Get ready for a ride as we dive a little further into James, the New Testament book of wisdom. This won't be easy. You'll see.

In our series, Beyond Artificial Intelligence, we transition from Proverbs to James in this message. We cover only verse one, and some background. Still, hang on for a ride in which you could be pulled in to the world of wisdom in the book of James. This is destined to be quite a ride!

Arguably, this is the most used passage in the entire Bible by women to teach women how to be godly. Even so, there is something in this chapter for each of us. Grab your highlighters and get ready to get motivated by God's Word!

It's utterly amazing how God's wisdom via this ancient collection of wise sayings can be so incredibly relevant in modern times. Relevant, yes. Popular, no. Those who are more dedicated to their political parties might want a black marker instead of a highlighter for this one. Our Father pulls no punches as He advises us in this chapter. So, prepare to be taught some things with which you...

How appropriate this message fell on Father's Day, especially since by the time these sayings had been collected it had long been known that King Solomon's heir did not heed his father's wisdom. In light of that, this is truly fascinating!

Get ready for some very real and practical stuff right here. Grab your highlighters and your tissues!

Although there isn't any verse, talking about gluttony in this message, it is at least as uncomfortable as Chapter 25. Prepare to be challenged in different ways as the chapter deals with many topis (see the title above), including superstition, gossip, leadership, CBT, stress, feelings, behavior, consequences, repentance, and the lack of self-motivation. You might be ready to take notes, as w...

Sometimes we need to talk about uncomfortable things. Proverbs 25 begins a unique section of the book, and opens up some things we often don't want to discuss.

God's Word is chock full of wisdom, but especially so in Proverbs. Pay careful attention to sage advice from the greatest book of all time - The Bible.

Each time we go through a chapter in Proverbs, we are reminded of the remarkable wisdom God has given us in His Word. The more we learn His wisdom, the wiser we become. Who can come close to God's wisdom? So, let it move you to commit more of His Words to memory, and maybe you'll become a Sage for His glory and honor!

Have you heard the Apostle Paul was a chauvinist? Let's explore that topic and more as we peel back yet another loaded chapter in the book of Proverbs. It's loaded with lots of wise words for real life application. This one even brings up how we treat each other in our homes!

Just like so many other Proverbs, this one is chock full of wonderful tidbits of sage advice. Be forewarned, though. We will open a can of worms on this one.

Accountability, Responsibility, & Discipline are not popular subjects these days, but God inspired Solomon to repeatedly share sage advice, concerning these matters & more. Pay careful attention to the lessons in this collection of proverbs. There's so much to learn!

Does the Bible address snitching, naivety, or overconfidence of the rich? Read, listen, & learn from God's wisdom in this ancient text. Some things might surprise you. Pay careful attention, & become wiser!

Pastor/Chaplain Adams delivered this message on Resurrection Weekend 2024.

This is THE Megillah. Listen & learn about one of the greatest stories in world history. There is a lesson for all time in it. This book in the Talmud doesn't mention God, but God's sovereignty screams off the pages, nevertheless. Remember, when all hope seems lost, prayer to the one true God can do wonders!

Take a step back in time, & get motivated by fascinating & often untold history of powerful movements in Christianity. Learn, grow, & get pumped up by God's Word & strong people of old who became world-changers! Maybe God will move you to be just like them...

This one is long, but can prove quite therapeutic. Remember: highlight His Word, don't use a marker on it!
