Bedtime Stories – Adam, Eve, & the Serpent

In this lesson, we are looking at Joshua 6 and the “battle” of Jericho.  The ironic thing about this text is that the “battle” is only two verses long, whereas the instructions take up most of the chapter.  It seems like the writer was using slow-motion to capture the wrong points.  But actually he’s simply emphasizing obedience over action.  I’m going to propose that we often revolt against God’s plan due to fear or because we have a better plan.  Both of which are caused by the same belief: that we know better than God.  The point of this story is to show that God is capable of single-handedly carrying out his plan of deliverance.  We, like the Israelites, are called to die to our natural reactions and be obedient to his plan, no matter how ridiculous it may seem.

In this lesson, we are looking at the story of Jonah.  I think everyone is familiar with most of this story (ch.1-3).  The issue is that the story keeps going into chapter 4, which really has the heart of the story of Jonah.  That you and are do not like that God is merciful and gracious to our enemies.  The book of Jonah invites us to realize that this is in fact a good thing because we are his enemies.

In this lesson we are continuing the series Christian Community: Lines in the Sand.  We’ll be looking at the type of relationship that can and should spring forth from Christian community: friendship.  We’ll look at different levels to friendship (in terms of proximity, not in terms of value), the necessity of friendships for Christian living (via Ecclesiastes 4:9-12), and how to find friends (which is to be the type of friend the Bible describes, which is only possible in Jesus).

Lines In The Sand - But Ya Gotta Have Friends

In this final lesson in our series Christian Community: Lines in the Sand, we’ll be looking at 1 Peter 2:11-2, 4:3-4, and 3:15-16 to think through what it means to be awkward.   Awkward simply means that someone or something is different than the cultural norms, which is exactly what Christians are called to be.  This lesson seeks to explore how we can be faithfully awkward by looking at what makes us awkward, how the world responds, and what awkwardness in real life looks like.

The Lord's Prayer: Learning from the Master - Our Father

In this lesson, we look at the fourth phrase of the Lord’s prayer, “Give us our daily bread.” Though this is in the middle of the Lord’s prayer, it’s typically where our desire to pray starts.  We have a need and we bring it to God.  This lesson will unpack the principle behind petitionary prayer, our problem with it, and how we can actually practice it.

The Lord's Prayer - Daily Bread

In this lesson, we are looking at one of the great gifts that the King of kings bestowed upon us: grace.  We’ll be in Ephesians 2:1-10 exploring our need for grace as well as how God lavishes it upon us and why.

New Year New You - Lesson 1

New Year New You - Lesson 3

In this lesson, we set out to clarify the point of marriage. It’s safe to say that we have an obsession with marriage. It’s a dominant fixation for teens and young adults. But with this fixation comes a distortion of what marriage is ultimately for. In this lesson, we’re seeking to clarify what marriage is for by looking at what marriage is not and what marriage is.  The ultimate goal of marriage is to be a reflection of God’s faithfulness to his people.

Seeking Clarity on a Blurry Topic - Marriage

In this lesson, we look at how viewing sexuality as a means to reflect God’s holiness impacts the way we view the opposite gender.  While Genesis 1 & 2 make the case that male and female together image God, we generally struggle with this while we’re single.  There is often gender segregation that takes place between guys and girls that is fueled by the assumption of romantic interest.  This lesson will push for a new paradigm, that of being brothers and sisters in the family of God.

Seeking Clarity On A Blurry Topic - Community

In this lesson, we are exploring what the Bible has to say about same-sex relationships.  The Bible talks about this in six places (three in the Old Testament, three in the New Testament).  We primarily are looking at Romans 1:24-32 with some glances at 1 Corinthians 6:9-11.  A couple of goals for this lesson: 1). Establish that acting on an attraction to someone of the same gender is a sin.  2). Showing that the root problem is not this particular expression of sin but what prompts it.  3). That Jesus really is the solution.

We make a huge deal about coming to trust in Jesus as your savior and king and rightfully so, but what exactly are we supposed to do after that? And we’re going to spend a few weeks talking about this but before we can do that, we really need to make sure that we’re on the same page when we use the word “believe”.  What we’re describing is our conversion where we acknowledge that we’re sinners, that Jesus took our punishment and died in our place, and accept him as our savior and king
