In this message we seek a God-centered perspective in three areas of life: suffering, living, and dying. If we can see these things from God's divine perspective, and live the way the apostle Paul did, we can expect God to use in greater ways!

When Paul prayed for the Philippians what did He ask God to do? Interestingly, he didn't pray about all the things we usually pray about - safety, protection, healing, prosperity.

What do healthy church relationships look like? We get a wonderful example of healthy spiritual relationships in Philippians 1:1-8. Here we are encouraged to be thankful for one another, pray for one another, be confident of God's work in one another, and have a godly affection for one another.

There are two schools of thought concerning how sinners are saved. Some believe that the ultimate determiner of whether one person is saved or not comes down to the exercise of their will. The other school of thought believes that it comes down to the exercise of God's will. Which position is right? See what Jesus taught concerning this in John 6:35-45.
