Higher Aim with Dr. Curt Dodd

In today’s message, we are going to look at the definition of faith. And one of the greatest examples of faith in Scripture is the story of the Centurion in Luke chapter 7. The problem in this story was that the Centurion’s servant was sick and was about to die. Undoubtedly, he had sought out physicians, with no remedy or recourse. He heard that Jesus was in the area, and he knew what Jesus could...

Regardless of how old you are, God wants you to accomplish the dream that He placed within your heart. Otherwise, you will just sit and be seated, and get sour. That is not God's plan for your life! We need to understand how He has created us and what He wants to do in our lives. God has more for you than you could ever imagine. Don't go to sleep at the wheel. Instead, choose to boldly and confide...

From the moment you give your life to Christ, I wish that everything would come up roses, and everything would be better. Many people say that everything will be great as soon as you accept Christ. That is not what the New Testament teaches. Instead, it teaches a sobering concept of how to live this life regardless of what happens to you, even if it is suffering. As we wrap up this series, we’re g...

Today’s key passage teaches us a critical attitude that we need to embrace. We must dwell with a spiritual mindset as we develop a teachable spirit and destroy the curse of anxiety. To put it plainly, a spiritual mindset is essential for maturing believers. As followers of Jesus, we are in a spiritual war. There is another realm outside what you can see and experience. This dimension of reality is...

God wants us to learn how to cast our anxiety on Him. We are a very anxious people. Some 46 million American adults deal with anxiety. Do you know that between the ages of 18 and 25, about 50 % deal with anxiety? For adults older than 25, roughly 32-38 % deal with anxiety. So, sadly this is a very common issue across humanity. It is not only true for our culture now, but it applies to every cultur...

In the last couple of verses of 1 Peter chapter 5, Simon Peter gives the people some guidance on how to develop proper attitudes. We need to have the right attitude in order to live the Christian life like God wants us to live it. Unless we get our attitudes right, it will be difficult to hit the ball down the middle of the fairway when it comes to our faith.

Jesus spoke more about money than anything else while He was here on earth. When you look at the words of Jesus, He continually talks about being a steward. You need to be a man or a woman who honors God with everything that flows through your hands. That’s what it means to be a good steward. The Lord allows some people to be stewards over a great deal. With others, He makes them stewards over a l...
