Tusculum Church of Christ

God is patient, but not passive. Nahum shows us how divine justice deals with cruelty, and why that’s good news for the oppressed.

Chapter 5 of our overview of the Bible. This lesson focuses on the time after Joshua and the judges, when kingship was established in Israel. We discuss the ups and downs of both King and Temple and the role they played among Israel. God is our only true king!

When we elevate ourselves, we fall the hardest. Obadiah calls us to humility before pride ruins what matters most.

This class is based on chapter 4, covering the time after Moses up until the time of the Kings. Joshua led the people to many great victories, to the point of dividing up portions of the Promised Land to the various tribes. But all throughout the kingdom, people were sidetracked and distracted and ultimately turned to idolatry and violence, much like the people who had occupied the land before the...

From the skies above to the Scriptures we read, God’s voice surrounds us—inviting us to notice, reflect, and respond.

Lesson Three in the series. We look at the time period of the Exodus up to the edge of the Promised Land, reflecting on the nature of Grace and Law, and how to respond well to God's mercy.

Guilt and regret can weigh us down, but Psalm 32 offers us a way to experience real relief through honest confession.

This class looks at the chunk of history which contains the stories of the Patriarchs, from Adam and Eve up to the end of Joseph's life when he passed in Egypt.

Even when the world feels like it’s falling apart, God is our unshakable refuge—we’ll learn how to rest in that truth.

The first lesson in the study, covering what we know about God from before we had our beginning. What was God doing before the beginning? Note: Around the middle of the class, we had technical difficulties, so because there are two clips spliced together, there will be a jump in content with different sound quality.

When life feels shaky and unclear, this psalm reminds us where our help truly comes from and why we can lift our eyes in hope.

Faith isn’t about having all the answers. It starts with trust, even when you’re still wrestling with questions.

If God exists, what kind of God would be worthy of trust? Christianity reveals a God of love, not domination—a God who came near.

Yes, there are definite times where people following religions have done damage—but Jesus is not the problem. Jesus critiques toxic religion and offers a way of justice and healing that our world still needs.

We want justice, compassion, and human dignity—but where do those values come from? Faith doesn’t just promote goodness; it makes goodness possible.

Sometimes life doesn't make sense in the moment. But with faith and hindsight, we come to learn that God has been with us, helping us all along. He never abandons us. He is always faithful.

We all live by a story—about who we are, why we’re here, and what matters most. The Christian story offers beauty, resilience, and a purpose even in suffering.

Even in an age of deconstruction, belief hasn’t vanished. In fact, it still speaks to something deep in every human heart.

Today we have a special worship service to build around the beauty of Summer, and the new possibilities for us of getting out and about, serving the Lord as we go. The whole worship service is oriented around different facets of this important theme, using the book of Jude as a basis.

Holiness is found in Christ's example. Holiness is experienced as God's gift to us. And holiness must also be practiced as our way of life and our attitude toward one another. What does holiness look like in action?

It is easy to lose sight of the Eternal in the temporary where we live. But the place to which God calls us goes beyond what can be touched or measured. We must not reject the invitation to be connected to the life of God's anointed, whose blood speaks powerfully on our behalf. 

In our race for Christ, sometimes it feels like we are only limping toward the finish line. Yet through our struggles, we are educated and perfected in the ways and culture of our faith. We get stronger in the struggles and must therefore embrace how God can use them.

A special word on Mother's Day. We appreciate all the ways our mothers reflect the heart of God. Jesus, in his tenderness, patience, and strength, is an example for all of us in how we treat one another.

Mark Adams, P.R. Anderson, and Earl Santymire take time for special presentations on this Sunday following a congregational survey about women's inclusion in the life of our congregation. They share about basic driving principles, survey responses, and information about our direction from here.

Sometimes life moves us to exclaim, "God, how could you?!" But when it comes to our own actions, we dearly need the hope we find in Scripture: That God's forgiveness is bigger than our deepest faults.
