Wake Before the Day

Psalm 32 shows us that confession is a great gift. While it can be terrifying to confront our sin it is definitely a gift and something God calls us to. Join us as we unpack the gift of confession (and food poisoning)! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In this chapter the Lord and his word are described as: perfect, refreshing, trustworthy, wise, right, joy giving, radiant, pure and eternal. We are to desire God and his word more than "precious gold". The question is do we? @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In Psalm 4, it seems there is chaos breaking out all around the Psalmist. Often when life gets hard we're quick to say, "God help! Change my circumstances!" But in this Psalm, we are encouraged to ask God to change our heart first in the midst of our circumstances. The Psalmist joins Jesus and Paul focusing on prayer directed toward heart change. Let's see what we can learn fro...

Allow the resurrected Jesus Christ to reshape and reform the way you live your life and treat other people! Let's discuss the final chapter of Colossians. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Who doesn't want "peace" in their heart? The Bible seems to talk a lot about "peace", I wonder why we don't experience it more. Colossians 3 teaches us that what we think about and look at greatly impact our lives. When Jesus is in his rightful place everything else seems to fall into place as well.   @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

There is a false humility in the church today with people saying "I don't know" to questions. While the Bible may not speak to every single thing in life it does speak to all that pertains to faith, salvation and a flourishing life with God. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

What's the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation? What does it mean that God has reconciled humanity to himself? Join us as we unpack Colossians 1 and freedom that is now ours in Christ. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Earthly things will rot. Heed the words of Jesus and use your stuff to bless others! Sick? Seek God in prayer and the anointing of oil. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

How do we act when we don't get our way? Clearly the early church was foul mouthed, jealous and bitter about something! If we're honest with ourselves we can relate to some extent. Let's look at James 4 and see what the Lord has for us. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Your words are powerful, more than you may realize! Godly speech and understanding come from a life aligned to God's Word.  @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Our lives reveal what we really believe. Our deeds don't save us but our deeds reveal what's really inside us. A genuine faith or imposter syndrome? @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Why should trials and hardships be considered a good thing? James 1 breaks it down for us and gives us practical steps to take in the midst of the difficult time. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

In wrapping up Hebrews we discuss angels in disguise, living a life of praise and praying for a full equipping to do with will of God. Let's go! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

It's important to identify sin that is quick to ensnare and entertain. The remedy is to fix your eyes, thoughts and attention on Jesus. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

We receive the gift of faith from God and then are called to exercise our "faith muscle" even when our life and ministry appear "fruitless"! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Some of us need to take Jesus' forgiveness seriously and forgive ourselves. Others of us need to take our sin more seriously. Which are you? @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Jesus offers the forgiveness of sins and to cleanse our conscience. Has this been your experience? Let's discuss. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

So Jesus is greater than ... Moses, angels, the high priest ... the list goes on and on. What's the big deal? Jesus' kingdom and way of life is different and greater than anything humanity had ever known. God's law isn't on a stone tablet anymore it's on the believer's heart. It's not something we take off and put on, he's forever with us. @klarckorver @bobb...

Jesus is unchanging which means the path to salvation and salvation itself are also unchanging! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Today we respond to a question that has been asked for a very long time, "Can a believer lose their salvation?" Let's interpret the Bible with the Bible as we address some seemingly difficult verses. @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Jesus, being fully God, was more human than most give him credit for. What does it mean that Jesus "learned obedience"?  @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

The Sabbath rest is a gift given to the people of God that rests in the work of Jesus and gives us a glimpse of heaven! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Let's discuss how we can "fix our eyes on Jesus". @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Do you know how you drift? By not doing anything! God calls us to "tend to" the faith by actively following Jesus! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles www.erc.la info@erc.la

Hebrews 1 makes one thing very clear, Jesus is God and is to be treated as such. The author uses the Old Testament to describe Christ and his Kingdom. In the description we're told the Lord loves righteousness and hates wickedness. How does our love/hate list compare to God's? What adjectives would you use to describe Jesus? Let's dive in! @klarckorver @bobbiekorver @erclosangeles w...
