commissioned to do and be?  Paul sits in prison, begging this small church to consider the cost.

There have been lies that we have believed about God, the Psalmist refocuses us.

We really struggle with fearing the Lord.  It doesn't seem to line up with logic, but what happens when we realize it's what releases us to really loving him?
