Shame, Genesis 2:24-3:13 “If you don’t pay me, I will expose you.” Or “If you don’t do exactly what I say, I will post that video of you.” This blackmail tactic is similar to how Satan manipulates us with shame:  “If you try to launch a ministry, I will tell the church who you really are.”  He reminds us of our former sinful selves, taunts us, and makes us prisoners of our shame. We hide and becom...

Moses Series:  Putting God on Trial, Exodus 17:1–6 Believe or not, there are actual lawsuits on record where people have tried to sue God. The first one I heard about was from Ernie Chambers, a Senator from Nebraska. Just like the others, he cited God as being negligent because of the evil, suffering, and destruction taking place all across the world he created. The judge threw out the case saying...

Arguing with God, Exodus 4:1-14 God is calling you to something and asking you to take a step of faith, but there is a reluctance and an insecurity in you. The question that stood out to me this week was: Do I have complete reverence and trust in God in all things? All things? ALL THINGS?! We reviewed incredible gospel truths from Philippians to include Phil. 1:6 and 2:13 which both point us to th...

Have You Pitched Your Tent?  My first year in college, I learned about a group on campus called the Atheist Agenda. They had set up a table in one of the common areas and were provoking Christians by offering students sexually explicit magazines and DVDs in exchange for Bibles. They called the exchange “Smut for Smut.” I was walking to class with a friend who professed to be a Christian and I reme...

Prophet, Priest, and King, Isaiah 61:1-4; 1 Peter 2:9 If you get Jesus right, you get everything else right. If you get Jesus wrong… it doesn’t matter what else you get right. Yesterday we reviewed Isaiah 61:1-4 to capture a snippet of how Jesus’ life and ministry are described. Since we are the body of Christ, he equips us to fulfill his earthly ministry as a representation of him. So, it is usef...

Some pastors and theologians call Romans 8 the greatest passage in all of Scripture. We could debate that, but we can at least agree that you won’t find better news than the pronouncement that “There is therefore now no condemnation for those that are in Christ Jesus” (8:1). Jesus carried our condemnation on himself so that God could work out the righteous requirements of the law in us. I wish I c...

Moses Series Pt II:  Moses, the Meekest Man on Earth “Now the man Moses was very meek, more than all people who were on the face of the earth” (Num. 12:3). Years ago, I was helping someone get ready for a leadership interview. As we were talking, he made a comment along the lines of, “I’m just so humble that people don’t always know what to do with me.” I tried to lovingly help him understand that...

Moses, the man who couldn’t talk good… Pt. 1 (Exodus 2:1-8) It was sweet on Sunday to think about the role of moms and how their faith helps to shape the lives of some of God’s greatest leaders. See Jochebed, Naomi, Ruth, Mary… and many others. In Exo. 2:2, Moses’ mom saw that “he was a fine child.” There was something special in him so she hid him away. We learned Sunday that prophetic vision ove...

The Weight of Worship, James 1:27-2:7 We learned yesterday that the word “religion” ultimately means “worship.” Remember that James’ letter is written to the people of God “in the Dispersion” (James 1:1). In other words, he’s writing to believers scattered across the regions. I can imagine them saying, “What is our religion now if we can’t get to the Temple?” Or, “I have the rabbi’s teachings memo...

Tribulation, Kingdom, and Patience Rev. 12:13-17 I have noticed that a lot of sermons and discussions on Revelation are mostly about people desperately trying to figure out for sure if God is going to yank Christians out of here before the intense suffering starts. It’s not an excitement about our Lord coming back. It’s more of, “yeah, I don’t want to suffer so get me up out of here.” But that’s n...

Sermon Recap I encourage you to reflect and pray on what we heard. “For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, ‘Abba! Father!’” (Rom. 8:15). Remember:  the Holy Spirit’s mission towards us is first to make us spiritually alive and to keep us from being slaves to fear. The Holy Spirit will never motivat...
