Acts 16:1-12 - "Pivot Point" - Micah Routon Closed doors are something that everybody will encounter. Sometimes, those doors may be closed by God Himself. That's okay because God knows what He's doing.

Jeremiah 30 - "He Who has Begun a Good Work in You will Complete It" - Jason Arsenault The Lord's words revealed to us in the Scriptures will by no means pass away. He will complete every promise, we can count on it.

Acts 15:1-13 - "Earthen Vessels" - Micah Routon The Lord is an artist, and He can take even our mistakes and our humanity and weave them into what He is doing just as He did with Paul and Barnabas. As children of God, we want to be used in his service. We look to Jesus, who is the author and the finisher of our faith, and we want to be like Him.  But there's tension because we are earthen vessels.

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 29, "Our Citizenship is in Heaven", Jason Arsenault Knowing full well that the grass here withers, the flower fades, and that the Word of the Lord stands forever—knowing that when we see Him we will be like Him—we place our hope fully in Him and endeavor to live our lives here on this earth accordingly.

Acts 15:1-13 - "Body Building" - Micah Routon The early church was no stranger to conflict. At the Jerusalem Counsel, amid tension and stress, the apostles sought above all for God's will and for unity.

Acts 14:19-28 - "We Must Through Many Tribulations Enter the Kingdom of God" - Jason Arsenault We continue to walk through the many trials of this earth by faith, knowing that while we are at home in this body, we are absent from the Lord, earnestly desiring that final day when we will forever by absent from the body and present with Him.

Genesis 1:1-5 - "God Divided the Light from the Darkness," Jason Arsenault In the beginning God separated the light from the darkness. Every Christmas we celebrate that the Light of the World was born—the One who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light, and has delivered us from the power of darkness.

Acts 14:11-18 (Part 2) - "In Human Form," Micah Routon In Bethlehem we don't see insecure gods like those of the Lycaonians that demanded to be worshiped. In Bethlehem, we see something different: a God that so loved the world that He stepped into humanity to save.

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 27-28, "Increasing in Love, Knowledge, & Discernment", Jason Arsenault Knowing that our adversary, the devil, is still prowling around, we endeavor to walk in Christ's footsteps, walking in love in all knowledge and discernment.

Weekend Through the Bible Teaching, Acts 14:8-18 - "Born to Save", Micah Routon The thrill of hope; a weary world rejoices. That's what Christmas is about—not candy canes, presents, Santa Claus, or trees. Jesus came to save; to save us from our sin. The question is: are you saved?

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 26, "Put on the Whole Armor of God", Jason Arsenault As the Lord continues to warn the people of Judah of the coming judgment, Jeremiah's life is threatened. How can he stand in this evil day against the wiles of the devil? The same way you and I stand today...

Weekend Through the Bible Teaching, Acts 14:1-7 - "Defined by Division", Micah Routon Our decision to follow Jesus will bring division in this life, perhaps even within our own families. But when we come to Him, we are given a new family and a new purpose.

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 24-25, "The Lord Knows Those Who are His", Jason Arsenault As the Lord continues to warn the people of Judah of the coming judgment, He assures them that He will make a distinction, setting His eyes on those who know Him for good, and those who follow their own hearts for destruction.

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, 1 Corinthians 15:50-58 - "Thanks be to God" - Jason Arsenault We know it’s God’s will that we give thanks in every situation, in every circumstance, in every season. It’s simple, but not always easy. Thankfully, we have an eternal hope in Christ beyond this life giving us cause to keep our eyes on Him who gave everything for us!

Weekend Through the Bible Teaching, Acts 13:13-52 - "Salvation for Everyone" - Jason Arsenault In Antioch, Paul and Barnabas proclaim the gospel first to the Jews, and then, as the Jews reject it, they turn to the Gentiles. The message for us today is the same as it was then: beware lest you hear and not believe. Salvation is in Him and Him alone. We must receive Him by grace through faith and we...

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Numbers 20:1-13, "Smiting the Rock", Mike Wicksted The Bible has many symbols and types. Numbers 20 foreshadows the relationship between Jesus and the people of Israel. The Scripture truly is all about Jesus Christ!

Weekend Through the Bible Teaching, Acts 13:1-13 - "Learn as You Go", Micah Routon Paul and Barnabas were learning ministry as they went which meant there would be failure. They were inexperienced, starting something from scratch, but God knew what He was doing when He called them. He knew what He was doing in Cyprus, and as Paul and Barnabas followed, they learned and they grew. 

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 23, "Take Heed to Yourself", Jason Arsenault As the noise of life causes us to forget our essential needs, so the roaring of the lion, the Adversary, who is still walking about today, working through false prophets and teachers, can distract us from the only thing that is able to keep us grounded.

Weekend Through the Bible Teaching, Acts 11:1-26 - "Politics, Prayer, & Power", Micah Routon As we see the politics of Herod Agrippa, and reflect on the politics of our own times, let us look to the One good and selfless King. So selfless that He gave his own life to do the will of the Father.

Midweek Through the Bible Teaching, Jeremiah 21-22, "Strong is the One who Executes His Word", Jason Arsenault We live in the realm of the unknown and the uncertain.
