Biblical Truths from West Palm Beach church of Christ

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are beginning a new series for these two months called Restoring The Fallen. One of the amazing pictures about God is that he did not send all of his prophets condemning his people for their wickedness, only to leave them forever. God sent his prophets and his people rejected God’s message. So the people […] The post God’s Purpose of Election (1 Chronicles 1-10...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are in a series called Deconstructing and Reconstructing Faith. My goal in this series to answer some of the questions that I have seen and heard people facing, which is moving people to consider leaving the Lord, leaving the faith, leaving the scriptures, or leaving the church. In this lesson I want to talk […] The post Deconstructing Church appeared first on...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We have the tendency to drown out noise that becomes loud and repetitive. Car alarms fall into this category. We hear a car alarm and after a few seconds we can ignore its sounds. You might have seen parents do this with their screaming or nagging children. The child is just yelling but the parent […] The post Your Crossroads Moment (Jeremiah 6) appeared first on...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We have been in a series called Deconstructing and Reconstructing Faith. Our effort has been to consider some of the common reasons people question their faith and walk away from God, Jesus, the scriptures, or the faith. As I noted in the first lesson, there is not any way for me to address every concern […] The post Deconstructing Authority – Part 2 appeare...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. When we were children, it was fun to pretend. I used to watch cartoons and pretend to be the characters that I saw in those cartoons. Halloween is a time for children to pretend to be something that they cannot be in real life. It is fun to be able to pretend. But Jeremiah has […] The post Stop Pretending (Jeremiah 4-5) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We have been spending time in this series working through deconstruction. What I mean by deconstruction is that something happens that causes us to reconsider our Christian beliefs. I would like to remind us from the first lesson that we should always be rechecking our beliefs in light of the scriptures to make sure that […] The post Deconstructing Authority appea...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. How do you forgive a person who has ruined your life? How do you forgive people who have spent their lives working harm and evil against you? We have a saying, “Time heals all wounds.” I don’t know that “heal” is the right word. Maybe the word “forgets” may be more accurate because once the […] The post God Meant It For Good (Genesis 50) appeared first on Biblical...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are in a series in which we are looking at deconstructing and reconstructing faith. What I mean when I say “deconstruction” is that something happens in your life that causes you to reevaluate your faith and your understanding of Christianity. Then, sometimes that reevaluation leads to a complete abandonment of the faith. The reason […] The post Deconstructing...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Joseph has revealed himself to his brothers in Egypt. The brothers have changed over the years and now are willing to lay down their lives for the sake of their brother, Benjamin. Joseph has invited his family to move to Egypt where Joseph promises that he can care for them during the famine. Joseph told […] The post God Will Provide (Genesis 47-49) appeared first...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are starting a new series today called Deconstructing and Reconstructing Faith. Right now there are many who have grown up in pews of various Christian denominations and churches who are going through a process that they call “deconstruction.” Brian Zahnd defines deconstruction as “a crisis of Christian faith that leads to either a reevaluation […] The post Dec...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Joseph’s brothers are back in Egypt to buy grain for the family due to the severe famine occurring at that time. Joseph enacts his plan to keep Benjamin with him. He has his silver cup placed in his bag and sends the brothers away, fully expecting the brothers to abandon Benjamin like they did to […] The post God Put Me Here (Genesis 45-46) appeared first on Bibli...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Preparing To Return (Genesis 43:1-14) The famine continues in its severity over the earth. Pharaoh’s dream revealed that it would be a seven year famine that would wipe any abundance accumulating during the seven years of prosperity. The grain that Jacob’s son purchased in Egypt has run out as we come to Genesis 43. Jacob […] The post Winds of Change (Genesis 43-4...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. I would like to draw your attention to Matthew 27. As you are turning, I want to make an important point as we begin this morning. This lesson is not delivered because of the time found on our calendars. Every Sunday we come together to celebrate and remember the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus […] The post Risen (Matthew 27:55-28:20) appeared first on Bibl...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Joseph has experienced a major turn around in his life. What looked like a life ruined by his brothers hatred and jealousy has been dramatically reversed by God. Joseph went from prisoner to prime minister in a matter of moments in Genesis 41. At 30 years old, Joseph is running Egypt and only Pharaoh is […] The post Still Working Through It (Genesis 41-42) appeare...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. As we return to Matthew 27 we are in the midst of a horrifying scene. Jesus has been crucified and now hangs from the cross, suspended in the air by nails in his hands and feet. He has been crucified between two other criminals. The scene before us is a scene of shame and mockery. […] The post Forsaken (Matthew 27:45-54) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are looking at where God is in the midst of suffering. We are looking for these answers through lens of the life of Joseph. Joseph now finds himself in a prison but he is innocent. Joseph has done nothing worthy of being imprisoned. Nothing has gone right for Joseph in his life. Joseph did […] The post Wait For The Turn (Genesis 40-41) appeared first on Biblica...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Jesus has been condemned by the crowd. Barabbas has been released to the people and Jesus has been scourged in preparation for his crucifixion. But it will not be as simple as going out to the place of his execution. The Roman soldiers now will take a turn with Jesus. The Roman soldiers bring Jesus […] The post Crucified (Matthew 27:27-44) appeared first on Biblic...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. What an unexpected turn of events Joseph has just experienced! Joseph is 17 years old and his older brothers hate him. They hate him so much that they want to kill him. But rather than kill him, they sell him to some passing traders, figuring he will not survive what is in store for him.

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Condemned by the Sanhedrin council, Jesus is bound and led away to stand before Pilate, the governor of the region of Judea (Matthew 27:1-2). Now you have to appreciate what the Jewish leaders have to do to get Jesus before Pilate. Pilate is a Roman governor and would have no concern if Jesus called himself […] The post Tried (Matthew 27:11-26) appeared first on B...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. We are beginning a new series today called God In The Midst of Suffering. One of the hardest aspects of trials and suffering is wondering where God is in the moment. It does not look like God is with us. It does not feel like God is with us. So we are going to spend […] The post Fractured Family (Genesis 37-38) appeared first on Biblical Truths from West Palm Beac...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Jesus has been arrested and taken to the high priest where a trial has started. The trial is not a seeking of the truth. The trial is to find false witnesses that will give a false testimony about Jesus so that the ruling Jewish council can have him executed. All of the disciples abandoned Jesus […] The post Denied (Matthew 26:69-27:10) appeared first on Biblical...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. In Jeremiah 3 God is explaining why the people’s lack of guilt and shame has been a problem to the relationship. We noticed in our last lesson that God expects us to experience guilt and shame so that we will have clarity about what we have done, be genuine about our sin which then will […] The post Hope From Guilt and Shame (Jeremiah 3:19-4:4) appeared first on B...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. It is a secluded place in the darkness of the middle of the night. Jesus and his disciples are on the Mount of Olives. They have been told that they were all going to fall away tonight. Jesus has spent this time preparing with prayer. The disciples have spent this time sleeping. But now the […] The post Betrayed (Matthew 26:47-68) appeared first on Biblical Truths...

Speaker: Brent Kercheville. Open your copies of God’s word to Jeremiah 3. As you are turning to this place in the scriptures, I want to remind you about what the prophet Jeremiah is doing. God has called Jeremiah to preach to the nation of Judah, the southern nation that remained after Assyria destroyed the northern nation, Israel.
