Dare To Venture

Send us Fan Mail The key to a Christian wife being able to submit to her husband the way God designed, is for her to be totally transformed, energized, and defined not by her skills and achievements, nor by the love she receives from her husband, but rather entirely by the Love of Christ for her!

Send us Fan Mail Speaker | Josh Sugg We see in 1 Peter what it means to get punched in the mouth, what it means to suffer. But Peter is going to hone in on one specific type of suffering: Unjust suffering . This is suffering we don’t deserve. Suffering that we have to endure even though we didn’t do anything wrong.  Even more specifically, this is suffering at the hands of someone who is causing y...

Send us Fan Mail As Christians this is NOT our home. We are aliens in this world. We are here on a work visa!!! The world has been handed over to the rule of Sin and Satan. Our mission is not to conquer and claim this world; only our King can do that and make no mistake Jesus is going to do that very thing! In the meantime, our mission is to point everybody to our King, while we live out the life...

Send us Fan Mail People may not realize they are even looking towards Christ when they see you, but if you are living out your God ordained calling as a child of God then people are going to see something in you that looks totally different than what they see in this world. They are going to see something that will either soften their hearts and cause them to want to know more about the God you lo...

Send us Fan Mail As vitally important as our relationships with one another are, our relationship with God is still by far the most important! It is the relationship that gives any purpose and meaning to our relationships with “one another” in the church, as well any worthwhile purpose and meaning to our own life! References 1 Peter 2:2-3 Discussion Questions   Notes  Bulletin   We’d love to conne...

Send us Fan Mail We cannot claim to use the Biblical language of church as a household when we do not actually spend time in household with other believers. At most we can say that we are occasional practitioners who have an appreciation from the church. But if we live as occasional practitioners of faith, how can we ever expect to excel in faith? References 1 Peter 1:22-25 - 2:1 Discussion Questi...

Send us Fan Mail Most people understand that excellence in almost any area of life is a function of the state of our minds when we engage in the activities. Coaches preach this in athletics. Teachers exhort this in academics. Bosses encourage this on the job. The quality of familial relationships often rises and falls based on the mental presence of the family members. We should not be surprised t...

Send us Fan Mail It takes people who love being loved by Jesus more than anything, and as such are so driven to know Him and serve Him that they venture to labor together to do whatever it takes to change their community and the world with the Gospel! That’s how you pave a path for future generations, you go all in to reach the world around you now! References 1 Peter 1:10-12  Discussion Questions...

Send us Fan Mail In 1 Peter 1:6-9, Peter highlights two of the values that are clearly essential for thriving as an exile. That is, for those living in a world that cancels us for our faith in Christ, there are two essential values we have to truly cling to in order to feel successful in the midst of persecution.

Send us Fan Mail Speaker | Jason Gilbert Peter begins the body of his letter by ecstatically praising God. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” He then takes the remainder of three verses to tell us why God is deserving of praise. Jason’s sermon demonstrates how each of these reasons for praising God leads to the next reason. God in his wisdom gave us his mercy, which leads to...

Send us Fan Mail With this study through First Peter we are going to take much smaller bites. Each spoon full takes you deeper into a world of faith in Christ that is unknowable apart from the knowledge of the Gospel. Its why this little letter known as First Peter is like eating a meal at a five-star restaurant. It’s not a huge plate of food but when you slow down, take smaller bites, and actuall...

Send us Fan Mail Speaker | Spencer Davis | From Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters These passages aren’t meant to confuse and divide us. They’re meant to encourage and prepare us. We won't know all the right answers, or be able to decode every prophecy in the Bible. However, we can have hope in the fact we know the Lamb. That isn't confusing, it is clear what a relationship with Jesus Christ...

Send us Fan Mail Daniel’s eyes are opened to a spiritual reality that most people in their day-to-day life are immune from seeing. He is visited by a supernatural being who talks about massive cosmic battle raging in the spiritual realm amongst the angels and demonic forces who influence the earthly human realm.

Send us Fan Mail There clearest message in Daniel 9 is Daniel’s prayer of repentance and the fact that God responded in love. As Christians, we should never lose the wonder that God would desire to be in relationship to us and respond with love and forgiveness to our brokenness.

Send us Fan Mail As we progress in the latter half of the book of Daniel we should remember that we are in a genre known as apocalyptic literature. One of the great characteristics of apocalyptic literature is its heavy use of symbolism in speaking about real-world events. Because of the heavy use of symbols, sometimes the reference of the symbols is a bit unclear to the readers, as much as it may...

Send us Fan Mail The lack of boundaries and clarity between public and private is what lands Daniel into hot water in a way that we today find difficult to understand. But Daniel does give us clarity as to what it means to live by conviction and to give our utmost allegiance to God regardless of personal cost.

Send us Fan Mail At the root, arrogance is much more than a person who boasts to much about their own accomplishments, arrogance is an over inflated view of ourselves that results from a de=lated view of God! Arrogance not only shows itself in what we say but it shows itself even in how we observe and think about the world around us! References Daniel 5  Notes   We’d love to connect with you, foll...

Send us Fan Mail Everything comes to a head in chapter 4 when Nebuchadnezzar finally breaks! He finally not only acknowledges God’s dominion over everybody and everything but also submits to Him. This deeply immoral, pagan, idolatrous arrogant King finally repents and believes in God! It was such a substantial event that what we are getting ready to read is the personal testimony of Nebuchadnezzar...

Send us Fan Mail Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego made it real clear they had no idea whether God was going to rescue them from the fire. However, this did not stop them for having confidence that God was in control. They trusted in God as a person, not in being rescued from the fire. No matter what the outcome was going to be, they were consumed with God.  References Daniel 3  Notes     We’d love...
