In the world, one generation builds something, their children only maintain it, and their children tear it down. Truth, however is meant to endure. How can we build solidly in the truth so that the generations to come will still uphold it?

Because Jesus is highly exalted, and we all will bow before Him, godly fear must influence how we practice our faith. God has spoken particular guiding Words to each of us with a solemn charge- mind your own business, fear God only and follow Jesus!

Truth is a pursuit best undertaken with others. Your brothers and sisters in Christ are there to offer another perspective, and to help you find yours. Are you growing in fellowship or walking it alone?

The way for the righteous to continue in truth is to speak it in our hearts. As we take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, we get to live in God's reality.

Jesus was anointed with joy, more than any of His companions, but the road He had to take to get there was not an easy one. Just like Jesus, if we want to rejoice in the truth, we have to be willing to face hard realities.

To be like Jesus, we must let truth so reign in us that we become painfully consistent. Inside to outside, in public and in private, Jesus will make us authentic- whatever the cost- by the Spirit of Truth.

The truth never changes because Jesus does not. If we look at all that Jesus said was true, we can see that the constancy of truth is a matter of eternal life and death.

As the people of God, we have access to the mind of Christ- the very thoughts of God- by the Holy Spirit. In this message, we will look at the diverse vantage points afforded us by the Spirit, which together lead us to the Truth.

Truth is a treasure that has to be dug out of the ground, and it is only found when we look at information and events from multiple vantage points. Our enemy also assesses us from every angle, and if are not strategic, we- and the Truth itself- become easy prey. 

Reid Clark breaks down the meaning of each word of the phrase "God With Us" in this special Christmas season message.

God has one overwhelming message to tell us about our kids- they are a blessing! But this is also the very reason it causes such devastation when they rebel. Kids, same as mom and dad, have to take their place in God's order for His blessings to flow in their lives.

When God calls wives to honor their husbands, He is challenging His daughters to support them by living, loving and working alongside them, helping them become strong in the Lord.

When God called the man to be a covering to his wife, he was placing His daughter under her husband's loving protection and care. God's sons are called to love their wives as Jesus loved the church, giving themselves up for her. 

When the world was in darkness and was a great void, God spoke and brought order to it. In the same way, the darkness of sin brought about a striving between all people to dominate each other. Will we let God speak and bring His order into our lives?

Special message from guest speaker Brian Miller.

In order to grow as servants of Christ, we have to find ourselves in the continuum: Am I Hesitant, Heroic, Helpful, or Hard-Working?

The farmer works very hard because he understands one thing: If he doesn't see his work through to the end, he will lose the crop, will starve, and will have no means of income. We also have to learn diligence, or we risk losing our share of the crop.

Runners, even some with great skill, are disqualified if they break the fundamental rules of their competition. How closely am I paying attention to the guidelines God has given me for living this life?

Soldiers live for one purpose: to please their commanding officer. Do we have that kind of single-minded purpose, or are we entangled again in civilian affairs?

LBC Elder, Reid Clark, shares a message entitled, "God Is Not What We Expect, and He Is Better than We Would Imagine."

We spend our days seeking relational fulfillment through multiple shallow friendships, never really being real with anyone we know we can trust. "There is a friend that sticks closer than a brother." One is in heaven. Have I found the one that is here on earth?

Everything we could need was bought for us at the cross, including the chance to work together with God in our own sanctification. What specific traits will I develop as I apply all diligence toward growing in grace?

Everything we could need was bought for us at the cross, so why are all Christians not mature and excelling in grace? It may be because we are waiting for God to do something we must do ourselves.

Empty vessels can go on saying they are not empty, or they can admit their emptiness and receive a filling from God. If we will choose to seek, what might we receive? Maybe the fullness of God Himself.
