Throughout history, there have been many people who searched for something that would keep them from aging.1 Ancient Gilgamesh supposedly found a plant that would make him young, but it was stolen from him before he could use it. The ancient historian, Herodotus, talked about a special water that lengthened people's lives. And Ponce de Leon was supposed to have searched for the fountain of youth i...

Clothed, Contending, and Kept This message centers on the truth that Jesus did not simply deliver us from an old way of living; He delivered us unto Himself so that we can live differently in this world. Ephesians 4 shows us that we are to put off the old man, be renewed in the spirit of our mind, and put on the new man. Romans 12 and Philippians 1 reinforce the same truth: as we continually prese...

Two of biblical counseling's most influential leaders died within a year of each other (Adams and Powlison), and the movement has been fracturing ever since. In this series finale, Dr. Jared Poulton joins Jared and Dr. Alan Strange to bring the story into the present: the growing rift between "clinically informed" and "historic" biblical counseling, the theological debates over common grace and se...

On this Let's Talk Pastor Rocky Stevenson of Benoni Bible Church is joined with Bill Jack from Worldview Academy in the USA, and they discuss and explore the biblical mandate for Christians to question authority and engage in critical thinking, contrasting this with secular educational models that often discourage inquiry. It introduces four foundational questions—clarifying meaning, establishing...

The sermon draws a theological parallel between the United States and the unnamed man casting out devils in Mark 9, arguing that America is currently acting in alignment with God's will despite opposition from other nations. Bro. Qualls presents ten similarities, asserting that America is anonymous in prophecy, alarmed by global suffering, available to act in Christ's name, and able to execute dec...

When it's time to Stop Controlling and Start Trusting True biblical peace comes from trusting God with our circumstances, not controlling every outcome ourselves. In this episode of SheRises, we examine anxiety, surrender, Christian responsibility, and the exhausting burden of trying to hold the reins of life. Jesus promises, "My peace I give you" (John | 14:27), but He never promises a trouble-fr...

Can Christians appreciate nude art? The Roman Catholic and fine art traditions think so. But is nudity really ok as long as it's "non-erotic" and "artistic?" Kevin Swanson and Joshua Schwisow investigate what scripture has to say about public nudity, shame, and lust. They discuss: - Is the body – God's creation – intrinsically shameful? - What the Bible says about uncovering nakedness…and what we...

In today's chaotic digital age, our spiritual well-being can easily become compromised by the overwhelming influence of social media. Platforms like TikTok, while providing valuable connections and resources, can also lead us into a cycle of comparison, distraction, and even sin. As we engage with these platforms, we risk losing sight of our spiritual priorities. Scripture reminds us in Hebrews 10...

What if Christians stopped thinking like spiritual refugees and began thinking like heirs? Scripture offers a dramatically different vision of responsibility, mission, obedience, and hope.

Why is it that leaders can be guilty of injustice and oppression for years, only to be finally removed from office or publicly disgraced when a sexual scandal breaks? Why do men like Bill Gothard or Joe Biden spend years openly using their authority and forcing women and children to endure their violations of intimacy through unwanted touches or closeness, and it is accepted? How do we solve these...

We ended last week… talking about the difference between the tribes of Reuben and Meroz… and the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali. When God called Reuben… they seriously thought about going… but they didn't. Meroz had the opportunity to go… and they didn't. But when God called Zebulun and Naphtali… they actually went. And that left us with a question: When God places an opportunity for obedience in...

You Are What You Think Colossians 3:1-4

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. (Jeremiah 29:11-14) *1/ The reason the Lord's people seek and find him - (Jeremiah 29:11) 2/ How they find him - (Jeremiah 29:12-13) 3/ The effect of the Lord being found by his people - (Jeremiah 29:14)* **Sermon summary:** This sermon explores the divine purpose behin...

There are many times that the Bible is used out of context. A sentence or even a whole verse is taken and we think: "Here we have facts and truth!" Yet when we look at the context, we find that this interpretation is lacking. The context defines and shows us the truth. Join us as we explore this problem and then look at the teaching regarding Jesus clearing the temple.

Looking at Philippians chapter 2 (the Kanosis passage) and seeing our need to esteem others better than ourselves.

This sermon explores the practical remedy for anxiety and worry found in Philippians 4:8-9, emphasizing the importance of intentionally directing one's thoughts toward what is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and praiseworthy. Drawing on John Bunyan's allegory of the soul's gates, the message warns against allowing falsehoods and harmful influences to penetrate the mind through the ear, eye, a...
