So, check your heart. Who are you following? Who do you put your hope in? What team are you on first? Be careful following any person who claims to be a savior, because they can sound like Jesus and they can try to look like Jesus, but that’s one of the ways we accidentally find ourselves on the wrong team. Remember, Jesus is speaking to His discip…

He came to build a different kind of kingdom and thought it was way more important than what we obsess over. " A God in a Bod thinks that there are things more important than healing our bodies, feeding our bellies, and defeating our enemies. What good is all that if your heart is still twisted, broken, and alienated from God?…

Jesus claims that everything … everything you can think of … every ounce of authority we can find strewn throughout this world … is subject to Him. Jesus says, "ALL authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." How much is … ALL? And what do we do about it? What’s the appropriate response? What am I supposed to do with that information? W…

So, Jesus looks at these 11 guys and says, “All authority … ALL authority … both in heaven and on earth … all authority has been given to me.” … So … How much is “all”? Seriously, how much is “all”? We use that word so flippantly. Do you think Jesus was using the word flippantly, or do you think he meant it? And if Jesus has “all” authority, how mu…

That idea may challenge you. Maybe you've always thought of religion as being restrictive, full of extra rules, tying you down with all these ways you have to live. Maybe you've thought of church as being like that. According to Paul, if you're a follower of Jesus, you should have … more freedom. Paul suggests our freest self is when we live most l…

Our relationship with God is based on our willingness to submit to Him. But our relationship with God is built on the fact that God was willing to submit to us, that God became man, and that He submitted to His creation for our benefit because our needs were more important than His needs.

"Do you know why Jesus washed our feet? Do you know why he died for us? He thinks we’re special. He really does. For some crazy reason, your Creator God thinks you are special.

You see, we have a faulty view of what it means to teach our “one another’s.” We make it into something it doesn’t have to be, and I believe those verses that we started with really, truly do apply to all of us. We are all responsible to teach our “one another’s.”So, I want to reset us to an appropriate perspective of what it means to teach. I want…

So, what do you think God thinks about words that kill? Proverbs says, “Words kill, words give life; they’re either poison or fruit—you choose.” (Proverbs 18.21) Does that mean God sees them as equal choices?

The word "burden" shows up a few different times in the New Testament, and it starts with this one moment with Jesus in Matthew Chapter 11.

This kind of hospitality, this offering of a friendship-love to strangers was kind of a big deal in a culture with all these nomads.

"Now, that word in Romans 12, where we started—that word "honor"—it's a Greek word. It looks like the word "time," but what it means is "prize." It can mean "value," it can mean "respect." It can mean "honor," and it can mean "recognition." I really like that word recognition because I think that gives us a good perspective of what honor is. Recogn…

"When Jesus says, “Love one another,” who is my one another? You see, this “agape” kind of love wouldn’t be so painfully difficult if the people in your life weren’t so painfully difficult. But you are surrounded by a bunch of sinners. If I got to pick my “one another,” maybe loving my “one another” wouldn’t be so hard. But … I don’t. If all my “on…

"Now, not everyone who is depressed will feel all of these descriptors; but they probably feel some of them. You feel down. You’re irritable, maybe. Maybe a sense of hopelessness. You’ve lost a sense of purpose. Those things you used to enjoy, you don’t enjoy them anymore. There’s this oppressive pessimism – everything is half-empty. Sadness, dejec…

"Anxiety and worry exist on a spectrum. At one end, you have worry and anxiety that are present but manageable … and even beneficial. They press us and push us to fulfill our responsibilities. They act as a prod to do our jobs well. But that's not the complete picture. I think that's a small piece of the picture. Anxiety and worry are usually not g…

"When we let that lie take root, it grows and grows until, eventually, we say, "You're unlovable." It's not that you're never going to be loved; you lie to yourself and think your problem is that you aren't worth loving. No one’s ever going to find you lovable. Eventually, that grows until you begin believing that you don't even love yourself. How …

It’s a word we all understand – “ruin.” Something was beautiful once, but no longer. It was useful once, valuable once, but no longer. It has been damaged and wrecked. It has been spoiled. You can ruin a shirt; you can ruin a phone; you can ruin a vacation; you can ruin a career; you can ruin a relationship; you can ruin a person. Have you ever rui…

"So, a lot of us … in fact, most of us, maybe … kind of put on these masks. And our masks usually look better on the outside than we feel on the inside, right? And we kind of fear that everyone around is as good on the inside as their masks look on the outside. So, when we compare our insides to their masks, we don’t look too good, we don’t feel to…

We talked about our hurts, and we …

"I don’t care whether you are a Boomer, a Gen Xer, a Millennial, a Zer, or even Gen Alpha … the questions are the same: Does your work life matter to God? Does how you work affect your life with God? Does God care? And if he does, should you? What do you think: Is work a necessary evil? Should our goal be to do as little as possible and get past it…

It's dangerous to be in a place where no one cares for you spiritually because it's incredibly easy to drift away from God. We need people in our corner to help pull us toward God.

"How many of you have been wounded? Not physically, but emotionally? … Yeah, that’s a universal, right? Emotional pain, spiritual pain, relational pain?

"Paul says, “I've learned the secret … to being content.” That feels a little bit like a letdown. Like, really? Is that a secret you've been trying to discover? Have you been actively pursuing contentment? Look, I think that we all want contentment. But we don't live like it. We live like contentment is right around the corner … and we never quite …

“Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.” There are times we fear that God has a sense of humor, right? But what if … what if he is serious? What if God meant them to be so? And what if there was a way to make it so? Not a guarantee but a strategy. What if there was a strategy for raising kids you can be proud of, for raising…

"How do I live like Jesus when it comes to disagreements? How do I live like Jesus when it comes to the ways in which we don't agree? And then, here's the big idea.

Let’s start with the word of the day, the question of the day, and the attitude of the day. • The word of the day is “agape.” There it is in the Greek: ἀγάπη. It means “love,” … but it’s a very special kind of love. We’ll get there. • The question of the day is, “What would agape do?” As Jesus followers, we need to ask this question: “What would ag…
