Redeemed: God's Providential Care 41:06

41:06

If we desire for God to give us a new beginning and to work in our life then there are two things that must work together: our faith and God's providence. We must put feet to our faith and we must trust that He is in control and His plans will not fail. These truths are illustrated in the story of Ruth.…

Ruth 1:6-22 -What do you do when you come to the realization that you have made some bad choices and are now facing the consequences of those choices? What do you do when you realize God has not left you but it was you who wandered away from God? What do you do when you are sitting in the pig pen of life and you come to your senses and realize that things are so much better back in your Father's house? Answer - you turn around and you go back home.…

Ruth 1:1-5 - Perhaps you have heard the expression - "sin will take you farther than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay and cost you more than you want to pay.” The first five verses of the book of Ruth present a real life example of this expression and serve as a warning to Christ followers not to fall into the same traps of sin.…

John 21:1-25 -The final chapter of John's Gospel reminds us that while Jesus is divine and the good news of the Gospel is from the very mind and heart of God, God uses frail human instruments to share His Good News with the world. God uses people to tell His redemptive story. Just as He called the disciples to take the Gospel to the whole world, so He has called us to take the Gospel to the nations. And just as the disciples had their fears and faults and frailties, we too are weak and fearful at times.…

John 20:19-31 - The resurrection of Jesus is the single most important truth to know, believe and embrace. The resurrection of Jesus is the linchpin to hope and without the resurrection there is no hope. John 20 teaches us to bring our sincere doubts to Jesus and He will prove His love for us.

The Call of a Deacon 11:57

1 Timothy 3:8-13 - Today as we ordain two men to the office of deacon in the church we turn to 1 Timothy 3:8-13 for instruction. Pastors and deacons are to work side by side in leading and serving the church. Deacons are to be an extension of the heart and the hand of the pastor. It is not incidental therefore that the character requirements to serve as a pastor in the church and to serve as a deacon in the church are virtually identical.…

John 19:14-30 - God's justice is righteous and fair, but his punishment for sin is complete. Scripture tells us that the payment for sin is death and that an acceptable sacrifice of blood is required. In John 19, we see Jesus pay the ultimate sacrifice - taking on the sins of the world in our place so that we may be forgiven. Join us as we dive into God's word to grasp the significance of Christ's sacrifice, the greatest gift ever given to mankind.…

John 18 - Mother Teresa once said that man should “give until it hurts.” She meant that we should give sacrificially in benevolence to help others. In John 18, there are five individuals who gave until it hurt. Jesus gave Himself away to help us gain what we could not earn, but four others gave away priceless treasures and opportunities in vain attempts to hold onto what they could not keep. All gave until it hurt.…
